My Neighbourhood is sinking lol
tragedymcneil:
I am not kidding it is literally sinking. the land surrounding my various lots*including the other lots* goes down, way, way down into the ground or they go way, way up. Let me see if I can get pictures. They will be from when I was playing my broke family. maybe I just have really evil sims and they are going to hell slowly lol Seriously though my neighbourhood has 1000+ sims in it I do not want to lose all that work. :( I will post the pictures as soon as I find them, anyone have any clue how to fix this or what caused it?
BeosBoxBoy:
I have seen this before, but it was due to a neighbourhood becoming corrupted. You may have reached over-load.
Ninja:
Have you tried making a new neighbourhood?
Chairman Greg:
I'm guessing that Beosboxboy is right; you might be overrunning memory and so that the game is writing some other kind of data into the space where it keeps track of the terrain map. If that's the case, adding more RAM to your computer might fix it.
I'd recommend making a backup copy of that neighborhood before trying anything, and even before starting the game again. (Just select the neighborhood directory, control-c to copy, navigate to somewhere else on your computer, and control-v to paste. Then go make yourself a sandwich while you're waiting. Walk the dog. Balance your checkbook. Trim your toenails. Wash the car. It'll probably be done by then.)
Then, as Taylah suggested, try creating a new neighborhood and look to see if lots are OK in that one. If that works, it might be worth it to try to restore the shape of the terrain in your neighborhood.
Instructions on how to modify the terrain are Around Here Somewhere. (On MTS2, perhaps? Surely someone will know.) I know I've seen them; it involves having a neighborhood with the terrain you want, and then copying its terrain map onto your old neighborhood.

I already modified the terrain thats when the problems started. It would suck if it is because I have a large city, I want to have large cities , they are tons of fun. When I had the other terrain with 1000 sims in it , it was perfect. Now I have sinking sims and toddlers that act like adults and faces floating above the sims head instead of on their faces. My husbands neighbourhoods are fine though. Could modifing it the first time have done this?
