Bug? MySims are always unemployed

Dear all,

one feature I always use is the MySim tab. I don't know the exact translation in English, however I've always always always used Bella Goth and Bob Newbie.

Usually, when you assign them a house they also find a suitable job however, since the switch to the 64bit version on Mac App Store, none of these sims find any job. They are always unemployed. In some cases they even leave the city.

This is a list of plugins that I have:

NAM 37 RC but also NAM 36
IH Census
Industry quadrupler
Spam and SimPeg
Industrial Revolution Mod

This problem appears even if I disable the mods entirely. Any ideas? Thanks

    Same here. Where did you file the bug?


    I use the 64-bit version of SimCity 4 from the Mac App Store, on a 2018 MacBook Pro running macOS Catalina 10.15.

    For this and similar system setups, the plugins path is /Users/username/Library/Containers/com.aspyr.simcity4/appstore/Data/Documents/SimCity 4/Plugins/ (where username is your macOS account name).

    My Plugins include the release candidate of NAM37 and anything else I think may enhance or beautify my game!

    I first played SimCity on the SNES in 1992 and I've been dabbling ever since.

    I use MySims in most of my city tiles and there are certain paths to work for them that seem to get bugged in the game. I've not figured out any rhyme nor reason to what upsets the path finder for them. Moving the MySim to another home can solve it, but it's a bit of trial and error.

    UPDATE:

    Aspyr NEVER replied to me and today I came back to play this game after months, starting from a fresh installation of Big Sur and SimCity 2014 from MAS.

    Today I submitted another ticket on their website and blamed the company on Twitter for their underwhelming customer support.

    Yeah, I don't think they have any shame frankly, so don't expect anything to change. I mean, after all people keeping paying them (not small sums of) money for their rubbish, where's the incentive to fix it?


    Head over to my Lot and Mod Shack to keep abreast of my latest developments.

    Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

    p.s. - I'm MGB over on SC4D and a member of the NAM team.
