Thank you so much for saying this and thank you for that little bit of encouragement you gave me (lol).
I'm not sure I was entirely in my right mind while I was trying to test it -- not freaking out, ya know, but just really, really upset and thinking it was *ME*!
I'm racking my brains for how to get ALL this progress into another save, and what I'm picturing is just crazy. Like, you could do it but it would take (real time) days and days and days? (That's how I picture it.) Imagine all the collections. How do you replace the fish collections? You can't get those with a cheat.
As you see fit, please report back after you test it. I'm still sitting here trying and trying to figure out what is going on, but I think honestly it's ... just ... still broken. And yeah, it is so difficult to tolerate playing with this bug, and I tolerate lots of bugs. I work most of them into my gameplay and laugh and shrug it off.
I am so glad for these responses. It's like water in the desert.
Quick note to whoever/anyone who sees this: I don't think they even touched fixing a lot of these, as anneb9900 mentioned above. My guys are still walking with feminine walks. This is GREAT news, to me at least. It means they're still working on these other bugs and might just throw out a series of updates. I wish they would. I don't mind numerous updates over a short period if they're tossing out what's fixed as it comes up. I think it would be GREAT. Plus then the coders can feel a sense of accomplishment and fling their arms with joy, like the little sims do.
