https://twitter.com/SimGuruKate/status/1037466453895655424 Hi,
I have a little question, i have game version 1.44.83. I want to update patch 1.46, but i am afraid that i become issues. I always (most) play my game offline.
Can i expect issues when i saves my self build houses and selfmade sims and maybe problems when i will placed own houses/lots and own sims?
I am looking all internet, but i can not found information of that after the Maintenance. Can anyone guarantee that there are no problems anymore with gallery or my library?
Thank you very much, i hope on a reaction.
We cannot guarantee there won't be problems. There's a lot of factors that come into play.
If you haven't updated to the current game patch - PC 1.46.18.1020, you might try backing up the Sims 4 folder to your desktop or a USB drive for safe keeping, then try updating.
When I do updates, I backup my Sims 4 folder, delete the current one. Launch the game to create a new Sims 4 folder and then copy over these files and folders, checking all mods and custom content to make sure they're up to date with the current patch. As outdated mods/cc can cause a lot of issues.
- Options.ini (User game settings)
- Tray Folder (Sims/Houses/Commercial lots and rooms)
- Screenshots/Videos/Custom music
- Saves Folder
(leave out slot_00000001.save which is the autosave. It is not used anymore.)
- Custom content like clothing, hair, skins, and makeup
- Mods (Put these back one by one to make sure they all still work)- AB_928Z,
Yes i always make a backup of the Sims 4 folder. But when i do the patchupdate 1.46.18.1020 and it goes wrong, i can not back, because the update 1.46. I can not back to gameversion 1.44.83.
Thanks for your reaction and sorry for my bad english.
I have also a answer from an EA community Manager in my own language. He says the Gallery now works as it should.
