Re: Teen Sim Not Getting Third Trait When Aged Up

@CGK90  I've merged your post with the master thread for this issue.  If you're willing to share, EA is looking for saves from affected players.  More details are earlier in the thread:

No traits or aspiration popup available for teen upon aging up to young adult

★★★★★ 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? 1.108.335.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All expansion packs except for Lovestruck, all game packs. Stuff Pack: Paranormal, Nifty Knitting, Tiny Living, Moschino, Toddler, Vintage Glamour, Kids Room, Romantic Garden, Spooky, Luxury Party Kits: Courtyard Oasis Kit, Industrial Loft Kit, Blooming Rooms Kit, Decor To The Max Kit, Moonlight Chic Kit, Greenhouse Haven Kit, Castle Estate Kit
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a teen sim trying to age up using the blowing birthday candles option.
What happens when the bug occurs? When the teen sim blows the birthday candles they age up to young adult but the popup that allows you to choose new trait and aspiration for the young adult sim does not pop up. The popup that shows if the teen has graduated with or without honor also does not appear.
What do you expect to see? I expect the popup that allows me to choose new trait and new aspiration for the young adult to pop up. A popup regarding if the sim has graduated with or without honor should also show up.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I've tried several times with my teenage sim using blow out birthday candles to age up, I have restarted the game several times but every time I load the game and when the teen sims has blown the birthday candles not only the popup that allows you to choose new aspiration and trait does not show up, but also the popup that informs you if your sim has graduated with or without honor also does not appear.

@abcheung1105 This is happening to me too and it happened after the base game got an update on 7/23 because I didn't have this issue before. I made a post but someone merged it in a thread that started in 2022. However, I feel like the bug I'm experiencing is related to the new update so I'm not sure how likely they are going to fix the issue for everyone. I just hope the SimDirect team sees the post about the aging up issue.

Here's the thread btw!

The same thing happened to me, but the character values in the parenthood pack don't show up either when they are definitely in range to get it when aged up.

I have this problem since the 7/26 update. I don't know how the updates affect the game, but I don't have that problem in all my saves prior to that update

Ok so i tested it out on a new game I made on 7/25 and I'm not having the issue on that game file. Therefore, the issue is only happening on my older/main game file. However, a temporary fix would be doing the cas.fulleditmode cheat and adding a third trait on cas if you are mostly concerned about your sim not having a third trait. I also don't want to rely on doing that every time I want to age up a teen sim. Another thing is that I do not have any sims who maxed on character values from parenthood, so I don't know if those would also transfer over.

@abcheung1105 @Linebebe24 @n1kk11rv4n1 @scottybeans @Funebriss  Would you be willing to provide a save for the Sims team to use in its investigation?  More details here:
