Whenever I try to plan a wedding event in the calendar menu (as it goes into the "plan an event" mode) the UI/visual seems to be messed up. It does not show the list of wedding events to plan, images, or the description. I can't select or see anything if I click the arrow button in the bottom right corner. This didn't start until the most recent patch on 3/15/22.

I currently do not have any mods in my game and I already tried to use the Origin "repair" function. Not sure where to go from here, so any help/advice is appreciated!

That pesky empty blue screen is no more! You’ll be able to plan wedding events through the phone or calendar now that the menus show up as intended

Fixed in Patch 1.96.365/1.71

If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

@simlightened Does it also happen on a new save after you removed you rmods (and deleted localthumbcache) ?

[twiggy84]

Not a fix but a workaround; going to the location you want the event at and then planning it there works. Had the same exact screen as you trying to plan a Bach party and I just ended up going to the nightclub. Hope this helps.

@twiggy84 Is this on a game without mods ?

[twiggy84]

It is not. 

[crinrict]

@twiggy84 Could you test without mods ?

[twiggy84]

Sure, will do when I get home today. I should mention that since I did this it has worked as it's supposed to every time after. Did the workaround by taking my female sim's group to the location then planning there but I've done a Rehearsal Dinner, Wedding and Reception since, one planned through the calendar and the other two through the phone and everything has worked as it's supposed to.

So sorry for my delay in reply! I plan on trying this out later today, and will update on whether the workaround works for my game!

I have had the same problem 

I want to have the event at my house so how do I plan the event from there?

My mods are all updated and none is causing this problem. I have the same issue. This game is just a piece of *. They put zero effort into quality control. It’s absolutely disgusting how buggy this pack is and how little they fix with patches. The EAs response is blame it on the mods. Well it’s not the mods. In my experience mods is why this effing game is even running. So if anyone knows a mod that can fix this I’d appreciate it. Because 60% of my mods are just game fixes at this point. Mods that fix every pack except for maybe 1 or 2 that ever came out. Quality is just getting worse with each pack. Bugs, stupid design and glitches are just piling on. And the game every time goes: did you try without mods, and my answers always is yes. It works even worse. The only thing the devs at ea care about is if looks pretty. It doesn’t work but you can look at it.
