Wonky Colored Question Mark Tiles
Tangie:
Just FYI, I just recently got the riddler tiles at the Art Gallery after patching to 1.4.6. I decided to play an older neighborhood that started lagging for me pretty badly, but didn't delete it in the hopes that someday I could go back to it. I also recently remodeled the Wolff house to add a bathroom and two small bedrooms on the second floor. After that I noticed the Art Gallery with the Riddler tiles when my sim sped by it on its way somewhere but did not go check Wolff or Goth afterwards to see if they were also affected. I haven't played that 'hood again lately so I'll have to go check it. I've also been building an "ideal" neighborhood (which had taken me about a week!).
BTW, I did a search on the EA tech help section and one person claimed that it was related to the fences railing (indoor) they put on those lots. The developers used railings that matched the stair rails, but these fences/rails are not available in the game. Hence, the theory was that they created them using some kind of method that would eventually bork those lots. I take that with a grain of salt, but an interesting theory regardless. If you check, all three of these lots DO have railings that match the stairs, and they are not styles that are available in build mode.

Thanks Simsample! I will try that with this game, and eventually try to rebuild Sunset Valley to both Awesomized & my standards (I can't stand most of the existing houses). When I have started a game in the past with Twoftmama's Awesomized save file, though, I have not noticed the problem. This is only recently after actually trying to revise the Goth & Wolff houses. Subsequently started a new game with the same file and the problem is still there, even though these are the original houses, which makes it seem that it is a cache issue, but I deleted all of those files and replaced the Sunset Valley object cache file.
I am also going to try your other suggestion to replace the Sunset Valley World file.

I have used Coconnors Savegame and repainted the Library. I saved the Walls and Floors used on the Lot from a fresh created Hood into CaSt, and repainted the Library. The Lot is fixed with doing so.
It looks like the Lots are corrupted and have lost the information what Floor- and Wallcovers are used. You have to replace all tiles on the whole Lot not only the riddler tiles.

Thanks for the info, Havelock!

Rosharley mentioned this fix in #38, however there is also indication that this is a temporary fix (toward the end of the post).

It would be good to find out why the corruption is occurring, and prevent it.
