Ambitions: What's Fixed
Claeric:
I wanna know what people have noticed is fixed/better. I am risking a negative reaction putting this here (or making it at all), but whatever.
Stuff I've seen:
-The game in general runs a lot better for me. I can now drive around town at 3x speed without any jumping or lagging. The game no longer seems to try and load lots as you pass them.
-Outdoor lighting is significantly better. Lights spreading off lot is hit or miss, but lights on your sims and the world around them are much nicer.
-Doors, when placed on a wall bisecting another wall, would create a hole. There'd just be a big hole in that corner. Now, doors stay up when you are facing these corners, so that hole is hidden. It is honestly a big deal for me.
-Custom Content Icons. now I can tell if a hair or object is base game or if I downloaded it from somewhere. Very nice.
-Story Progression seems more agressive. This is a good thing.
-Wishes come a hell of a lot more often.
Add more, damnit.
uknortherner:
Still running the base game here (Ambitions still in the post somewhere), but since the new patch, sim pathfinding is vastly improved with less foot tapping and sims whinging about blocked routes, etc.
Lighting is hit and miss as you say. Roads do not light up, but adjacent land does when outdoor lights are placed. Wall lights will NOT cast light beyond lot limits, however and no lights will cast light on walls more than one floor high. Light cast from windows now works correctly, especially at night.
Shadows are less pixellated.
Game appears to run smoother, though takes three times as long to load. Presumably it's doing a better job pre-caching everything.
Goggalor:
It seem like objects that are enabled for neighborhood view now actually show without having to load the lot in high detail first.
Simius:
You can select the lot type you want in edit town mode. Lot types are no longer forced on you by what you decided to put in them.

That's been around since before World Adventures.
I've noticed a lot less CTDs. They still occur, but they no longer seem to occur on the hour, as they once used to.
