Sorry if any of this has already been mentioned. I read the first few pages then went to the end because I didn't want to slog through all 32.
Anyway, I have the base game and the patches with only a few store items (though I was planning on buying the first three expansions today.) I never use Mods and the only CC that I have are some patterns I downloaded through the exchange. I made the mistake of not saving my files in a separate location first but I have only played in one of my saved files since updating. (I was starting a Legacy Challenge though so all I wanted to do was basically get Tamara Donner pregnant again, so I'd have some more children for the next gen to potentially marry, before switching to my freshly made Founder for the duration.)
One of the kids lost the Handiness skill he gained from playing with the blocks (at least I think he did... he has a twin brother, so sometimes I get them a little mixed up.) The biggest problem was however the fridge! They ate the leftovers from the main plate but couldn't eat any of the individual dishes and I can no longer remove anything from it. I tried deleting the fridge and buying another one but it changed nothing. I haven't yet tried making another meal to place in it, after emptying the fridge entirely, or emptying the fridge and then buying it again. I also had some trouble with grabbing items and deleting them in the inventory. :(
After that, when I switched to the Legacy Founder, she initially couldn't go into the Gym! I couldn't click through the levels of the building to see inside either, it was greyed out initially. I tried sending her away and then back to the gym. I also tried reclassification. First to a park and then back to a gym. Then to a residential lot and back to a gym. I don't remember if I sent her away before or after the latter classification. Either way it started working after that but it gave me a horrible scare! I've never had a problem with this before so I'm assuming the patch was to blame.
Oh, and with my Sim family before that, they lost some major wants! Everyone in the family was missing their family member related desires. It wasn't a huge loss but it was very frustrating, particularly since this probably means it will happen in some of my other saved games.
