[OPEN] [SE] Active/In Progress lifestyles greyed out on Lifestyle pop-up

[ Edited ]
★★★★★ Novice

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.77.146.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? SE, Uni, Season, City, GT ; Magic, Vamps, Parent, Dine ; Knitting, Tiny, Laundry
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Click on 'view lifestyles' in the sim's profile tab.
What happens when the bug occurs? The lifestyle tab will pop up, but all of them will be grayed out - even the ones the sim has or is in progress of. Happens nearly every time I attempt to view the menu.
What do you expect to see? The lifestyles my sim has should show up on the menu.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Need some help fixing this issue

Hi @sofdege 

 

the in progress ones look fine for me but my active ones are also greyed out

You say it happens nearly every time you use the menu. Does it change for the same Sim what is greyed out for you or does it depend on the Sim you check ?

Good Luck

I went in and played some other households I have and they too have the greyed out issue. The times that the menu did work were so random and didn't seem to correlate to any specific sim or household, but rather just occasionally showed up.

@crinrict 
I also noticed this problem yesterday.

Lifestyles that are in progress are colored and the active ones are gray

 

I am of the opinion that it was still normal before the patch from 20.07

@sofdege I have this issue too - even in different save games. For me I noticed it during the eco lifestyle trial but I hadn't played for a while before that so it could have been an issue before downloading that trial & I just didn't notice. I've tried repairing the game but that doesn't work - active lifestyles are still grey, I have never put a mod or customization on this game.

I have noticed this too. Active lifestyles grey, in progress Lifestyles colored. I am pretty sure active lifestyles were also colored before, but I am not 100% sure.

Same problem.

In fact Active lifestyles are not washed-out-but-still-colored like Inactive lifestyles, they are completely greyed out like Hidden lifestyles.
(I had the lifestyles disabled in my game for a long time, enabled after recent patch, the problem is there).

Active and In progress should be fully colored.
Inactive - washed out.
Hidden - greyed out.


My sim has Indoorsy fully unlocked and Active.

Lifestyle Doesn’t Become Bright When Active

★★★★★ Apprentice

This has happened in several games now, where my Sim unlocks a lifestyle (this time it’s Workaholic and People Person) and they have active written underneath but are actually greyed out.

 

I’m playing on Mac with no mods or custom content. I have all packs.
