[NEEDS SAVES] [CoL] Foxes don’t move from spawn point

[ Edited ]
★★ Novice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.77.131.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All but spooky stuff and journey to batuu (Star Wars one)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just load a lot and play for a little while. Doesn’t seem to be happening to everyone but some peoples chickens or rabbits are doing it.
What happens when the bug occurs? The foxes all just spawn on my lot and then stay there, they don’t run around or try to steal my chickens eggs etc. More will just keep spawning there (most I’ve had there is 7 all at once in one spot and some on top of eachother)
What do you expect to see? The foxes should be freely moving around my lot, attempting to steal eggs etc.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. The cottage living patch / pack

@Emzox There is a report for rabbits getting stuck but that sounds a bit different from this report. To be sure, you tested this without mods/cc installed and have the same thing happening ?

Make sure to also repair your game and delete the locathumbcache file.

Good Luck

@crinrict Same issue. Foxes and rabbits will not go onto my lot. l They just stand on the outside , gather, and die. ha

Hi there! I also have this issue. I thought I'd pop in and share a quick video. I haven't tried other lots, but I have tried without mods, still have my CAS cc in, though. Also have reshade installed although I don't think that matters. Here's the video!

Hey!! Thanks so much for responding, yeah I tried without all mods/cc etc and I always delete my localthumbcache file before opening my game but I haven’t tried repairing the game. I’ll get on and try that and let you know. Thank you!

@pettimadame Could you upload the video to youtube or google/one drive ? It's just too small when uploaded here.

Good Luck

Hey again Crin, so I’ve repaired my game etc, tried again with no mods and cc and they are still spawning but not moving form that point outside my lot. I’ve also just clocked one of the bunnies that has ‘help with garden’ enabled has stopped helping and is in fact also stuck to a certain spot on my lot.

I don't actually use one drive or youtube but I uploaded another video to mediafire. This time I did a game repair & deleted all cache files. Still not using any mods.

Hi again! I just thought I would add that I found a solution to this issue, at least for myself! I deleted my options.ini file (and also the resource.cfg from my mods folder again) but deleting the options.ini seemed to work! I redid all my settings, and now foxes are running around my lot. May be worth trying! Standard smile
