[Build mode] Wall won't appear
Hi everyone, I'm having an issue with building. I started building my own house for the first time, it started off great. But then, out of nowhere, when I want to place a wall it just doesn't appear...

@jamilladoei Some of us still play... or at least claim to still play, even if we never seem to find the time these days. Anyway.
Start by deleting the five cache files in your TS3 game folder in Documents. They should be deleted regularly anyway, and every time you quit the game while troubleshooting. For reference, they are:
- CASPartCache.package
- compositorCache.package
- scriptCache.package
- simCompositorCache.package
- socialCache.package
If this alone doesn't help, you can quit without saving and delete the cache files again, then go back to the house and place a few objects. (Try creating a fence, just to see if it works, but if not, any Build item should do fine.) Even if some of the objects don't show up, that's okay—the point is to have the game register that there's something on the lot. Go back to Edit Town, click the bulldozer icon on the left side of the user interface, and bulldoze the lot. Use "save as" to rename the save (so you get a new save file), quit (without saving, as a separate step), delete the cache files again, and go back and see if you can now build properly.
If that whole process doesn't help either, please start a new save in a different world and try building there. This is just for testing; no need to save your progress. If it works, start a new save in the same world you've been playing in, and try to build on the same lot as before. Let me know how it goes, and also which worlds you used to test, as well as whether you use any mods or custom content.
