@pamela071 we could really use more detail here, especially image(s) of what you're seeing.  It's natural for walls to be dark if they are in areas not exposed to lighting.  Your graphics settings and graphics card may also influence how well you see colors in the game... 

 

I'll first ask the disclaimer questions:  are you using any mods/CC?  If so, please temporarily remove them from your game.  Are you full up to date with patches for the game (via Origin)?  If not, please update the game to the latest version.  Once you've completed the above two steps, clear your cache and repair the game (repair option is in Origin).

 

Having gone through all that, the next question would be did you build the walls you're referencing via the room or custom room tool?  Or did you use the wall tool?  Do you have lighting near any of the walls?  Were you building above ground or in the basement?  And again, if you can upload some images of what you're seeing to an image hosting web site, it would be very helpful.

Hi, the same thing is happening to me and there is no way to fix it. Whenever you place walls, instead of it being white, they are a dark blue. You might be thinking, oh well you can just paint it. Well, let's say I want it yellow. It would just turn into whatever blue and yellow would make, so like green.

I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.

If you have any issues with Sims 4 please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve it.
