Uhg, I am not having a great day now. Something has gone wrong in my file, all the lots are showing up black, then loading when you go near them and it's only in that game. It's also kind of laggy when other games, including ones that I have had for longer are not, all of the Custom Patterns are not displaying, Furniture, Wallpapers and Clothing included and now I'm vaguely depressed.
So I guess I have two options to consider.
a, Start again with a clean fresh file. In either HS or AP.
b, Carry on and try to fix whatever it is.
At the moment I'm considering starting again, I just don't feel it's worth the effort. I have an idea of how to restart and still use this thread if that is allowed... any thoughts on what I should do?
