TS1: UI Issues, unclickable areas, and "move_ objects on" doesn't work properly.

I come to this discussion thread to report 4 major interface bugs, as well as issues that are preventing travel to certain lots in Old Town, in The Sims Unleashed. And complaint about icons in the Buy/Build Mode catalog. My game is in Portuguese, but I tested it in English and it's the same.

(I make an appeal at the end).

PROBLEM 1: When I try to travel to the city (hot date) and islands (vacation), and old town (unleashed) the interface simply appears broken. My screen resolution: 1920x1080

 

PROBLEM 2: When I call a car to travel to the old town in The Sims Unleashed, I noticed that there are certain areas in the map view where the mouse cursor simply does not identify the lot, making it impossible for me click to travel to those locations in those areas. So if there is a community lot within the yellow surrounding areas, I will not be able to visit it. My screen resolution: 1920x1080

OBS: This problem only happens when we are in travel mode in old town. The neighborhood in normal mode does not have this bug.

 

WHAT I FOUND OUT: There are a few mods that redo the game's interface (for those who wanted to play in widescreen in the original version of the game). I decided to give them a try and put them into The Sims Legacy to see what happened, and not only did they work fine, fixing all the interface issues, but they also fixed the unclickable lots issue in OLD TOWN.

Obviously I don't want to rely on mods to play, but it was just an interesting discovery.

 

 

PROBLEM 3: The buy/build mode catalog icons have a dark square marked around them. This is really ugly. I've seen several long-time players complaining about this.

There is also a small flaw in the interface, in the Sims' mood section.

 

 

PROBLEM 4:  The "move_objects on" cheat is not working properly. I can't pick up Sims and delete them (this was a classic command to reset Sims' needs). I can only pick up objects to place them outside the lot boundary, but grabbing Sims is not possible. Please fix this.

Please review these questions, some of them are important for the game to function properly. I don't know if you've already heard of these mods that redo the game's interface, but they're really good and make the interface look great. It would be nice to see improvements in this regard. The pop-up overlay of travel windows that's happening in the game now is really weird.
