Trinity:
There is a patch out on the official site: http://www.thesims3.com/game/patches

Complete list of changes:

    * Addresses some issues with Speed 2 and 3 moving too slowly. Some machines will have better results when using Speed 2 and 3 now.
    * Fix to story progression on/off selection toggle.
    * Fix for a possible crash with audio code.
    * Fix for babysitter routing off lots with babies.
    * Addresses some issues with Vsync and refresh rate problems.
    * Addresses some issues with DVD authentication errors and drive compatibility on startup.
    * This update deals with some issues on Mac systems that can crash the game while connecting to AFP servers.
    * Fix for a freeze that can occur when Sims attempt to clean out bad food from the fridge.

Has anyone tried using the patch with Awesomemod? I was hoping that they were going to address more issues in this patch. I think I'm going to pass of this right now, as Awesomemod fixes story progression and adds awesome other features as well.

Inge:
The mod will of course override the patch, just like it overrode the original game, but there could be interesting juxtapositions.

After all this time, this is all they fixed.  Pathetic.  But I guess that's EA for ya.  They seriously should compensate Pescado for fixing their fuckups.

Mootilda:
I was discussing this with a friend the other day.  Ideally, EA would take Pescado's changes and incorporate them into the game, with a better UI.  However, is it ethical for them to do so?  Pescado is unlikely to give them his personal ID so that they can pay him for his work...

Does anyone know whether it's possible to get the patch without connecting my game machine to the internet?  My game machine hasn't had internet access since EA and Sony decided to start spying on me and destroying my hardware.  I'd prefer to download the patch and copy it over, but I can't see any way to do that.

Ethics, schmethics. It's not a concept I pay more than token attention to, so what makes you think EAxis does?

Yes. What's your region version?
EN_US (00001)
Worldwide (00002)/Razor1911

Note that if you got the 632 patch, you have to reinstall now.
