Title: Community lot won't open in game Post by: simofborg on February 01, 2007, 05:38:04 pm Hi I created a 5x2 community lot in a custom neighbouhood, I twice tried to send Uni sims to it but it won't open. I get the background noise but it stays in loading mode. I created it residential and converted to community, put it in the lots bin and back into the game as a means of saving it. tried to open it, wouldn't, but after quitting and reloading the game it worked fine. Another problem I have is some lots, custom made and the summerhill lot in veronaville load with a flashing groundcover I can fix veronville by highering the ground but not the other. I think the two problems might be related. I have a relatively new graphic card and new ram was added not long ago.Oh I forgot to say it contains CC but it all works on other lots, it is such a pretty lot I want to be able to use it.
Thanks for reading this rather long appeal for help. God bless and have a great day. Title: Community lot won't open in game Post by: BeosBoxBoy on February 02, 2007, 02:49:14 am simofborg, were there Sims on the lot? or maybe a custom refrigerator?
Title: Community lot won't open in game Post by: simofborg on February 02, 2007, 06:26:50 am No I didn't put any sims on the lot, although I built it residential I intended it to be community. However I did put a custom fridge on the lot, is that significant?
Today I built the inn part of the lot on a 2x3 lot in community mode and it opened fine the only problem was my sims couldn't order food but townies were being fed Okay. Thank you for taking the time to answer.

If you left the mailbox and trash can and didn't delete them and add the phone and the trash basket then it screws everything up. Conversely, having the phone and the trash basket on a residential lot will cause the same issue.Title: Community lot won't open in game Post by: BeosBoxBoy on February 02, 2007, 02:56:19 pm Simofborg:
