Title: Gaping in my buy mode Post by: PolecatEZ on 2012 December 30, 18:35:00 I've spent the better part of my vacation satisfying my OCD by ensuring my content collection is complete. However, I'm still left with infuriating gaping holes in a few categories. I tried to use tools and various helpful websites before attempting to ask here. The tool developed for this purpose (S3SBrowser) is very spotty, only detecting half my crap. Catalogue sites are also incomplete.
I'm left missing 3 beds and a toilet that I can't account for, if any fellow OCD folks would like to take a peek in their catalogue and let me know the following Jeapardy questions: #1 Sink for 500! #4 Bed for 1700! #1 Misc Electronics for 1! There's also a few deco and light items I'm missing, but if I can ID the set that the above came from, the rest should fall into place. My bet is a bad install on a pack that's causing me to miss a few things. I'll be overjoyed to reciprocate, especially when it comes to your own gaping. Thank you in advance for looking at mine. Update: I dug through the patch .package by hand and came up with a few things, namely an Edwardian bathroom set that they haven't released yet (forgot?). Still digging for the beds and a random sink. Update 2: Found a random bed that was never released, maybe, or was just promotional. Modern Asian Double-Bed for 1600. Nowhere to be had, everything else that looks like it is different price. Maybe they just fucked up the price in the patch though.

I just recently had to re-install all of my store stuff; with the exception of the Iams pet starter set, it got everything, even showed me things I had missing.

I just recently had to re-install all of my store stuff; with the exception of the Iams pet starter set, it got everything, even showed me things I had missing. Its showing me as having about 75% of what I actually have, even with the backup folder search checked. Isn't the Edwardian bathroom stuff from the Regal Living set? Nope, Regal Living Set is 100% already accounted for, and the prices are different for these entries in the patch code - the costs match up to my missing items though.

Title: Re: Gaping in my buy mode Post by: kissing_toast on 2012 December 31, 05:33:52 Well when you put it like that. I actually do have quite a few blank thumbnails. I don't have the time nor patience right now to do any real digging but like you said, they may just be in the patch or PEBKAC or whatever. I wouldn't worry too much about them.

Really, nobody could be arsed to peak in their game catalogue? Title: Re: Gaping in my buy mode Post by: Painkiller on 2013 January 01, 11:40:18 I don't have any gaps but I don't install all the store either. However things like sinks and elec stuff I always install them. I checked ingame: I have no elec misc item costing 1§ and no sink for 500. But I do have 2 store beds costing 1700: the Mediterranean Villa one and the old castle set bed.

These items haven't even been released yet. They're only in the store patch. If you dig further you'll see other things that never came out, like another pool ladder, a giant chocolate fountain and a smoothie maker. Also the flippin' Bavarian Bistro rabbithole they never bothered to release. There's a heap of stuff but you're looking for things nobody has, so don't worry about it. Edit: Sorry, I didn't see the updates to your original post. I'm intrigued about the Modern Asian bed, since that'd be the original TS2 store one they forgot to transfer to the Asian Fusion TS3 set. The misc electronics item is an unreleased Victorian Steampunk phone. The other bed is the Fleur de Lys one from TSM. |
