Upcoming Patch Infos:
Probably on Tuesday will be a new Patch released. Chances are high that a lot of mods will be affected by it. As always you have three Options:
1) Don’t Patch until your must have Mods are updated or confirmed to be compatible
2) Patch and play without Mods/CC until your must have Mods are updated or confirmed to be compatible
3) Patch and play with all your Mods/CC without checking for updates etc. on your own risk (not recommended)
A friendly reminder:
Support Questions via Discord only please! Tumblr and/or Twitter are not good places to ask for support. Discord is much easier for me, since i often need more Infos like Screenshots etc. to be able to help.
Mod Updates
As always delete all old Files and your localthumbcache.package when updating mods!
+ Moved all Phone Foster Family Interaction to a new Phone Category now.
+ Added new “Foster Family Settings” to the Foster Family Menu. There you can choose which Foster Kids/Pets you want to foster. Toddler, Children, Teens & Cats or Dogs (Kitten/Puppy, Adult or Elder). You can choose one or mulitple. Added a “Clear all Foster Family Settings” Option as well. If you want to go back to default (All Ages and/or All Pets) or want to change your Settings you need to clear them all first. Settings work only for Sims who are registered to the Foster Family System.
+ Foster Kids/Pets Autonomy changed to on lot only so they will hopefully not roam around the neighborhood on their own. Except Cats with the Aloof, Free Spirit or Prowler Trait, they will still roam around the neighborhood unless locked in.
+ Sims will only get a sad Buff when they have a certain Trait: Dog Lover/Animal Affection Sims when a Foster Dog moves out. Cat Lover/Animal Affection Sims when a Foster Cat moves out. Family Oriented Sims when i Foster Kid moves out. Sad Buff now has a Mood Weight of Sad +1 and the Duration is lowered to 12hrs. All other Sims will get a neutral Buff with a Duration of 2 hrs.
+ Notifications when Sims come back with a new Foster Kid/Pet now have the Pic of the Sim so you can click on it to get to the Sim faster.
+ When a Foster Kid/Pet aged up you’ll get a Notification now, so you won’t miss their recent Brithday.
