Nasty Environment score on downloaded house

(1/6) > >>

purplehaze:
Here's the skinny: I downloaded a house from a featured creator at MTS2. Played it for about 3 Sim days. I finally had the garden up to snuff and called the Garden Club. When the rep arrived she immediately left stating that ' there's an emergency on the lot'.  During my playing time there was only one thunderstorm.; No flaming bags of poo, no deaths and no fires.

I walked my sim around the lot ,mind you it took a while, this was a massive lot, and narrowed it down to the front of the house. It stretches from the driveway to the chimney. I PM'd the creator to see if they had any of the aforementioned problems  (fire,death,poo) when play-testing the lot. I haven't heard back from her yet.

Here's my question: how do I figure out what is causing this? Do I use the stuck object remover or the lot debugger? If I need to use the debugger, exactly how do I find out what's causing this problem? I haven't used the debugger, and thought that someone with more experience could shed some light on the situation and possible fix. I spent quite a lot of time retooling this lot for my family and I am loathe to give it up without a fight.

If you have produce garden, make sure there are not any broken sprinklers. It is sort of hard to tell, but having one immediately plunges Environment.

SaraMK:
I would burninate the affected area using the stuck object remover. This will get rid of any possible stuck "emitters" like stink, etc. Trashed environment is very often the result of something invisible being stuck. This is also the easiest thing to try first.

purplehaze:
Thanks Sara. When I fire up the game again, I'll try that first.  Oh, BTW, I don't have any sprinklers. But that's a good call. I've had that problem before.  It can't be the greenhouse, as it's at the back of the lot and the environment scores there are sky-high.

If the stuckobject remover doesn't work, I'll be back here bleating for help with the lot debugger.  :P

Since installing the Seasons patch, I'm having occasional errors popping up for a fire during thunderstorms. I'm assuming something is going wrong with a tree being hit because I'm not seeing any fire. Turning on debug mode could solve the mystery, at least.
