Great news- please don't forget everyone to backup your Documents\ Electronic Arts\ The Sims 3 folder before installing this, and remove your mods before playing. Check with the creators for information on whether your mods/ CC are compatible with this new patch.

CAW users- you will most likely need to wait until EA release an updated version of CAW before it will work with this patch; backup your CAW userdata before doing anything.

Not for me. I don't see a note that says:

-Removed Romance Reputation because it's FUBAR

TS2 and TS3: Where adult sims potty train their toddlers.
TS4: Where adult sims make Angry Poops.

Which game is made for the juvenile minded?

I thought that was intentional. My children always wanted to ride more when I took them off.

Some good fixes though. Maybe the Daycare career will work now.

That is one long list for Generations. So glad I didnt rush out and buy it. Now it's the waiting game for mods to be updated. I don't think I can ever go back to vanilla gameplay...

Only mods that I use that are updated are Velocity's no mosaic mod, and memory mod. I haven't played yet, trying to check and see which of my mods are updated and add those too. Twallan's havent been just yet, but he's super quick about updating his mods, so not worried about that at all. So maybe I'll play partially vanilla (with a little nuts sprinkled here and there), until my game is fully back and running. there's some new custom worlds I wanted to check out anyway.

Wait a second!! I just saw that sims can no longer have a "negative amount of memories in there scrapbook"? Does that mean the no memories mod can't work? I really hope that's not what it means, the save files with memories is atrocious!!! Barely playable!!!

I'll be waiting to install this for a few days, probably in a week or so when Twallan's mods are for sure updated.

Nah, I imagine Shimrod's mod works like Velocitygrasses. It just removes the "IsLifeEvent" tag from events, so they don't get flagged as memories.

"The Imaginary Friend doll can no longer be buried in Sandboxes to prevent the Sim from losing it forever."

Sad. What if I actually want to lose it forever? That was the easiest method so far.

I haven't actually checked, but I believe Shimrod's no memory mod sets the maximum number of memories from 300 to 0.

Btw, skimming over the changed GameplayData.package files I noticed that they've added new auto venue placements for a town called "Hidden Springs". I guess that will be the name of a new town in the store, unless it somehow found its way in early from Pets by accident.

Yep, you're right. I just checked. Oh well, ignore what I said earlier then. I guess that is an easier way of doing it if you just want to turn them off.

Or they're hidden springs. It could be a town for Town Life suff(unlikely)

I can't even patch mine because it gets to 99.99% every time and says "An error has occoured" or something like that.
