Default [SOLVED] Having issues with Lilith Pleasant
I'm currently playing as Lilith Pleasant, but i found problems. I've sent her to college and she's now an adult, and I found....problems with her:

1) She is currently at Level 9 of her Journalism job. It's been two days since she's promoted on the 9th level of her job and somehow, the game just....refuses to promote her? I did get a chance card and picked a positive one, but all it did was giving her a bonus. I got the job from the newspaper and constantly gets promotions before reaching level 9. Moved her out from the lot but it just keeps happening.

2) She seems to unable to initiate WooHoo interactions in bed? Whenever I make her woohoo with a person, I have to make said person selectable and make them woohoo with her. Weirdly enough, she *can* initiate WooHoo in hot tubs and cars.


I am inclined to believe that this is a CC problem but these issues are only found in Lilith Pleasant. Angela is all fine, for some reason.
What should I do? Should I look into her character file in SimPE? Thank you

I'd blame her parents myself! Anybody brought up as badly as Lilith is bound to have issues. Despite all the success she's had in life, deep in her heart Lilith still believes that Angela is better than her, because that's what Daniel and Mary-Sue brought her up to believe. With all that damage done in her formative years, she may never have the self confidence to believe that she can ever quite be Angela's equal, but I'd try to talk to her to reassure her.

Try to let her know that she really is a success in life. If she's at level 9 in her career, she's already achieved more in life than most of us can ever hope for. She's certainly done better than me!

1: If she's still a Magazine Editor (lvl 9) and not a Media Magnate (lvl 10), double-check if all the required skill points and friend requirements have been met. Occasionally it can take a day or two extra to get the last promotion.

2: Could be related to the other sim, if they're not part of the household/not selectable (occasionally can be an issue in itself). The sim temporarily (but not fully) become part of the household when made selectable, so whatever issue they had related to that would go away. Could also be they have a too low relationship (unless you use mods like the ACR or similar), or not properly initiated "first base" actions, like kissing and such. Could even be a buggy bed (try replacing it, or if you're using a CC bed, try using an EAxis bed).

ACR has its own woohoo interaction, it doesn't do anything at all to the EA one.

Unless you have a mod that actually does change the EA social, the woohoo problem is almost certainly due to low relationship or not enough romance flags.

1. She has 15 friends and she has all the skills required for promotion. It's been four days and nothing happened. And yes, this is only happening to Lilith.

2. She's currently in a relationship with Dirk Dreamer (who isn't in any way related to the Pleasants and the Burbs) and their relationship is 100/100. She can still cuddle and kiss Dirk in bed but not WooHoo. It's Dirk who could initiate WooHoo between him and Lilith. And yes, they're using an EAxis bed (and cars). Again, this is only happening to Lilith for some reason.

EDIT: Wrong Dreamer my bad

Is she going to work happy? Low mood can nix promotions.

Have you tried without mods to see if it could be a mod?

Yes, she's always happy to go to work. I always ensure that her moods are at least at 80% before working.

I'll try but disabling CC during the game's startup didn't work. Is it safe to remove all files in Downloads? Will it give me the blue flashing in the gameplay?

Did you disable CC and go straight into the game? You have to quit and restart the game for it to work.

It might give you blue flashing and other dodgy stuff. That's why you back up your neighbourhood before you do it.

Take a backup first and then restore it after you've finished testing. Unrecognized tokens get wiped upon neighbourhood load, so you will end up losing various settings for hacks such as RCC or Monique's banking system.

Seems to be the solution, thank you! So the final say is that it's a problem in -one- lot in particular rather than one specific sim, since there's another sim with this problem!
