New Bugfix Mods
- Theresa2008 – All Espresso Drinks Give Moodlets as Intended – Oct 21 (released Oct 27), MTS – Corrects a City Living bug where espresso “For Here” doesn’t give a buff (Energized etc.). Also available in an “and stronger” version.
- LittleMsSam – RBF - Help my stuck Cows/Llamas Workaround Fix – updated Nov 3, own site/CF – This bugfix mod is to help fix Cottage Living animals stuck in inventory. Read the instructions on how to use it in-game. Bug report here.
- Buffalonian – Sulani Fish Fix – Nov 4, Sim File Share – a bugfix mod for fishing spots not working in Sulani. Bug report here.
- diemilchschnitte – Sulani Fishing Spot Fix – Nov 7, CF/own site – Bug report here.
- MAL22 – Grimborn Trait Genetics Fix – Nov 8, itchio – “The Grimborn trait added in the Life & Death expansion pack incorrectly alters and breaks genetics for babies conceived with the Grim Reaper. This mod prevents this issue from occurring. Note that this fix is not retroactive and babies conceived prior to installing this mod will not be affected.” Bug report here. NOTE: because of how the coding of this needs to work, the Grimborn birthmark will be visible in Live mode but not in CAS
- Bienchen (sims4me) – Funeral Goal Fix – Nov 9, CF
only(upl. to own site Dec 28)– “Fixes a bug where your Sims were unable to achieve gold level at funerals.” - Bienchen (sims4me) – Mournful Eulogy Reaction Fix – Nov 9,(
not yet on own siteupl. to own site Dec 28) – “no more clapping and cheering after mournful eulogys.” Possibly not technically a bugfix, but will feel like one for some players. - Natabear – On Hallowed Grounds' Lighting Bug Fix – Nov 10, Patreon – “This mod fixes a bug with the new lot trait from Life & Death. Right now, when the lights flicker due to the lot trait, it causes all lights on the lot to reset to bright white. With this bug fix, your color/brightness settings should remain the same.” Bug report here.
- Chingyu (Vicky Sims) – Macabre Trait Socials Fix – Nov 12, Patr – “This mod fixes a bug that EA didn't put Macabre trait socials inside any social pie menu.”
- januksenkosketus – Social Butterfly Child Aspiration Fix – Nov 14, CF – “This mod fixes the Social Butterfly child aspiration goals "Become Friends with 3 other Children" and "Become Friends with 2 Adults". Now good friends and BFFs also count towards the goal (previously only friends counted).” - NOTE: pick one version
- TURBODRIVER – FixSocialBunnySimulationLag.ts4script – Nov 15, Sim File share – This mod addresses a lag cause. “It prevents Sims that are not on Social Bunny from getting registered for posting on Social Bunny and cleans up all the Sims that already got registered but don't use Social Bunny.”
- Bienchen (sims4me) – Dead Language Fix – Nov 16, CF (
not yet on own siteupl. to own site Dec 28) – mostly tweaks, but includes a fix for "where the social interactions that come with the macabre trait would not count towards the Lovestruck date social interactions" - onemorekayaker – Lovestruck - Romantic Satisfaction Decay Fix for Rotational Households – Nov 16, Nexus – "There is a bug where this decay also applies to non-active households, including rotational households and townies. This mod removes that decay." (NOTE: Requires login)
- simblrnova – Selvadorian Wood Railing FIX – Nov 17, Tumblr – “This railing has an issue where it doesn't take light or match the fence associated with it”
- MAL22 – Reaper Career Ambrosia Fix – Nov 19, itchio – "The Reaper career added in the Life & Death expansion pack made some changes to the tuning used by Ambrosia to prevent sims from eating the Grimbosia you sometimes make while at work. Unfortunately, the condition added to prevent this is flawed and prevents any sim in the career from eating Ambrosia. This mod fixes that issue and allows your soul collectors to eat Ambrosia.

Previously Broken
NOTE: This is a selected (NOT complete) list. Some modders have a note here to “presume all broken” based on a combination of how some mods are known broken and their inactivity. This list excludes many retired mods, many obsolete bugfixes, and many mods that have been long, long broken. However, it can be a helpful step and save many people from having to do a 50-50. The CC list is very selective.
