How 's Everyone's games playing since November patch and hot fix?

I had a new error code coming up everytime I tried to play a certain family, and would be booted back to the main menu after the hotfix, but I managed to fix it by moving them in with another family and then back out again on their own. The crashing every 20 minutes that the patch brought has been fixed by the latest update and no lag etc. Still have the aging bug, but it's not the end of the world, the game is at least playable now.

After disabling the audio, I hadn't had any crash issue either. However, hot fix definitely solved the crashing problem for me.

The only thing i've noticed is in the new world (i cant remember the name) people are in and out of my house all hours and job promotions arent happening when they normally would

I had the crashing issue after the initial patch, but the hotfix fixed it. I do a repair as a matter of course, though as I've also been having Origin eat all my CPU after 3-4 packs, I just canceled all the packs out of the queue.

My game is now running as well as it was running before the November patch, which is to say there are random moments when it freezes to the point where I think it's going to crash (I think I'm on to a pattern here, but I'm not sure if it's real or my imagination), and then everything works again. I usually save right after I get those.

Hmm, that still doesn't inspire me yet to update. I'm so very tempted, but so very nervous.
Thanks for all your replies.

So far, so good. I never had any crashing, but updated anyway and then held my breath. I even have my mods and cc back in place. Yay, she's one happy camper. At least until the next patch comes along, that is …

Mostly fine but I wish the kids would stop going to school in their underwear or PJs.

The game is working fine for me, no crashes since the hot fix patch. My sims however are doing some things that are driving me crazy...

Cooking new food when there is food already in the fridge.
Getting distracted while cooking food/Walking away to do other things and leaving the food half prepared.
Kids and teens going to school in their nightwear.

Did many of the known glitches/bugs actually get fixed, or did it manage to create more?
I know about the Father Winter one, and have disabled him from turning up.

It’s not too bad since the new hot fix patch the one thing I have noticed is the sketch pad no longer completes art work for my teenage sim and this has nothing to do with the freelance career as she is in school. I don’t use mods and no longer have cc in my game so it’s not that. She can paint with the easel with no issue it’s just the digital sketch pad. I know it’s a minor thing but it is annoying.
