Sand cloud stuck around Sim?!

[ensemble]

I've checked the help section for this (and done a million Google searches) and have come up with nothing, it's driving me mad!

I have a family living on a beach lot. A Sim was doing yoga on the beach, a sand cloud formed around his feet, and it won't leave! I've tried the following:

Given him a bath and shower
Changed his clothes
Made him go for a drive and return
"move_objects true" to remove him from the cloud, but it just reforms around him again
Took him Downtown (it disappears there, but reforms as soon as he gets home)
Put him to bed for the night

...and probably others I'm forgetting. Any suggestions?!

Ah thank you SO much! :D The "force error" method just made the cloud twice as big and I panicked lol, but deleting the Sim altogether worked :)

Thanks so much again!

Occasionally I have Sims who have soap bubbles trailing them after scrubbing something (mostly super-neat Sims) and it looks like they're farting them out. The effect tends to wear off after a while. At least with me it does.

Both the sand and the bubbles can be sorted by the MATY batbox. Not sure which setting as I haven't needed it for a while, but it's fixed both issues for me at different times.

How do you have sims living one a beach lot? Are you talking about a vacation lot? You can make them live there????

Sims can't live in vacation neighborhoods, but you can place beach lots as residences in any neighborhood with a suitable beachfront area. (If you have Freetime, you can even use the modifyNeighborhoodTerrain cheat to alter the coastline (http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=278903) on the existing Maxis neighborhoods to accept beach lots.)

It doesn't bother me, it goes away on its own--the soap bubbles, that is.
