FreeTime Patch Released
Alex:
Unfortunately my attempts to get my elderly sims to flirt with their children have thus far failed, granted it was between Luis and Victor Aspir (I couldn't be bothered to load another neighborhood) but it still should have done something.
I'll try Dora Ottomas next though, seeing as that family's screwed up enough without incest coming into the equation.
gynarchy:
Oh yay! It's almost time for a new FT Patch Borked/Patch Didn't Fix thread! The original FT Bork thread is getting long and unwieldy anyway. So, who wants to start placing bets on what the patch breaks?
Zazazu:
Fun.

- Crash will no longer occur when users attempt to load another lot while associating a neighborhood using the Advanced Neighborhood Options panel.
Crash will now occur when loading another neighborhood using the in-lot toolbar.
Quote
- "Neon Flamingo" is no longer missing from Buy Mode.
Textures removed, flamingo is now flashing blue.
Quote
- Sims can now watch UFOs with the "Astrowonder Telescope".
"Summon Aliens" option has now disappeared.
Quote
- "Socialus Butterfly" can now be caught for the Bug Collection.
Catching that last butterfly and then viewing the collection causes the game to freeze. Upon re-entering, the neighborhood will crash and then wipe itself from your harddrive, to be replaced by the hidden "Butterfly" neighborhood.
Quote
- Primp interaction is no longer missing from the game.
Lies. All lies.
Quote
- The reduced bladder effect from the "ShowMeOff Rack of Glory" will now trigger correctly when Sims are in range.
Please. This is an obvious ploy by EAxis to trick players who heard of the bork into creating the collection so that all sims will be hit by an even more extreme bladder decay.
Quote
- Garden Club members are now treated as townies.
Once interacted with, a Garden Club member fails to be recognized in that role and the inspection is cancelled, giving your sim a bad memory of failing. The Garden Club member is then stuck on the lot indefinitely, as it no longer is categorized as an NPC and does not receive the "Leave" queue action.
Quote
- Violin Tip Jar will no longer cause an unusable tile after being picked up.
As a bonus, it will now be silent, just like the piano is for me half the time.

Last time, the UK site got the patch first, this time the German site. Maybe they are using them as Guinea Pigs, to see if it borks things before releasing it in North America? Because otherwise, why not just release it to everyone at once?
Anyway, patch is right on schedule, if maybe a week early. Kitchen and Bath is due in 2 weeks, and they always patch right before the next thing they want you to buy. (and then bork those things again because the new L&P was made with the unpatched code.)
Maybe because Euro 12s know how to make an error log that makes sense? Other than American 12s that are constantly saying, "I have inSim in my game and I get all kinds of weird errors! Whut? Wait for Insim update? Whut ish dis of witch jou speak?"

Again, this is something I didn't know was an issue, as my Garden Club members show up on community lots and interact with playables and townies just fine... Maybe I just didn't run into issues with them because I either ignore them or because I never marry-in nonplayables into my families.
Alex:
Come to think of it, I've seen nothing but Garden Club NPCs! Actual townies have suddenly become very rare, to Bella Goth/Base game proportions. Garden club NPCs and the Paper Girl are being brought home every day. The pool wallpapers are indeed missing after all.
Quote
- Career outfits are now hidden in Create-A-Family.
All FreeTime outfits hidden in Create-A-Family. Elders no longer wear career outfits.
Quote
- In Audio Options, Custom Station icon no longer blocks the Stop button.
The CS icon is now very large and blocks the entire "Audio Options" panel.
Quote
- "Socialus Butterfly" can now be caught for the Bug Collection.
The butterfly is indeed catchable. Sims instantly get a crush on butterfly upon capture.
Quote
- Parents and their children no longer have the option to flirt with each other.
Sims can now WooHoo their children.
