It is with a framed photograph. I'm not sure if it is only after university housing wall placement and removal. Placing it in a Moschino pack frame does not fix the issue. Placing it on another wall does not fix the issue and the photograph is basically ruined and unusable because it is just black.

Photographs taken following today's patch will no longer turn black when stored in the Storage Box.

Fixed in Patch 1.101.290/1.81

Please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issue. Please make sure to report exactly what you did when they turned black.

Please also be aware that already broken photos won't revert.

@morghan0513 I just tested this on my save and my photos are fine but I took them after Uni came out.

Are yours pre- or post patch photos ?

[morghan0513]

I think they may be pre. It was really close to the patch so honestly, I'm not sure.

@morghan0513 Could you take a new picture and see if it also happens with taht one ?

[morghan0513]

Yes, I can do that, but it will have to be later. I'll update when I do.

@morghan0513 Tested this in an existing save and those stayed also fine for me.

At what point did you remove your mods ?

[morghan0513]

Oh gosh a long time ago. I haven't used mods in almost a year.

I have this same issue, but it only happens when I store photos in the new bins from University, leave the game (to main menu or completely to desktop) then come back.  They would be black when I got back and pulled them to a wall.  This only happened post-patch.  No mods and completely updated.

@morghan0513 Did you also put them in the storage chest at one point ?

@morghan0513 Tagging for feedback about storage box.
