Please help, I'm either missing a rug or a swatch!

Problem is, I don't remember if it comes with a pack or if it's base game.. ☹️ But I do know what it looks like!

Do you remember a white/cream coloured rug that has maybe some kind of stripes or triangles that go in a kind of a striped way? It's one of the rugs that look most like actual real life rugs, it seems to have some texture to it. It's probably smallish/medium size, though it's hard to remember because I size up or down objects to fit better.. It has a kind of modern, Scandinavian vibe to it. Definitely it has some dark (black or dark brown) patterns but the base colour is light. If you remember what pack it comes from or if you have an image to share, that would be really helpful! Also I think it has been around for some while so it can't be from any of the packs that released 2020! (So not Tiny living, Eco lifestyle, Knitting, Star wars or Snowy escape)

This is really weird, I just went through ALL the rugs in build mode searching for it because I remember using it before but somehow I can't find it now?! 

Please I'm going crazy here, if there's anything you know that might help me find it / confirm it's missing from the game, I would love to hear it! 😢

  • @siirysiir Is this the rug you mean? (This one is base game and comes in black and brown varieties, I think.)

    @SheriGR It's not that one but the colour palette is pretty much the same. I'll try and find a real rug that has kinda the same vibe.. Thanks for trying tho! 😉
  • So this one here has kinda the same vibe. Obviously the patterns are a bit different but this is the general idea. I think the pattern was not completely symmetric if I remember correctly.

  • ahhh yesss I found it! But I was right, there's something funny going on and I'd be keen to know if anyone else can reproduce this. 🤔

    So it's from City Living and the name of the rug is "Trouk Fringe". The reason why I couldn't find it was that if you select all the colours in the catalogue filters, it doesn't show up! If I select all the colours and then only City living items it still doesn't show up in the filtered results! Is it just me or does anyone else have this? Here's an image of the rug:

    @siirysiir I went in my game and selected decorations then filtered for 'City Living' and it came up fine as a 'color/deco style option'. It also shows up fine if I don't filter for 'City Living':

    But... I just tried that filter option (filtered by color) and I also could not find this rug design by that method. In fact, I don'e see any of the "Trouk Fringe" carpets showing via the color filter (however, it does show up via the 'Packs' filter). Confusing. Perhaps this was an oversight? Good catch!

    @SheriGR Thanks for confirming that! Guess I'll have to make a bug report on that because filtering with colours is usually the only way to find a certain rug. There's no way anyone would remember what actual object some of the rugs are (and thereby how to find it in BB) just by thinking of the swatch like here in my case. I used like an hour just trying to find that certain rug bc it's one of my favourites and it's absolutely unacceptable to have to go through all that trouble to find one item.. :/

    @siirysiir Thanks for letting me know. Sorry for all of your frustration! That sounds like a great plan. Hopefully in the end all of your detective work will help others in the end, though. 🙌
