THANKS THIS IS GREAT

How the hell did this happen? The "browse by room" is fine, and build mode still works. I have all EPs except Pets and Bon Voyage, and no stuff packs.



Is this a sign of an impending meltdown?

Appears to be graphical. I've had it happen to me a few times before. I just messed around with the eyedropper tool, or just messed around with different sorters. It went away for me. Does yours persist?

This happened to me too, like Kutto I messed around a bit (and possibly went to another lot) and it went away. Have you tried going to another lot and seeing if it comes back?

I've been messing around with it- haven't tried another lot yet. Will do.

Edit- fixed. For now. Glad to know it's just a random glitch, and not a sign of impending doom.

That glitch and the glitch where the wall/foundation tool is still visible after leaving build mode hits me periodically. Nothing's blown yet.

I've had the same glitch.  Fiddling has never brought things back, though.  Perhaps I don't fiddle the right way.  Everything has always returned to normal when I load another lot, or the same one.  Nothing has blown up permanently yet.

That happened to me a few days back. I discovered exactly how much I depend on that section, what had been worse was that it had also occurred to my catalog's at the same time. It did not come back for me at all during my hour play session but by the next run, it was fine.

One day in college I was feeling very stupid. So I drove with Ben down to Maitland and toured EA Tiburon for an hour as an 'honorary intern'. I left feeling MUCH smarter. I recommend the experience to everyone.  -this is a quote from an Ex-boyfriend of mine..

Yup, have that happen a few times too.  Easiest way to bring it back is to use the eyedropper "i"? and select something.

It happens to me when I eyedrop BUY controller to place in other bathrooms. Once I've finished the catalog seems broken, but you just need to eyedrop a non-CC catalog item to bring all the stuffage back.

Just posting to say the same as most other posters. I've had the same thing happen glad to know the fastest fix is the eyedropper!

Pescado explained this to me a while back, it has something to do with eyedropping things that are in multiple categories (the BUY is in both bathroom/misc and misc/misc), so the view has no category to go back to. Or something.
