    Can't wait to get in my game and check out the updated reward traits! I am especially THRILLED about the update to Never Weary changed back to the way it was originally intended. Ever since this reward trait was borked, I've been using the fill motive cheat on Sims that earned it to keep it filled. In my eyes, it really wasn't cheating since the definition of 'never' is; not ever, at no time, not at any time, not once; not at all!

    So happy the other needs reward traits were updated as well and that another version for energy was created for 'sometimes' weary. I don't mind the inflated price for these either, it just makes sense.

    Happy they fixed the cobwebs, cracks etc. in the Vampires GP to be free again too. 5 simoleans wasn't really that much to pay, but I can see how it would add up after awhile on larger builds. Plus, besides the Vampires themselves, of course, as a builder those features were one of the things that inspired me to buy the pack in the first place.

    Also thrilled about the portable toddler bed and that they can use tents now. In addition to using it on vacations, it will come in very handy for Rags to Riches, Homeless and Runaway challenges as well. Thank you Devs! <3

    Lastly, even though I don't have City Living installed right now, I'm glad the flea market/yard sale table was fixed for those who do have it. I can't wait to use it myself one day. Happy Simming y'all! :)

    I'm happy about the trait that will make sims never need to socialize. That is the most annoying need ever.

    not nearly as important as the rest, but just finished up an incognito party with 3 hosts and 15 guests. saw two new costumes, 'prisoner' (from get to work) and 'bear' (from outdoor retreat). both were doubled up (and had 5 cheerleaders), so hopefully more and i was just unlucky with the costume rolls

    ...also, the only reason the household got a gold rating was the fact that both parents had already completed the party animal aspiration (still working on it for the three teens, who were the hosts). got both '3 sims drink at one time' and '3 sims play games at one time' and even with 5 sims drinking various mixology drinks and 10 sims playing games (4 don't wake the llama, 4 cards, 2 chess), neither of those got marked as anyone participating in them

    Never needing to socialize will help me also actually make a loner sim that works... I know they don't get bothered or tense by it but that red plumbob bugs me.

    @Zeldaboy180 I like the idea of using these traits on ghost... I'm making playing a sim that I plan to send to Selvadorada so I can see what the skeleton ghosts look like eventually. He's got a bunch of traits already but I'll have to complete a number of aspirations to get him the newer and revamped traits... but yeah that gave me the perfect reason to work toward that.

    Well don't save up too much, skeletons automatically don't have any needs besides Social and fun! Unless you just wanna play the ghost itself lol.

    paradiseplanet I noticed an issue with these pants from the Parenthood pack. I loaded a sim of mine into CAS and it said that items were missing. Which was weird, because I did not use cc on that sim. I went through the outfits and the only item missing was the pants in her sleepwear. I could not find them again until removing all the tags (female and sleep). I found them, but the "swatch picker" is also broken, they are all greyed out.

    That explains why I got that message in some of the households I've been playing. I hope they fix it soon, because I don't want to save my game and permanently remove the pants from my sims, then spend time putting them back on when they're put back in.

    Yes these are the ones I had issues with . Thought I had fixed it but same problem showed up when I created a male Sim in CAS. Repair doesn't seem to have made any difference! Can't find these pants for either male or female now >:)

    I'm glad about vampire dark forms not resetting anymore, because it was really starting to make me angry. Also, does anyone know if MCCC still works with this patch?

    Hello @GasolineCrea
    The mod creator has confirmed that MCCC mod works with this patch :)

    I don't think I'll be touching my game for awhile until I get my missing CAS items back. I didn't invest in this game to have them magically taken away from me.

    Drat. The party bug is back. That is, when multiple sims try to do something at a party "At the same time", (Have 3 sims listen to the stereo/dance/play game at the same time, etc.) the party goal does not fulfill. Confirmed that it's broken again in my game. This bug was around for a while and finally got fixed a patch or two ago, but it's back. Why oh why can't they just squash these bugs for good?

    Same. I don't know how it's even possible to accidentally remove content in a patch

    I presume in the patch notes when they mentioned moving around a few clothes in CAS, someone accidently hit the wrong button or two. Or three.

    So the pajama bottoms from parenthood are broken? What if my sim is wearing those? Is the save file now ruined and corrupted? I haven't updated the game yet.

    It's not corrupted. You'll just get a notice that some CAS items couldn't be loaded, and they'll be removed from your sim. If you save your game in that state, you'll have to put the pants back on in CAS when they fix this issue.

    Oh yeah. They really need to double check when doing these things. I hope they make a hot fix for this soon, because I'd rather not wait for a month to get those pants back.

    I'm also missing this bowler hat:

    No, I didn't put that hat on him as a replacement; the game did it automatically in CAS.

    No way they are ever doing bunk beds in a patch, lol. That's not fixing a bug or adding some minor feature. The animation work needed to do functional bunk beds would probably need to be something in a GP or EP. They aren't going to do something like the modders have done where sims teleport into the bed....they'd have to actually have working animations for that.

    I'm kind of annoyed that they changed the never weary trait. Now I'll have to remove it from my sim and give him the new trait because I want him to sometimes sleep.

    Yeah I want my sim to sleep less so they have more time to do things not completely not needing sleep and turning to non humans!

    Btw you mentioned you'll give your sim a new trait like never weary? Is there two types of these traits?

    There's a never weary and a seldom sleepy trait now.. I guess seldom sleepy works like the old one did. I'm not playing a sim who has that so not sure if you kept the never weary or the other if you had it.

    Just thought I'd add in now we have also these changes to traits.. you have one that makes it so you don't need to green much and then the ones that make it so you don't need to green in those areas ever. Well I guess if a potion or something else knocks down your green that's different.
