The relationship bars (green, red and pink) have been greyed out. I don't think that the actual relationships have been affected.

As you can see, they are still going very strong. just not showing the relationship strength.

I can't properly assess relationship status with sims.
Edit:
I thought I had solved this issue by entering another household and then exiting without saving, but it seems to be something else. At the moment it seems random. If I exit the game and restart a couple hours later, the relationship bars may or may not be all grey. Restarting it may or may not fix it. Restarting the computer seems to also have no effect. It's very annoying to have to spend 20 minutes restarting the game multiple and trying to figure out a pattern!

When did this happen ? After patching ? Are you using mods in your game ?

Edit: This did not work.

I solved this issue by simply going into another plot household, checking to see that the colour had returned to the relationship bars, and then exiting to the main menu WITHOUT saving and going back to my original household.
I am using the mosaic removal mod, but this problem persisted even when I removed it and restarted. I've had this game for only 3 days.

Probably just a display glitch then.
Thanks for the feedback

As you can see from my edit above, this problem has persisted.

Hm.
Could you start a new game for testing purposes to see if you have the issue there too.
This is to figure out if it's save game or installation related.

I think that I've isolated it to the lighting under graphics options. If I play the game on general high graphics, but set lighting to low, the relationship bars return upon restart. If I turn lighting back to medium or higher, the relationship bars fade to grey once again. I'm hesitant to say this is the solution, however, and I will give it a couple days to see if it really worked.
I'm playing on a Macbook 2011.

Might be a mac issue. Did you try asking in the mac forum over at the official forum ?

@mightygroove Could you try repairing your game through Origin ?
