As long as they will devour the pudding face fairies I'll take them, even if they were to fly backwards. Which they probably will, but I already got used to that.

Because you JUST patched, I patched my game this morning and all the stuff is still in my game. Once they found out they messed up, they switched patches. Theyre going to have to issue a new one for us who patched right away, because we still have the content, werewolf sliders, skintone ramps, new special effects, and pointy ears.

To me, this one really seems like something they couldn't have possibly overlooked.

I'm straight, and I would adore the feature of sexual preference. so maybe I wouldn't have accidental Frerard or anything else like that.

How do you test the code/effects in the game?

Oh, and just to check, you could download my updated NoMosaic mod, which should include these effects. If there really was another update, I should revert that. I was pretty sure that they wouldn't change any effects in this patch, and then when the one from 1.31 and 1.32 were not binary same I investigated...

Btw, the installer filename for me was TS3_1.32.3.0150xx_update.exe.

I miss Maxis !

You do know that it Maxis who made the Expansion Pack this expansion pack is most likely alluding to. Makin' Magic. Honestly a touch of magic wouldn't be bad. I like season cause it added an aspect of realism. But I'm love the supernatural and this seems like a fun EP. Especially if they make a world similar to Magic Town.

Well, Maxis wouldn't bring weather, as it was actually EA that did that.

Who's developing the game doesn't appear to be the problem this time around.
