We need more people replying and pressing 'Me Too!' make this issue known to EA, I use mirrors a lot for my builds and it's really annoy having to see weird grey lines and disappearing walls in the reflection. It's been 8 months since the September update this thing started and only part of the problem was supposedly been fixed when they fixed windows and doors but it seem to have been made worse.

When will they fix this issue?

@Vaurthakan They partially fixed it. At least we don't get the window and door-arch frames showing with solid walls in the frames now.

But... The only view that shows correctly in mirrors is the walls completely down for some reason.

If they just made it so that walls-up and walls-cutaway did the same, we'd all be happy.

Yeh I am aware, just when I thought they fixed the window patch they seemingly made it worse. I've been actively trying to get the EA Developers attention on this issue; messaging various YouTubers, The Sims communities...etc. In my honest opinion I think this should be a main priority on the Laundry List as it is a cosmetic issue. I use a lot of mirrors in my games especially my 'Big Brother House' builds, it just looks hideous if you can imagine.

@Vaurthakan Completely agree! C'mon they've got it 1/3 fixed.
