    Thrilled about the new carpet colors! It was so limited before. Now if they'd only add more carpet patterns...

    Haha, I agree. There's only so much Trumpet Vine a person can take.

    @LunaNova Me too, I'm happy they've left these little treats to be discovered.

    Was this little animation always in the game?

    Not sure if this was in before the patch but in the relationship panel, if you hover over a sim's portrait it shows what age they are.

    I think you're right, that looks new to me. If it isn't, then at least the little person graphic is updated next to their age. Thanks!

    Here's a new interaction I found when my sim was about to eat an omelet:

    Hey guys, I've been seeing that a lot of you have found some patches not officially in the notes, so I thought I'd start this thread to record and compile what goodies you've found.

    Features thus far:


    1. New carpet colours
    2. Buy a Retail Store menu
    3. UI sharper resolution (?)
    4. "Skyroof" (with dance floor)
    5. Get water from fridge and sink


    Post here and I'll expand the list. :)

    Thanks for posting this! Buy a retail store menu is new? I remember when GTW first came out, the button was on the UI in the far right corner when the game was first loaded. Is this what you're referring to?
    Can't wait to get into the game, and see all these changes.

    Does she possibly mean a menu list of stores to buy instead of the map. Which btw, was in TS2's OFB to pick from a list.

    Ooh, even better! Never thought of that idea. I'm about to load up the game and check it out!

    Yes, it's a new drop down menu for selecting a business to purchase.

    "Buy a Restaurant" will probably be added for those who get Dine Out. Maybe additional options in future packs?

    Whoa! As @stilljustme2 said about the new dropdown menu for buying restaurants, this new interaction is probably for Dine Out as well.

    I love the Simology tab on the UI. I don't think that was mentioned in the notes. It looks awesome!

    Don't see that here.

    We got skyroof and "Get water" in the sink and fridge.

    Skyroof? Either I don't understand or I just can't figure out how to do it.

    Already up there, but I had it as "traits". Thank you for the correction!

    Some of the dance floor works as a sky roof for flatten roofs.

    You're very welcome. I'll try to take more screenshots as I go along and people keep finding more treats.

    No problem, it's all thanks to the keen eyes of the community. I wouldn't have noticed a lot of these things either!

    This is pretty, thank you! I'll post a smaller version on the list so it doesn't turn too pic-intensive.

    I got a chuckle from that (game is updating as I type). My sims can now be glass half full/half empty sims.
