Map tag issue
« on: February 01, 2013, 05:45:53 PM »
I have had a strange problem since the installation of Seasons. It seems to affect only my baby boomer challenge file as I have a completion challenge and completed the handyman challenge without any issues with the map tags. I have not made any new files other than handyman so I don't know if it is a constant problem now or not. I am going to go ahead and make a new game file and see if it has the same issues. Note: my completion challenge was started before I installed Seasons and the handyman challenge wasn't a very long game, don't know if that could affect it.

Issue: Load up game, go to town view and there are no map tags
Fixes I know about: Go to edit town click on lot, do not move lot elsewhere just click again and then accept and return to game while saving.

Problem: Can't go to edit town while in the challenge game files. So I need a fix that will work while operating within the challenge rules.

What I have tried and does not work: deleting cache, restarting, edit town and then return to game (not touching anything in edit town just going there and back), and going back to main menu.

I have a picture of the issue but need to look up the rules on how to upload pics to the forum before I do so.

Have you tried the toggle maptags option available under the console panel? and does changing the map tag filters do anything?

Yes, the little dots option that is available? I have tried any and all settings under that and it didn't change at all. I really need to get some pictures taken and put up. I will work on that here in  a bit. The collection helper is also down. So not just the map tags but the collection helper that toggles its own map tags.
