Sinking BV General Store

<< < (6/7) > >>

ZephyrZodiac:
All you BV players could do with a list of downloaded houses that have been tested and work, or not, and where they work, or not.  Every time one of you finds a house or comm lot that works without any of these problems, you could then just add it to the list!

Yup ;)

I've got a few downloaded lots that cause sinkholes in the middle of normal, non beach terrain as well. One even makes all the ground around it look like desert, which makes no sense since it's not even a desert lot. It worked fine before BV.

My fourth attempt proved fruitless.  Using yet another SC beach terrain, the BV general store sunk, this time changing the landscape to blinding sand (ala Neriana's) and my attempt to bail out without saving, as Jolrei suggested, didn't work.  The community lots seem to stick.

Since I really was looking for a small waterfront community, I tried the Twikkii Village terrain as a subhood.  I like the size and can set between 10 to 15 lots on those empty beachfronts, maybe more.  My fifth attempt was successful with placing the BV general store, so that lot's problems might be related to elevation.  It doesn't seem to like being close to sea level.

None of my own waterfront homes could be placed, with the exception of one home I had built on the lake in Three Lakes.  I was able to place that particular lot on the waterfront in each of the SC terrains, in Bluewater, and now in Heron Bay [ETA: the fifth incarnation of that subhood].  The lakefront geography of Three Lakes must be more friendly.

With all the fussing and moving things around, my landslide in Bluewater disappeared.  Drats.  Had wanted to take a photo.

Well, by the time you folks get all these glitches sorted out, maybe I'll have got my PC fixed, and maybe then I'll get around to installing BV!

J. M. Pescado:
This is a harmless effect produced by the lot having surface features below the waterline. It is not a bug. Place your lot on higher ground, and this will be avoided. On lots with "beach level" terrain, the water level is particularly low, and if you dig a hole in such a lot, it will flood and your lot will render itself in "beach sand" to reflect its adjacency to water.
