- Um, wasn’t this supposed to be a group activity? When doing Group Cooking, all Sims will now participate.
- Gallery Server
- We have been continually reviewing your Gallery profanity reports, which can be submitted through the The Sims 4 Gallery Profanity Filter Feedback survey, and we have been updating the ruleset to allow Simmer freedom while keeping others safe. A couple of highlights include:
- Reducing the strictness of how hashtags were handled when listed in specific orders
- Maxis-created Sims, even from past Sims games, should no longer be prevented from uploading if you choose to recreate one or more
- Eco Lifestyle

- For Rent
- In this economy?! The maximum available rent value will no longer lower after evicting a tenant during a grace period in 11C Sungai Point.
- Yikes. Now, this is going to require an audit! Landlords who own a Residential Rental Lot and own a business will no longer have fund transfer issues. Transfers from the business to the household will no longer fail, and money will no longer duplicate household funds when transferring to a business.
- Crystal Creations
- The shawl sweater from Crystal Creations is now visible when selecting a “Fashion Choice†in CAS filters. Please be advised that wearing this shawl did not grant the power of invisibility.

- Update v1.105.345.1020:
- Bug Fixes
- The Sims 4
- Updated some performance optimizations that had caused certain moodlets to inadvertently be removed from Sims on load.
- Fixed a crash that would occur if a tooltip was triggered when in the hover state on objects within a Sim’s inventory.
- Fixed an issue with object picker UI menus that - when certain conditions were met - would interfere with Sims’ ability to run various “Give†interactions (interactions where objects would be given to other Sims).
- Once learned, the WooHoo Interests of other Sims will once again be displayed accurately in that Sims’ Profile Panel.
- For Rent
- You should once again be able to successfully open the Profile Panel of another Sim after Eavesdropping on them and see any secrets that were learned about them.
- Crystal Creations
- Corrected an issue where Sims’ bodies would gradually change in size each time a Sim put on or took off crafted jewelry. This issue primarily affected Teens, Adults, and Elders. There was minimal impact to Young Adults.
- While this issue will no longer occur, this update does not retroactively fix the appearance of Sims who had already been altered. There are two methods we can suggest for manually restoring your Sims:
- You can restore an older save file that was saved prior to any crafted jewelry being worn by your Sims.
- On PC/Mac, please visit our video guide or text guide for instructions on restoring older save files.
- On PlayStation/Xbox, select “Load Game†from the main menu, and choose an older save file.
- You can take your Sim into CAS by using the “Change Sim†interaction on a Mirror or Dresser object, and then manipulate your Sim’s body to reasonably approximate their prior appearance.
- For players with The Sims 4 Get to Work, crafted jewelry can now be sold at Retail businesses without being returned to the business owner Sims’ inventory when traveling away from the Retail lot.
- If a Sim dies while wearing crafted jewelry, that jewelry will now be disassociated with the now-dead Sim when the jewelry is returned to the household’s inventory.
- Updated some combinations of crafting jewelry that were resulting in a gemstone color that did not match the crystal that was selected when crafting.
- Update v1.105.332.1020:
- Bug Fixes
- The Sims 4
- Addressed an issue where Sims that had achieved certain skill levels and had unlocked or crafted specific recipes, or had written music, were then unable to select interactions on themselves, on other Sims, and on certain objects.
- Fixed the cart button to correct an issue that was causing it to animate for longer and more frequently than intended.
- Update v1.105.297.1030:
- Bug Fixes
- The Sims 4
- Sims should now indicate if there is something in the way that prevents them from finishing cooking a meal.
- Reward traits obtained through the Rewards Store will no longer be allowed to be purchased multiple times.
- Some Scenario tool tips have been updated for clarity.
- The Stabbed a Friend in the Back moodlet text has been updated for grammar clarity.
- Critical fix for mod creators: Mods will sometimes invoke TunableFactory at runtime after tuning load. This causes a None object exceptio*n since the expectation was everything happened during the initial tuning load, and it was not expected that dynamically creating tuning at runtime was a thing (outside of tuning reload, in which case we disable the optimization entirely if that is allowed). This change is to make *register_for_cleanup method do nothing after cleanup has already happened. If this is happening after tuning load, the created tunable factory and tuned object will be garbage collected naturally after it is no longer referenced and needed.
- Console
- Toggling wall tile placement types is once again possible on controllers.
- Addressed a crash on Xbox with stability improvements.
- Gallery Server
- Reported comments should no longer reappear after restarting The Sims 4 client.

- For Rent
- Rental Incomes: Additional information has been added on several relevant UI screens to more clearly communicate how Rent for all owned units will be collected by the end of the week along with any taxes or bills due.
- Fixes for Save Error : 403:8e5010b7 – Some combined fixes aim to resolve current saves and prevent this error from happening on future saves. Fixed references to zones in business manager that no longer exist in the game data; which triggered the failure to save exception when attempting to save on what previously was a residential rental lot.
- Nasi Lemak has a more accurate model to represent this delicious dish & the previous visual dish has been added as the new recipe Coconut Rice.

- Bug Fixes
- Base Game
- The Base Game’s loading screen tip about making cupcakes has been updated to reflect our recently Freed Cupcakes!
- We all know how eager the Landgraabs are for a bit of dough, but after a productive conference with The Landgraab Power Company, we are pleased to share that power will no longer be shut off early if a bill is not paid within the first 48 hours.
- Artists and Authors fear not! Masterpiece Paintings and Best-Selling Books will no longer change to “Excellent Quality†after saving and reloading. Phew!
- To prevent confusion, we’ve updated some error text to mention EA app instead of Origin if you are playing The Sims 4 through the EA app.

- Mellowing out Evil Landlords:Taka Soi premade lot rents won’t get into the Billions and force you to stay. Let’s keep it civil. Any incorrect price UI in existing saves should quickly update to normal by the next bills cycle.
- Mellowing out water usage: Sims will no longer obsessively excessively autonomously shower when hygiene is not low. Like, you’re clean already, Sim. Stop.
- FreeRealEstate On cheat will now turn on again: Cheaters can happily mellow out once more.
