Please use this thread going forward: [CL] [DU] [FR] [ECO] Objects cluttering worlds | EA Forums - 5036144
@DizzyDee-KYes that's true. So when the bug is finally fixed we might be able to clean our save games with S4 Studio. And yes at the moment it doesn't make sense, since the bug occurs again and again.
But even if some of us are able to clean the save games there are still console players or people who are not that tech-savvy to use a 3rd party program for their saves.
I couldn't delete the flea market objects with this method too. Someone suggested that it might be in the "open streets data" file of the save game. But I haven't found these objects there.
@indywara Twisted Mexi said something like it was possible to create a mod to capture those items, but that's taking up his time and it's not really his job to make a mod or solution, so it's possible in any case, in addition to the examples of other players that they can remove them with S4S, I do think it's possible to clean up the game, maybe we'll end up with a cleaning tool added to the game or who knows what solution, it could be something good because of this bug.
This issue currently prevents me from playing with half of the households in my save, as I had to clean up my save and I don't want those object to come back.
I think enough save files were submitted already, @EA_Cade would it be possible to know if something is being worked on about this issue ? And if the potential fix is not retroactive to existing saves, at least to communicate on the issues in order for players to be careful about their beloved saves ?
This issue has been going on for too long giving it's potential impact on saves, I really hope a patch will come at the very begining of January providing us with a solution...
