    • 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.

@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.

    Is this why there are groups of chicken legs with no chickens running around in various places as well?  This is definitely a bug that needs fixing.  Aquariums are super for decor.  How dumb is it for my Sim to stand looking at what appears to be an empty tank...

    I’m still having this issue, is EA aware of the bug/possibly working on fixing it? At least that you may know of? I’m new to the forums and unsure how much EA actually sees on the forums

      Since it's been going on over a year... me thinks they just aren't paying attention or don't care. Still a problem for myself as well.
