with the patch installed the options/view neighborhood are greyed out....this allows you to go to adjouning houses with returning to the screen.
I installed the patch and my neighborhood options work just fine. i haven't check though if they are not resetting anymore after restarting the game.

what no welcome home hack ? i can't seem to find a hack with this name in the Armory section?
Maybe it is from another modder?

There is one inconvenience with installing the patch that i've observed:
When you install the patch all sims will reset, like they just moved in the lot, so if you have YAs currently taking the final exam, they will now be in the lot and will miss the final exam - "stay home from school". nothing serious though. Just make sure to complete the finals before installing it.
One of my sims was taking the final exam, but his grades were at the highest, so even though he missed the final, he managed to complete the semester with C-

"Fixed a reset that occurred after multiple generations of large famlies that prevented death from completing properly for Sims in large, multi-generational families. Symptoms included missing inheritance, tombstones, and a lower Sim population cap per lot. "
deathfix is the one that fixes that. nocorruptdeath just fixes the squiggly line memories I think.
JM said that the squiggly line memories were created when a sim died and a second memory was created for that death, however with no subject. Why this memory was beeing created, was apparently not known, so i think that the following fix is the one corresponding to nocorruptdeath hack:
4. * Fixed issues that occur when the same Sim dies on multiple lots.

I installed the patch last night. Neighborhood options work fine. When I went back into the game this morning to play, my neighborhood options were actually saved!

yeah, well, they haven't fixed the sound problem with the bowling object. the ball hitting the pins still doesn't make a sound.
Also they did not fix the clog of unloading from vehicles, so school students will sitll clog the front door of the bus while they open their report card.
And also adults that come home from work and do that i'm home animation will do it in front of the carpool door, not allowing others to unload from the carpool.
They also didn't fix the students from university from ruturning from class and clogging the pedestrian portal.
MAXIS!!! please make sims unloading from carpools and bus, and uni stendents coming back form classes to walk to the mailbox first before doing their animations!
Fortunately we can still use the carpoolfix.package, nocheeringhack.package, moveawayfromportal.package with NL after patch with no issues.

Ahh... good to know. As for Pescado's hugginghack, I don't think it entirely eliminates the hugging, since I recall Pescado burninating after being called a softie or something for keeping that part in. :D Actually, I believe that it prevents the hugging from completely obliterating the child and the parents' queues. So instead, the hugging just gets queued up, but the priority isn't super high that it stops everything the child was doing.
I'm not sure if there is a hack that completely eliminates hugging altogether. There might be one, but I'm not sure. If by "no welcome home" you mean that Family sims don't do their "I'm home" animation, I believe dizzy2's hack for bringing home food (grocieries or pizza) from work also eliminates this animation altogether. But again, I don't think his hack eliminates the hugging. *shrugs*
