Grass on lot "spills" onto road

I am trying to place a home onto a piece of empty property which my Sims haven't moved to yet. The grass on the lot keeps spilling onto the road, as pictured. I tried placing the lot on 3 other empty properties with the same result. I have 3 mods: Errortrap, Overwatch, and [Admin - removed mention of mod with adult content]. I've never had this happen before, and I've had Overwatch and Errortrap installed for about 3 months with no issue, and I just installed Working Sims Bed Controller yesterday but this glitch was occuring before then. Any advice? Thank you.

  • Is this a custom world or an EA world? I ask because I've only seen this glitch in custom worlds. 

    Also, are you only having this glitch with this particular lot or other lots? 

  • I have been playing The Sims 3 for many year now and I have had this problem from the start.

    I obtained my DVD during 2012 and it was not until 2016 that I got online and started to use the internet.

    For nearly 4 years I was using the DVD installation and I am still doing so.  This problem is not just for custom worlds and it is quite a common problem otherwise there would have been no need for anyone to write mods to try and rectify it.

    I have tried a couple of mods but non of them work practically well, (at least not for me).  However, I did find a world replacement for Sunset Valley which although does not cure the problem completely it does work to a great extent.

    Unfortunately I can't remember who wrote this replacement world.

    The screenshots I include are:

    1, The original installed world (Corner of the City Hall).

    2, An area where I found the problem most prevalent.

    3, The corner of City Hall as per the replacement world.
