So this is just something form Mac users? :neutral:

No it has some bug fixes for pc as well. See patch notes in my post I added.

This proves we can get patches when their working from home now.

Get Famous

Actor prep tasks will no longer reset on traveling.
This is the second travel issue in the game… was it trying to tell us something?

Spa Day

The “Take bath with Soaks” and “Take Mud Bath” interactions are once again, once again available on Showertubs.
This time we won’t have to remove the fix because of… crosses fingers.

Quick, someone take a look into the code for hints. ?? Crosses fingers too

Console is getting this patch today as well.

Just bug fixes. Not even a t-shirt or bunny ears or anything

Beaches can have weddings now and they fixed the missing spa day interactions on bathtubs. That makes it worth it for me.

This was perfect timing. I've got a couple in my current game who I'm hoping to have beach wedding and I was trying to suss a workaround. Now I won't have to!
Time to build that beach wedding venue I was planning!
Also pleased to see the spa day interactions back for the bathtubs. <3
I'm also interested to see whether the Actor career task reset fix does anything with my actress Rebecca or whether she genuinely is a terrible actress ?

But yeah, awful small patch, it disappoints me :( I would love to have a huge patch with tons of bug fixes....but it is most likely too much work for them.

Wasn't there a big one with a LOT of fixes before Christmas? This one, I believe.
So not "too much work for them", as you so politely put it. Bug fixes aren't quite that straightforward; these will be bugs that were easier to fix without breaking some major and important in the process. Some of these were bugs people noticed some time ago; so it stands to reason they've been fixed if they've finally got a stage where they are fit for release, as it were. Other things, like beach weddings for example, were probably easier to do while the team is working from home. I don't know how simple or difficult it is for bigger issues to be solved with the team working from home. I would imagine though that's quite tricky.

So I don't think it's fair to say it's too much work for them when they have released huge patches before with a lot of fixes. This is a difficult time for everybody right now and I can only imagine how complicated it can be to do this kind of job from home. I think it's great we got a patch while the team's working from home.

Still not fixed are the tv,stereo bookcase combos that came with Tiny Living. Sims can't see the holiday events on the tv.

That Get Famous acting career travel error is only just being fixed?! Unbelievable. That issue is what me stop playing over a year ago. I thought it would have already been fixed forever ago. It's ridiculous how long it takes them to fix bugs.
