Granted they made new ones but then they fixed those. Twice. LOL. I can understand not wanting to update, but what I do is wait a little bit after a patch is released to see what it breaks, then wait for EA to release a couple more patches fixing what they broke, then I update once they are done. LOL. It seems to be a good method for me. But it's your game, you just have to be careful mod wise because people will release updated mods for the latest patch level, and you don't want to download those as it won't work right with the previous patch level you are on.


You can postpone TS4 updates and still play? How do you do that?

It's a setting in origin. You can do it with origin updates too. Go to origin->application settings->application and scroll down to the client update section. It's called "Automatic game updates" and click the green button to turn it off. To turn off auto origin updates click the green button next to "Automatically update Origin". The button should turn gray.

Thanks for your help. Really cool.

I think updating the game or not is a choice.
When you use 150 mods, it's always a risk to update the game.

And when you begin to have bugs and last exception error messages, good luck to check all your 150 mods to find which one is no more compatible.
So yes, that's a choice. Do I want a stable modded game or do I want to frequently update my game ?

Anyway thank you ! Will try the version 1.6.

This has to be new then, because before if you didn't update, you would not be able to start TS4. Omg this saves me a lot of troubleshooting then for someone else, thanks!

Thanks this mod Helps. After the new patch the game improved a lot. But still had small lags which this mod fixes.
I Also learned to keep testing cheats off. It causes lots of lag and lastException freezes.

For me I also had to put Origin in Offline mode. It would not start game if it new there was a update. Auto Update just stops it from auto downloading and installing.

That's weird I've never had to go in offline mode when there's a patch. *shrugs*

Awesome. Thanks. Does anyone know if this conflicts with MCCC? I use it for (oh, so much) lengthening the sim day.

It works for me with mccc but I haven't messed with the days in mccc so I can't confirm it works with that function. But I don't get any last exception files from using the two together.

It seems MCCC v4 is not working with this. Also, once updating to v4 the game's been lagging again. They're clearly incompatible.

Hmm it's working fine for me, I have updated versions of both mods and no issues.

Last night I got some last exceptions from both mods in, when I removed this the game ran smoother, but then I started to get a ton more last exceptions and a boatload of lagging, so I've no idea what's going on. MCCC maybe isn't compatible with up-to-date versions of the game? Hm. My changes to settings don't work. I'm sorry, it's probably not this mod that's the problem.

After I diactivated Pets addon in Origin, the lag has gone. All works fine again with this mod now. I am using WW and MCCC 4 and tons of mods.

I use MCCC 4.0 with this mod and no problems with them. Any LEs might be either to 1. another mod conflict, or 2. EA bugs (pretty certain there is a bug re. parties/social events)

I think it's broken again. Sims were sitting around before they would go ahead and do what was in their action queue.

i see them stand around doing nothing way too often again. before the patch, the mod worked fine, as usual. there is a bit in the lastException file that reads: "File "clayifiedsims_simulationfix.py", line 23, in update &#10".

Default Lagging
I was playing last night and it was some serious lag. My employees in my store and even my playable sims would just stand there like they were frozen for a long time. And my retail employee I had set to ring up customers never moved at all, even after 2 Sim hours. I have the latest patch from a few days ago.
