Re: Moonwood Mill map and selection is there twice

Also I found out there is a Mod that may be causing this issue too, when trying to fix my friend’s game. The mod is from Waronk file called Waronk_SkateScooter_Complete. I will be reaching out to the creator.

I am having this same issue and I tried all the suggestions including @crinrict's suggestion of resetting the game files. It fixed the issue for the new save that I made but sadly did not fix it for the save I have actually been playing in. I am repairing the game right now to see if that fixes it but I am not hopeful.

Re: Moonwood Mill map and selection is there twice

@barbedwirebutch  Just make a backup copy of the saves you want to experiment with.  That way, even if you completely bork the saves, you can revert to the previous copies with no (more) harm done.

 

For the sims that have already been turned, you may want to use a mod or an in-game method to turn them human again, at least until you get this sorted out.

Re: Two Moonwood Mill worlds?

Try a super repair - https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-Mac/READ-FIRST-Sims-4-Mac-Help-Guides-and-Troubleshooting...

Does it actually affect gameplay at all?

well, it affects gameplay in the sense that i can't visit the new world. i don't know which is the "correct" world, and i don't want to cause problems later on down the line.

@barbedwirebutch

Does it also happen in a new save for you?

@Bluebellflora it doesn't. but removing all mods and cc also doesn't fix it in my actual save. from what i have gathered from other people with this problem, the suggested repairs do not work on your active save that has the problem. whatever save you first played when you first downloaded the pack has the problem.

Duplicate Worlds

★★★ Newbie

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
What is your current game version number? 1.89.214.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Cottage Living, Snowy Escape, Eco Lifestyle, Discover University, Island Living, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get To Work, Werewolves, My Wedding Stories, Dream Home Decorator, Realm Of Magic, Strangerville, Jungle Adventure, Parenthood, Vampires, Dine Out, Outdoor Retreat, Paranormal, Nifty Knitting, Tiny Living, Moschino, Laundry Day, Vintage Glamour, Backyard, Kids Room, Movie Hangout, Spooky, Cool Kitchen, Little Campers Kit, Moonlight Chic Kit, Decor To The Max Kit, Blooming Rooms Kit, Industrial Loft Kit, Bust The Dust Kit, Country Kitchen Kit
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Werewolves game pack and Cottage Living
What happens when the bug occurs? there are 2 Moonwood Mill worlds so I have duplicates of many Sims that came with the Werewolves pack and in Cottage Living the second ribbon for milk, wool, eggs, pie, flowers does not get added to my Sims inventory or house inventory
What do you expect to see? I would like to not have duplicates of the same worlds or Sims and I would like to see the second ribbon for the fair not glitch and be added to the Sims inventory or house inventory
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

With the second ribbon from the fair in Cottage Living its not a make or break thing it is just annoying when you bake a pie, or bring wool, or milk, etc and then not even have a mention if you came in second place or last or not at all is weird, it worked when it first came out and then the next patch update after it never seemed to end up working.

And the double Moonwood Mill is self explanatory, there's also duplicate Sims, makes it confusing.
