Sims won´t try for a baby

★★★ Newbie

I think most functions in my game works. But when I want two sims to try for a baby, the action won´t happen. It´s like their arms are glitching, and then the action gets crossed out. I´ve tried moving the bed and changing it, but it won´t help. I downloaded some mods before it happened, but then deleted them. Maybe that´s what caused the issues? Anyways, I need help fixing the bug. Having babies is an important function for me in sims 4.

@Annikah2019 After deleting mods, did you also delete the file called localthumbcache? And does the action work in a different household?

@luthienrising If I delete the package, will all of my downloaded mods get deleted?

Re: Sims won´t try for a baby

@Annikah2019 No. The localthumbcache.package file is some short-term memory your game is holding. One of the things that can happen if you remove a mod from the Mods folder but don't delete that file is that the game can act like at least part of the mod is still in the Mods folder.

 

Here's how to test to find out if mods are causing your problem: vanilla testing. Drag the Mods folder to the desktop, delete the file called localthumbcache, open the game to test, and exit without saving. Exiting without saving means that your Sims don't lose their CC hair etc. next time you load that save. Your mods/CC will be safe in the folder on your desktop for you to put back in the new Mods folder.

 

You'll find some helpful info about how to manage your mods and CC in How to Use Mods and CC

@luthienrising Thanks for the tip, I tried it. But it still doesn´work. My sims only can sleep together, not make babies. Maybe it isn´t because of my mods then. Do you have any more tips on how I can fix it? I am desperate.

@Annikah2019 I'm going to move you to Game Issues. It's more likely that someone there has seen this.

Do you have any LastException files in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 ?

Best is to delete the ones you have, then trigger the error and check if new ones are created.

If that is the case, please upload them to a new post in this thread.

Please either create a .rar file to upload or copy/paste the content into your post.

Deleting the file won't fix your issue. Uploading the file is meant for troubleshooting.

Good Luck
