More Awesome Than You!

The Seasons patch is out already. It looks like it fixes a lot of bugs, surprisingly. Patch notes and download links here: http://simsvip.com/2012/10/29/sims-3-game-update-1-42-102912/

No doubt it will beak as many things as it fixes.

They finallyfixed the level 10 galloping horse glitch! Now if only they could take some time out of their busy schedule to fix the wedding presents bug, that would be nice.

I got it to install but only after getting the superpatch from SimsPrograms. Have sims swimming in the ocean already and have checked the blueprints. I am so glad they supposedly have fixed the teaching of songs for the sims to actually sing when doing that.

I cant get the super patch to install and the Region 2 download doesn't work,going to try and download it and install from the launcher.

Oh no! I just found out awesomemod was updated for patch 1.39 today, and now EA has added patch 1.42. I hope awesomemod doesn't blow up this time around... I do, however, look forward to the new features that were added.

Gah - more online shit added. At least they fixed the fish in inventory bug (or so they claim).

I have the sims 3,generations,late night,outdoor living stuff,pets,supernatural and world adventures installed.  Supernatural is patched  to 15.0.135.018001. (Is that the newest patch?)

Still no splash screen,and it's taking ages to load when I get past the splash screen. I has uninstalled everything and reinstalled,installed the framework,and still I have no splash screen and it's taking an age to load.

I know there is a thread on here that someone posted about this problem,so I'm away to have a read through that to see if I can fix this.

Damn, gotta do this 'patient' thing until Pes updates AM. Should have temporarily used the uninstall command before I patched this -_-

Now i wait for someone to hack the blueprints thingy for sharing. What's the point of blueprints if players can't share them?

I'm so glad that with the new attraction feature my neighbors have another reason to spam me with phone calls. I totally didn't have enough of that already.

You either don't install the patch until AM updates, or you install the patch and play without AM until it updates.  How fucking hard is that?

I only stopped by grah for a millisecond, is Pes aware of the update?  Witch gave him the heads up last time.  With the EP coming out soon I wonder if he will just wait for it.  Twallan posted a thread and a few of his more complex mods will require some extra work, so I'm sure AM will take a while to update.

JM does read the forum, you know.  :P

I haven't seen him around though, and occasionally because he is OLD, he misses things.  ;)

Likely he's too busy updating the AM to bother to do anything as pointless as keeping us updated on his progress.

No one pulled your fucking string bitch.  I was talking to witch and she knows what I am talking about, now fuck off.

I tried to go on the EA site yesterday and today, and I'm getting an "oops" page. I was under the impression EA's Sims business was in the Bay Area, therefore unaffected by Sandy. Am I wrong? Or has the site been permanently changed to the Origin site? Where will I go to ask my truly stupid questions without the forums there?

I was having that problem and had to wipe cookies for thesims3.com.

Ah... I spent some time away from this forum, but it's nice to know that everyone here is just as mature, articulate, pleasant, and not full of random hate for absolutely no reason as ever.  It's like coming home!

Fuck yea it is bitch! MOAR FIGHT!!!!

Patching is presently in progress. Damage levels are roughly what was expected. A test version will be out probably-sometime-tonight, if nothing crashes horribly.

Thanks for the update. Any borkage introduced with the new features?

Indeed, I shall wait until a stable AM version is out for the new patch. I waited this long to stumble upon 1.39; I certainly can wait for 1.42. It's too bad there isn't a lot of info on the attraction system. A few posts note sims will now ask your sim out and there is a new +10 moodlet for sims that are "attracted" to one another. Turn on/off chemistry does not make a comeback since it will probably rely on whether or not sims have similar traits and/or "attributes." Of course, I am glad that my beach houses will finally have a reason for being by the beach.

The Fat Obstreperous Jerk doesn't bother about making announcements. You have to check periodically yourself.

Question- is it ok that I just installed this patch over a 1.38 patch?  I never did 1.39 and didn't realize that until the patching process was underway.  The whole time the cancel button was grayed out and it seemed to update fine.  Does it just install whatever I missed out on in 1.39? Because did that bring diving boards finally?  That would suck a bit if I missed out on that should have been base game item.

It's perfectly fine to install 1.42 over 1.38, you don't need to install each individual update over each other until you reach 1.42 because that would be a waste of time.

Well I wish I had know that in the past! Oh well, good to know now. I am sure there will be another patch out next month at this rate so I will pay more attention this time around.
