💝 New Features 💝
Are your Sims looking for love? Maybe they’ve already found it? With this update, your Sims have a new relationship option in Create a Sim. Sims can start out Engaged if they set their relationship to Fiancé. With this new relationship option, your Sims will be ready to experience the upcoming My Wedding Stories Game Pack to its fullest.
Do you love Weddings? What about building? If you do, we’ve got you covered. There is a new Wedding Venue lot type that can be created by anyone who owns The Sims 4. Love knows no bounds and neither do Wedding Venues.
We heard you like music… The World station is now available for everyone, with four new songs added with My Wedding Stories in mind. Previous World station songs will continue to be part of their original pack, but everyone can enjoy these new songs as part of the base game experience. Additionally, the perfect love song that was featured in the My Wedding Stories trailer is available on the Romance station for anyone who is looking to listen to it over and over again.
There are also a few Create a Sim item updates for all players. To support My Wedding Stories, we’ve added a few new items plus additional color swatches to some older ones. New items include a bindi, a toddler full body swimsuit, and french tip nails. We have updated 10 items with a variety of new colors, spanning all ages and genders:

The Sims 4 - Valentines Day - February 15th Patch 1.84.171.1030 Bug Fixes
The Sims 4 - Base Game
- Male Celebrity Sims will no longer use the feminine walking or jogging walk style unless that's what you prefer them to do.
- Clicking on a Sim's face in Create a Sim will take you to the general Face, Hair or Accessories selection mode now instead of taking you to the Detail Edit Mode straight away. Sims do also deserve a little personal space.
- Improved performance when switching from Live to Build Mode in certain cases.
- Fences should no longer disappear when hovering a gate over them after using the bb.moveobjects cheat.
- Playing with Genetics in Create a Sim will no longer generate Teens with crow's feet skin details. There are so many things that teenagers worry about - crow's feet shouldn't be one of those things.
- Error 142: 9a63747c should no longer appear in future saves when loading certain lots.
- Sim can move or travel to lots after returning from a concert now without getting stuck in the Manage World screen.
- Selecting the yfHair_SP19CurlyUndercut_Red hair style for your Sim in Create a Sim will no longer apply the color of the hair to the Sim's eyelashes.
- Children should have matching eye colors of their parents now if both parents have purple or red eyes.
- Some players reported an error saying "Entitlement missing" when attempting to move or delete walls of Lots placed from the Gallery. This error should no longer occur.
- Obese Sims’ upper bodies should no longer shrink in size when zooming out while wearing specific outfits (ymTop_EF15ShirtCollared & yfBody_SP16Pajama).
- Turning off the console legend option in the game options menu will now properly hide controller hints from time control and Sim selectors.
- Long nails no longer poke through the gloves of certain outfits.
- Fixed some issues that may cause an endless loading screen when attempting to load certain lots or saves.
- The Create a Sim interface was a little slow when loading thumbnails and color swatches in the hair section. We made some tweaks, and the images should load much faster now.
- There was a funky toddler thumbnail displayed under the Accessories section for toddlers. This thumbnail did not serve any purpose and has been removed. Enough funk for you, sneaky toddler.
- Heeled shoes no longer appear glitched while wearing ymBottom_EF28JeansSkinTight pants.
Cottage Living
- Grim Reaper now possesses the emotional fortitude to deal with the death of two animals at the same time. Life can be harsh buddy, I know.
Pants ymBottom_EP11PantsCorduroy_SolidGinger should now properly appear when selecting the masculine filter. We also updated the fit on feminine frames. - The yfHair_EP11BunTwists_broen hairstyle should no longer create white lines on your Sims face when selecting this hair style in Create a Sim.
- Toddler shorts pfBottom_EP11ShortsDrawstring no longer show a gap between upper and lower body.
- Wisteria and Ivy plants placed against a wall inside a room appeared darker in some spots than they should have. We shed some light on those plants and they should appear much better now.
Eco Lifestyle
- Lots in Evergreen Harbor should now have some proper ground beneath them when accessed through build mode and the world should not look like it's underwater any longer.
Discover University
- The yfTop_EP08CardiganButtonup top now works properly with boots.
Dream Home Decorator
- Dress yfBody_GP10DressSuspender_SquareNavy no longer causes discoloration on certain shoes.
- GP10SkinnyJeanFlanel pants look fabulous combined with boots now.
- The ymBottom_GP10WorkPants should now be properly resizable on male Sims.
- The Mid Century Style Filter will include items from all packs now, not just from Dream Home Decorator.
- Switching from Build and Buy Mode to Live mode and back to Build and Buy mode while working on an Interior Decorator gig, caused the amount of Simoleons already spent not to be deducted from the Client budget. This has been fixed now and the Client budget should always account for already spent Simoleons.
Star Wars: Journey to Batuu
- We fixed an issue that caused Batuu Credits to be falsely displayed as Simoleons in the Household Funds.
Strangerville
- You can harvest Bizarre Fruits from Bizarre Plants now. ΜØŦĦ€Ř... ĆΔŁŁŞ ŦØ Μ€…
Spa Day
- Sims with the Self-care Specialist Aspiration can sell Harvestables without issues now.
Dine Out
- There was some discrepancy in Perk points shown for business owner Sim in the "Owned Business" menu vs. the "Restaurant Perks". The "Owned Business" menu will show the correct number of remaining Perk points going forward.
Tiny Living
- Toddlers should no longer have a bald spot on their head when wearing hair styles from Tiny Living. Hair clippers should be stored outside the reach of children.
Blooming Rooms Kit
- Some plants from the Blooming Rooms Kit were updated to not cast a wrong shadow any longer.
Fashion Street Kit
- Pants ymBottom_SP24ShortsTied & ymBottom_SP24PantsLayered do also no longer cause clipping when paired with boots.
Courtyard Oasis Kit
- The Star of Paradise Fountain can be found in the Build & Buy catalog now when applying the Kits filter.
Oh k thank you, I notice that whenever I go into build mode last night, come back out click on sim nothing showing up when I click on them and nothing at the bottom like the phone etc disappear.
You're welcome! Are you using mods?
Yes I think it the simrealstic private practice, when I place a clinic on the lots, an errors came up, and basemental gang as well. I took out the basemenal gang and update the private practice. So I will check that mods out.
Yes, this sounds like a mod problem then. Keep in mind most members of our premium community on Patreon voted to not have the patch 1.84 applied to the game before the new DLC is out. so you need to use mods that are compatible with version 1.83 if you're not using the Lab Version with Gallery (the lab version is up to date on 1.84 already).
What is the lab version with gallery? Is that new?
Hi! The lab version with gallery is around for about a year or so and, as its name says, it's an experimental (lab) version with on line access to the gallery.
It's available to subscribers on the tiers with Lab Access.
Is the 1.84.171.1030 update in yandex?
Hi! Only the Lab (with gallery) has the 1.84 update applied. The Sims 4 Automatic is on 1.83 because I had a poll on Patreon and the vast majority of people voted to wait for the DLC to come out to update the game.
Since they postponed the DLC I will likely run another poll tonight to see if I should still wait or release it.
