Door locked or otherwise unusable for Visitors in Gallery house?

I downloaded a great little house from the gallery. My active Sims can come and go through two big main external doors as they please. Something seems to have happened to the Welcome Wagon however and it is not showing up as a event timer. Also, and more importantly, several visitors seem unable to enter the house.

I have tried checking to see if the door might be locked -it does not appear to be.
I have tried setting a different door as the front door, as mentioned, there are two. That resulted in the neighbours going to the other door but not coming inside.

I am definately getting a “Hey, I can’t move/route there” reaction from neighbours when attempting a ‘Sit and Chat here’ on the dining table.

There doesn’t seem to be a “Invite in” interaction available, rather a “Ask to Leave” and the normal conversation options.


Any ideas? About the only other thing I can think of is to sell and replace the doors but that is probably going to cost money..

  • Update: Replacing the doors didn’t work. Possibly the issue is not so much the doors as a Welcome Wagon glitch/malfunction. Three of the neighbours are now carrying fruticake (which I’d love for them to serve but can’t seem to get them to drop, not even on the handy picnic table set).

    The four of them literally stood on the porch all night while my Sims slept and haven’t left yet.
  • Do you have any mods or cc? It might be mod related or it could be broken cause of the latest patch.
  • Hey @catloverplayer. I do use MCCC only. It definately seems to have been related to the Welcome Wagon, because when I updated MCCC and repaired the game, the four neighbours were still standing on the deck, they dispersed and then a more ‘normal’ welcome wagon sort of ensued.
    I will update if it really turns out their friends can’t get it, but the door seems okay now. One of the delayed welcome wagon came in at least (the others got upset and went away pretty quickly).
