Re: First Two Sims missing Two Fame Points

★★★★ Novice

Just got the bug today on Xbox One, didn't know I was supposed to get a fame point and a quirk at notable newcomer until I read into it. I did however get 2 fame points for reaching Rising Star, but still no fame point or quirk from Notable Newcomer.

Re: Sim not always getting points for fame perks upon gaining a rank

Same here. The sim wasn't in the athletics career when it happened though, but a student who gained a fame point from soccer juggling skills.

 

Trying to recall, but I don't tnink she did anything but that to gain fame. She is now between terms and has joined the athletics career though.

The sim I have that this is happening to also started in the athlete career. He chose the chance card option that gave him fame (only level 1, Notable Newcomer) and was fired from his job. When he earned enough fame to become level 2, Rising Star, I never received a notification, he never received his fame points or unlocked a new quirk slot, although it did count for his fame aspiration (that’s the only reason I knew he’d gone up a level). Getting a celebrity cleanse did not restore the missing fame points, unlock the second quirk slot, or cleanse him of his first quirk, although it did let me choose how to re-spend his first and only fame point.

 

*EDITED* I tried the testingcheats true, then decreasing celebrity level and increasing celebrity level, and that gave him the two missing fame points.

 

Here is a link to the save file before I "fixed" the bug using the cheats above: https://www.dropbox.com/s/67bk4f87ddpy176/JordanS243_Save_Slot_0000000c.zip?dl=0. You can see by looking at the adult male's celebrity panel that he only has one fame point spent and none available despite being level 2. 

I play with CC and mods, but the bug persisted with them removed.

I just had this happen to me  last week.  Going from 3 star to 4.  The only  reason  I knew it happened is because the fame panel star glowed green. There was n notification,  no points, and no celebrity glow.

I still have this problem but it seems that the problem isn't just not getting no fame points after reaching another celebrity level but the new fame level isn't even recognised correctly. 

My sim went from celebrity level 3 to celebrity level 4 without getting points but also my sim didn't get the glow or the celebrity walk ( not only not the option to turn it off/on but no glow or walkstyle at all) but the next level of the "skilltree" is unlocked.

 

I installed this mod acting pays: modthesims.info/download.php?t=632165 afterwards which increases the payment actors get and my sim got paid like they where celebrity level 3.

 

So I used the testingcheats enabled cheat and decreased my sims celebrity level from 4 to 3 and then increased it back from 3 to 4 and now I properly unlocked the glow/walkstyle and with the mod my sim gets paid the right amount for an level 4 celebrity.

 

I'm not sure how to reproduce the bug but what is happening is that my sims gets above the threshold which would result in leveling up to the next celebrity level but instead they get stuck at the current level but then as soon as I travel to another lot or save and restart my game they get that level up but without the game registering that level up.
