Fixes and Updates
The Sims 4
- macOS players should no longer encounter the setLocale.zsh error. However, both Origin and TS4 must be up to date.
- Sims will not have random accessories or clothing pieces when changing into towels.
- Style Influencer Sims can now remove trends they have created, with the Reset Trend interaction.
- Fixed an issue where Sims were not able to Care for Self after they had been in daycare when they were a Toddler.
- Some roofs were updated to remove the appearance of black sides when placed on ceilings.
- Active Sims will no longer get a Tense moodlet for lack of exercise when finishing exercising. Do you even push up bro?
- Sims will no longer get the Fatigued moodlet immediately after starting a workout. Now, we know that endurance takes time to build, but we decided to give Sims a chance to enjoy their workout before being completely fatigued right away.
- Child Sims will now be able to unlock the Video Gaming Skill after they have maxed out their Mental Skill instead of their Motor Skill, which was causing adult skills to reset for Child Sims when they completed aspirations.
- Fixed an issue in which some Households did not have their names displayed in Manage Worlds.
- Corrected requirements for completing the Great Landscaper task that is part of the Mansion Baron Aspiration.
- Fixed an issue in which when utilities are shut off (either because of past due bills or Off-The-Grid) adding objects from Build Mode such as Lamps, would add them turned On.
- The Water Pump, Fishing Holes, Romantic Gardenās Whispering Wishing Well, and Get Famousās Luminaryās Exotic Water Garden now have the Gather Water interaction when the Off-the-Grid Lot Trait is applied.
- Fixed an issue in which the Subtle Saucer Light was not being so subtle and made objects added from Build Mode be placed randomly when dragged near it.
- Teen Sims will now see the appropriate tooltip when trying to acquire the Fertile Trait from the Rewards Store. No, they are not Robots.
- Fixed an issue in which some Roof Eaves were clipping into enclosed blocks.
- Fixed an issue in which the Clean Up interaction would drop off the queue if dirty dishes were placed on a counter.
- Since we added a new trash bike to Eco Lifestyle, weāve made the bicycle helmet available for everyone in CAS. Now you can outfit your Sim in a helmet, regardless of owning a pack that includes bikes.
- Sims will now not receive occasional text messages asking them for a Date from other Sims that they are not romantically involved with. Because it was aaaakwardā¦
- Toddler Sims will not be able to Ask for Mentoring on some in progress mentoring interactions to strangers. Except for āInvite to Bob to Musicā because we can dance if we want to, we can leave our friends behind, ācause your friends donāt dance and if they donāt dance well... theyāre not friends of mine.
- Fixed an issue with textures for the tops and landings on some Staircases.
- Fixed an issue that did not allow randomizer to work correctly when Male Sims had Makeup on Create a Sim.
- Plants can now be placed closer to foundations with moveobjects cheat enabled, as long as most of the plant's footprint is outside of the foundation.
- Fixed an issue in which Simoleons were not added to Household Funds when moving and selling furniture.
- Fixed an issue in which previewing certain windows on diagonal walls reverted their color back to the default color swatch.
- Simmers on macOS Catalina and Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 GPU will no longer experience seeing a squared shadow under their Sims.
- Fixed an issue with the Wooden Prairie-Style Two-Panel door in which color swatches were not displaying correctly on both sides of the door.
- Sims now can dispose of packed lunches that have spoiled. Out, foul food!
- Fixed some oddness with disappearing Stairs within enclosed courtyards.
- Fixed a Stair issue with Landings not working properly on lots with raised foundations and basements. Sims will no longer walk through walls and things should now look appropriate.
- Fixed missing Career Promotion screens for careers in various packs.
- Fixed User Interface elements and Icons across multiple packs.
- Spandrels can now be properly applied on Fences.
- Stairs will now not shrink when increasing Foundation heights.
Get Together
- Fixed an issue in which non local Sim Townies would spawn in Windenburgās Island, now named The Crumbling Isle.
- As much as Windenburgians (Windenburgers? Windenburguese? Windenburglites?) love visitors from other worlds, they have voted them off the Island. Sorry, not sorry!
- Fixed an issue that caused an error to occur when deleting or editing Clubs.
City Living
- Fixed an issue that caused time to be desynchronized at Speed 3. Bending the space time continuum no more!
- Vet Clinics can no longer be placed in Penthouses.
- Yard Sale customers will no longer wander inside Simsā houses and interact with their belongings. While prospective buyers are nice to have in any sale, this was just rude, this is NOT a Welcome Wagon.
Cats & Dogs
- Game progress will no longer be lost when editing/adding/deleting career outfits in Create a Sim.
- Fixed an issue that made Petsā needs to not be fulfilled if not playing an active household.
