Basically the game isnt recognizing its a window. It happens with open door frames or regular doors too. The doors are functional but in game the windows look like walls with a window frame like...
Ideas
I'm having this issue where my windows and doors will become part of the wall and I have to go onto build mode and select, and put back down in the exact same spot they were then it's fine, then another window/door will do the exact same any reason why??
I'm not using mods/cc as I'm on console, and build cheats are switched off, proving it's a perfectly fine place to have said window/door without conflicts?
It also happens to both inside and outdoor doors
Still happening, if anyone knows why id love to hear :)
Same here. Clicking the doors/windows in build mode resets them, but it's unclear what causes them to... bleed together with walls (?) in the first place. PS4 here, so no mods, of course.
Maybe just a console glitch then, it's a tiny thing but so annoying 🤣
I'm on xbox, and it happens to me as well. Clicking on the door or window in build buy fixes it. I have had a few doors vanish after I leave build buy, and I suspect that its connected to this.
I also have this problem sometimes… I've had this problem for so long that I'm slowly not even noticing it anymore. When this happens to me, all I have to do is go into build mode and fix it. I play on PS4
This was a reported bug on AHQ. It had been open for quite a while but was acknowledged by EA and last year they asked for additional info/saves (from PS). So they are aware of it. As part of the bug report players had sent in images of the problem. So since it's been brought to their attention, hopefully it will be addressed. It's affected my game since the start, in fact I had it with Sims 3 too funnily enough. There's nothing really that can be done to prevent it, I've just learned to check doors and windows before leaving build mode and click on them all to restore them before returning to live mode. If I do it as I'm building they'll only disappear again.
But they are definitely aware and hopefully we supplied enough info to get a fix at some point 🤞.
I have that too. From the beginning, ever since I play the Sims 4. It would be nice if this could be fixed as it doesn‘t seem to affect PC Players.
I play on the PS5.I get it on pc too - it’s been happening for like a year but I haven’t bothered trying to fix it until now bc it’s just annoying not game breaking 🙃
Okay, then that‘s new. Well, there have been quite a few Updates in that time.
Yesterday I went from live mode to build mode, where I placed an object. Then I went back to live mode, and the door looked like the picture from the Thread creator. That‘s annoying because I then had to go back to build mode to update the door.
This definitely shouldn‘t be like that.
I’m a pc player and it’s happening in my save. It happened while I had no cc but I do have them rn. But they’re all updated I spent like 5 hrs making sure. And I used to be vanilla for so long and I had this problem still. Not just console
this is happening to me too, im on my computer without mods
Me too, I'm on PC with mods.
Still the same, adding a picture from today so hopefully EA team
sees
cbarber89 are you using MoveObjects when building ? I know you said build cheats are switched of but I want to make sure that's what you mean.
Yes move objects turned off :) I will use it for other items but I never do for windows/doors. The picture above was with a brand new save, on console, I've not had it for a while, but after this picture I had nearly every other window do this, and some doors, clicking on it and placing it back makes it look normal again but if you go onto live mode with a door like this they don't/can't use it :)
