Re: [ARCHIVED] [GF] Videos from Video Station can't be accessed

[TEMPORARY SOLUTION] How to remove videos

I am on the version 1.102.190.1030 (probably the latest version as the time I write this guide). This should be a short fix in a video but I chose to write it down.

  1. Save (duplicate if needed)
  2. Go to "Build Mode", move your video station to household inventory
  3. Go to "Live Mode"
  4. Save
  5. Go to "Manage Worlds"
  6. Choose "Just Go to Manage Worlds"
  7. Create a new Household with a single Sim and with exactly SAME LAST NAME then put that new Household on an empty Lot (this will help you later)
  8. Click on your Sim's Household Lot
  9. On the bottom right, click "More" (button with three dots icon)
  10. Click on "Move out Household"
  11. Choose that new Household
  12. Click "Confirm"
  13. Choose "Move In"
  14. Now you should see your Household is merged with that new Household in single empty Lot
  15. [IMPORTANT] Click that merged Household Lot and Click "Play" on the bottom right
  16. [IMPORTANT] Go to "Build Mode"
  17. [IMPORTANT] Go to "Household Inventory"
  18. [IMPORTANT] You should remove any videos in the inventory
  19. Go to "Manage Worlds"
  20. Choose "Just Go to Manage Worlds"
  21. Click on that merged Household
  22. Click "More"
  23. Click "Manage Household"
  24. Click "Transfer Sims between households"
  25. On the right side of the window, click "Create a New Household"
  26. Click on your temporary new Sim
  27. Click "Transfer Sim(s)" (button with right arrow icon)
  28. Click the confirm button (check button)
  29. Now your Household back to your original one, click on your Household
  30. On the bottom right, click "More" (button with three dots icon)
  31. Click on "Move out Household"
  32. Choose your Sim's original Household Lot
  33. Click "Play", go to "Live Mode", put back your Video Station, then Verify that you can create video again.

Note: please make sure you did the [IMPORTANT] steps, if you don't then the buggy videos will still be there once your Household is back to the original house.

Hope this helps.
