Where Are My Maxis Recolors?Solved!
I just noticed I have two problems I have been meaning to solve. One is the large red window (Maxis) looks like a big picture window that goes all way to floor and takes up a huge amount of wall space...

About three years ago I decided to uninstall Origin and TS4. But I wondered since TS2UC wasn't actually tied to Origin if I could keep the game. Well, I did by not uninstalling the Origin Games file in the program files. I can still play any EA game I never tied to Origin technically through any patch if I remove Origin but don't remove the Orgin Game file from programs. Such as some free games Origin gave away but didn't need to log into Origin to play them. Such as really old games etc. I assume these days they have probably stopped that by patching all their games automatically now. But for me it was legal and I don't have to have Origin installed at all as long as those games listed in my Origin Game file remain in the program files.
Thank you for your help. Silly me, I would have never dreamed the bathroom stall recolors were from BV (I can't remember this stuff, lol) and later EPs broke this. I have no idea why I couldn't get them to show up in my game. However, once I decided I must have done something wrong with CEP years ago I should probably use the automatic reinstaller to reinstall all the CEP files into the proper folders in program files (not my Documents folders) and it worked! I now have my stall colors back! thank you for posting the pictures, because I was thinking I was going crazy and just imagined BV added recolors. lol I can't remember which EP or patch or whatever had added recolors to the basegame stall.
After rereading CEP extra fixes I noticed the mesh was actually fixed by MaryLou at MTS and I needed to reinstall CEP and it's extras into the proper program files. I also didn't know my Simple Round Column 2 story coulumn was missing until I read the CEP extra fixes. It was removed from the game with FT and shouldn't have been. I wonder if you have it? I didn't. There too, I thought I had just dreamed there used to be one or I had downloaded one for multistory but nope it was a FT bug.
Thank you! I'm glad I didn't just imagine Maxis added recolors to the bathroom stalls in the BV pack. This confirms to me that TS2UC isn't as patched up as everyone thinks if this stuff can go missing and need CEP extra fixes to fix them to show up again. Don't know why my game was messed up unless I didn't install the CEP files the right way and MTS had actually fixed some of these meshes that had gone missing after later EPs etc.
