Re: Sims 3 (64 bit and metal) gendered bathroom doors not working

Hi Puzzlezaddict,

I have not tried replacing the doors with new gendered doors - only non-gendered doors. I have had it occur on three separate saves, two in Sunset Valley, one in Riverview. I have observed this bug at the main park at Sunset Valley, Varg's Tavern (placed in Sunset Valley), and the Cannery festival lot in Riverview. I have had this issue with both male and female sims, and both male and female NPCs seem to be struggling too. I do not use any mods.

I have this problem too.  I've tried deleting the gendered doors and replacing with new gendered doors, you can't use them, it says they can't be placed through a wall.  You just can't place them anywhere.

I have the exact same problem - the gendered bathroom doors do not work. The Sim won’t go through them.

When I entered build mode to fix it, I noticed that the gendered bathroom doors can’t even be placed properly. When I move them and try to place them back, the game says “Can’t be placed through a wall”. But a normal, non-gendered door from the build-mode could be placed in that exact location. Does the game not “know” that this object is supposed to be a door?

@MsKarlaMarie @IndigoMoonlight  Funny story, when I first tested this, I didn't have the problem at all.  The first three sets of doors I tried in Twinbrook were fine, as were the bathroom doors in the central park in Sunset Valley, so I couldn't figure out what the problem was.  Turns out, some of the doors in Twinbrook are not fine, just not the ones I tested, and the SV park doors are not gendered unless Seasons is installed, which it wasn't for my test.

Anyway, I eventually went back and reproduced this, both that some gendered doors are unusable and that they can't be placed or replaced in build mode.  I reported it as well, so it's at least on the radar of the EA people who might be able to look into it.  No idea if it'll get fixed though.
