The '''Bad Mood glitch''' is a bug in Late Night update, ''The Sims 3 Outdoor Living'', ''The Sims 3 Generations'' and ''The Sims 3 Town Life'' that effectsaffects a Sim's [[mood]].
 
This glitch only occurs on Windows and Mac OS X and is not present on The Sims 3 for Consoles and The Sims Medieval. The Sims 3 Late Night does not have this glitch nor does Fast Lane and prior but it will occur if the Late Night update is installed.

This glitch causes a Sim to be in a bad mood despite not having negative moodlets. It is caused by the Well Rested Moodlet and the Nectar Machine. The value of the mood will be -100.
 
==Explanation==
[[File:Badmoodglitch2.png|thumb|250px|A Sim affected by this glitch; Jimmy is in a Bad Mood when making nectar, but he has no negative moodlets.]]
Line 14 ⟶ 15:
* The player is not allowed to choose the Work Hard option at Work and [[School]].
* The Mood score is lower than usual. In addition, the Mood score for [[Job performance]] and School performance is lower than usual.
* The simSim cannot clean objects (unless they have the Neat trait).
* Actions cause the "Mood too low!" message when the player tries to use some actions.
 
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
== Good Mood glitch ==
[[File:Good mood glitch.png|thumb|250px|A Sim affected by the Good Mood glitch. This Sim is in a good mood despite having no positive moodlets.]]
The Good Mood glitch is the opposite of the Bad Mood glitch. It can happen if a Sim fully sleeps on a high quality bed resulting in the Sim having a good mood despite having no positive moodlets. Unlike the Bad Mood glitch, this glitch is still present in the latest patch (1.67). 
 
This glitch is actually beneficial to the Sim. These benefits include: 
* Steady increase in Lifetime Happiness points without the need for positive moodlets. 
* Increased job/school performance at a faster rate. 
* Better social conversations and faster relationship increase. 
==Workarounds and prevention==
There are ways to fix this. The first 3 are EA supported but the 4th is a mod that fixes the glitch.
Line 44 ⟶ 45:
* Use [[testingcheatsenabled]] to remove the Well Rested Moodlet (If less than +20 or higher than +30) and then save the game and reload. Use method 1 if the Sim is a Bad or Good Mood after reloading.
* Cancel the Sleep Interaction to prevent the moodlet from occurring.
* Use this [httphttps://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=432449 Mod from Mod The Sims]. (This [[mod]] will fix the glitch.)
