Re: How to turn of the "lot was created using the Move Objects cheat" Notification

@Naodyr It's a new feature added in the last patch.

It was intended so if a player downloads a lot off the gallery, and the lot was originally created with MOO, it gives them the chance to turn on MOO before placing it so the lot can be placed and everything is in the correct spot.

If the lot was created with MOO and a player places it WITHOUT having MOO on, things tend to move around and messes up the build.

    Ah I see, thanks. I'd still prefer to have the option to turn it off. Maybe they'll add it one day. If you place a lot of houses having this notification popping up all the time is a bit annoying. Sigh.

  • So I am having this same issue but my move objects cheat is on and it’s not recognizing it. Every time I download a build house from library  it’s notifying me it was built with move objects and some things may be moved but no option to turn MOO on although it already is on and should be adding the house as seen in the gallery! I am trying to download underwater houses from the gallery and none of them are showing up as they should aka non of them are underwater and who knows what else cause it looks so different! I check to make sure my MOO is on beforehand!

  • The pictures of houses underwater may be a mod either on the uploaded picture or on the game of the person who uploaded it. This seems especially likely since the Sims team added an update that automatically turns moveobjects on when you download a lot created using the cheat. So it's likely the issue is something unrelated.

    @momo04084 That's yet another bug... or more correctly, an oversight?

    They didn't bother to put any checks in it. If the lot was created with MOO, then it will display the warning. It makes no difference whether you have MOO on or not, it will still display the warning.

    What they should do is put some actual ERROR checking in their code. If you have MOO on, don't display a useless warning. If it's not on, give the player the option of placing it with MOO on. (temporarily)
  • I have that EXACT same problem!! I downloaded someone's build and I needed to move some of the items due to the bb.moveobjects cheat not being recognised as being ON! I then saved the build I MODIFIED/corrected in my library and downloaded that with bb.moveobjects on and it still came up saying i needed to enable it before i PLACED the lot, even though i DID! Now i have to re-fix ALL the objects which have been moved!!

  • It doesn't seem to be working even if it is AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED! It still comes up and i CANT be bothered to fix EVERY house I download just because EA CANT be BOTHERED to fix the problem after SO LONG!
