I'm aware that we had a patch recently that claimed to fix the leaf pile issue. I've patched my game but can't play at the moment as I've got too much uni work to do but I was wondering,Has the leaf pile issue actually been resolved? and how so? (I'm guessing they still appear but are they de-spawning now? I would hope they do that before turning green rather than at the beginning of winter)And also, does anyone know if Bienchen's leaf pile destroy mod is still working? I noticed it hasn't had an update since the patch in question.

In my game the fix patch did nothing, I still have to burn then several times before they disappear.

From my understanding you have to wait until the end of fall before they actually disappear for good. So if you have a save in winter you will have to wait till the end of fall the next year before they go away. This info is from the gurus on twitter.

What's the current status of leaf piles?

Wow!
After all the trouble they've been, wow!

Do they go by themselves or do sims still have to burn/dispose of them?

Do you have the patch which claimed to fix them? (I think it was the one before last).

Hmm, so there's mixed results with the apparent 'fix'. I don't know why it took them so long to get to it TBH.

Had you already passed the end of Fall/beginning of Winter before you patched? If so, then maybe it needs that specific time to trigger the fix.
I hope this isn't one of those fixes that only prevents the problem in new saves.

I don't think I did, to be honest. But they are currently generating throughout spring and now summer in my game. Before, they only spawned in fall and were difficult to get rid of, right?

I thought they only spawned in Fall as well. Ugh! What a mess! :s
