[Hobby-Event] Sleek Stockings

Post by mockingbird288z »

The Sleek Stockings hobby event will be starting tomorrow!

It's a 7 day event with the fashion designer hobby.

Is anyone having issues with this event? On my game it is completely broken: first time I set my sims to the task the event disappeared completely. Thought that maybe the event was a repeat and since I completed it the first time... but no, it disappeared from my game and task bar only to reappear later. So I tried it again, the first two sims got no credit despite the hobby saying 0-12, the event again disappeared but still showed in the task bar. This event is just not working at all going from available to unavailable to available but not giving any credit.

How disappointing! This sounds like it might be a bug. I would try and contact the game developers. The only conciliation is that it will most likely be repeated, and, hopefully, the kinks will be worked out by then.

Thanks Ruth. I put in a ticket to FM and am glad the event will most likely repeat later since the last time I had this sort of problem was with the mall skydiving thing or whatever it was and that never repeated.

Good luck with getting a reply from them if you're expecting one within 1-2 days. The Brilliant Backyards update brought about plenty of bugs for my game and every time I emailed about them, it took them five days to respond. They've reimbursed me with LPs and Simoleons since, so that'll most likely be what they'll give you as an apology.

I haven't gotten the lether shoes in two days work now. Anyone else having this problem? They aren't even marked as rare items. And I got the Chichi high heels hours ago, which usually are the most annoying to get.

My record for repeats so far (many events) is 527 trys! So maybe 30 sims x about 18 rounds of repeats before getting that last item. It might be a 10 minute task with no limit on number of sims working on it, but the repeats are killer.

I finish both stocking events with very little trouble (less than a day) and not too many repeats. I used 24 sims on the first one and 26 sims on this one. I hope my luck continues for the upcoming hair event!
