Hi @alanmichael1

 

I've tested this on my game and I get the option.

 

Could you try with another Sim ?

Good Luck

I just tried this out myself and experience the same thing - there is no singing voice track for "Hush Now My Love" on the piano.

 

I get the option to Sing Song on the piano and my sim plays the song and I hear the music, but she doesn't sing while playing it. It's not just a missing audio file, the sim doesn't do lip movement either - they're not singing anything at all.

 

Tested the comparison with another song, such as "Tomorrow, Today" and the sim plays the piano and sings with voice for that one.

 

I was using Cassidy Purdue and she has the "lilted" tone voice type. She's level 6 piano and level 4 singing skill. I was using the DigiRAD Keyboard.

 

EDIT: I just tried it again using a Tickle My Ivories Grand Piano at a community lot and it works - she actually sings using that one. She also levelled up to Singing level 5 since last time though. So perhaps it's just missing voice for particular pianos/skill levels?

 

What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get To Work, Get Together, City Living, Outdoor Retreat, Spa Day, Parenthood, Dine Out, Fitness Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Perfect Patio Stuff, Luxury Party Stuff

@simvasion 

Thank you for testing and confirming my bug Standard smile. The problem is that the "bad voice version" is not played together with the piano unless singing and piano skill are 5 or higher (then the "good version" is playing).

 

The good news is that they didn't forget to record the bad version - it's available when your Sim is singing without piano. So this glitch should be easy to fix.

I'm guessing I misunderstood the issue. I thought you didn't have the option at all.

 

This goes back to my to test list.
