Re: [OPEN] [IL] Island Spirits won't leave

@Badgerborn Can you make the same happen on a fresh save that never saw any mods/cc ? Do they also glitch ?

Do you get them also if you place the house on a different lot ? To see if it's lot or house related ?

  • @crinrict I've created a fresh mod-free save recently to see what happens, it may take time for the bug to trigger. As I said before, the Spirirts visited me for about an in-game week before something broke.

    And I've only just discovered one more thing, just a few minutes after making this thread. I replaced the lot with a cloned save of the same lot, but saved from a world state where it hasn't been lived in - and the spirits were gone. Then, just to check something, I put the cloned save of the spirit-infested lot in the brand-new, mod-free save - and got the bug again. So it seems like the spirits are somehow tied to the lot like objects, but for some reason cannot be removed like furniture or walls, etc.

    The upside is that replacing the lot with a new one seems to be a solution... but the downside is that it would mean refurnishing the whole house, which I'd like to avoid.

    (By the way, the lot in question is the one on the right to the Ohan'ali Beach.)

    @Badgerborn 

    are you still having issues with this ? Do you still have the same that had the issue ?

    Would you be willing to share your save with me ?

    If so, please zip your saves folder and upload it somewhere like dropbox,, googledrive or OneDrive and PM me the link.

  • @crinrict I have a copy where the house is still full of spirits (I've placed a new house in the original file and overwritten it). I'll send you the link in a minute.

    @Badgerborn It does look like the swirling lights have become permanent on that lot. The question is if you can create the same situation with bugging the lot without mods installed.

    I mean, I can see it's still happening even on a modless save but if the lot is bugged, it could have happened because of them and the house becomes permanently bugged.

    Only thing that does seem to work is place it unfurnished and place all furniture again.

    I'll refrain from adding this for now but I'll forward it with your save.

    If anyone else has this happening, please let me know, especially if you don't use mods.
