    For anyone looking, the new Broken/Updated Mods & CC thread is here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Mods-CC-Issues/Broken-Obsolete-and-Updated-Sims-4-Mods-1-106-Apr-16-2024-Game/td-p/13649658

    I'm looking forward to a shorter one. Many people will still need to find the thread for patch 1.105, because of how huge that was for mods. Earlier threads all have links in this pinned Master Post: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Mod-CC-Issues/MASTER-POST-Current-and-Common-Mod-CC-Issues/m-p/13437299

    Update 4/16/2024
    PC: 1.106.148.1030 / Mac: 1.106.148.1230
    Console: 1.91

    Sul Sul Simmers!

    In just a few days, you can get your hands on a fresh fit to wear to the best party on the block. The fun doesn’t stop there; we’ve also got some updates coming your way!

    The Sims Team

    Bug Fixes

    Base Game

    Plants that are alive and well will no longer emit green “stink clouds” as if they were dead. Translations related to this fix will be available in the next release!

    After enforcing regulations with the Landgraab Power Company, power on a Sim's lot will no longer be unexpectedly shut off when bills are paid in full.

    What an identity crisis! Simmers playing in any language besides English will no longer see the First and Last Name panel blank in CAS for Sims that have selected pronouns.

    Um, wasn’t this supposed to be a group activity? When doing Group Cooking, all Sims will now participate.


    Gallery Server

    We have been continually reviewing your Gallery profanity reports, which can be submitted through the The Sims 4 Gallery Profanity Filter
    Feedback survey, and we have been updating the ruleset to allow Simmer freedom while keeping others safe. A couple of highlights include:

    Reducing the strictness of how hashtags were handled when listed in specific orders

    Maxis-created Sims, even from past Sims games, should no longer be prevented from uploading if you choose to recreate one or more

    Eco Lifestyle

    We fixed an issue where The Dew Collector was not collecting any water. Now, it will correctly collect water, and the water level will continue to rise.

    High School Years

    Timestamps are now updated properly on the Social Bunny App. Phew, talk about FOMO!

    Horse Ranch

    While admirable, Sims will no longer express a desire to level up their Nectar Making skill, when that skill is already maxed out.

    Yipee, Horse Riding now helps Sims lose weight!

    For Rent

    In this economy?! The maximum available rent value will no longer lower after evicting a tenant during a grace period in 11C Sungai Point.

    Yikes. Now, this is going to require an audit! Landlords who own a Residential Rental Lot and own a business will no longer have fund transfer issues. Transfers from the business to the household will no longer fail, and money will no longer duplicate household funds when transferring to a business.

    Crystal Creations

    The shawl sweater from Crystal Creations is now visible when selecting a “Fashion Choice” in CAS filters. Please be advised that wearing this shawl did not grant the power of invisibility.

    Realm of Magic

    What a conundrum! When aliens abduct Spellcasters, they will now become pregnant and give birth to an alien baby instead of a Sim baby.

    Werewolves

    Tastes like kibble! After taking the 'Wolf-B-Gone' drink, Sims will no longer have a fury glow still showing.

    Updated a series of CAS accessories that were originally showing up for werewolves, even though those accessories were not applicable to werewolves.

    Grunge Revival

    A texture issue with the chipped nails in Grunge Revival has been updated.

    Poolside Splash

    Textures on one of the tank tops have been updated to remove some texture bleeding.

    Castle Estate

    Hear ye, hear ye. All Castle Estate Windows have been updated to show up in the correct wall height categories.

    The arrow slit window has been updated to show that it can be placed on curved walls.

    The “Heraldic Crest of Yore” and the “The Eavesdropping Llama” have been updated to appear in Outdoor Wall Sculptures. Your castle has never looked better!

    Will the patch notes be posted? I'm just curious because my game is updating now, and I do like reading them.

    Yup, once the patch is confirmed available on all platforms I'll get the notes up, and then Simgirl1010 will beat me to sharing them in this thread.

    Thanks! And you're right, she gets you every time. At least you accept your fate. :D

    I know my place. 2nd place.

    Actually per timestamp you may have beat her by a minute or two :D

    I saw "Gallery" in the patch notes and got excited for a second. My Charlie Brown moment for the day. You win again, Lucy! 😖

    Oh no. I knew some accessories were showing that weren't meant for werewolves but I didn't mind. So many serious bugs and this is the fix we got, even more limitations for werewolf fashion :(. Some looked a bit weird but I was happy to see more choices. Which ones were removed?

    I don’t use Mods. Has this patch broken anything big?

    Could someone who already updated please check if werewolves can still wear the scarfs from horse ranch and the necklace with the lock from high school years? Those looked good on werewolves and I'd like to know if they will still be there after I update. The long horse ranch earrings obviously were never meant for werewolves so those make sense to be removed.

    Better luck next time. I mean, we all know it's never gonna happen but there's nothing wrong with a little encouragement. :)

    I had the same plan... As have been for years with patches. But EA App decided to update my game automatically even though I have "Update games automatically" off in my EA App settings. This is so upsetting, I don't want to update my game before I know the update is safe and I have updated my mods, since I have some I just can't remove without it messing my gameplay quite badly. I haven't even opened the App after the update became public and still, somehow, when I did open it, it said the update was complete and my game version has changed. I so hope that since there are settings for this, the plumhole App would work according to them. Too much to ask, apparently, I'm so fed up with nothing working as it should :(

    I just heard from Sim Yin that since the patch update some people are missing items from some of the packs. Anybody know if that is because people are using CC or mods? Or if it’s happening in a vanilla game too?

    I play vanilla, but played offline last night, decided to wait till I get the new kits to update.

    I've played since the patch and i've not had any warnings about missing or removed items.
