You should check the files you downloaded to see if the terrains are included. If not- check the site where you downloaded the lots from to see if they give you any clues to where you can download the proper terrain paints. Nothing else will fix these lots. You will however need to demolish the lot and I suggest that you delete the house from your bin and re-install it as well- once you've installed the correct terrain paints.

zolabee. Perhaps you could post some pictures of what's happening. Title: Strange flashy blue lots? Post by: zolabee on May 10, 2008, 04:50:31 pm I will later this evening or in the morning. I've waited until the last minute to mother's day shop & am having parents over for dinner tonight so no sims for until later. Thanks!

Title: Strange flashy blue lots? Post by: zolabee on May 11, 2008, 10:56:25 am I know that flashy blue items means there is no mesh, so just delete. I don't know about floors -
Someone also suggested maybe whatever ep or stuff pack it was made with that you don't have. Delete is your friend - sometimes anyway. Title: Strange flashy blue lots?

I don't know about floors - Someone also suggested maybe whatever ep or stuff pack it was made with that you don't have. Delete is your friend - sometimes anyway. No mesh is not necessarily the problem. I've gone into lots and the flashy blue was happening on Maxis items. I've found no rhyme or reason as to why it happens since I'll enter a lot and everything will be fine, but the next time it has flashy items, and then the third time just fine again. Selecting the design tool in buy or build mode, clicking on the flashy item, then canceling the redesign has fixed most if not all the problems I've had. Title: Strange flashy blue lots?
