The Sims 4 Update 1.87 Patch Notes, Wiki, Gameplay and more

The Sims 4

The Sims 4 is a free-to-play social simulation game. Developed by Maxis and published by Electronic Arts, it is the fourth main game in The Sims series. The game was released for Windows in 2014 and later for OS X, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. As of October 18, 2022, the game is free to play and offers paid downloadable content packs.

Like its predecessor, The Sims 4 allows you to create and dress up characters called “Sims”, build houses, and simulate their lives. The game features a new customization engine, better character and house tools, and improved Sims’ mood and personality simulation.

The game was originally planned as an online multiplayer game, but shifted to a single-player experience after the poor performance of Maxis’ SimCity in 2013. The Sims 4 was criticized for its lack of features and received mixed reviews.

Despite this, the game has become a commercial success, becoming the most popular game in the series, with over 70 million players worldwide as of 2023. The game continues to receive support from paid downloadable content packs and free updates that introduce new features. The latest expansion pack, The Sims 4: For Rent, was released on December 7, 2023. Additionally, a new mainline The Sims game, codenamed “Project Rene”, is currently in development.

The Sims 4 Update 1.87 Patch Notes

Bug fixes

The Sims 4

  • Sims should now indicate if something is preventing them from finishing cooking their meal.
  • Reward traits earned through the Rewards Store will no longer allow for multiple purchases.
  • Some scene tooltips have been updated to be clearer.
  • The “Stab a Friend in the Back” sentiment text has been updated with clearer grammar.
  • Critical fix for modders: mods would sometimes call TunableFactory at runtime after tunings were loaded. This would result in a None object exception, since everything is expected to happen during the initial tuning load, and tunings are not expected to be created dynamically at runtime (except for tuning reloads, in which case we disable optimizations entirely if allowed). This change is to have the *register_for_cleanup methods do nothing after cleanup is complete. If this happens after tunings are loaded, the created tunable factory and tuning objects will be garbage collected naturally after they are no longer referenced and needed.

comfort

  • Wall tile placement type can once again be switched on controllers.
  • Addressed an Xbox crashing issue by improving stability.

rent

  • Rental Income: Added additional information to several relevant UI screens to more clearly communicate how rent for all owned units and any taxes or bills due are collected on weekends.
  • Save Bug Fixes: 403:8e5010b7 – Several combined fixes aimed at resolving the current save and preventing this error from occurring on future saves. Fixed references in the Business Manager to areas that no longer existed in the game data; this was triggering a save failure exception when trying to save a previous residential rental lot.
  • Nasi Lemak has a more accurate model to represent this delicious dish and the previous visual dish has been added as a new recipe Coconut Rice.

How to Play The Sims 4

The Sims 4 is a simulation game in which players guide virtual characters (called “Sims”) through their lives. Unlike games with specific objectives, players make choices in an interactive world. Players can take care of Sims’ needs, such as hunger, hygiene, and socialization. Sims use Simoleons (the game’s currency) and speak Simlish (a fictional language).

They have jobs, earn money, and develop skills. The game offers optional objectives based on the Sims’ desires and personal goals. There are cheats and downloadable content (DLC) packs for adding features, objects, and game options. The game supports custom mods, including changes to gameplay or decorative items such as hairstyles and furniture.
