New Pets Patch
IAmTheRad:
Oddly, very oddly, when I put in the pets patch even having seasons installed it fixed a seasons problem.
Werewolf, Vampire, and normal Sim skin types are now updating correctly at proper times. was fixed...
Plant sim face textures did not change when the plant in question turned into a vampire. Of course, a vampire plant is silly, but it was still an annoying bug...

I decided just to install over it. Despite Pescado's saying it would do no good, it did definitely FINALLY fix the maid/fishtank thing. (WOOHOO!) Some sheep was saying that it didn't fix everything, though, ones who have Seasons and didn't know that installing it over Seasons wouldn't do any good. My theory is that bugs that are strictly object based, like the fishtank, will be fixed because the patch alters the relevant objects.package file, while it won't fix things that require altering the exe.
Objects.package will not be fixed because Seasons ignores the Pets objects.package completely. Anything requiring executables or objects.package will not be affected by this, which means pretty much everything. If you think it fixed anything, it's probably purely due to placebo effect.

Now, if you're saying the placebo effect when I made a plantsim vampire before I installed the patch, then when I installed the patch the vampire skintone appeared correctly on the plant was a placebo effect? I may not be the expert on the game, but extensive testing with a custom plant skintone (and the regular plant skintone too...) with vampire skintones (maxis and a default replacement) on a plantsim showed the same results, and then putting in the patch and doing the same tests, but not as extensive, came up with the results of the patch working was a placebo effect?
Odd...
KatEnigma:
Well MaxoidSam did say I imagined that cheat into the game, so I must have used those same powers to imagine the maid cleaning the fishtank once and then moving on to clean everything else instead of obsessing over it. With those sorts of powers, though, you'd think I'd do something more useful or interesting with them. ;) After all, TJ already had the fishtank thing under control. Silly me. :D
Sagana:
Hi Liss, good to find you in my company ;) So I'm gonna install overtop on the theory that it can't hurt and even a placebo effect provides temporary relief. Gimme them sugar pills.
