    • Frogs, mice and fishes in tanks are now visible when placed in laptop mode. Welcome back, friends!

    Fixed in Patch 1.109.185/1.98
    There were a few more animal types mentioned in this thread. Please create a new thread if any of those are still invisible.

I noticed yesterday that my sim's frogs' tank was completely gone and all you could see was the eyes of the frog, I was trying to build an aquarium wall today and the fish were also invisible, they were in the fish tank's inventory but they weren't visible, I tried turning the light on and off, taking the fish out and buying new ones, buying a new fish tank but nothing worked. I do play with mods so it is a possibility it could be an issue with them but I don't know what could be interfering with them, the only thing I haven't tried is repairing the game which I'm doing now and will update if that fixes it otherwise I am completely stumped.

I tried repairing my game and it didn't do anything.

    @DrDeadworth It's a laptop mode issue. If your machine can handle it, turn laptop mode of, otherwise you need to wait until EA fixes this.

      That fixed the problem. Thanks heaps Crin and everyone else for your help.  Btw I also noticed that when I switched off Laptop mode the Graphics were mindblowing! I always wondered why I never had light streaming into my house and shadows like other people had and now I know why.
