Anyhew, just so's I know, where exactly was this lot that you found hiding in a mountain, just so that I don't repeat this error by accident myself. lol
Val did the terrain surgery and one of her houses ended up in a mountain. Many others were lost at sea if I remember correctly (although she forgot to do a screenshot...ahem). When you do the surgery, the houses will be scattered all over the place and you have to manually move them so they sit on a road-side. AncientSim's houses were all invisible after the surgery, and Ancient had to mouse over the new terrain to find them, but I think that was so because something was done/left undone before surgery.

I went to the backup from Friday, found the occupied house, and simply placed it elsewhere in the neighborhood, avoiding the lotbin altogether. I found four or five other (unoccupied!) houses in that same mountain! They were "invisible" because they were actually inside the mountain (or "under" it). Hopefully I got them all this time.

Well, I know that before I knew about the occupied houses buggering your game, I downloaded a couple. One or two I actually played in my custom neighborhood that I made (without noticing any troubles). Can I just evict the people, and move them back in and I'll be all okey dokey, or will the whole game eventually become a bfbvfos? Or just that one neighborhood? Should I bulldoze the houses? Ack!

Brynne:
I'm in the same boat. I haven't downloaded any occupied lots since learning about the inevitable horrors of it all, but I have a few from way back when. One of those is the one that I suspect caused my problems. I don't even play these families! Unfortunately, they've wandered onto my lot in the past, so my sims have memories of them. I want them gone gone gone! I was playing my latest backup last night, and the sim from that damn house of pure evil kept trying to wander the sidewalk in front of my house. I zapped him off immediately with the teleporter shrub every time. Why must he torment me so?! I hate him hate him hate him! Deep breath, now... >:(
ZephyrZodiac:
Have you got the Townie and NPC zapper? Sorry, actual name is NPC and Visitor zapper.
Brynne:
Yes, actually. I hadn't even considered using it, but I think I'll give it a try now.
