Both tables are still available at my home store. Did you look at the preteen section? The little one is a preteen bed table.

I mean; this is the after picture, they used to be normal dining tables with white cloth

Are you saying there was another type of table in that room before that was replaced by the preteen bed table?

The only types of dining tables with white cloth in this game that I know of are the new tables from the wedding event (that you cannot really use for dining, the sims won't sit at them), the old wedding table, the white party table and the thanksgiving table. These are all still available in my game. Did I miss one?

Yes this! I swear they used to look different, but I have no idea when they changed :lol:

In the meantime sims do sit down at those tables if they‘re called for a meal. I thought this has changed while the wedding update already, but I‘m not at all sure :?

Honestly, the last decorated table I tried was the halloween table. I had my preteens have a halloween party in a penthouse. For the meal, half of them rushed to the balcony on the upper floor, the others ate standing.

I made my sims try to eat at the wedding tables when we first got them and never read about a change until now. But it is still not possible for them to eat at the small 1x1 wedding tables though they are found in the home store among the dining furniture. I guess this won't be changed so soon.

The architect houses tabs sometimes disappears after updating. It will reappear after awhile.
ah, thank you very much for the reply! :D
(this is why I don't update regularly, the updates are always so scary stressful, aren't they :lol: I hope the French Romance will be worth it)
I think it was the best in a while with nice new furniture, windows, rugs, etc,
yay that is good to know :D (and my Architect tab is back, but ... the houses that I was saving to build are gone and I don't like the new ones :cry: Do previous architect houses come back or is it always only new ones with update?)
I agree with SKatF. French romance is worth it. The houses change every few weeks. Sometimes they bring some back as player favorites, but it's not guaranteed that a house will ever repeat. Sorry you missed out on the house you wanted :(
I'm so wrapped up with all these events around Halloween that I missed the reply, sorry :oops: The French Romance is.. brutal :lol: it is my first event like this that I participate in and it messed up all my sleeping schedule, but I think I might get the chateau (though I think I will have to spend some social points maybe - I panicked at the beginning and already used it on the mega spin plant :lol: ) so at least I will get that house if I missed the one I wanted (it was one of the Dream Weddings Update homes) But I managed to finish the Sims and the City quest (finally) and I like the very first architect house there as well - and it is the cheapest architect house, so yay, might get one as well :D

Now only the charming barber event and then hopefully I'll finally catch up with all the quests :D

Two hints from the German forum:

The wall decoration „Les Herbes qui Hang“ from the french chateau can‘t be placed above counter tops anymore. I tried both ways, placing the decoration first, then the counter top and the other way around.

Building the Beachside Escape (from the real estate tab) on the island should give the ocean view. (This does not apply on all architect homes that look like the real estate home.)

Bummer on the herb thing. I thought it made kitchens look really nice and did it a lot. Appreciate the tip as I will need to try never to move one already placed.

Has there always been a object limit? All the sudden I have houses with a limit and all items in store and inventory are grayed out.
