So like a lot of people I lost all my relationships with the most recent update, unfortunately I can't recover without loosing months of gameplay (my own fault, I saved a bunch of times before I noticed the issue) but I'm trying to manually restore everyones relationships using modifyrelationships, and for some reason it only works for romance_main not friendship_main. I've used the cheat many times before, so I know how to use it, and its just not working at all.If anyone has any idea why or how to fix it I'd appreciate it.

I just got out of a chat with someone at EA and they have pretty much said it's not going to be a big priority for them as they "Don't normally support cheats" and just as i was replying the adviser disconnected the chat! this may a problem that lasts for a while. it's like EA don't acknowledge the fact that around 90% of sims users use cheats at some point during the game play. I could understand this issue being low down on a list if the game was some how being manipulated in regards to online play but the sims has had this feature since the original game! i hope and expect that this problem is going to cause sales to drop in their next expansion pack launches if the cheats haven't been fixed by then. poor show

As of today (it worked yesterday), with the Cats and Dogs expansion pack, the modify friendship relationship cheat is not working for me but the romance one is. I even copied the romance one that worked and modified the word to friendship and it didn't work. I am mod free, so I know its not a mod issue.

For the past few days since the update cheats, specifically for skills are not working. I read three days ago they are aware of the issue and I've been trying to be patient. However I haven't found any new information. Is there a time line for when this will be fixed? It would be great if I could actually play the games I've paid for. This is ridiculous!

Hi there!
I just downloaded and installed new Sims 4 seasons only to discover that a lot of options are not working! I am particularly annoyed that buffs cheats stopped working (eg Sims.add_buff focusedHigh). I can find (probably because I am fuming that I spend 40EU for something that makes my game play worst !!!!!!!) a right place to publish my issue or to add my vote as "me too" for somebody who already rapport it.
Would you be so kind to show me where would it be? Thanks!!

The update you just got would be the Seasons Patch. It's an update (patch) for the game to prepare the game for the Seasons expansion pack, hence it's called the Seasons patch.

Is there any way to uninstall the update? I dont plan on getting the seasons expansion because it is so expensive so i wouldnt need the patch for it.

So since downloading Seasons/the new update, half of the cheats don't work. Skill cheats don't work, when I reset a sim who got stuck, they lost all of their skills. It's not a lot of fun.
