[FIXED] [CL] Apartments: Cutaway view shows other Apartment

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.90.358.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All Expansion Packs, all Game Packs except Dine Out and JTB, almost all Stuff Packs
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have your Sim live in an apartment in San Myshuno. Set the Game Camera to Sims 3 Style and the wall cutaway view.
What happens when the bug occurs? The interior walls of your apartment are cut away and you can see the walls in your neighbor's apartment, or even thru their walls to the building across the way. Also, if I place wall decor on those interior walls, my Sim gets a routing error if I direct her to view the wall art, and she is unable to view it. See attached pics.
What do you expect to see? Normal cutaway view with the Game Camera, where the walls in front of my Sim cut away, but the walls behind her are not cut away.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. The July 26, 2022 game patch

This is an overhead view of my Sim's apartment in San Myshuno. The game camera is set for wall cutaway mode. The walls in the hallway appear cut away, as if my Sim was behind them (she is not, you can see her standing in the bathroom). This household is just one single Sim, so it's not a household member causing the cutaway view. Even parts of the apartment to the right and to the rear have walls that are cut away and I can see the landscape outside of the building.

This is a view of the same apartment with the same camera settings, taken on a laptop that has not yet been updated with the July 26 patch.The hallway walls and the back wall to my Sim's bathroom are not cut away, only the walls that are in front of my Sim are cutaway. I cannot see the walls of my neighbor's apartment. My Sim has no routing problems when directed to view wall art on her interior walls:

  • @SchacherTV It's on the Laundry List for this month and the fix announcement links back to this bug report. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the next patch will fix this and we can close this bug report. 🥳

    UPDATE: I have the patch installed and I am testing it now. Wow, it looks like it is fixed!!! Jasmine Suites look good. I'll check a few others.

    Fixed by the 09/18/2024 game patch

    PC: 1.109.185.1030 / Mac: 1.109.185.1230

    Console: 1.99

    BTW: It's a different bug (I'll look for it and add the link here) but it looks like they fixed the doors not dropping down too.