- Petsā ehmā¦ poop is now able to be used as plant fertilizer. Happy gardening!
Seasons
- Sims can now sell Flowers in stacks from their Inventory.
- Sims will now appropriately put their Umbrellas away before performing some interactions. Because WooHoo while having an Umbrella out in the open, seems complicated, we are not judgingā¦ but seems complicated.
- Fixed an issue that made Simmer created Holidays in the Calendar populate after a season ended.
- Father Winter will now be able to remove his beard and change in Create a Sim if he is part of an active Household. But who would dare shave Father Winterās beard?? Who?!
Get Famous
- Fixed the issue with the Actor Career where Sims were unable to complete their gig when they would travel and return home before it was time for the gig.
Island Living
- Lotta Cocolatas will now be made with actual Coconuts taken from Simsā Inventories. What were they made from before? We will never know! Never accept imitation Lotta Cocolatasā¦ never!
- Fixed an issue in which some quick meals were requiring a Microwave while being Off-The-Grid when it is not needed. Yogurt needing a microwave? I think not!
- Mermaids in Create a Sim will no longer be able to have their Traits randomized. This allows them to keep their Mermaidism, as well as their air of mystery and charm.
- Mermaids now will wear appropriate career outfits when going to work. So I can picture this now, Mermaids as Doctors would be a great TV show.
- āDr. Mermaid/Merman, what do you recommend?
- āI am prescribing some Vitamin Seaā
- Give Russkii more coffee please...
- Fixed an issue in which some Island Living Tank Tops were categorized incorrectly in Create a Sim.
- Mermaid Children made in Create a Sim will now grow up to be fully-functioning Mer-dults.
- The Go To Work button for Odd Jobs has been fixed for Sims on Vacation.
- The Eyedropper tool will now work on Stilts instead of only working on the Foundation Trims.
- Fixed an issue in which Sims in Off-The-Grid lots were showering constantly. Now they will shower when appropriate. Though, with this heatwave, anything goes in my opinion!
Hello! I'm having a slight issue. I've been using your sims updates from your website for a while now (thank you for that by the way), but with this patch I installed- all my mods aren't even seen by the game. Every time I open the game I check enable mods and cc and script mods and apply the change, but when I close it and reopen it it doesn't save. I do put the mods in the documents<electronic arts<sims 4< mods. If you have an idea of what might've caused that it would be a great help. Thank you
This version you're commenting on is quite old already. You can use the latest The Sims 4 All in One Automatic [Including Nifty Knitting] if you subscribe or, otherwise, one of the versions below:
The Sims 4 Nifty Knitting All in One Portable 1.65.70.1020 [after uTip donation]
The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle All in One Portable 1.63.136.1010 [Including June 10th Patch] then The Sims 4 July 2020 Update Only 1.64.84.1020 [Requires All in One 1.63.136.1010] on top of it [both free]
Ok can someone explain to me when i click on my sim to load the game, it takes me back to the world page. I have taken out some of the mods and getting ready to load back in. I wanted to post this question to see what you guys might think is the problem.
Ouch. What happens with no mods at all? I am going to sleep right now, but I'll read your answer tomorrow. Maybe someone else can also comment below with a suggestion...
I know that Cheats UI needs to be updated or it breaks the entire game.
Oh, and there's this post... The Sims 4 Modpocalypse Lifestyle
Hi, I quite do not get it.
This update is not free, but is it included in the two more recent ones (that are free)? Or is your free cracks service over from this patch on? If it is, why not make the same article or update the current one?
PS: Your subscription thing is interesting (...) People search for mods bc they are free. But it do is interesting, even though I'd rather stick to seeing ads.
Maybe you can do this: premium gives one week early access on the free mod, no ads, on top of being updated automaticaly; while free = ads and one week late on the updates. That is to say, I suggest this in case you do stop the free mod service from this patch on. Bc you will obviously lose a lot of people.
Ads wouldn't be much, but considering the amount of people seeing them, it could be ok! And it would be on top of the subscriptions, so more interesting for you.
Thanks for your perspective, quite interesting actually!
The updates are rolled first to Premium Subscribers on The Sims 4 Automatic.
The Sims 4 Automatic has the added advantage of allowing people download and update their game without using torrents, which aren't allowed in many places.
The perks are a way to say thank you to my supporters. Without them I'd not be able to be doing this anymore, since ad revenues plummeted because of the virus. Plus I have extra expenses with the file delivery system and I have been working 18 hours a every day, sometimes more, without weekends or resting days, to keep the site up and reply to questions as soon as possible.
I agree with you that I should delay the torrents a bit, I will do that next time, your feedback is very appreciated š
I ended up releasing this one faster because it was a smaller patch that just fixes things and doesn't add new features.
