Can't go to newly owned community lot!
Rayea:
squeezybal, its not a medievil lot is it?
or uses Brastex medievil fairground, and you have familyFunPack?
i had a similar problem with that...i had to load up the lot and take out the wheeled produce bins, for some reason FFP wont let me load a lot with that produce bin on it...:(
also, somehting to look for....what tipped me off that this item was not useable what that, befor i got ffp, i could place the produce bins fine, they snapped to grid and were placeable without having moveObjects on cheat working.
however, once FFP was installed, the wheeled bins were only placeable when the move cheat was turned on.
now if an item has to be placed with move on, it probalby isnt the culprit, but if you suddenly have to have the cheat active to place a normal item down, try taking that item off the lot.
i know its a pain, but better to pick up and move a LOT of items to find the badboy, than to have to remake the lot or just whipe it :) :(

I think I know what your problem is... I had downloaded some great community lot items from SimsConnection for nightlife before OFB came out. They included a bakery set with items that were cloned from video racks, dress racks, and other items that were things you could buy from with a fun quotient.
Soon after, when trying to go to the lot, the taxi with the blue screen would load, but never really finish loading. I would have to restart the game. I couldnt figure out what it was.
Then I was building a community lot while a Sim was on the lot to try and figure out what the hell I had downloaded that was such a problem. It ended up being the items from the set I had downloaded for Nightlife that had not been updated. They included a freezer cloned from a grocery freezer, a bakery rack cloned from one of those upstanding community lot fridges, and other similar items. If I put the offending item on the lot, and went into play mode, everything would pause. Time stood still. I would switch to build mode, delete the offending item, and switch back to play mode. Poof, time ran on.
Check your downloads that are going onto your community lot and make sure they are OFB compatible. You would think a freezer would be compatible from NL to OFB, but it isnt, because now there is new code that allows you to price it cheap, expensive, etc. I know it was these items keeping everything from loading from my experiences building with the active sim on the lot.
In terms of fixing it, I had to use insimenator to teleport the active sim into another family, make her a family member, and sell the lot.
Hope this helps!

I have the same bakery as well as the chocolate D/Ls from Sims Connection and have never had this problem be caused by any of them. I have the same in J'Adore bakery and it has always loaded just fine. I also built a bakery using SC items and it worked too. I have the SC winery and no problem there as well so I think there is more here than meets the eye.
The lot I built that would not load and subsequently bulldozed was a fabulous clothing store.
Squeezybal:
Thanks for all the possibilities, however I have some bakery things and work fine on a different lot, even the chocolate thing. The freezer things as well.
I thought it could be confusion with the walk pattern(store spacing-so they dont conflict). That's not the problem...Im assuming a bug withing the game. I have tried many things, even having someone else buy it, even empty with nothing there but the green sign and a register(maxis register) and same thing, cant get in. Cant even be/get in build mode if a sim owns it. argh...
At this point, having made other lots and such, Im not really missing that lot anymore. If dozing opens it up to be playable again, then goodie. :)
If anyone else has this issue go ahead and post. Im keeping my fingers crossed that someone out there knows how to remedy this without having to demolish hard spent time working on an awsome lot.
Oops, forgot to mention, I do not have FFP...waiting for the patch to fix all the bugs before I get it! heehee
Nothing 'midievil' either...

Just an update,
SC updated their winery and bakery for OFB and I've been ok ever since. Who knows?
