UI acts up when adopting a pet

(1/1)

MrsCrumplebottom:
As far as I can tell this started after I installed University Life.

If it's important--I have all EPs except World Adventures, Ambitions, and Island Paradise.  Only SP is 70s 80s 90s.  Patched to 1.50.

At any rate, every single time my Sims adopt a pet from a shelter, when the pet arrives, the UI only wants to show the portrait of the newly-added pet.  It shows the proper motives, wishes, and moodlets for the Sim that's selected, but the pet's portrait is displayed.

I find that exiting the game and clearing the cache files solves the problem--until another pet is adopted, then I have to do it again.  Rather annoying.

Ideas...?

BattyCoda:
I have seen this. It's been a while, but I think I either went out to neighborhood view and back, or I switched to another household and back. When it happened to me, I hadn't adopted a pet, I just selected the pet, then it got stuck on the pet.

Not very helpful, I know.

MrsCrumplebottom:
You know what...if I can just pause it and switch it to another household and come back...that's a LOT better than quitting the game and restarting.  I'll see if that works next time my Sims adopt a pet.

(EDIT)

I noticed that it happens in Appaloosa Plains.  I had Sims adopt pets in Starlight Shores and it didn't happen.

Hm.
