Dear all,

it appears that the latest EA patch (1.26 windows/1.27 Mac) may cause a large amount of custom content to no longer work as expected

At this moment it appears to be mainly affecting objects with slot resources in the package - tables, kitchens, sofas, cars etc.

We do not wish to be alarmist, but we recommend that you delay patching until the full extent of the impact is known. If you do wish to patch or play with Pets, we recommend that you backup your save files first and play with a new town, to avoid any problems caused by loading towns which already contain broken CC objects.

Installing the Pets Expansion will also install this patch.

We will keep you informed as we hear more.

Update: Creators, please see the full thread (click the news item title) for a fix.

So in other other words:
This breaks anything that uses a _RIG to create it. Any object that a sim interacts with... any object with an animation associated with it. Any one-frame animations (which are what poses are).

Can we assume that deco objects are not affected, since sims don't interact with them? Clothing, makeup, shoes, hairs... all that stuff is okay, since sims don't interact with them

For more information and a possible solution, go to this thread:http://modthesims.info/showthread.php?threadid=458126

Yeah I saw this too, I'm waiting with the patch to install, as I don't have the game yet and the (sliders)mods haven't been updated yet.

But all the 3rd party (so non EA) CC (furniture and stuff) which allow interactions don't seem to work with Pets / support interactions with Pets, which is kind of obvious as that CC wasn't made with Pet interactions in mind, however a cat likes to jump on a table every now an then ! Razz
Note: clothing CC and stuff shouldn't be affected by this.

There will probably be a mod / patch / update available soon, so the 3rd party CC will work with Pets as well (I hope) ;)

I ain't touching that patch. All this Pets hype, and for what? EA is worst than a triple chocolate cake. You know its bad for you, but you keep wanting more.

I wish I had seen this earlier. xD I received my preordered Pets today (fast, huh? xD) and I installed it, thus installing the patch. :/ I had to completely take out all of my hacks and stuff. I use aWT's slider hack, as well as NRaas's Woohooer and Master Controller. I had to immediately take out the slider hack (which was designed for patch 1.24, so that's no surprise), and I had to take out the NRaas stuff after it wouldn't load the towns or anything. And I think the UI skin mod made my skin tab thing go all wonky, so I had to take that out too. :/ Anyway, I think I might cry since I can't really use any sliders. xD

On a happier note, all this CC confusion inspired me to declutter and completely organize my mods folder. :D

Well you go Kai!! Finding the sun in the middle of a hurricane!!! Yep I read all that also and to tell you honestly...this seems to be the biggest of big fails that EA has done!!

It's so funny because I was just talking to a friend about possibly adding pets and then this happens. I don't even use the game launcher so no patches, updates or 'uckups will magically appear. I didn't download the patch before this current one out of fear.

This same friend said she downloaded pets last night and her game is all wonky now and she can't even have males in her game!!! I don't know, I'm sure there are a host of other problems that will soon be revealed.

Thank GOD for our modders!!!!!!!

Thanks for posting this Freedom!

Aw, I'm sorry about your friend's game! D: Having no males would be tragic. >__>

Also, my slider issue should be okay. xD Twallan already updated the Master Controller (as well as all the other mods) for patch 1.26, so I can use it to increase the slider amount. :] I'm excited, because now I won't have to put any creations on hold. ;D Probably, unless there are some other Pets issues I haven't come across yet. :/ Just figured I'd let you know, just in case anyone else uses the MC or any other NRaas mods. ^^

Comments : So a lady goes into a dentists office, gets on a chair and spreads her legs far apart.

The doctor is shocked to see this so he says: "Excuse me, miss, you must have the wrong place, this is a dentist's office."

The lady answers back: "Well, didn't you put my husband's dentures in last week?" the lady says.

The doctor nodded.

"Well," the lady said, "now you have to get them out."

I haven't had a problem with just object and misc building mods, though I did have to take out my sliders and and a few other mods before it would finally work.

And I'm still going to buy this game. So this means I have to update the poses, and the ones I am doing now. How to update is sort of confusing, but I will manage.

Last night, after spending 654134645341 hours (literally though, it was like four hours. xD) creating a new family, it wouldn't load. Like, it went to the screen where its like a photo of the family, and you can change the household name, go back to CAS, or continue on with the family. But it wouldn't even load the family photo up. :/ I'm going to try taking all of Twallan's mods out to see if it works. If it doesn't, then I might cry. ;~; I want to play so bad! xD

All core mods like Awesome mod, NRaas master controller and aWT slider hack should be updated to 1.26 WHEN you patch and IF you use any of these core mods. If you don't the game will probably crash or even the game won't start up.

Note: all these core mods (always) need updating whenever there's a new patch and you decide to patch your game.

I have saved all of my families. It took a lot of work to build them and I don't want to lose them.

I'm still scared to update. I'm bypassing the launcher for now.

I am not having any problems...I have the new awesome mod which auto updates now...you have to read the update area...place three files in your windows folder and place the rest in your downloads then now when you start the game you use the awesome mod to start it. It will auto check to be sure it runs compatible with your game and if not it will auto update without fail.

I also am not a custom object person seeing as i like making sims and do not know how to make objects that i had to decide what was more important to me CC objects or CC makeup,hair and such...so there was no choice in it for me. When I tried to have objects too even with my state of the art computer...it lagged so badly. So i am not having trouble with couches and counters and such. But I do hope this gets figured out soon for everyone. The reason the objects are messing up is EA had to recode for pets allowing pets on these items. So now everyone either has to not install pets or install and get rid of those objects and only be sure to place pets compatible objects in game. I honestly do not know how anyone will be able to be sure all their objects they have prior to pets is compatible. If your a download junkie like me there is no way to go to all the sites and nab a new version. If you want pets...and let me tell you its awesome...then you will just have to start over with objects.

