@limmy1212 Merged your post with existing thread.

Is it also the Honey Dew lot for you ?

Re: Build mode walls

I think I might be having a version of this issue but with homes downloaded from the gallery. When placed, these homes will lose their walls and sometimes the foundation. When I try to redraw the foundation/deck or walls/fences, I get this "conflicting block clusters" error. Because the original builders did not have this issue, I have a bad feeling about testing this issue. I'm beginning to get the impression that it's a individual issue or one specific to the system someone has. I get a similar issue with some CC builds, where despite having all of the CC (I triple checked), placing a lot will delete the walls and foundation. However in this case, I am able to redraw the walls / foundation and replace the original wall patterns and foundation.

 

The amount of repairs and clean installs done have no effect on the results. Is anyone having this issue with gallery lots as well? If you need any clarification, let me know.

Re: Build mode walls

@MellowMoth There's an issue with foundation and wall paintings making walls/foundations disappear if you don't have the wall paper for them.

This happens with/without cc as it also happens when you don't own a certain pack that was used.

Don't think it's the same issue

The thread for it is here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Foundation-and-walls-disappear-when-placing-certai...

Hiya!

 

I've been building on the same lot, Honeydew, in Britechester, and it's giving me the same problem, please find attached screenshots.

 

It was working fine yesterday but when I came to continue the building today it was giving this notification.

I've tried removing the foundation, deleting the floors above, bulldozing the house and re-placing it from the gallery.

Has anyone found a solution to it yet?

 

All the best!
