    Finally:
    "Along those lines (the texting part)… Children should no longer receive inappropriate text messages from adults.
    We have fixed various possible ways in which children might receive inappropriate text messages… if you are still seeing this issue, please let us know."

    The cas.fulledit mode cheat that broke with the last patch NEEDS to be fixed. There are so many threads about it and its honestly annoying me that I can't edit any of my townies anymore. If this wasn't addressed in this patch I am going to be do freaking mad, its a horrid bug.

    The only new things are interface changes and some new lights.

    Lots of bug fixes. They've fixed the baby changing colour issue the day I aged up my baby.

    Thats a really nice patch. I'm glad! And I thought it would be one or two bug fixes... I'm glad I was wrong.

    With cheats turned on, you should now be able to modify NPCs in Create a Sim by shift clicking on them and choosing "Modify in CAS".

    The new lamps are great. And I really like the way they redid the menu to load your games.

    I'm glad they fixed swim laps and vampiric entry!!! I'm wondering however if they have given up GTW. Also fixes for the vanity table and the waterslide would have been nice.

    And along all the bug fixes that were a long time coming, this is one that I am really excited about.
    - Lights that have had their color and intensity modified, and then set to auto-light, will no longer revert to their default color and intensity setting.
    Yes!

    No DO fixes this round.

    I'm sad.

    But a lot of other bugs I've been annoyed about have been fixed, so I'm happy about that.

    -Sims with the masculine preference for clothing will no longer randomize into feminine full body swimsuits while in Create a Sim.

    -We fixed an issue that could cause a toddler to inherit the emotional whim of nearby adult Sims after loading into a lot, which could result with

    What is the time distortion that everyone is talking about? 0_o

    When playing the game, sims will freeze or perform actions frozen while the world moves etc, then time goes back several hours.


    This happens with me when I send my kids or teens to school, when it's 8 am, my clock goes nuts, I can't hit any button, then the time jumps to 10 am, but when I can finally press the pause button or the speed button, it's again 8 am. This drive me insane, I'm about to put a no school mod in my game just because of this.

    I am loving the behind the scenes glimpses. Seeing what issues are taken care of by what department and even what was causing it was very interesting for me.
