    I've taken TONS of screenshots since the update, mine are not upside down.

    Are you having trouble with build mode music and gallery music in live mode?

    NO.

    Your not the only one either.

    Can screenshots can be fixed??????????????????? :):)

    Screenshot issue is just with Macs. The Techs said they are already looking into it.

    I can fill out my Tarantino save because of this patch. I immediately thought of this actress.

    Not exact but closer than the other one we have in game. I'm stoked.

    Thanks, was Looking for it as well. Tried Ventilator and Deckenventilator with no result. Finally I found it with your help. :-)

    Yeah, seriously where is the ceiling fan? I’ve went through build mode items twice and I can’t find it, I’ve even tried to search it. I can’t find it anywhere....

    The patch is great, I like the content & the bug fixes. I'm relieved I don't have to worry about Daniel Pleasant freezing to death when I'm playing a different family, since he seems to love to jog regardless of the weather report. I'm glad too that they have the leaf pile issue on their to do list so that it will hopefully be fixed in a future update.

    One thing about the Caribbean content though. It's making me want MORE! :D I hope they have plans to make more Caribbean-themed content. I'd like a bed, more wallpapers, more decor, etc. I definitely wouldn't say no to a pack with a tropical beach world and themed content.

    Just popping in to say I really like this update. I really love the leaf wallpaper, i'm going to be using it a lot. The ceiling fan is nice too. I also like the facial hair and i'm going to make use of some of the new clothing too.

    Never even thought about using the new hair for a male sim.

    But @Cinderellimouse did.

    That baggy skirt/short thing looks really low quality though, textures look blurry compared to the crispness of the other clothes.

    I've updated my game but still didn't play it so are the ceiling fans only decoration? I thought the sims would be able to feel the breeze when you have Seasons installed...

    Ceiling fans animate and also there is an option to for sims to watch the ceiling fans and watch ceiling fans together.

    Those are cool options and I really liked the patch; I still hope they could "cool off" our sims though ;)

    Quite a missed opportunity indeed.

    I was just playing yesterday wondering when they will put in sliding doors. How funny.

    This patch was nothing to really be excited about. I still have the same bugs in my game that make it unenjoyable. Thus I still deem my game unplayable. I will just be waiting longer until they actually "fix" the game.

    I think the portion of the patch that fixed the issues with toddler wrangling solved the high chair issue, at least for me -- I've been able to put a toddler in a high chair, feed her, then take her out with no one else interfering. Since I play a lot of families with toddlers, that was a pretty big fix for me.

    Main fix I'm currently waiting on is the travel on holiday bug fix, but I've been able to work around it a bit. Considering Parenthood has been out for over a year, you can see that some bugs might take a while to track down and fix.
