This user has the following games installed:

Sims 3, World Adventures, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Showtime, Supernatural, Seasons, University Life, Island Paradise, Into the Future
Default Laundry items missing
It's been awhile since I played Sims 3 but I was in the mood so I opened the launcher. There was a new update 6.1 to 6.2.4 blah blah. did the usual backing up, saving, delete cache etc and updated the game successfully. YAY!...

NOT! when my game loaded I got an 'missing objects replaced' message. Couldn't figure out what was missing everything seemed to be there until I decided to do laundry. Instead of the washer and dryer I had a fridge and a stove with a wonky door! WTF!

I went into buy mode to laundry and all that is in the laundry section is a black ball that thinks its a clothes line! No washing machine or dryer anywhere. Has anyone else encountered this?

I checked 2 other games and same thing fridge and stove in place of laundry! Did a Mod site and wiki search as well as a google search and found nada. would appreciate and pointers or advice. Thanks

Try each of the steps in the guide above to either solve the issue or rule out custom content as the cause.

I probably should of specified that I first ran the game clean with NO custom content or hacks. Got that message and the missing laundry items from the start. I had already followed step by step all the instructions on:

Game Help:TS3 Patching
Game Help:TS3 Patching:Before You Begin
Game Help:TS3 Patching:Patch Download via Launcher
Game Help:TS3 Patching:Once Installed
Game Help:Sims 3 Delete Cache Files

Then I added a few safe mods at a time and tried again and again and again. I was thinking that once all the content had been re-added the missing bits might show up. I did not add any hacks or iffy mods only my safe mods (patterns, make up, a few hairs) Always the laundry stayed screwed up. So I followed each and every step in Game Help:Sims 3 Game Problem before I posted on this forum.


I wanted to know if anyone else had encountered this and if it was patch related. Or do I have to uninstall and re install.

So what about the rest of that FAQ? New user files, and so on?
What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.
