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

My game ran perfectly fine before the hot fix.

Now it won't load. It crashes straight away. I've repaired my game 3 times, cleared cache, removed mods, reset Origin.

I set to play for a couple of hours before bed, and now it's late and I have to get to bed. I'm at the point of giving up :disappointed:

Quoting myself for an update. It turns out my saves have been loopy since the update. I removed my Save folder and now the game loads. I'm relieved my game still works, but disappointed I lost my saves :disappointed:

my game is locking up...still testing and running through some of my mods.

The only issues I have since the patch are club members don't change into their club outfits and the sketch pad still doesn't work.

My issues i have now is sims jumping when trying to blow out the candles on a cake , moving the cake to a counter sorts it though , The most annoying is now how they cook a meal , usually on the bbq and then put it down and don't eat any but instead decide to cook another meal

plus the constant drinking water or washing hands bug is back once more

No crashing here, although my game did freak out when I went into CAS after adding some CC - I thought it'd crashed but it came back to life just before I was going to shut it down with Task Manager (thank goodness - I hadn't saved for a while).

I did have a problem where my Sim wouldn't finish painting. She kept charging outside to use the basketball hoop every couple of minutes. So I sold it.

I am having some routing problems at times with issues on lots which were fine previously. I also resized a room with a platform in it which caused an "obstruction" until I demolished the house.

Just experienced a crash today & my sims needs are decaying much faster. Not sure if it’s only me with the crashing tho /;

I just logged in and was about to play when I noticed there was a patch update? Does anyone know what it's supposed to do? I've been having serious lag time since the hot fix and I didn't want to patch again if it was going to make things worse. I guess what I'm saying is can I play without patching it right now?

Yes, go into Origin and left hand corner, scroll down to offline mode. You won't get the notification to update.
Each time you play you'll need to reset that to offline, but it's worth it.

EDIT - I just went to see what that update was, and I can't find it. I can only see the November 10 one and then the November 17 one?

Anyone else know what that one is?

No crashes but I lost the ability to rotate with scroll wheel and there is no top down view available in camera.

I've gotten stuck on an inifinite loading screen twice since the most recent patch.
I've also noticed a lot of sims that are in relationships constantly flirting with each other. Not sure if that is a bug or if it has to do with the new sentiment system, but it's kinds annoying because they keep making all conversations awkward.
