So, does anyone know if the residential rental lot being able to be changed back to residential or another lot type is really fixed with this patch?

I checked and it seems like it was fixed. I had a lot that was stuck on residential rental. When I booted up the game after the patch, it was back to being a residential.

Can anyone help? Since updating, my sim self and his wife cannot click on and interact with any other sims in the worlds. Their child sims can interact with their parents and other sims in the worlds. I've removed MCCC and a CC career mod and they still cannot interact with other sims.

There is a bug report open on AHQ and it seems to be affecting many players. It is game-breaking and hopefully can/will be fixed soon. Until then, that save/sim is broken and not even putting them in a new save will help.

That's the one!

The social menu not appearing for certain sims is really baffling. Julianna and Juliette cannot click on any other sim in the household. Hannah still has the social menu for both Julianna and Juliette. They can all interact with the pets, horse, and farm animals.

Looks like i'm not playing until a hot fix is sorted for this. My sim self's kids Ashley and Hannah can click on everyone but my sim self and his wife Emily can't. My sim self's grandson Brian seems unaffected.

Well, I took a chance on this update, as I was about to go and buy the rental pack.
MY money stays in my pocket after 2 hours of EVERYTHING going wrong after updating.
Game failing to load on every teleport to a new lot or world.
Game dresser code overiding all my settings and clothing choices from CAS.
Seems EA/Maxis coders have broken just about every mod that makes the game worth playing.

In total, Well Done EA\Maxis, you've outshone yourself this time.
We the customer do not pay you to bug test your software for you, get that through your skulls.
And yes, If sound a bit angry, it's because of you EA\Maxis

My life work depended on me getting it right first time every time or real people would really die.
(I was an engineer in a diversity of roles. Mostly emergency work.)
There's a tip for you, do a better job and do some real test playing and bug hunting yourselves.
Just because it compiles, does Not mean it is good workable code!

Wait. Surely I am misunderstanding this. There is a shopping cart that pulsates light being tried out in the game and it cannot be removed? Pulsates light as in a possible migraine and seizure triggering fashion? Surely I am misunderstanding this. Surely they know how awful this can be for players with certain medical conditions. I'm angry enough that they've put a shopping cart in the game. But a pulsating one? I'm a little beyond angry about just how insensitive that is. Surely, someone will tell me that I am misunderstanding this.
