That's weird - I did not even notice. I could have sworn I saw some in one of the parks - but I haven't really gone looking for the spawners this time. I have mainly focused on pets spawning, looking for routing problems or tears or other oddities. Now I am curious... but it is too late tonight to go back in - I had mainly been working on getting my sim some income so he could build his house - when he was singing for tips I thought I saw some maybe it was whisps or something. I know I have found some seed but I hadn't even been looking for them when I spotted those. I found snakes, birds, and beetles and a chipmonk in the campground. I saw a few horses but no deer or raccoons yet. I wonder if it is just the spawners have been slowed down as I have seen a few others complaining of not finding spawners on a few other threads. In the first version I did check a few lots for spawners in buydebug and they seemed a normal amount - so I guess I just never checked since the first one you posted. I always assumed they would still be in place when ever you updated automatically.

I understand. I didn't notice until I wanted my newest Sim to make some quick money... she was looking for gems and butterflies (which I know where they all should be) and yet no butterflies. Even on the lots, which I placed.
I got bugs and gems and little birds/animals but not one butterfly.

Rflong I think this must be an EA created issue. DD and I were testing alexspoom's Suburban Springs beta 2 and neither of us found any gem spawners. I'm not sure there were any bugs, either. There were some seeds and fish but not much else. He added more spawners in the beta 3 but now I am thinking this has got to be some kind of bug. :(

Ah...
Did he fix it? Do you remember what he did? :)

I know for a fact I collected a monarch butterfly at the family campgrounds,but I too did wonder about the lack of butterflies.You don't ever over do it in your worlds, but after a sim week of play I only found the one.

You did find one? But it took a week- that is strange.
LOL~I did go back into the world to check if I had them placed. They're there and on the lots... so, I'm stumped.

~If I ever make a large world that doesn't have something go wrong the first time, I'll just have to stop because it'll me a miracle. :lol:

I've reinstalled my Base Game. Reinstalled CAW... transfered my map and paint layers so it was quicker. Then transfer my layers- except for the spawners. I'm checking on butterflies before adding any lots.
