Anyone tried to add the "remote control car" in their Sim house since the patch?

So apparently the patch works? Good..I liked the car. I always wanted to see if a toddler would chase it.

Rubber buggy baby bumpers is a lot older than the Simpsons! Probably as old as Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
Oh ok then, well I am French Canadian so this explains why it is not part of my culture... Thanks for the tip ;)
What's really funny is I haven't heard that since I was a kid. (I don't watch the Simpsons.) And I'm a LOT older than the Simpsons! :D
I only ever bought one rc car, I think, and my sims hardly ever looked at it. So I figured if they weren't going to play with it, why buy it? And I never had any problems with that lot. But when I read about the problems people were having, I definitely avoided it. Especially since I was having problems with cell phones. When I found out about the car problems, I went back into Pleasantview, which I haven't played in months, to find the car and delete it, but I couldn't remember which house had it! I may have already deleted it because they pretty much ignored it anyway.
I wonder - if I went back and found that house, would that same car be ok, or would I need to get rid of it and buy another?
BlueSoup:
When I first started playing, before I knew anything about the game, I put the RC car in a house, and the Sims wouldn't leave it alone. Finally, I had enough of that, so I removed the car and never let them have another. I was relieved of that when I read about the mass destruction it causes.
I never let them have myshuno either. Or TV.
Hook:
I haven't had the remote control car in a house since playing the tutorial. :)
At least the TV is ok with the cheat to turn down the volume:
floatProp tvVolume 0.1
Default is 0.5 which annoys other people in the house. My house, that is. The Sims don't complain about the volume.

Any of you who have been trying it should check the last modified date of your objects.package file. If it's not August but October then the damn thing is corrupting it even if the effects aren't showing yet.
I haven't tried it since the Patch, but I tried it when NL came out and it was supposedly "fixed" and it wasn't. :P I didn't see it on the list of stuff for the NL patch either. I know the NL patch also included stuff from the Uni patch, but a lot of that stuff on that list was stuff already fixed in the base NL add-on and they just listed it because the Uni people are only just now getting those fixes with their patch.
From what I remember reading on this site from MaxoidTom that was not fix in NL, but it is with the patch:
"Fixed a major issue where loading a lot with the remote control car in use would make all memory and job icons blank"
This is exactly what I tested yesterday night and it worked fine, no Sims have lost their memory and new ones appeared and stayed, they did get promotions, chance card and received their pay. My objects.package file is a read-only I don't know if it made the difference but from what I tested it seems to be fixed now.
My Sims seems to love that item, every chance they had they wanted to play with it.
