I built an upper floor on a house which already has the beautiful vista.
Weird thing is, when the sims are in the bedroom, the moodlet goes away, and it reappears when they go in any other room on that floor. The only difference I spotted is that the bedroom has a big panoramic window, while the bathroom and the nursery have small windows which barely let the light pass through.
I wonder what this could mean.


I have noticed this too. I am building a house right now and it has beautiful vista.

There is one bathroom that is complete and decorated but has no windows, when he enters it he looses the moodlet. I have another bathroom that is not complete, it has one of those little windows, and all it has is a toilet, when he goes in that bathroom the moodlet stays.  In another room I have tried a few sizes and number of windows, I even covered the whole outside wall with windows and still no moodlet.

Windows seem to matter but I am not sure if the size of the window does.  I think it may be how many windows, and maybe how big the room is compared to how many windows there are. In the bedroom he didn't get the moodlet until I added the last window, and when I take it away he looses it. I tried with big windows and little ones, it doesn't seem to matter as long as there are 5 windows, or 4 windows and a door leading to outside.

Out of interest, do beach community lots behave in the same manner, or is it tied to the beach lot designation?

Sleepycat:

I moved a sim into the empty lot across from the beach and he had the Beautiful Vista moodlet even though the lot was empty. That was when I realized that moving houses wasn't such a good idea. I had used that lot before but had moved a sim & house to it and they never got the Beautiful Vista moodlet and at the time, I didn't realize they should have.  :P

I have just used "Move lot" in "Edit Town" to move the Wolff household/lot to the suburbs as I want to build on the site.
Am I correct in thinking that the Beautiful Vista "hidden object" will have gone with that lot and will return if I move it back?

If so, then i assume my only option will be to play the Wollf family, move them out, knock the house down manually, THEN build.

OMG what a ridiculously retarded way of doing things, Blows claxon at EA team, WAKEY, WAKEY, you have work to do...

Here's some info on beach lots and other community lots:

No, I believe that this isn't correct.  Your beautiful vista will disappear when you move the lot, but you will not be able to get it back.  Once a beautiful vista is gone, it's gone (unless you restore the neighborhood from a backup that still has it).

As long as you still have the beautiful vista on the lot, then moving the family out, knocking down the house manually and then building is the only way to keep the buff.
