HOT FIX

The Highlights

✨ Important Hot Fix Highlights:

  • 🛠️ Child Sims are back to looking adorable instead of… stretchy nightmares. (We can all sleep again.)

  • 🎮 Console players — you can now scroll through tattoos and open filter panels smoothly with your controller!

  • 🚪 Unit outlines in Build Mode will now only show for players who actually own Businesses & Hobbies. No more random outlines haunting your builds.

  • 🐾 Small dog breeds no longer appear distorted in CAS — your pups are back to looking cute, not creepy.

💾 How It Affects Gameplay:

  • Mods and CC users, tread lightly — even small hotfixes can cause surprise breakage! Always patch with care, back up your saves, and double-check your mods before hopping back in.
