Nederlands How often does the bug occur? Every time 100% What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Luxury Party, Perfect Patio, Cool kitchen, Spa. Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have a Sim have the author aspiration completed so he can write the Book of Life, bind it and write an epic sage before killing the Sim that is bind to the book. What happens when the bug occurs? The Book of Life doesn't work as reported in this topic: What do you expect to see? I only test play after reading that topic. I could write the Book of Life and bind it. After that I killed a Sim with MC CC. The option to summon this Sim was there but didn't work. I also killed another Sim again errors , after binding the Book of Life to this Sim first. This time, the Book didn't have the option to summon. I also tried a pre-patch game because I saw rosemow suggested that earlier. This game was from June and has not been played or saved after the current patch. Again I could write the Book and bind it but after killing the Sim again with errors, already reported it to DP , she just walked out of the lot and her picture disappeared from the user panel. No option to summon her. Reading her epic story also spawns an last exception. So this test was a fail too. Have you installed any customization with the game, e. Custom Content or Mods? Yes Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes Please describe the patch or change you made. Based on that topic, I assume patch 1. But technically for me it's not possible to know for sure because I haven't played with the Book of Life prior to this patch. The last time I played with it, was many patches ago. Those time it worked as it should. I play Windows 10 - 64 bit. Good Luck and Happy Gaming Crin I don't work or have any association with EA. Questions belong in the forums.

Basically I went to bed with The Book of Life working, woke up and patched the game, loaded my save, and there is no option to read The Book of Life anymore. This is for live sims as I don't age mine. The only options are to put them in world or to put them away if there is a bookshelf. Tried re-writing and re-binding, deleting all books, bookshelves, and computers and repairing and re-writing, and nothing helped. Basically for this entire saved game I cannot create one and bind it to any sim that can use it. Very frustrating, please fix. I have no custom content whatsoever, and a system with great specs, 64-bit, Windows 10. I have most of the packs except the parenting and toddler stuff. I also got the option to write epic saga on one of the books by a sim who did not write that book. Was not usable though, just like all the others.

Probleme gehören ins Forum I started playing my current save file in early October 2017 , at which point my main Sim was a toddler. Her mother completed the bestselling author aspiration, wrote a book of life, and bound it to her daughter. The daughter then took her own Book of Life with her when she moved out and into an apartment. Her then-boyfriend live-in had it in his inventory for a while in case of an emergency , but when they broke up, I gave it back to her. Finally, I ended up giving her Book of Life to her husband who had it ever since. My main Sim then completed the Bestselling Author aspiration herself and wanted to give her husband his own Book of Life with plans to bind additional volumes to their future children. At this point the family had moved to Brindleton Bay, so I know for sure that it was after the November 7 patch. However, I cannot say for sure when I last checked her Book of Life prior to writing his- - I could have sworn that I checked it just before she wrote his, but I remember that their life was incredibly hectic at the time and she barely had time to write the Book of Life, so it's entirely possible that I, feeling confident after checking her Book many times over her lifetime, forgot to check. Regardless, I had her write and bind the book to him. I deleted both books and had her write another one-- with the same result she then published it and never earned any royalties on it-- I'm not sure if this is part of the issue or simply what happens when you publish a bound book of life. I'm not sure if this is relevant, but I think the only CC that I am actually using in their house is some clutter objects and wall art no bookshelves, desks, computers, chairs, sofas, etc.
