[Polidori017]

Product: The Sims 4

What is your current game version number? 1.47.49.1020

What do you expect to see? This moodlet expiring as per normal
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

My sim is stuck with a confident moodlet (confident after successful interrogation). 

It currently means I cannot complete the Positivity Challenge because I can't be Happy
I have deleted my cache files.
I have repaired the game via Origin
I have restarted it multiple times
She has moved house
This is the sim I have put 100s of hours into so not using her is not an option
Now that the cheat that would have fixed this has been disabled please tell me how I can fix this

Best thing to do is use TexiMexis Cheat Fix. You can enable the cheats with that again.

Since you don't seem opposed to mods, I would try that.

Hi @Polidori017

did you have any luck solving the issue with my suggestion ?

[Polidori017]

It did indeed work perfectly.

Apologies for the delay in my reply. I had to travel for work which is extra cruel when a new Sims pack has just come out.

Thank you so much and thank you for all the years of help you have provided.  You are a legend!

Hi,

Do we have a fix for those who don't use mods??

Never used a mod in my life and I don't plan to start now just because EA decided to disable the cheat.

I can't seem to find one anywhere.

Thanks,

@ShelleAmanda Which moodlet do you have stuck ?

Sometimes they go away when you travel.

Best is to report the ones that get stuck in the bug forum, so the issues can be fixed.

Other than that, there's no solution.

Hi,

It was the flirty moodlet.  It sorted itself out eventually.

I tried everything from restarting the game, resetting the sims, travelling to other towns, clearing my cache (which I had only just done due to another bug) and repairing the game. 

Once I’d done everything besides deleting my save. I decided I would try the mod. 

I changed the game options to enable to mods and customs content, restarted my game. Thought I’d check it again before I added the Mod to the game. Low and behold the moodlet was gone. 4th time restart and it works. Like wtf! 😂

I get that EA have decided that some cheats/codes shouldn’t be available to us as players and for the most part they’re probably right, however that particular one seems a bit silly to disable.

Still happening, and if you don't have the luxury of owning a gaming PC, EA doesn't care that you wasted $500 on a broken game. This issue is unfixable for PS4.

@BeautyBot which one do you have stuck ?

I'm a PS4 player too and I now have the friend balance crashing moodlet stuck and it won't go away. My sims doesn't even have that lifestyle but she's constantly tense and nothing is working. I hate this so much!
