[LD] Lasting Legacy Family Portrait flags building as CC

The "Lasting Legacy Family Portrait" from L&D causes the dreaded CC Wrench Icon to appear on my lots when I upload them to the gallery. You guys have no idea how long it took me to find the culprit.

  • Photos and paintings flag buildings as CC (or most do, I don't know why they sometimes don't)

    That has been called out as by design a long while ago and you can find the thread on that here: [BY DESIGN] Sims' Paintings/Photos Tagged As Custom Content | EA Forums - 8590557 

    I would say family portraits work the same way. It adds a photo of your family to a building hence it's not game content anymore.

    The whole thing does have many flaws, especially since console players can't find these but as of now, I don't think this is a bug either.

    Will check in with a CM though.

    Yes, she's wearing a cc hair, one of the few cc items in my game.

    Edit to add: There was of course no CC in my game while I hunted down the culprit.

    Can you upload the lot to the gallery ?

    Did the portrait change when you remove the CC and gave her a different hair ?

    No, the portrait still showed Aurora the way she is in the photo, with all CC removed and the localthumbcache deleted.
    Just checked, and sadly I deleted the house after I uploaded it with another painting on that wall.

    If you upload a pic of a family with no cc/mods, does it still flag ?

    I will test..

    First, with the Purdue family by Maxis from the family bin. No CC wrench.

     

     

    Then with one of my families with only CC eyes, and yes the house flags with a wrench.

    This is design then. I'm surprised it doesn't flag the pic anyways as photos but maybe they changed it again to just be the following that flags

    • Paint by Ref
    • Photos of Sims that have CC.
