A Sim was walking off the lot without paying. Stopped dead at the boundary, turned invisible and walked back to pay at the till. I have some pics and video of the shopping bag floating purposefully towards the till. Anyone else come across this problem? I didn't notice it pre-patch and I have updated those hacks I'm using. First time it happened I wrote it off as a glitch - second time, I figured I'd better start looking for whatever was buggy. I guess I'll have to take downloads and hacks out and see if I can pin it down, but that's such a pain.
The only other post I found about invisible sims in shops was this one. The author figured it was the clothes buying that caused the problem. My sims were shopping for plants and I think it was two different plant shops. Could be Chanco's problem was shoplifters too.
I had some Invisible townies after changing their clothes.
This happen on community clothing shop lot; Everything went fine as far as the changing of their clothes and the sales, but some of these townies became invisible after changing clothes, I change their clothes with the (recommend an outfit option.). It seem to be a random thing, I had change 4 of townies clothes this way, but 2 became invisible.
I figured this out when I noticed shopping bags floating around the shop, but the sims were invisible, I use the mind control mirror to see who they were, I found it was the same townies that I sold the new outfits to a few hours before on the lot.
