Now, I've never experienced this problem before- and it seems as though no one else has. I don't know how this happened, but somehow I am missing actions.

I've been playing the Sims 2 for a long while now. And my computer has just recovered from a horrendous wipe, and I decided to install my games again (All EPs), and I don't know if it was just where I didn't realize the "propose" action was missing for my sims, or if it just went and disappeared.

So unbeknownst, I set up a couple (the old fashioned way, forgetting the boolprop). And their relationships are both at 100 now, but cannot engaged, nor can my sims ask one another out on a date (or ask anything for that matter).

Thank you for reading this, and I look forward to your help.

Sincerely,
Mircelle

  • General - Do the Game Problem FAQ
    You appear to have not gone through our main Game Help:Game Problemwiki FAQ. Please go through and do the steps on this FAQ, including any others that it links to (for example the Game Help:Game Problem-Problem Custom Contentwiki FAQ).

    Usually, in the vast majority of cases, actually going through and doing the steps (doing, not just reading) fixes issues - sometimes you may be asked to remove custom content, or to patch - please rest assured that all of our FAQs have been tested by our staff and volunteers and we wouldn't suggest you do something unless it's been known to fix particular issues.

99% of the time, this is caused by CC. :)

As a secondary point, did you patch all the EPs? Some of them? None of them?

Ah, thank you. And no I have not patched any of them. In the past, they worked fine without the patches. The game had all of the actions before it was wiped. I almost think there was a problem in the game's installation (I really hope not) but I will attempt to back up my game and go through the steps as you've suggested.

Thank you,
Mircelle

A problem with the installation is unlikely, but not impossible - the game problem FAQ includes methods of finding out whether or not the installation is at fault.

I would recommend patching, especially if you have later EPs like Bon Voyage - there are lots of bugfixes in there, and it's better to patch now and never have problems in future.
