Cannot place content because it was created with a newer version

desperately seeking the 1.82.99.1030 patch .. I think that's the one I want . (last D L C is cottage living ) I am a mod user and one unfortunately ruined my game BUT after i fixed it . I am receiving the dreaded cannot place content because created with a newer version of the game...

I tried to find the old patch for download to no avail.  

This is forum is my last desperate attempt . I was using the sims to make an art film but now I've lost access to all my characters and sets . Sadly I cannot continue . this may be my last day as a simmer.

if nobody can send me the patch or help me resolve this.

I would maby hope to return after Maxis is done ruining the game and does its last patch then leaves it in the more capable hands of the modding community .

That's all for now  Sincerely , Disgruntled Simmer

    @ysm1xxmgz23p 

    There have never been a stand alone patch so you will not find such an old patch. The current patch level is 1.91.x.x.

  • ?? !!

    I think we are having a miscommunication . I am asking for an older patch file. I don't believe EA would not save these ..

    I want my Mods to work ! I would prefer them to the Patched version I currently have because my Sims and Lots are no longer working.  my game is broken beyond repair because I am on a wrong patch.

    i THINK the patch I was using was 1.82.99.1030

    and again I would find it very hard to believe EA doesn't have these somewhere.  if anybody can help , Cheers

    I don't want to have to wait until EA is done tampering with the game to play it again. I can't risk losing all that time and data to a patch again  .

    I just think the mods are better .  I would rather the patches not disturb them .

    I don't know if you work for Sims 4 or not. But if anybody who does reads this please allow us to refuse new , or reinstall old patches to keep our game functional .

    Hi @ysm1xxmgz23p,

    There is not a way to revert your game to a previous patch version- you'd need to be on the newest patch version or you'll run into errors like the one you're currently seeing. 

  • flat out, No !

    the errors I am seeing are BECAUSE the patch !!  I guess this is me done playing .

    Frustrating !

    the new patch ruined my game and I can no longer play it .

    Hopefully this is the LAST patch and expansion .. As I don't want to go through this again . I know I am not the only person with this issue. I hope they follow me out to sooner wait for a patch free version of the game .
