Re: Harvestables and House Decor Disappearances/Fish in Aquarium invisible

@crinrict The door only disappeared the once and I have no idea how it happened but it hasn't happened since. As for the tank I turned on the light of the tank and had my sim leave the room and the fish disappeared, the tank light was still on. I had her go back in the room and they were in the tank. I can make a video later but I'm about to head to work for now.

    Will get back to you on Monday.

    @LostOne20 So I tested this with my game and yours and they don't visually disappear for me.

    It's for all your saves, right ? What about fish in bowls ?

    @crinrict Sorry for the late reply, it does happen in all my saves. I've turned the lights on in the tanks with/without sim in the room and when the sim is outside the room the fish disappear.

    As for the fish in fishbowls they don't seem to be effected.

    @LostOne20 Someone else reported the same in the bug forum now.

    Could be a graphics thing. I don't want to move your whole post over as your initial post is about all kinds of stuff disappearing.

    Might just move the converstion about the fish but will need to do later.

    Could you post a picture of your ingame gaphics settings ? (think we haven't covered that yet)

    sorry for slow replies, dealing with a death in the family and funeral stuff. I'll try to get you as the info as you need it but i haven't played much recently (within the past week).

    @LostOne20 I was FINALLY able to duplicate the issue. It actually only seems to happen in one of your saves and I tested the other one.

    The aquarium in your legacy save seems to be broken. It lighting is neither on nor off. If you click on it, you will notice it has a lights on as well as a lights off option.

    If you turn it OFF it will repair itself. If you turn it on, it will completely break (fish no longer visible at all).

    You can also just rebuy a new aquarium. That should also fix it.

    Let me know if that works for you.

    @crinrict I gave it a go and it seems to have done the trick. Thank you for your hard work and figuring this out. I was completely lost on if it was the save or just the game itself.

    @LostOne20 Glad that worked for you too.

    Hope you have no more other weird disappearances. If you do, let me know.
