Product: The Sims 4Platform:Sony Playstation 4Which language are you playing the game in? EnglishHow often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)What is your current game version number? 1.42What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except journey to batuu and dust Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go into build mode, and select dream home decorator hanging clothes item. You will see the placement square but the item will be in the floorWhat happens when the bug occurs? The placement square will remain red and the clothes cut into the floor. You can’t place the item on the wall and bb.moveobjects can’t fix it either.What do you expect to see? I select the item and can place it on the wall like it is supposed to.Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? NoI can’t place the new hanging clothes items that came with the dream home decorator pack. They cut into the floor when selected and cannot be placed onto the wall. Bb.moveobjects can’t fix the issue either.

@crinrict No, I tried placing them with the modulars and it stayed in the floor. I tested it further and it seems to happen with my loved in lots and is followed by the walls getting stuck. I was able to place them on the modular in a house with no sims living there after restarting. I’ll test it further to see if it happens again on my lives in lots. @mumofharry I was trying to place them on the modulars but the clothing remained clipping into the floor. @stjmk no, there were platforms on the lot. It seemed to occur with the wall getting stuck error while in build mode.

@stjmk @The wall getting stuck error is when you can’t adjust the walls like down, partial up, or completely up during build or live. Basically it’s whether you can cutaway to see through them. It occurs usually after being in build mode and going back to live mode. I’ve had the error happen after exiting CAS. I’ve only been able to fix it by exiting the household I’m playing and reloading or by restarting the game. It’s been around for awhile love stair railing issue, but I thought it was fixed after the recent updates.

@Aeffinlexis You mean the console specific issue: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/XB-PS-NEED-SAVES-Can-t-raise-or-Lower-walls-use-D-Pad-Patch-1-39/td-p/10188183 ?So it only occurs in connection with this ?

@Aeffinlexis Are there any platforms in your build?Sorry, I know I sound like a broken record, but platforms, anywhere in the build, can cause weirdness. (Even just using the little platform arrows as opposed to the big foundation arrow can do it.)

@Aeffinlexis Are you trying to place them on their own on the hanger shelf ?

@Aeffinlexis you need to use the modular with the hangar to place them

@Aeffinlexis'It seemed to occur with the wall getting stuck error while in build mode.'

That's a new one to me! How does the wall getting stuck error work (or, well, not work)?

@Aeffinlexis Yikes! Glad I haven't had it in my game. That sounds aggravating. Is there a bug report for it yet?

I've got this bug too! It's so annoying and I can't stop it. I've even tried using the 9 and 0 keys to manually move the clothes up and down and I still can't place it even with bb.moveobjects on! How do I fix this?

Anyone find a fix to this? Yesterday, I could see the clothes and hang them. Today, I wanted to add some women's clothes and I can't see any of the hanging clothes. The red box on the floor but no clothes at all. I haven't been able to figure out how to resolve this.
