move objects cheat (not downloaded mod!) not working properly?

I was very happy when EA decided to implement the move objects cheat again because I love placing decorations EVERYWHERE so the houses I build actually look like someone's living in them 🙂

But I realised that the cheat isn't what it's used to be. I can playe the objects all over another but when I save, exit and restart the game, the objects that couldn't have been placed without the cheat simply vanish. 

For example: I got an table with a computer on it, a plant, some pictures and maybe a plushed toy or two, all placed with the cheat and alt, I exited the game and resumed playing the next day but when I started, the computer was gone also the plant and a picture leaving the table with 3 small decorations behind!

It's really annoying and I wanted to ask if someone else have this problem? Or maybe had his problem and solved it already? And if you solved it, how?

(I delete the cache files every week or something to prevent some other issues as the cache files where the source for bugs and issues in the Sims 2 😉)

(P.S.: I hope my English isn't that bad since I'm no native speaker :0)

One thing I will note however, is that MOO'd objects disappearing upon loading a save game is a common occurrence.  In order to prevent it, it is actually better if you not only save with bb.moveobjects turned on, but also make sure you turn it on before re-entering your saved lot.  For instance, what I do is to load my save, enter an unrelated lot, turn bb.moveobjects on, and then enter my saved lot.  Since following that routine, I have not lost any MOO'd objects.  I have never lost any terrain paint though, under any conditions.
