Is now out. Or, has been for several hours now anyway. http://www.thesims3.com/community/news.html?selMonth=2&selYear=2010#1933964469 * Base Game: Fixes an issue where Sims continuously perform the "Be Invited Inside" interaction on other Sims' lots. * Base Game: Fixes an issue that causes Sims to get stuck in the "Grab a Slice" interaction on pizza. * World Adventures: Fixes an issue that causes the game to freeze when attempting to save a household on a base camp. * High End Loft Stuff: Fixes an issue where the family inventory loses functionality after using the Create a Style tool on an object. * High End Loft Stuff: Fixes an issue that prevents the fulfillment of the "Buy a Video Game System" wish when buying the "GUGA JoyToy 3" and "Console 7" video game systems. * High End Loft Stuff: Fixes and issue that prevents the "Presenting the Perfect Private Aquarium" Life Time Wish from counting fish in fish aquariums. * Shop Mode Update: Fixes problems caused by the font and updates the In Game Store to the latest EA Webkit version. Someone go bork hunting. Apparently there's also a CAW update to coincide with this. |

I wonder what EAxis has broken in its attempt to fix those bugs/glitches.

By the time they are done with this series of expansion/stuff packs, we'll need a DVD just to store all the bloody patches on.

Basegame: 1.11.7.00500x
SP1: 3.2.8.00500x
WA didn't patch for me; does anyone have the skuversion for that?
CAW is 1.6.72.005037 from 1.5.126.002037 if anyone's interested.

Simsample, Try version 2.6.11.00500x for World Adventures! It downloaded for me, but I haven't attempted to install it yet!  |

Thanks PajamaRick, what region are you and what version did you update from? I need the 2.6.11.005002 from 2.5.12.005002 but am getting file not found on that.

Since I have this masochistic habit of patching my game almost immediately after patches come out, I did so again -- of course, after copying my Mods and Saves folders, and putting my TS3.exe file back the way it was.
For what it's worth, both WA and the base game updated just fine. (I do not have HELS.) Cringing, I started the game -- and incredibly, everything seems to work. I haven't noticed any broken CC (not that I use very much), not even the nointro hack (a particular favorite of mine), the same no-CD crack works, my Sim and the others in his household seemed the same as always, and his trip to China and back came off without a hitch.
While I'm sure I'm glad that my toons can now eat pizza correctly, I could only wish the endless stream of patches would actually fix some of the things we've all known about for a long time -- disappearing items (Pangu's Axe, Eyes of Horus, pizzas, etc.), broken fridges, random crashes that can only (usually) be stopped by regularly decrapifying, work/school-push issues, and the whole rest of the list that you all know so well.

Thanks PajamaRick, I have it now- it just downloaded. Maybe there was a hold on one particular region, someone on another forum couldn't get WA to patch at first either. I could download all other patches but that one direct from server, and the launcher didn't pull it down, either.

I don't suppose for one moment that this new patch fixes the lights? Probably not.

uknortherner , the lights aren`t broken. They`re working just fine. That`s what EA believes, anyways...  |

I'm assuming from the lack of posts on this thread about various problems is a sign that this patch is harmless. I've expected this to be at least 3 pages by now.
Editing to ask a question: has anyone tried ALT-TAB'ing out of the game to see if it still crashes?
It appears at this early stage that ALT-TAB'ing doesn't crash the game anymore.

I installed this new patch on my game and my youngest daughter's game. No problems. It's EA's bigger patches you have to worry about. I guess they are releasing smaller patches instead of a big one that will create more bugs.

If by current you mean the one in test? No, it does not conflict. |

Well, my game is now broken since updating to the latest patch via the launcher. I kept getting an error saying the base game is incompatible with the latest expansion pack, and that I should update through the launcher which of course if that worked I wouldn't be typing this. So I manually downloaded the correct patch to update the base game and kept getting an error message saying file not found and the patcher ends without finishing. I've been through everything I know to make sure all CC has been removed and that would include altered files and still can't find a solution even though i've searched for answers in several forums. Any help on this, anyone?

I can confirm that. Good thing, too - this had been bothering me quite a lot. |

Noenmity- it sounds as though you have a basegame system file which has been changed or deleted. For example, have you removed the Family Sims/ lots from the family bin or modified any files? If so, restore them and patch again. If you can't find the problem file, you could search %temp% for the latest rtpatch.log file and check in there to see where it failed. Otherwise, reinstall the basegame.

I find it incredibly hard to believe that you can't find it considering the current state of things in Awesomemod's section of this forum. |
