[OPEN] [BDK] No Dust Appearing on Residential Lots

[cr8201]

@raiface It’s still broken for me. I thought the same thing. They fixed the animation but didn’t fix the actual broken dust system. lilsimsie or James Turner must have complained about the animation.

@cr8201 Whats crazy to me is they fixed the wants/fears toggle which had the exact same issue as this but reversed. (wants and fears toggle reverteted to on whereas dust reverts to off) which tells me the team know how to fix it but simply dont want to. I hope they fix it as personally I will buy the kit as soon as they fix the toggle

Not sure if this can be considered a workaround but mod creator LittleMsSam has a mod accessible through this link . It's titled "Enable Dust Workaround Fix" This has "fixed" my game in some sense. I just need to turn disable and enable the kit in settings once more after downloading this mod. Now dust forms regularly for me even after my Sim moved households.

I didn’t start noticing it until last month because I did disable the dust at one point. But recently I enabled it again and I noticed that the house has been clean and dust free for weeks. I thought it was me disabling it before, I tried restarting the game and checking for updates but nothing. I even thought there was no dust because the family didn’t own a vacuum, lol.

Has there even been any indication that they are aware of this and plan on fixing it? I can't understand how they can keep selling something when like 90% of the gameplay just doesn't work at all. This is the only gameplay kit it looks like we are ever going to get and it doesn't even work, so upsetting.

Same on XB1 still no dust...also, even tho the floors are sparkling, the sims still get the "somebody lives here" moodlet which is caused by (slightly) dusty surroundings (says so in the description of the moodlet)...weird

@Edouble72 I'm having this problem as well. I even did things like having parties, letting dishes sit around, not taking the garbage out. I just couldn't get any dust to appear.

Dust and Dust Bunnies will show up after a reload, now where did I put that Dust Dandy Cordless Vacuum?

Fixed in Patch 1.95.207/1.69

I've had the Bust the Dust Kit for about 5 days now and not one speck of dust has appeared. I got the pack mainly for the Dust Bunnies, but no dust is accumulating. I have "Enable Dust System" checked in the Pack Settings. The floors are constantly sparkling even after in-game weeks. My households don't even own any sweepers because I don't want them to use them autonomously, so they aren't cleaning it up on their own. Is there something I'm missing to cause dust to accumulate, or is this a bug?
