[FIXED] Graphics Glitch - Disappearing Doors/Windows/Wall Objects

Create a room at ground level with an enclosed porch.  Bump up the foundation and place stairs going up to the porch.  Place doors, windows, etc. on front wall.  See image here.  Now, go up a level.  The doors and windows will appear to have gone missing, with gaps left to indicate their position.  The wall objects will have disappeared entirely.  See image of this here.  Go back to ground level, and everything will re-appear.  Note that if the stairs aren't fully extended across the porch area, the glitch does not occur.  Note that it doesn't matter whether you use fencing or walls to enclose the area; the glitch will occur either way.

Another example that I believe must be related is that this same issue occurs when objects are placed on a wall next to an adjacent roof at ground level.  See image here.  It does not happen on higher levels.

  • This bug appears to be resolved in the 10/25/16 patch.  I took a look at one of my builds that had the problem, and also at Sakuraleon's Geo Eco that had the problem, and I am now seeing all the doors/windows regardless of viewing level.  @NoWynter @ju1ka can you confirm?

    I have been looking for a recent post about this, but I'm not finding one. Since downloading Realm of Magic, and trying to build a mansion this week, every time I go to save, I notice all the second floor windows are disappearing at some point. Since this issue was considered resolved years ago, this has to be a new glitch.

    I have no mods, it's on Windows 10, own everything but Moschino. Used bb.moveobjects on a few items. Took them out, and the windows still disappear somewhere along the way.

    @home8896 Are they physically gone (aka you can place new ones) or just visually ?

    As this was fixed in 2017, it's best if you make a new thread..
  • Hi, 

    I have a problem with wall paterns blending in my windows, that happend when my game updated a few days ago. Also, I have many mods in my game and one of the answers I found on internet said that lights make that problem. I deleted all the lights in every room and nothing happend. Also I tried to work with only base game stuff and moved my mods out of my game completely still the same thing. And I have bugs that make people eat 2 3 hours, I cant have foundation only if I dl lot from other platforms. I don't know how to fix that, so little information about that problem so If you can help me somehow I would be very grateful. Thank you !