It's very true that people stopped subscribing once I released the torrent versions, so I should really hold of on releasing them for longer (previously it took me about a day or two to work out the torrents after the Automatic, but I did not intentionally delay the torrents because I was naive and I thought people who could would subscribe š)
I wish you have a lovely day and thanks again! š„°
Hi! Thanks for the quick reply š
I actually suggested this, as it's obvious you're very dedicated to your website (answer to comments, always up to date quickly, functional and easy to use torrents, etc.), and deserve to be rewarded for this dedication.
A week would indeed be a good delay; because lets say someone subscribes and has a poor wifi connection, he'd get his update as soon as it's released for free, which is not very interesting for the price. Also, it's a real plus for people who have to use VPNs indeed. Torrents aren't allowed in my country, I have a hell of a slow wifi, and I'm not really protected against the governments' "radars". I'm still a student, so I'd consider getting the premium access too. I didn't realize first but it's in USD, so it's much cheaper than what I thought.
And, I'm actually curious about this virus? What happened?
Aw. You're very nice. I am very thankful for your insight and I think you're right. Whenever I released the torrent people stopped subscribing.
The yearly subscription through paypal is much cheaper than the other options as a way to reward people who stay with me through good and bad times.
I work alone, so I do my best when I am here, sometimes people get mad when I take a few hours to reply when I sleep, but I made peace with that, I am doing my best, I even reply when I wake up to use the washroom in the middle of the night, that's how committed I am š
What do you mean with this virus? COVID?
I think I'll have a yearly subscription then, and say my mom it's my birthday gift if she asks :p
You are very committed indeed, but please take care of yourself! Allow yourself some rest and time for you, or you'd end up having a meltdown... People on the Internet are always angry about something. You do your best, so as long as you are aware of this, don't take them too seriously and prioritize yourself. Over the years, I lost track of how many creators and fans for The Sims series left because of meltdowns. I've hardly ever been in contact with one of them, so please do not become one of them! ^_^
Oh yes, this virus! I thought you were talking about an IT virus XD..
Aw... Thanks for your words.
I need to slow down working on the site and the repacks for sure, or I'll just get sick beyond repair.
I am very grateful for having a very nice and understanding community here, but I always want to do more and more, I need to control myself to not burn out.
Today I slowed down a bit after releasing all the new content, even had a bunch of wine.
Yes, many Simmers gave up because of working too hard, I miss Curtis content, he was the best!
The only virus I am really worried about is COVID
Sometimes I mention handing the anti virus because anti virus software flags non contaminated items falsely just because they were modded. It's a constant on my tutorials.
Anyways, thanks a lot for your feedback. I had some wine and I am indeed relaxing a bit now, because I can't be on 100% power all the time.
I wish you enjoy your subscription š„°
Hello, I'm sorry, I have problem with my Zlorigin. After I updated the new patch and downloaded Eco lifestyle via Zlorigin I can't play it. Whenever I tapped play it I got a windo message that I have to enter the serial code. So I restart the computer, excluded the zlorigin from windows defender, and suddenly I can't login to the zlorigin. I already authing the zclient but the zlorigin keeps give me "online login is currently unavailable."
It was normal before the update, I can login like usual. What am I supposed to do??
Hi! It's agest since I ever used ZL Origin, sorry.
You can see that I don't follow their releases anymore, therefore maybe it's time for you to move on from ZLOrigin to something like The Sims 4 All in One Automatic 1.63.134 [Eco Lifestyle] or The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle All in One Portable 1.63.134.1020
will there be an all in one portable update?
Maybe tomorrow, it takes longer and I am really exhausted, but you can use the All in One on top of your files, my new tutorial above shows exactly what to do, so you don't redownload what you already have.
Hi hi when will the update be available to non premium subscribers? Thanks š
I am compiling the new all in one RIGHT NOW
Oh thank you so much.... you're awesome. can't wait. š
Released!
hi when will this be available for free ?
The Patch won't.
The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle All in One Portable will, and it will include the patch in it.
Another day or two, hopefully?
Hi! Please tell me if i understand correctly: i have your mod without the latest patch and eco lifestyle, if i want them i have to install all in one (when it comes out) or subscribe to automatic? like, there won't be individual downloads of the patch and dlc?
Hi! If you have 1.62 (Hellos Update) there will be an update only version to Eco Lifestyle 1.63.134.1020
If you have an older version you'll need to use the All in One.
The Sims 4 All in One Automatic 1.63.134 [Eco Lifestyle] is the only one available right now, because it's distributed differently. I will need at least a few hours to put together the new All in One Torrent and another few hours for the update only version, sorry.
