Right Ho @luthienrising you are well on the ball today. Only just finished checking and updating my mods and you have already reported on them. Hell of a job. Thanks for keeping us straight.

The July 18th patch introduced some changes that broke a few features, stay tuned for updates by the weekend. All mods should otherwise be safe to use.
Simzlink: Unable to contact Customer Service
PlumbBros: Unable to contact Customer Service
Free-Range: Unable to call over animals.
I'm sorry if this is a really silly question or isn't allowed to be posted here! I can delete it if it's an issue - Anyway I don't have automatic updates turned on in Origin so my game hasn't updated. I'm really not bothered about the features in the patch and would much rather have all my mods working than the ceiling swatches. Can I just not update my game and all mods currently installed should stay working? If I do that, does it mean I can't install mods that are made for this patch update? A.deep.indigo/Adeepindigo tweeted that their mods have been broken by a fixed typo in the code and I have so many of them installed! They confirmed which were broken and won't be updated until the ranch pack comes out. https://www.patreon.com/posts/86292382 confirmed
@SulSulMorgs yes you can play offline and not update the game until you’re ready to (when wanted mods are updated). You’ll need to put your game in offline mode in origin (option in top left corner I believe), and no you can’t install newly updated mods until your game is updated. Once all the mods you want are updated you can safely remove your old ones, update your game, and install the updated mods from the links on this thread.

Hey, I'm sorry if this is annoying, but... a couple of TwistedMexi's mods were listed as broken and either then fixed or made obsolete. Are his other mods broken or OK? Or have we just not heard any info either way on them yet?
Specifically: All Scenarios, Always FullEditMod, Always Testing, Better BuildBuy, Better Exceptions, and TOOL.

Colorful Build Buy UI by hepandeerus seems to be broken. I tested it by itself and it makes the build/buy UI glitch. Once I removed it, everything worked as it should.
I'm not sure how many people use that mod, and I didn't see anyone posting about it, so I thought I'd mention it.

Yes. I took everything out of the mods folder except for the resource file, deleted localthumbcache and it made the UI glitch. I removed the mod, deleted localthumbcache again, and rebooted without any mods, and it was fine. I then put my other mods back in, except that one, and it was still fine.
I ran across the issue when all of my mods were in, assumed it was that one because I saw on this thread that Dark UI was broken. I got pretty lucky with it being the first one I tried.
