Thanks, that resolved the bird question! :love5:
The GoBo lights appear to be a Maxis problem, based on other threads I found online. Some folks thought they were tied to lighting mods like commlightson and smart(er)lights or Gunmod's Radiance mod, but I had none of those at the time and there were still issues. Can't go to lots with lights installed without deleting them. It's aggravating.
I say it appears to be a Maxis problem because other users report that even a clean install without custom content doesn't fix the lights and whereas I can't test it as I installed all EPs and SPs at the same time, the issues started with OFB. Other users think that the pool lights conflict with the disco lights, but most lots with the disco lights don't have pools. One fix suggested was to remove all pool lights in-game and then uninstall/reinstall and replace the pool lights, but this drastic measure didn't resolve everyone's issues.
The irritating thing is that they originally worked for me with all EPs and SPs except FF. Hopefully Seasons will correct the problem, but I don't have high hopes.
Users who approached Maxis with support questions were ignored or didn't get useful answers, but Maxis did attempt to help some, which again points to it being a known bug. On the other hand, if it is a Maxis issue, then the lights shouldn't have ever worked in the first place. Right? It's baffling.
Usually users figure out the problem and find a fix, but it seems like only a few people are asking for help with the problem. If anyone CAN help with this, I'd appreciate it. It doesn't appear to be a common issue, though.
I'm going to try adjusting my graphics settings in-game and see if that helps.
I miss my disco lights on my community lots.
