90% of Sunset Valley lots gone after returning from vacation.
anelca:
I completely reinstalled.
Everything worked tickety boo so I added in floorthickness, nointro and nomosaic mods....still fine
ditto with some CC sofas (Karlstad)
added in Aikeas default skins and Morgades nipples ...OK
added in more CC mainly paintings...still OK
Loading times so far reasonably quick and game runs quite smoothly with all graphic options high and on, except for distance and neighbouring lots.
I only can have 2G RAM and have an ATI X1300 card, so not superspecs
added in some CC from Stylist...loading time to Lot absolute pants, therefore removed which improved that
yeah, it's trial and error, and we might have to be very choosy about our CC.
Over at MTS there is a thread in Sims discussion which is suggesting CC of .package variety is causing a lot of people's problems, whereas EA content is fine. I have Store stuff by the ton (thanks to sharing by others here) and loath as I am to say this, it seems not to negatively impact on my game.
Krib:
I'm finding now that there are two ways I can glitch it --
1) If I load a save from before the 1.7 patch with all my CC (Lemoncandy included), it's instablue once I've opened that game, saved it, and reloaded. As with everyone.
2) If I remove all my .packages, and run from the launcher with the "disable CC" box checked (so no .sims3packs either), when I load one of my saves the Goths house and the museum are blue. Once I've saved that and then reloaded / played with it awhile (sometimes it takes a few reloads), everything's blue.
The fucking question mark tiles are to blame here, I just know they are.
The only way I can avoid getting the blue is by making a new town in my 1.7 patched game and then playing the game, Let's Sort Through Millions of .package Files. I can delay the process by removing just Lemoncandy .packages along with plants and clutter, but the Goth and Museum lots are always blue when I load an old save.

If you have any stairs remove them. I've put back everything but lemoncandy and stairs. It's working, not great but playable.
Moryrie:
I had an issue with some candle recolor by Damned Citizen. Caused the blue lots. No issue with that now though.

I did. It happens on all pre-patch saves, even with zero CC included. The solution for me is just to make a new town and add my lots. Sucks, but there it is. I don't want to spam the thread with my personal game issues though, so I'll just hang back now and see if anyone comes up with something that can fix my old saves.
