Duplicated this bug.  EA, please fix the Front Desk object so all standard computer options are available.

Problem with computers' menu options, tested with no Mods

★★★ Novice

Tested the game with no mods and I still have the issue with a particular household. I have a Programmer and an Astronaut in it, and the computer pie menu has very limited options, such as order stuff, social networks and salvage parts. All other options are gone, and the problem is in that particular household, tested one with an artist and a scientist and computers work fine there. I have the impression it's career related. And it's sad because it's my Simself household Devil

 

Here´s the lastexception code, added it as an attachment too so whoever wants to download it, can do it easily.

Would you be willing to share your save with me ?

If so, please zip your saves folder and upload it somewhere like dropbox, mediafire, googledrive or OneDrive and PM me the link.

★★ 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 expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Seasons, pets, get to work, city living, vintage glamor stuff, dine out
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? When in live mode, click on a computer.
What happens when the bug occurs? When clicking on a computer, Sims cannot do anything on it except for "order..." and "Social Networking...". Before a recent update, the computers in the game would display all of the options, including "practice typing", "write a book" "order", "social networking", "browse", etc.
What do you expect to see? All of the other functions on the computer should be listed, when I click on a computer to use in live mode.
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? No

Hi @Danana1997

 

they still work without issues for me

 

  • Try repairing the game through Origin
  • Try selling the computer and get a new one
