Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? Not known
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Holiday
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Sim editing
What happens when the bug occurs? I cannot change sims from roommate to family, hindering the relationship options
What do you expect to see? I expect to be able to change a sims' relationship from roommate to family. (sister/brother)
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? Neutral/Not Sure
I've made three sims so far, each are to be siblings. However, when I move to the list where the relationship status will change from roommate to brother/sister, it simply says I cannot change the status of a pre-existing sim. I've tried various other ways, but none work. Pre-existing? I just want to show that they're family.

Were the Sims freshly created or had they already been in your game?
Once the Sims have been in live mode the relationships cannot be alter in CAS without a cheat.

I had just downloaded the game and made them

But if I have to edit them, do I have to delete the sims and remake them?

Good Luck

I wouldn't feel comfortable sharing such a thing. I've already made an idea to resolve it. If it doesn't work, oh well
