- The BahHaus Stupendous Door --> Report by blewis823

Needs an EP/SP to work properly
He's a Live Wire Radio --> Needs OLS, report by kimjo313 & KLorelei

General Problems
- Wall lights that are from before LN can't be shifted up and down
- There are probably more counters & fences that have the re-coloration problem.
- Stairs that came out before they made them recolorable are all still non-recolorable. (Patch 1.5)

Wall Coverings/Wall sets
The left and right edges of the "Simple Paneling with Crown and Baseboard Moulding" are slightly different in brightness, so that when put together on the wall you see the alternating brightness all around the room. This is the set used in the store picture for the "Glitter and Glam" bedroom set.

General Problems
- The HELS aquarium and the fish bowl don't show all of the LN fish

World Adventures
Hidden tomb door (WA) shows holes in the walls--> reported by gobot1236

Questionable items
- Those male shoes from FL look kind of girly. What do you think ? Should they be categorized for sleepwear only cause they are actually slippers or should they be female only ? (I don't have FL, so I can't form an opinion myself).

OK. Bed time. Done for now. Will update German names tomorrow. The links should work regardless.

If you have anything more, please let me know.

As Alex said, that really depends if it bothers you. With the recolorable thing for example - I don't mind too much, also it doesn't bother me that the wall items pre-LN are not up-down-shiftable. Someone else might find that a major pain.

So I say: If it's an issue for you, uninstall, if not, leave them BUT I would certainly not spend any SP on those items. If they come with a set you really want, I would be ok but don't buy them as single items.
