Grim reaper won't leave

[JennaFlare]

What's happening to me right now is that the grim reaper appeared to take someone away, his wife pleaded for his life, and now he won't leave. I've tried the debug and it does not work.

Did you try resetting the Sim that was supposed to die ?

[stephrt82]

I'm shift-clicking, but debug doesn't come up.

[crinrict]

use resetsim like in Sims 3

Although I've enabled testing cheats, shift+click is not available and resetssim doesn't work either. The game is just frozen. Game cannot be saved. Attempting to exit to main menu without saving causes the game to crash.

I have only experienced this bug since buying a outdoor retreat and get to work packs.

Does your dying Sim have a lot of stuff in their inventory ? If so, try emptying it a bit beforehand.

[karen1573]

Yes, she did. On this occasion I just deleted her from the household, but I'll try emptying his/her inventory next time.

The same is happening to my game every time a Sim dies!

I seem to have an invisible Grim Reaper on my lot. They talk to him, the lights don't go off because is there, but I don't see him.

I got that issue at the moment,  at first sim was dying of old age, had wife plea for life and he accepted it too like 10-20 mins for him  to bring her back to life, 

next day sim dies again, got one last woohoo in first , and the sim just lay there dead on the floor and the GR did his thing with the pad, I couldn't plea again 

I did the testingcheats true and reset the dying sim and he turned into an urn, by tall dark and grim-son just stands there, before he explored the house watching tv looking and my collection, this time he just stand there and I can't reset him or interact with him but I can save will see what happens after sim goes to work ( science career ) 

Sims 4 base

Get to work

Outdoor Retreat <---buggy

had removed most of the stuff she had as I didn't know if I looses it when she dies 

I can go to chess table and play with grim reaper but he doesn't come over

after changing lot: he is gone, so after resetting dying sim you should be able to save the ether restart game or just change to a different lot  

hope this sheds some info happy simming
