This patch is to fix most of the stuff that was broken in 1.42 (the last patch).   Just so you know.

I just guessed at the number, figured it was 1.46.  My bad.  I've been wanting to update the Store patch, but can't do it since I have to do that last game play patch in order to get to it.   :-\

Sigh. As of yesterday I am having issues with my game crashing upon saving, so I'm frustrated anyway. Off to the technical help boards to see if I can get this fixed before I patch up.

new patch 1.47??? anyone know anything about it
« Reply #18 on: January 09, 2013, 08:49:07 AM »
When I went to play sims last night it popped up that there was a new patch.  Number 1.47 don't remember the other numbers.
From what I could read, all it was fixing was the marriage problem and something to do with the telescope.

Anyone have any info on it?  I can't believe that they didn't do something about the relationship glitch.  Or the gardening problem.

What was the relationship glitch and the gardening problem?  ??? There are so many glitches, crashes, work around solutions that I'm losing track.

The relationship glitch is due to, from what I know, the online dating setup.  What is happening, at least in my games, is that every time my sims meet someone, whether friend or foe, they start getting letters; friendship, love ones, but can be mean ones, and gifts in the mail. Along with phone calls for dates and popups asking for friendship or declarations of love.  The problem with the gifts is that the omini (sp?) plant is being sent along with bills yet they can not be deleted.
The longer time goes by, it seems the more you get.  Have a large family, six adults and a child, and that is a lot of letters, phone calls and royal pain in the neck.
You can delete yourself from the profile, go in and create one, then delete it, but it doesn't help, when you meet them again, the letters, gifts, popups and phone calls start backup.

In the garden, those who had any gardens planted before patch 1.46, after the patch they can no longer go and click onto weed, harvest garden and off they go to weed, harvest the whole garden.  Now, they go and do what they are told to do and then stop, stand there, head off to read a book or something else. 
If you are a gardener, then you now have to watch your sim harvest or weed a plant, then tell the sim to go to the next plant, then to the next plant and on and on. I'm trapped staying at my sim's side until they have harvested or weeded the garden. 
There is no collection page in the journal for plants, so if you are seeking to fill that up it can't be done. 

Any game made after the patch is okay, and children born from families who are affected by the patch can do the gardening, so that is of some help.

So the "tend garden" option is broken, lovely.  I have just about every Sim household garden too.  Guess I won't be patching.  *sigh*  :-\  :P

Thanks for explaining/replying Janna.

Gardening has been broken since the patch for Supernatural - any game you've started since that patch, you should be okay.

Speaking of which, are the fixes fixed for existing games, or only for fresh ones? I patched last night and didn't notice any new problems, but I didn't try to do any of the things that were supposed to be affected.

Hum... ::)  Now I can't remember if the game I was playing was after the SN patch.  I feel like I'm standing on the high dive platform...should I jump (patch)?  LOL  I haven't played in a really long time, so hard to tell.

...and one more caveat to the gardening thing: harvesting is still broken in World Adventures towns even on a game where gardening otherwise works. You can harvest one plant at a time on community lots, but in order to harvest on a vacation home lot where you've planted a garden, the person doing the harvesting can't have ever collected anything (no rocks, no gems, no bugs, no gardening skill, no nothin') in their home town. The problem seems to come from initializing the collection journal.

Yes, I have. That seems to be the entire problem. Thanks for the comments on how to fix the problem on my thread in Technical Issues. I'm off to try them now.

One more question I thought of--is there a mod out there that fixes the relationship/mail glitch?  I'm so tempted to patch and play, but I'm afraid if I patch I won't be able to continue on with my saved games because they will be ruined.   :-\

[Overwatch] corrects the gifting problem outright : http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Overwatch

It also stops the love letter error from busting the "Get Mail" interaction, however you will still receive invalid objects when that happens.
