For my Sim house, I've tried deleting stairs, walls and doors, and put new ones up. I removed objects put in with the bb.moveobjects cheat near the doors and stairs (including indoor staircase and outdoor steps to the porch). I tried extending the walls with the doors outward. I have a small foundation but didn't change it. I deleted rugs by the doors. I deleted my Script Mod. I don't think I have other mods. The doors are unlocked for all. None of this helped. What else can I do? How can I find out what the obstructions are?
Hi Crin,
To answer your questions:
Strangely, I tried putting back only my old saves by adding the Tray file back in. After I did that there was no New Game button, Load Game button or Play button, only a New Scenario button. I kept adding back more files to try to get those button options back, and I ended up having to put back ALL of my old Sims files, to get those buttons to reappear.
I tried something else. I don't understand how, but it works. I changed the puppies into adult dogs and now they get through the doorways fine. Weird!
Thank you!
Jillian
