24/03/2021 Update: BB mode not working

[ Edited ]

Just updated sims for new patch with bunk beds etc, BB mode isn’t working for objects by rooms, is working for objects but once I click on an item, it will not place the object. I’ve repaired my game, still won’t work. Not sure if it’s a bug that’s came with the update but I’ve never been affected by an update until now. Any suggestions?

Latest Bunk Bed Update broke my Build and Buy Mode. I can't select any items from Build and Buy Mode after update. I can't select anything or drag anything into game.

@corndolphins Me too. I'm a builder it's the only thing I do... Frown
Good to know it's not just me so I know the problem is on EA's end.

Re: I cannot place objects in Build/Buy

@corndolphins @meganmcevillyy and @Rheandor  Please remove the Better Build/Buy mod, if you have it, and delete localthumbcache.package as well.

 

If that doesn't help, or you don't have the mod, please move your entire Mods folder to your desktop, delete localthumbcache (again), and test.

@puzzlezaddict Thank you for the quick help. I had Better Build/Buy. Removing it and deleting localthumbcache worked for me. Thanks a million! :D

Hi! Thank you for your prompt response. I am so glad this problem is not isolated to me.

 

I don’t have this mod, however, I will do this (probably tomorrow evening now as I have work) and let you know. 

Thanks again for your help, fingers crossed it works Standard smile
