I screwed up China

[Gelina]

Whenever I visit China, the market is missing (see picture).  Any ideas on how to fix it?

[Spineraker]

Re-load, quick! I had that happen to me, and if you've saved, there is no way to get it back on that save...sorry . What were you doing before that happened?

[Gelina]

This happened a while ago, so not saving isn't an option.  I have no idea how it happened.

Why would you save a game with a giant blue hole in a lot?

To fix China, you can go into the save folder in:

C:\Documents and Settings\YOURNAME\My Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Saves

Go into your save where it's happened, delete the China files and try again. This will reset China though, all the dungeons will need to be explored again, and you get the opportunities again.

I didn't notice the giant blue hole until I needed to buy some more shower in a cans.  It could have been there from day 1 for all I know.
