The patch will be out tomorrow...
Andygal:
well I agree that EA games is problably partially to blame, but I don't think that completely absolves Maxis of all blame for their shoddy testing practices. It is at least partially their fault.
Meek_Monkey:
thats fair they are both to blame you know the big boys leaning on the little boys. and Maxis problaby dont have as much say as they once did.
MaxoidTom:
From what I've gathered, the vast majority of the people are not having any problems with the patches. However, the ones that are heard the most are those with problems. Unfortunately others hear these concerns and assume that everyone else is having problems as well.
Whether you believe me or not, it's not for lack of trying. We tested as thoroughly as we could in the amount of time we had, but it is impossible to catch everything. It is also nearly impossible to verify that the patches are causing problems or incompatible third party modifications. I'm not trying to place any blame here, but some of the mods may just not be compatible with the newer code in NL and in the patches.
I'm sorry to hear that some of you are having problems. Please use the official bug form on the BBS to submit the bugs you have found. If you could verify that they do indeed occur without 3rd party modifications, that would be great. If you are having "jump" or "reset" bugs, you can turn on testingCheatsEnabled and get the error dump that results from that in your My Docs\The Sims 2\Logs directory. That will be very helpful to us in tracking down any problems you may have.

To answer your question, I don't know, though I'm not sure I understand what the bug is, exactly. Is it that the sim gets eaten and you expect that everyone has a memory of the death? Or that everyone does have a memory of the death, but they shouldn't?
Unfortunately, I do not know all the bugs that were fixed by the patch(es). The list we posted on the official BBS is rather large and there may be problems users have seen that have a common cause that we have fixed.
