After bulldozing Cypress terrace, placing a user created lot from the Gallery, and deleting the mod folder, this is what happened :o  Every piece of vegetation vanished (makes sense since this was the Seasons update which affects all vegetation).  Putting the mod folder back and reloading an earlier lot fixed the problem.  Might be a second issue here...but this last patch messed a lot of stuff up. 

 

 

And yes, the darkening of the lot happened after removing the mod folder, you should be able to reproduce it.  I have attached the screenshot of the map view after removing the mod folder, and exiting the game using "save and exit."  It does not happen if you save a game manually, and then exit without without the auto save option

from your latest pics, I do believe it's the same issue as the other thread, so I merged.

Should one get solved and not yours, you can always open a new thread again :D

^ Yes! I noticed this happened to me too in maps view. I don't even have the Vampires game either but my house looks a lot darker in maps now.

I can confirm this is fixed in my game with today's patch, but only if I start a new game. I tested several times starting in different Seasons and it seems fine.

 

I don't know if it would eventually correct itself in an existing game or not, because I didn't want to have to try and play through different Seasons and weather types. I was planning on moving my Sims to a new save anyway for Seasons, so I'm just glad to see this is fixed so quickly!

The stats.fill_commodities_household testing code works.  The lot is no longer darkened when you save and exit.  Seems this patch worked to correct these issues.  Thanks devs!

 

There is a new issue though. The glass roof makes the floor vanish under it once placed, as the attic in this structure is not really recognized by the game as a 3rd floor (it is the space under the shingled roof).  When uploading to the gallery, this lot shows only the shingled roof for the 3rd floor view in the gallery (not the stuff under it)

There's a few glass rof issues, I think. Please check the buy/build mode compiled list and if your issue is not on there, create a new thread for that.
