Help! Old design lockdowns too far away

**kitiara** · 26th December 2006, 04:09 PM

Well, I think I've really messed up this time.

I decided to redesign my house. I took down my aquarium and all of my deeded addons, cleared my old design, and redesigned a new house. (I based the design on one I'd seen here, since I'm totally not creative!)

I just finished, and there are lockdowns from my old design that didn't go into the moving crate. However, they're over in areas that are open space now, so I can't get close enough to them to grab them. I can unlock them, but when I try to pick them up, they are "too far away."

What do I do now? I've already committed this new design.

I'm just sick over this, as it took me 4 hours to redesign this house!

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks. (See attached pic)

Have you tried using the interior decorating tool, to lower them to where u can grab them?

If the deco tool cant get the down to you, Id just go back into Customze and make a couple little walkways to get out there and grab the stuff...once your done, just delete the walkways and put the 2-3 pieces of wall back up....

unlock them.
go in custom mode.
come out of custom.
they will fall under house sign.

Thanks for the ideas! I accidentally discovered another thing that worked -

(IF you're in an area you can trust!)

Unlock stuff.

Go into customize mode. (Change nothing). Commit.

All unlocked items from my house fell under my house sign!

So I just ran outside and picked them all up.

Wooohooo!!!!!

I absolutely canNOT take credit for the house design. It is totally copied... let me see if I can find the thread I copied from: here it is - page 1, 5th post down, user jcesare.

I'll post pics when I finish up the inside, but it looks a lot like jcesare's!
