Sims 3 64-bit can't remove lot

@ashbymcdonald  I split your post into its own thread because the other thread is about a different issue.

It looks like the consignment store is showing correctly in map view—it usually has that dark flat roof—but doesn't have a tag.  Out of curiosity, does the tag show up if you build something on the lot?  It can just be a couple of walls.

And what happens when you try to bulldoze the lot: do you get an error, does the game freeze or hang, etc.?  When you say that deleting the objects doesn't help, do you get the same error when you then try to bulldoze?  Does the lot work normally, as in, can your sims consign or buy items, and does your household have any consigned items waiting to be sold?

Please also remind me whether you use mods.

Thank you for starting a new thread.  

There is no tag, even after I place a few objects in it and build a couple of new walls. The symbol does not show up in edit town, nor does it show up in map view:.

When I try to bulldoze, nothing happens.  

It is acting almost like a world editor object, but when I try to place a world editor object (tree, rock), I get an error message saying I can't place it on a lot.  So it knows there is a lot there.  But when I hover the bulldozer of the lot, it does not light up like it does when I move it over any other lot.  

It DOES work -- my sims can sell stuff there, draw stuff on the drafting board, etc.  

I do use the Twallan mods (SP, MC, Overwatch, etc).  Never had a problem up until now. 

@ashbymcdonald  Have you tried resetting the lot with MasterController?  Click on the ground of the lot or on the building itself and select NRaas > MC > Reset Lot.

Does adding NRaas Tagger make a difference?  Among other things, it manages the map tags for buildings.  Even if you don't want to play with Tagger moving forward, I'd be curious to know whether this helped.

If not, I could start generating a list of some other suggestions, or if you prefer, I could try it out in my game and see whether I can find a way to get rid of it.  If you want, upload the save somewhere (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) and either post the link here or send it to me via private message.

I appreciate the help. Neither Reset Lot nor Tagger seem to work.

I also noticed that one of the houses has the same problem. I may just have to blow it up and start over. I'll see about sending you the file to try out.

"...it's quite well progressed."   That's code for "holy crap you've spent a lot of time on this game!!!"  

I know you are really busy working on the mods that will fix all the bugs in the new 64bit version, so I really appreciate you taking the time out to help me with this.  It worked like a charm!  

Thank you very much!  

No, that was code for at first glance it looks like you have been enjoying this game and would like to continue doing so. I didn't really poke around that much for details. 🙂

And sorry to have to say this because it may be disappointing, but we don't have any 1.70 specific mods in the works (and I'm not a mod developer anyway, more like support staff although I would happily test anything an NRaas developer produces).  NRaas mods already work fine on that version. I have come across a theory expressed elsewhere about why 1.70 behaves the way it does, it has more to do with the way the original C++ code of the game engine might have been prepped for conversion. It's just a theory as the one proposing it freely admits, but if there is any validity to it then it may not be possible to address all of the resulting issues with mods. Maybe someday some of them, one issue at a time.

But you're welcome and hope you can play this game save forward for at least as long as you would like to.