Also, The Sims 4 Automatically will always be somehow one step ahead, since whenever there's something new I just need to test it, apply the patch / fix / update and you'll all get the files synchronized right after when you're connected and running the app
Hihi, I have donated and registered. I have received Yandex shared folder, however my account not upgraded because I want to see the download instructions. thank you very much. this website is awesome š
Fixed. Thank you so much for your patience! I surely forgot to click somewhere when I "updated" your profile. Instructions at The Sims 4 All in One Automatic
Thank you so much š You are amazing!
hey, thank you for updating this news.. I really appreciated your kindness to make me still updated about sims 4, I wanna ask... if the official eco-lifestyle pack just released, do I just have to update my sims 4 till the latest update or there will be a new all in one portable that I must download? (note: I already have all the latest update from this site)
The Sims 4 All in One Automatic is updated automatically by Yandex Disk App in the background and it already has the pre Eco Lifestyle patch applied.
The regular All in One will be released in a couple of days with Eco Lifestyle and also an update version for people who are on 1.62 (Hellos and Fixes Update).
The Sims 4 Automatic is always the first to be updated.
Hi! I have a friend who hasn't updated her game since Discover University came out, but who is now very much interested in getting this next pack when it comes out and I'll be trying to help her remotely lol. How does the update work in this case? Will downloading just the latest patch work or does she need to do it incrementally in some way?
Also, I myself haven't bothered with updates after the one we got with tiny living, so similar case but less drastic I guess. Thanks for your time!
Hi! It's better to use a new All in one or, if possible, The Sims 4 All in One Automatic which receives new updates before anything else.
I'm sorry I'm still confused haha. Does that mean reinstalling the whole game? I've never used All in one.
Yes, basically.
The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle All in One Portable is the tutorial for the All in One.
The Sims 4 All in One Automatic is for Premium Subscribers only, then you'd be able to see it. It's nice because you don't need to worry about updating it manually once all is set up and it's one of my "thank you" gifts to my supporters.
hey i have your automatic which is awesome! question- eco lifestyle isn't installed, it says click to download on my sims 4 homescreen and i can't obviously because it wants to connect to internet. any help?
Hi. It will be available in a day or two, whenever EA releases it, sorry. Your Sims Automatic should be updated when your Yandex Disk App synchronizes it with mine after I update it on my end.
hi, i pay today for monthly access, but i cant download patch, why? thank you for answer.
Hi! Thank you so much for your message! I emailed you on your PayPal email address, but I believe perhaps you didn't receive my message with instructions, sorry.
I just upgraded your account here, now I need your Yandex User Name to invite you to Yandex Disk's shared folder.
Hi! When will it be available as an update only (not the sims automatic)? thanks!
Only when The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle is released. The Sims 4 All in One Automatic is updated to 1.63.133.1020 already, but it's exclusive to Premium Subscribers
Hi ! Now that the eco lifestyle patch is out, when will the ladder update be available for free ?
It will be included on The Sims 4 Eco Lifestyle All in One Portable 1.63.134.1020
Hi Iām just wondering when the sims 4 automatic will be updated.
Love this site š
Hi! Thanks for your message! I just updated it!
Hello! Do you know when it is going to be avaliable?
The patch is available right now if you have The Sims 4 All in One Automatic
When is this patch available to download?
Hi! I don't know yet, we were expecting it today, but EA postponed it for tomorrow. I also need to wait for the modded version to become available, hopefully sooner than later š
Is this link available yet?
The Sims 4 All in One Automatic
is that the paid for one? is there a free one?
Yes, Premium Subscribers are the generous people who donate me a small amount monthly to help me keep the site going. Today's patch is exclusive to them.
Non subscribers will need to wait until the next All in One with Eco Lifestyle is released in a few days.
so when eco is released, the patch will be in there?
i wont have to DL them individually?
When Eco Style is available I'll release a new All in One and also an Update Only patch for people who are on 1.62.
Thank you š
Hi, I have the latest all-in-one version, with Tiny Living, do I have to download the all-in-one version with Eco Lifestyle or will there be an update only version that I can download? I love this new update, do you know when it will be available to download here?
(Also I love your website)
Hi! There will be an update only version from the last release (incremental). I'll likely share G4TW's Eco Lifestyle later on as well for people who did not install the latest update in May.
I'm SOO excited for the free windows and doors placements! And the changes to the inventory are honestly my favorite edit. That's going to make game play so much better. I'm stressed for the havoc this is going to cause all my mods and cc. I have 4000 to deal with š and I'm about to download more. Thanks for keeping us informed!
Wow! 4000 CC items and mods? That's just awesome! I am also excited mostly for the new building features. I wish they gave us an auto pay for bills with the update as well, it's unrealistic to have to open your mail box to pay your bills manually LOL.
