[Info Request] Sims moving
My sim is now moving out of her old house and into a new apartment. It's like one of those expensive pent houses. I wish to rent the place out while furnished but it's only appearing unfurnished ...

I have 0 mods. Nothing that would or could conflict with the game. All I have is a few packs and the main packs. I tried evicting them and moving them in as well. I don't wish to start a fresh game because I'd lose my progress with everything else I was doing. Her job her fame, friends, and relationships would start over wouldn't it? I get I'll be able to choose a new home from the beginning but it defeats the purpose of what I was doing and from what I've seen and looked up you can't save apartments as lots. I only see tutorials on how to build apartments and gain already build ones from the gallery for single 1 unit penthouses.
@Kiki-Inuyoshyy I'm sorry... I was probably not clear on this... I didn't mean for you to use the new game to play (as you are correct, your sim would loose social and other items, so you would want to carefully research and decide what was lost and how to retain what'a most important if you tried that route...
My intend for the new game was to use it to go to that lot you want to move into and save the lot to the gallery, go to your current game and download the one that you saved to replace the one that is being glitchy. Did you do the game repair? You also have no CC?
Hmmm... if apartments cannot be saved you could also try seeing if clearing the cache helps? Please refer to this article: http://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/help/cache.php
Curious, did you try this move-in with this family on a different lot to see if the issue is only happening in this particular lot?
I've noticed that if I mess up when moving into an apartment the furniture is gone for good. You can confirm this by entering the apartment from manage world via the buy/build icon at the bottom right. If you enter the apartment and the furniture is gone then it is gone. You can quit without saving if that is not an option then maybe a back up from earlier?
Worse case scenario and you want the apartment as it was, you can start a new saved game. Then enter the apartment from manage worlds and upload each room to the gallery.. or your tray, switch back to your save and place the rooms.
- Do you really have to upload each room? Does that really work with penthouses? And how do you upload it?
@Kiki-Inuyoshyy Uploading each room then using them to overwrite the rooms in the apartment in the game you want to play should work, if it is missing its furnishings, as you said you wanted. Yes, this would be the only way to do this, as far as I know, if you are not able to upload or download the apartment as a lot. So... You would go to build/edit mode and make sure at least one of the walls is up on the room so you can more easily click a wall. Once you click any of the walls in the room the whole room should become highlighted/selected. With the room still highlighted/selected the option to upload the room to your library will be clickable. Click that, and the rest of the process is similar to uploading a lot to your library, but you will be asked to select a 'room type' for it. This will move a copy of the room into your 'My Library' tab in your gallery. From there you will be able to go into the other lot and download/place the rooms over top of the same rooms (one by one) into your current game's lot. The library will be the same and available in both of your games.
- I tried what you mentioned and it doesn't work. I repaired the game more than I can count. CC are mods rights? I do not have them if that is what that is. I'll look into that article, but I don't think it'll work. :c
Yes I just moved her into a different unit apartment, before I settled I tried moving her into cheaper ones to and they all work just fine, except I'm starting to think you can't move into previously old homes or apartments furnished if the previous home owners died. Which might actually suck.

No, Mods and CC are not the same thing, but both are non-EA code (not created by EA) and many people use them... and a big game update recently broke a lot of them, so this is causing an issue for a number of gamers. This article discusses Mods and CC a bit. I hope it will be helpful to understand what they are.:
