Title: Invisible Garbage Cans? Post by: rufio on 2008 October 15, 00:17:38 I have noticed that recently some of the garbage cans on residential lots have become invisible. This doesn't really bother me much; it looks kind of funny when they take out the trash, but that's it. Is this just a graphical glitch? Or a side-effect of some hack? Or a sign of impending doom for the neighborhood?

Title: Re: Invisible Garbage Cans? Post by: Bleached on 2008 October 15, 09:51:02 You might have accidentally downloaded a lot or something that came with a hack. The same thing happened to me about a month back, and it turned out to be a hack. I don't know how it got in my downloads folder, but it was there.

Title: Re: Invisible Garbage Cans? Post by: spaceface on 2008 October 15, 17:11:34 I got the invisible trashcan on my other lots, as soon as I had placed one of Jessla's lots. Mean sims would knock the blasted thing over and then I couldn't direct my playables to pick it up. I deleted all the hacks that had crept in, for sanity's sake.

I thought I clean installered it, but I guess I must have missed something. Quote from: tngrspacecadet I got the invisible trashcan on my other lots, as soon as I had placed one of Jessla's lots.

I haven't had problems picking up the garbage can - it's just a matter of knowing where to click and realizing that it's been kicked over. :-\ Quote from: jolrei Pictures? They lower the bag into the invisible can, and then the bag sort of dissipates into thin air. Maybe I'm just easily amused.

There's a hack on MTS2 (IIRC) that makes it so that the trashcans can't be kicked over. I'm thinking of installing it (if I can find it again) because I never notice the trash pile until it's attracted roaches! Title: Re: Invisible Garbage Cans?

Lovely apartments <3 And it really is a lot nicer looking without that ugly aluminum racket about. |
