Hello, I'm new to this website so I don't know if im doing this right but I'm having these issues. There are a few interactions on the wedding arch that are completely blank or are just 3 dots. This ONLY happens to wedding archs If its during a wedding ceremony from my wedding stories. This also dosen't happen to anything else in the game apart from the wedding archs during wedding ceremonies. I tried everything, taking off mods and repairing, starting a new clean save file because I thought mine was corrupted by mods, uninstalling and installing and then creating a new save file with no mods. Nothing worked so I'm assuming this is the game's fault and not mine, anyone know any fixes? I tried the methods listed in this thread but none worked so far

Missing strings for the new added MWS interactions.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? German + French
How often does the bug occur? 100%
What is your current game version number? 1.109.207.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? At least MWS
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?

Plan a Wedding Stories wedding with a different language as English and play it.

What happens when the bug occurs? Language strings are missing
What do you expect to see? seeing what should be there written and not *…*

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?

Patch PC: 1.109.185.1030 / Mac: 1.109.185.1230

 

Ah yes... This is by design:

 

The text of these new interactions above will be translated into all supporting languages in an upcoming release.

 

It would be nice if the hero knew this and would write this to people which report this. Not all people read patch notes. Pro tip: Just deliver features already with the correct language strings. EA/Maxis is not an indie studio, at least I hope they are not.
