Re: [ECO] Community Object Showing as DEBUG in Build Mode

Hero

The Community Voting Board is no longer listed as a DEBUG item, no longer has a defective thumbnail, and can be placed within the Lot.

Fixed in Patch 1.67.45/ 1.32

If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

Good Luck

@BentySpears I'm facing the same issue. It seems each patch breaks more the game

I see it too. You can work around this by enabling the bb.showhiddenobjects cheat and placing one of the other available boards:

I'm having the same issue... thought it might be CC interfering but I took everything out and its still showing as Debug.

So EA broke something somewhere...

What is your current game version number? the most recent i cant find where to look for that
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? all expansions, all game packs, toddler stuff pack, vintage
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I'm not sure. I discovered it by trying to utilize the NAP board in my sims neighborhood in the newcrest world. It says that i cant vote on community spaces that are not in my neighborhood.
What happens when the bug occurs? tried to utilize the NAP board in my sims neighborhood in the newcrest world. It says that i cant vote on community spaces that are not in my neighborhood. but i am in my neighborhood. i thought it was a mod issue. So, i removed them, the cache file and repaired my game. well now, when i try to find a NAP board to create the community space - it literally comes up as a big X with **DEBUG**. there are no mods in my game. i have done everything I can think of. This is a major hole in my gameplay.
What do you expect to see? I want to be able to utilize the community NAP board in every single neighborhood correctly.

Please describe the patch or change you made. I downloaded the most recent patch from 7/23.

So essentially I went to Newcrest and attempted to begin a Community Space. So, I noticed that it said i couldnt vote on boards that were not within the neighborhood. WEll, I was within the correct neighborhood as shown by the eco footprint split. I figured it was mod related, which I only have a single mod I use. I removed it. Then I realized I had a patch. Installed that. restarted. went to do the same thing over again, only when I click the Community board required for the lot - it doesnt appear clickable. It shows a giant red X with **DEBUG** showing if i hover over it. Exit game. delete cache. repair game. restart. same problem.........only now ive discovered that its a problem in other neighborhoods as well.

Eco Lifestyle Community Board missing

★★ Novice

Trying to find the EL Community Board and can only find a selection for a *DEBUG* item in its place.  When I go to a lot with one already there, it is present but unable to be cloned, and it still shows as *DEBUG* in the inventory.

Not sure, but this does seem to have occurred from the last update.

 

I did test with no mods and ran a repair with no changes.07-25-20_8-40-10 PM.png

Luckily I had already placed mine on the community space lot I was building, but I also get the DEBUG menu item with a big red cross and I am unable to place it.

Yes the community board was moved to debug items with the latest patch. I don't know why.
