If none of that works, then you might want to try repairing the game. Just traveling away from the home lot and back sometimes seems to fix things with sims at times as well so you can try that too. If it does, you could move them back to their original lot later after you are sure that they are gaining fame. While I have no idea if this will work for fame, moving the sim to a new lot does seem to fix some weirdness with sims sometimes. Some careers don't have things like that connected to them so are harder to gain fame with. Switching careers to those that include daily tasks and actions that gain fame like a painter or writer will probably help you gain fame faster. That career seems to gain fame towards the stars faster than any other. Try putting your sim in the Actor career and see if they start to gain fame. If you're doing all that, and your sim is not gaining fame, then here's a couple of things I thought of for you to try. You probably already know all that, but I mention it just in case you don't. Neutral or near the middle seems to be slower. The higher the better on either side of the meter seems to fame to gain faster. And keeping the left side fame meter in the green or red and maxing it helps a lot too depending on whether you want a good or bad reputation. Pretty much everything you do working towards completing the two GF aspirations will give you fame. Plus being the Actor career and completing gigs also gives fame.

All the things that you can do to gain fame are marked by (fame +) when you click on objects (like an easel, computer, rocket ship, etc.) or do socials with other sims. The only thing that keeps it from going down is earning the Unstoppable Fame reward trait from completing the World Famous Celebrity aspiration. If you don't, then the meter goes the other way until you lose it all. You have to do a lot of things and keep doing them to keep the meter going up.

It does take a lot of things to get the fame up enough to gain the star levels and it's slow going. So, if you are not gaining any fame and the sims do have it enabled by remaining in the spotlight, then it's something else going on. That's the way I have it set so all my sims will be in the fame system unless I have them opt out of the spotlight individually. It only affects the star side of fame and you are correct, leaving it unchecked means sims will gain fame for the stars. Get Famous has an option to opt out of the fame system.

my game going now and checked the options.
