The Sims 4 Dream Home Decorator - Before & After Photos Issue

[robottiger08]

I can't find an option from my Sim's phone to take before or after photos. How did you do that?

Under the Career tab (the Briefcase) on the phone.

Thanks so much for mentioning UI cheats! I’m having the same problem and that fixed it.

@TerahWatson Thanks. Tested that. The task worked for me with no issues. Still had lot of cc removed on your save. Did you test without any at all ?

Are you guys just taking photos or clicking on the Sim/Floor and choose take before photos ?

[SimplyShandy]

I'm clicking on the sim/floor/phone/camera and choosing "Take Before" photos. I've tried it every which way and it never marks the task as completed.

I tried this on 2 different sims with 0 photography skill and it didn't work, but that was with mods and CC installed. So I moved my mods/cc folder and am trying with a brand new save to see if I can replicate the issue.

[PrismaDragons76]

The issue seems to be mod/cc related for me as I could not replicate the issue without mods/cc.