One thing i will say is at least TSR is making sure their objects are compatible. I don't even know how some folks will be able to do it..its a mess...that is what it is....a pure mess.

I have to update now anyway because now that I do poses and I want to venture out to other stuff, I am going to have to update. So my job now for MTS is to report how poses work after updating and after fixing it with the tools both Grant Hess has, and TSR has. I'll be busy today.

I downloaded the Patch before I knew not to. I don't have Pets yet but have had to change out some of my CC to EA's (sofa and bed so far) to work correctly. Has anyone heard if EA will have a Patch coming out for this mess!! I saw TSR patch but I would rather wait for the patch if it's forthcoming soon!!

From MTS.

Quote :
OK, I tested extensively. The sliders ARE[B] working all of them I switch to Delphy's Height slider and placed one by one Jonhas' and they all work fine. The only problem is that if you have sims that were made before the patch the sliders are way off! You need to fine tune your sims again. Bloom BB slider also. It seems that for Pets they must have changed something on the way they made the bone assigment.
Thanks again to all of you hard workers for working so fast to give these problems a fix! If you are ever in Brazil I'll buy you a beer

Okay for those who need help or have problems with the patch and Pets, this is what I did for it to work for me:

I removed all files in the following folders and stored them somewhere else on my computer:
DCBackup
DCCache
IGACache
InstalledWorlds
Library
Mods/Packages
SavedSims
SigsCache
Thumbnails
WorldCaches

Also I removed and stored the following files somewhere eles on my computer:
CASPartCache.package
compositorCache.package
scriptCache.package
simCompositorCache.package
userPresets.package

After that I uninstalled the sims 3 base game and reinstalled it.
After that I ran the update / downloaded and installed the patch
After that I installed Pets.
Than I started up the game and it ran without a problem.
After that I put back the folders and files, back where they came from and did overwrite the files if needed.
I started up the game again, with all the mods and the CC and it ran okay. I only removed aWT slider hack mod and Anach CASSkins6x4 mod, but other than that I didn't do anything special.

I haven't checked all things in game yet, but the game loads without a problem and looks stable for now. I haven't had any problems yet.

I hope it works for you guys as well !!

I just ran the "TSR Pets CC Bug Fixer" and followed the clear instructions in the user guide / manual and it worked !! Smile) I did fix the files in DCCache and DCBackup.

I addition I ran the Bug fixer on my Mods/Packages folder and amongst others it picked up the poseplayer and it fixed several files in this folder as well, so including the poseplayer !!

After the fix, I went in game and test the furniture AND the poseplayer and ALL things seems to be working right now !! Yayyy !! Smile))

The TSR Pets CC Bug Fixer, can be found here (it's free to use !!)

I just copied the whole the sims 3 folder to my external hard drive... and followed the directions by TSR using there tool. I have not ran the game yet again. I ran it once after I installed the patch. It was fine. The hair and clothes, other CAS things were there.

Thanks Eva. I did this before your post though. lol

Since all the sliders (both EA and non EA) work in CAS after the new patch (in my game) without a hack, I don't use that many hacks anymore. I only use the (updated) NRaas master controller and the new MC Integration mod besides the poseplayer.
The poseplayer works after you fix it using the TSR patch and the (updated) NRaas Master controller you can find here and the Integration mod here

I have already beaten you too it. LOL. I think I have downloaded almost all of the updated one. I love story progression. That is my favorite. :D

I'm going to test right now. I have to 'reset everything' in my towns before I remove anything.

I was just wondering, if there is any alternative or update to the Anach non default skin mod? I can't scroll my skins anymore. or was there a manual way to do so all along? lol. sorry if this is a dumb question...

I think it's a good question !! Smile I have been looking and searching for the same thing but couldn't find an alternative (yet).
I have visited the site (for Ananch's CAS mod) and saw Anach was about to start working on updating the mod, so I hope it gets updated this week, or early next week.

yeah i read that too! it's just that I'm so new to all this extra modding. in fact i was only introduced to it because i needed it as part of a requirement for this pretty sim from MTS. nevertheless, thanks again for the prompt reply and for assuring me that I am not alone. this probably has to be the most buggy patch/expansion yet..

Hmm... just read some great news about this and tested it out and it works !!
Somehow you don't need Anach's CAS mod anymore with this patch 1.26, just click on the skin and the 6 different skintones you can choose become visible, NOW scroll with your mouse wheel and yep, you can scroll trough all the skintones you've installed !! As simple as that !! LOL Big smile Yayyy !! Brilliant ! dancing

how did u get it to do the dcbackup and dccashe...I am thinking its not doing mine because all i have in there is sims content from the store..i dont have any CC from sites in there. It keeps saying it is skipping over what i have. I would think the store content is fine due to the fact its coming straight from EA...if the creators at EA didn't fix things for pets then shame on them as far as their store content.

Well i finally got it to fix what it can but it did give me a message that 311 files were unusable in my dcbackup and were skipped but 11 were fixed...I imagine that the files its talking about are mostly clothing and such cuz that is what most of it is. I only have a few objects from the sims store.

The tool automatically checks the folder(s) with all it's content and only selects the files needed for fixing (for Pets). I also got sort of the same message that some files were skipped, probably clothing stuff or something like that, I don't think it's a problem ;)

I still run the tool one time a day for now, as not all the CC downloaded is "Pets compatible" yet (unless I only download clothing and stuff).
