    Just something I was curious about. It does make sense

    That was the most surprising thing about this patch so far. :D

    Sims can't lounge on the chair and read a book at the same time. Kind of disappointing

    Yeah I tried as well and no luck. They can drink drinks and lounge though so that’s nice.

    Pets also leave paw prints in the sand, just like they do for snow!

    Ooh, at least it's something. I guess they couldn't get lounging and reading to work with the multitasking system.

    Yay! Looks great! Oh but will the no festival clothes mod be broken? I despise seeing them walk around in those clothes. Sorry if I’m asking an obvious question I’m new to mods so haven’t had to worry before.

    It is going to take me half an hour to get through the bug fixes ... and what is this "Gender Preference now affects flirt options."? This sounds amazing!

    I thought it always did? I did a bit of testing in this realm and found I could effectively make a sim "straight", "gay" or "bi/pan" just by having them flirt enough with the preferred gender, and I'd only see flirt options show up in the contextual menu on that sim when interacting with a sim of their preferred gender. Is there more to this aspect with this patch? Is this more for non-active sims?

    If they updated the sand terrain in other worlds to show footprints, does this mean the game acknowledges these areas for sand activities if you have Island Living installed? They might as well, right?

    Wondering the same. That would be great if those activities were tied to sand. I could make sandboxes 😊

    They probably work for anywhere that has sand terrain paint. Which means we'll be able to make parks with sandboxes.

    Is anyone else having trouble zooming in and out of the game? I’m playing on a MacBook, I’ve trued repairing the game and disabling the mods but I still can’t zoom in or out

    I hope so *fingers crossed*

    Also, I just realized: what if I tried combining the fast internet and off-the-grid lot traits?

    And...it didn't work. I'm not sure, but this might be the first instance of conflicting lot traits

    Edit: I also tried an oil lamp with the off-the-grid trait, and it didn't work. Until I read the description and saw that it's an electricity-powered replica :D

    All I did was remember this trick from the bodysuit that came with the Backyard Stuff pack, but I am glad I was able to help. :)

    I just noticed this too while I was in CAS.
    Do you guys mean by the pressing C option? Try taking one by how your system does it, mine is holding the Alt key and Prnt scr

    I know how to take a screenshot. :) But there is an option in game to take pictures and videos with and without the UI and it seems to be broken, at least for pictures.

    @icmnfrsh unfortunately, I saw somewhere that the sandcastles only can be built on the beach with IL. Maybe suggest to the Gurus they patch it in at a later date? I'm happy to be wrong about this, but I don't think we'll get functional sand boxes. Sorry.
    Allons-y!

    Sad. I don't think it would've been hard for them to include sand activities in the other beaches if ocean swimming was too hard. :\ TS4 has a lot of nice things but it has its limitations :(

    Yes, I agree. I don't think it would be too hard for them to patch it in at a later point though, so if we make enough noise...
