[S] Sims Getting Trophies For Non Goaled Parties Thrown on Holidays

[greensimmers]

One of my saves has been doing the same thing. I also have no cc or mods installed. The difference is that this occurs for all un-goaled events, not only those on Holidays. Has anyone found or seen a solution?

Apologies if I didn't follow a certain formatting in my reply -- I've never used the forum before.

I have a new teen Sim (started before the latest patch) and I only tried to age her up first time today. After organizing her birthday party, she received the bronze award for the party even though I had chosen unranked social event. This feels like a glitch or an exploit that should not happen.

@KnightGoblin8 Is it just for birthday parties or all parties ?

I tested the birthday party and did absolutely nothing and didn't get an award.

Is it for birthday parties only for you or all of them ? Did you blow out candles at the party ?

[KnightGoblin8]

@crinrictSo far I was only able to test it with birthday party. The Sim blew out the candles at the party so maybe that made the difference? I forgot to mention that it was also the Winter Holiday but that is not a ranked event anyway.

[crinrict]

@KnightGoblin8 I tested with new year event present so that's probably not it.

Could you test again without doing anyways ?

Was the blowing out candles successful or did you have a reset ?

[KnightGoblin8]

@crinrictI will test that later today. I guess might need to start a new save as for that Sim the even is now marked bronze.

The blowing out candles reset the Sim initially multiple times after which I quit the game. After I restarted the game (the event was still going) blowing out candles worked as it was supposed to.

@KnightGoblin8 I wonder if the birthday cake issue is related to this. Would be good if you could also test a different event.

[KnightGoblin8]

@crinrict Ok I will do that. Thanks for the suggestion.

I tried hosting an unranked House Party and Spooky Party. Ending both prematurely before the timer ran out still gave me the bronze award for each social event.

[crinrict]

@KnightGoblin8 did you end them all prematurely ? I let it finish maybe that's the difference ?

[KnightGoblin8]

@crinrict I did! I guess I could try to let the timer run out too. I'll try that right away.
