I had a problem with my home. I bugged it and it is fixed! but now I have a window and no idea how to use it. I see it with study home: It seems to be a freestanding home, with a window, located in a middleclass urban area. but I don't see while inside. Do I need to activate it?

thanks in advance

When inside, try 'tap window'. That usually turns features on and off.

>>'tap window'

That's the one, to hide/unhide it from view. You can open and close it, PEER through it while inside to see out (or outside to see in!) assuming the window is open. If I recall correctly, if you're small enough and the window large enough, you can even crawl through it.

There does seem to be a problem about not being able to peer into houses when no one is home, even if the window is open. My guess is it has to do with the house unloading itself, making the description unavailable. Any way this can be corrected, or will we have to be home (or have just recently left) in order for other folks to peep in? I'm really curious to see what some of my neighbors have :)

The peeping in windows deal is a resource issue that doesn't have an easy fix in sight at this time. Perhaps DR2 will allow this, but I'm honestly not sure about that, either.

Sorry to be no help at all!

As per Skiori.

Getting an answer you don't like doesn't mean your question wasn't answered.

Something like that.
