Default A problem when cloning object
I'm asking this on behalf of my friend. She tried to clone an lounger but weird thing happened. There is no item listed in the Scenegraph Rename Wizard after she finished cloning, which lead to fewer items in the Resources list. The GMDC is not there so she cannot go on. I can't tell what caused that. She is using SimPE 0.56. The Advanced modes is turned on.

The base object she cloned is good. I've tried to clone that object before with no problem.
Here is a set of screenshots showing her cloning process. Hope someone can help her. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for helping, but I don't think that's the cause of the problem. That lounger is stand-alone. It has its own texture and meshes. I've tried to clone that object before with no problem. Here are some screenshots of cloning that lounger on my machine:

Is this the only thing she's ever cloned? There are settings for the Scenegraph under preferences. What are her settings?

She just installed SimPE, so everything should be default. Only thing she changed in preferences is set the advanced mode on.

I will ask her to clone another object and see what happened. Thanks!

Do you have CEP installed?

The CEP should not affect the GMDC being pulled. It only adds extra MMATs and some lines into Geometric Node with objects that need that to allow recolorability.

Maybe it has something to do with the windows localization language.
