Greenhouse and Basement kits--is this a known bug or is it a "me" problem?

I decided I could use the new kits, so I bought and installed them. And I couldn't find the items. I repaired the game a couple of times, removed TwistedMexi's Better Build Buy since it wasn't updated for the new kits, repaired again, restarted and then repaired again ... and I figured out why I couldn't find them.

There's no icon on them, so they aren't marked visually as being part of a kit. But they also don't seem to be coded as part of any game packs, or even basegame. The only way to see the items in my game (maybe in others' games) is to not filter the items.

Which makes it tough to find them if you don't already know where they are.

Anyway, problem not solved but at least identified. I don't know whether this is a problem others have had or if its a mod conflict that I need to deal with.

    Do you use Zerbu's mod All Worlds are residential? If so, update it. It will cause this to happen with new kits. There is a new update out now.

    I do. I didn't even think about that being a potential culprit. (One of the reasons I've never gotten into modding myself is that the way seemingly wildly different things are interconnected is baffling to me.)

    I'll get that one updated ASAP.

    Thanks!

    Heya,

    We're tracking an issue with these 2 kits on Answers HQ here. Updates will be posted in that thread.
  • That's good to know, but a different issue. I was seeing them in the EA app fine. I just wasn't seeing the items marked as kits (or basegame) in the game, and that was what RedShoe7 pointed out, a conflict with Zerbu's mod making all worlds residential.

    (Side note: Next big update? All world should be residential. Even Batuu, though I know that would require both remaking the world and having a different deal with Disney/Lucasfilm.)
  • Did you delete the local thumbnail cache file after removing the mods? Maybe that helps.
