I got this shadows, too. But I don't think there's something showing through. We can't have angled courtyards or rooms and it's moving all over the place when you shift your view. Maybe they tried to introduce something like a clouded sky and light and shadow to the game and screwed up. We'll see. But I agree, this is quite annoying and very spurious.contrarysims wrote: ↑07 Jun 2017, 06:26 I have also noticed some strange visual glitches with the balconies and patios.
There are also some ominous shadows on my houses with balcony rooftops, both in town view and when the lot is open. This house looks particularly weird, I think because there's internal courtyards and balconies that are showing through:

Sorry, I messed up editing the quote before.SIMazing wrote: ↑08 Jun 2017, 04:01Just to add to this: you don't see the whole pool when you click on the (i).

The present at the front of a lot was a one time gift of two keys.
Personally, and as a long time player who doesn't spend money in the game, I'm super excited over the new mystery boxes! And it seems that I've unlocked these items so that I can purchase them freely now. I'm amazed! Here is a pic of my last two fortunate boxes (top two rows in one box, bottom row in previous box):

I wholeheartedly agree! The new boxes give long time players lots of exciting new prizes unlocked. As well, your picture shows we can still win LPs and 6 weeks to collect 6 keys is way better than the ten required

Re: Penthouse Update - Changes
Rethinking that theory, I got another one. As this behaviour coincides with the fix of other glitches in the game, EA bargained the fix of the other glitches for this visual defects. I guess they are perfectly aware of the problems but ignoring them for the moment.jessica wrote: ↑08 Jun 2017, 04:38I got this shadows, too....

Re: Penthouse Update - Changes
I just noticed something new in this update. When Sims watch tv and sit sideways, they now look sideways as well. Only problem is.....THEY LOOK THE WRONG WAY.

I just had to try that, you're right! It's just the slightest incline of the head in the wrong direction, as if they're expressing their disdain for the show.

Re: Penthouse Update - Changes
I have a game that is fairly new - I've not done any of the DIY quests or the multi-story renovations quest so normally I can't see most of the architect houses but on this update I can and I can build them. There's a notification that I can't edit the house.
I can't delete the extra floors or edit the balconies or the basement. I could delete the rooms on the upper floors - even when there were still rooms on the floors above (i.e., I could delete rooms on the second floor even when there were rooms directly above on the third floor.).

Are you guys missing some items? I used to have more than 10 of the pink record player. I removed 2-3 from the houses because they were floating. Now I don't have a any of it in my inventory.
Re: Penthouse Update - Changes
Oh, I found it. It's in the pre-teens section! Sorry!
Re: Penthouse Update - Changes
I want Lorita's hairdo. The gal in pink from the you tube videos. Is that her name? I haven't skimmed all the posts yet & am a little confused. I hope we get her hairdo, or at least can purchase it.mockingbird288z wrote: ↑05 Jun 2017, 23:33 The Love is Blinds event will be a hobby event with the woodworking hobby and the original long hair event will be back.
