    @pookshuman First of all you can rant but we are users just like your self and some people may not help you. I've never had this problem but I see nraas mastercontroller (google it) reset lot seems to fix the issue. It's a mod and needs to be installed as a mod. I don't use this mod but I use overwatch to correct another issue I was having. I'll provide a link to the post I read - link - map icons  You may need to create the framework for cc/mods - not a big thing and there are plenty of posts on how to do it.

    Tried mastercontroller and errortrap. Was able to reset my sim, but I didn't know that wiped it's inventory too. 

    So I didn't save and uninstalled the mods.

    Now it seems like the whole thing is fubar.

    The attachment shows what I get with all saves now with no mods.

    I dunno, I am not really complaining. The game was basically useless to me before, now it is just slightly more useless. I guess I will try reinstalling when I have nothing better to do. 

    Thanks to you and @crinrict for the info even if things didn't work out.
