What do you expect to see? A response from Maxis not Dinky
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.

So my sim produced and burned a track. I sent the track to a high end label (Maxis something), then I got a response in the mail from Dinky Beats saying no... Then I got a call from someone at Dinky Beats asking to sign my sim. I accepted... Now all tracks are veing released under New Taskmasters... I am really confused
Can anyone help?
Also I have never heard from Maxis......(machine?) Even though I have sent quitr a few tracks their way (my sim has maxed the skill btw)
Thanks!

I have a similar issue, where everything says it was released under Tastemasters, regardless of which of the three labels I released under.
Worse still, I eventually get dropped by them all. I check my phone for updates. Tracks are regularly created by me and released. The notification wall says they hit Simify and my label will be pleased. But I still "time out" with all three labels and get dropped. On the royalties notification, those tracks which were the latest to be released successfully never show up, but there are many older ones still receiving 20-30 simoleons each day.
Maybe there is a maximum and I have exceeded it? Who knows.

Yes my latest songs and even videos are not showing up in the royalty report...

Ah, I see. So there is a limit, even if that is only a bug. Books, videos, these things cycle out and you have to add fresh content. Maybe that's the problem with tracks. They never go off the list.

Hi guys!
We have not been able to reproduce the issue were tracks submited to a specific label seem to be picked by a different one.
Is anyone still experiencing this issue? Would you be willing to share your save files with us?
Thanks a lot!
