Holes in house

I spent a good portion of the evening editing a farm house that came with Riverview, which I just moved my Sims into. I decided to make the kitchen slightly bigger, and since it has external walls, I also had to make the upstairs a bit larger as well. I put the new roof on, but now it has large gaping holes on each side of the house. I tried to build walls over the holes but then the top part of the wall sticks over the roof.
So I'm just wondering how EA built this house. Has anyone come across something like this and figured it out? I have testingheatsenabled and moveobjects on enabled.
Any help would be much appreciated.

  • @kwohld  I'd suggest disabling moveobjects, deleting that section of roof and the walls in that part of the second story, and then redrawing the walls and recreating the roof.  The reason to disable movobjects is that because it lets you place objects off-grid, the game may not perform the actions that go along with snapping to a slot, for example closing the wall around the roof.

    If this doesn't help, let me know which house it is and I'll take a look.

    Thank you PuzzlezAddict ! I turned the moveobjects on cheat off, and deleted the walls that align with the ends of the roof, but a message said the roof was interfering with objects so I put everything in my family inventory along with deleting the walls and turning the cheat off, and it worked! 🙂
