Hidden Mess!
My sims are forever uncomfortable in the upstairs living room because of trash somewhere. I imagine it’s a pile of pet fur. The place is so cluttered, rugs all over the floors... how do I find this s...
@KushKylie, the only thing I can think of is if one of your Sims is Neat, and there are enough dirty items around the house, you can have them get energized (drink coffee, take a brisk shower, etc.) and then click on them when they are already selected at the active Sims and there should be an option for a "Cleaning Frenzy!". 🤨 they will usually clean anything that they can physically get to. :eahigh_file: However, sometimes something is stuck behind something else. (I often get plates stuck behind the fridge or in the next room when I think I'm dragging them into the fridge to be saved for later!) So I would check behind/around the fridge, sinks, and trash bins to see if you accidentally put a plate there. Also look on the opposite wall behind the fridge (etc.) because I've also found plates in the next room behind the fridge or even outside behind the fridge. 😃) Also, check all your Sims' Personal Inventories because sometimes they put dirty dishes or half eaten food in their inventories! 🤒😃
Aside from that, I don't know of any way to find missing dirty dishes. There could be a Mod that exists for this, but you would have to check around (that is, if you don't mind the hassle that comes from playing with Mods. 😉)
Best of luck!
Thanks @PugLove888 , I was wondering how to get the cleaning frenzy option. I often find dirty dishes in a locked room, so I’ll lift everything up and see what I can find hiding in impossible places!
@KushKylie, yes, the Cleaning Frenzy! interaction is only available on Neat Sims, and only if they are energized. And you have to have them selected an then click on them and you should find the option! Sometimes Sims will also put a white bowl or plate on a white desk behind the computer, which is hard to see. But most of the time (at least with me) I find that what I thought I put in the trash, sink, or fridge is really on the counter in the corner or in the next room/outside!🤭 😳 It is easy to do if you are in a hurry or not careful!
If you find anything, tell me where you find it! I'm curious! 🤔😃
@PugLove888 I can’t find it! I got my neat guy energised, started a cleaning frenzy, and all he did was workout on the floor
i used a vampire to command someone to clean, and they went to dance.
I demolished the entire place in build mode, and nothing went into my inventory.
I shifted everything around, and found nothing dirty hiding behind anything.
I dont know what to do!
@KushKylie, I'm so sorry you are having such a difficult time finding the source of this mess! ☹️😞
Did you check all the Sims' inventories for dirty or half-eaten plates of food?🤔
The only other thing I can think of is to replace their house with a copy of the same house if you have one in the your Gallery Library (keeping any special items in their personal inventories or the family inventory for bigger items). I would advise using money cheats to reimburse your Sims for any loss of money or items if that occurs. 😉 Or you can move them to a new house altogether. I realize this isn't ideal, but unfortunately it is the only thing I can think of for now. ☹️
I will ask some others who might know of a workaround or solution, but I'll have to get back to you on that ...
