Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
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 latest patch... You know, the one that everyone is having issues with (patchpocalypse).
I have played retail lots before (the patch) and never experienced any issues. With the latest patch I have not been able to play much, due to the many bugs that came with it- however, I did start playing a new (vanilla) game and had my sim make a retail lot (selling paintings), and on both time of opening there was theft of my paintings (including masterpiece paintings that were ten thousand simoleons- and a couple that were a couple hundred simoleons). The theft left behind no way to restock the items, and I watched a sim do it right in front of my sim (with my sim having no way to stop it, or confront the sim).
Many people may want theft in their own game. I do not want it in mine (and really... I do question those who actually want things like that).
And yes, to go through the whole spiel.... My computer meets more than the specs, I do not have mods in, did a repair, always delete localthumbcache, yadda yadda yadda yadda.
