[WORKAROUND] [CL] Highlighting of new items stuck in Decorations Category

[texeganjane]

As of the latest patch and pack, this is still an issue.

Hey all of YOu    I might found what is wrong -  you need to type testingcheats true, then bb.ingoregameplayunlocksentitlement - and in this category which is highlited - search for the bunch of letters from fans - and change all colours options for that object. For me the highligting disappeared

FINALLY! Thank you so much @ilusiek! I did that and it worked! :D Thank you once again! YEY

Didn't fix it for me, it is still an issue in my game

I tried a brand new TS4 folder and repaired the game, issue persists.

That worked for me! Thank you! I have OCD and this was driving me nuts! Can't tell you how many times I've uninstalled and reinstalled and repaired ugh!

I see exactly why this happened now. The letters are technically two different items. Two of the four recolors are called "Direct From The Fans"  but the other two are "Letters by the pile"

Thank you so much, ilusiek!

I tried the fix but it only showed the ghoulish guitar as new addition to my items and the decoration section is still highlighted golden but no items with a star are present.

Could you try the suggestion just a few posts above yours to try all the color options on that one item.

@crinrict Hello

[quote]For anyone who wants to fix this by yourself:

 1. Locate your "ReticulatedSplinesView" file in your "The Sims 4" folder (the same place for your mods folder)

2. Open the file with a hex editor (I use HxD which is free)

3. Search for "1D 10 01" and replace them all with "1D 10 04" (datetype is hex-values)

4. Save the file and start your game; the new item highlighting that was previously stuck should be gone[/quote]

Zero Mods / Zero CC (Do not use either)

I started a brand new game with a fresh folder. I intended to follow the instructions above but searched for 1D 10 01 and 1D 10 04 and neither were there. The coding may have changes but the Clutter category still shows highlighted as having "new" items.

I've accepted a different post as solution now that seems to work for this particular issue

Try that.
