Sims 4 Patch (06 Mar, 2024)

This update addresses a number of fixes to various issues reported by the community after the previous updates.

Bug Fixes

Base Game

• Updated some performance optimizations that had caused certain moodlets to inadvertently be removed from Sims on load.
• Fixed a crash that would occur if a tooltip was triggered when in the hover state on objects within a Sim’s inventory.
• Fixed an issue with object picker UI menus that - when certain conditions were met - would interfere with Sims’ ability to run various “Give” interactions (interactions where objects would be given to other Sims).
• Once learned, the WooHoo Interests of other Sims will once again be displayed accurately in that Sims’ Profile Panel.

For Rent

• You should once again be able to successfully open the Profile Panel of another Sim after Eavesdropping on them and see any secrets that were learned about them.

Crystal Creations

• Corrected an issue where Sims’ bodies would gradually change in size each time a Sim put on or took off crafted jewelry. This issue primarily affected Teens, Adults, and Elders. There was minimal impact to Young Adults.
• While this issue will no longer occur, this update does not retroactively fix the appearance of Sims who had already been altered. There are two methods we can suggest for manually restoring your Sims:
• You can restore an older save file that was saved prior to any crafted jewelry being worn by your Sims.
• On PC/Mac, please visit our video guide or text guide for instructions on restoring older save files.
• On PlayStation/Xbox, select “Load Game” from the main menu, and choose an older save file.
• You can take your Sim into CAS by using the “Change Sim” interaction on a Mirror or Dresser object, and then manipulate your Sim’s body to reasonably approximate their prior appearance.
• For players with The Sims 4 Get to Work, crafted jewelry can now be sold at Retail businesses without being returned to the business owner Sims’ inventory when traveling away from the Retail lot.
• If a Sim dies while wearing crafted jewelry, that jewelry will now be disassociated with the now-dead Sim when the jewelry is returned to the household’s inventory.
• Updated some combinations of crafting jewelry that were resulting in a gemstone color that did not match the crystal that was selected when crafting.
