Re: MAC user Cats & Dogs create a pet stencil not working at all ... nothing

Stencils in Create a Sim (Pet) now consistently paint your furry friends without crashing.

Fixed in Patch 1.68.154/ 1.33

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

Bugged out dogs ever since september patch. COMPLETELY GAME-BREAKING.

I'm having a huge issue with the game ever since the september patch. When I try to customize dogs (using the painting thing) this happens. Specifically when I use these little stencil things shown below. It also crashes the game not long after. I tried repairing the game and I don't use any custom content or mods. Please help.

Hi @RyuzakiChild,

Unfortunately, bugs don't work like that. Investigating them and patching for them takes time and that time will differ from bug to bug. Further, when a bugs been successfully patched the Sims team will announce this in their Patch notes.

So what this means is there is no time frame anyone can offer you for bug issues and when we communicate fixes for them, it will usually be through the community patch notes (unless there's more information we need to gather in the thread to investigate.).

Please keep this in mind for again.

Thanks,

@EA_Lanna So I just get to sit around with an unplayable game until y'all decide it's worth fixing? Ridiculous.
