Problem

Sometimes your Sims get stuck in The Sims 4, but you can reset them with the “resetSim” command in the cheat window. You may want or need to reset your Sims if they become stuck or unresponsive. There are two ways you can reset your Sim. Not to be confused with Hotel. Rental is a lot assignment in The Sims 4: Outdoor Retreat, The Sims 4: Jungle Adventure and The Sims 4: Snowy Escape, specifically appearing in the vacation oriented sub-worlds of Granite Falls and Selvadorada, as well as the residential world of Mt. Komorebi, respectively. As of Patch 103, rental lots are also in the base game, and can be built in any. Mod The Sims member LittleMsSam has come up with a mod for The Sims 4 that we’ve been waiting for since the release of The Sims 4 Get to Work Expansion Pack! This Mod lets you purchase any type of venue and earn revenue from various factors and objects you’ve placed on it. For example,.

  1. The Sims 3 Edit Town Guide Part 2: Editing Your Town and Lot Types by Norma Blackburn Previous: Sims 3 Edit Mode Tutorial. Editing your town can be as simple as adding a few empty blocks to build more houses and adding community buildings that were added in an expansion pack, but have not automatically been placed in your town, or it can be as drastic as demolishing everything in town.
  2. The lot was empty and stuck as 'Retail' I believe, and wouldn't let me change because the venue was 'Special'. It eventually sorted itself out (not really sure what exactly fixed it) because I can now edit the type without any problems. I can move sims onto that lot but the lot is still set to 'Generic' even with sims.
  1. My lot has the type generic and I can’t change it. I get the error: Disabled for Special Venues,
  2. I can’t buy anything. Although I have enough money, buy mode tells me I have insufficient funds. I also get displayed the business funds.

Cause

  • There’s a few lots in Windenburg that are special venues and hence can’t be changed. Those are: The ruins, the Von Haunt Estate and the bluffs. This is by design.
  • There’s a bug that turns other lots into special venues. I don’t know what triggers it though. The cause of this has been fixed but there’s still lots on the gallery that can trigger this. Please use the workaround below to fix it.

Solution

You will either need Get to Work or Dine Out for this fix to work.

  1. Start your game and load any family
  2. If a family lives on the affected lot, move the family out (sell furniture)
  3. Travel with at least one Sim to that lot
  4. Write down how much money your family has.
  5. Buy the lot as either retail or as a restaurant.
  6. If you don’t have enough money, use the following cheat from map view: freerealestate on.
  7. Confirm your purchase (buy it furnished if you already have a house on it you want to keep)
  8. This will change the lot type to either restaurant or retail. You still won’t be able to change it.
  9. Sell your business through the map
  10. You are now free to change the lot type again.
  11. Because of buying/selling, your money balance will not be the same anymore. To put it back to the old amount, use the cheat money <amount> (put testingcheats true first).
  12. If you want a family to live there, you can now move them back in.

    • Custom Music: If you have any custom music, put them back.
