Just a few short days after the release of the big July Patch, EA is back with another Sims 4 Update. This time fixing critical Bugs and Issues that came with July 23rd, 2024 Update which broke several features across Base Game and previous pack releases. Including mean Sims, broken user interface and the return of incestious autonomy between Sims through Neighborhood Stories.
Unfortunately for players, most the game bugs mentioned above haven’t been fixed with this patch. The only feature that got fixed are the Parenthood Character Values menu in the Simology panel. For game fixes beyond that you’ll have to wait a few more days…
What exactly has been fixed in this week’s 3rd patch rolled out? Find out in the official Sims 4 Patch notes below!

Simmers,
Today, we are releasing a quick fix for an issue affecting players who have updated to themost recent patchand have The Sims 4 Parenthood Game Pack installed. The fix is live for PC and Mac. PlayStation and Xbox will follow shortly.
As always, if you have any issues, please share with us onAnswersHQ. This remains our primary source for information to learn and troubleshoot player experiences.
Bug Fixes
Parenthood
Some players who use Mods have reported that the issue has persisted in their game. Which is most likely due to an outdated version of the UI Cheats Extension Mod. Make sure you grab the latest version of this Mod to ensure you get rid of this issue completely!
As noted in the official Patch Notes, the update has only fixed one bux amongst many reported by the players. We should expect fixes for other reported glitches hopefully soon in the coming days.
Statement from EA
Following this release, we’ve prioritized investigating issues with neighborhood stories & overly mean Sims to provide a resolution as soon as possible.
We know how frustrating game bugs can be, so we appreciate your patience during this time. We’ll continue to keep you posted on updates as we work towards a resolution.
If you’re experiencing the following issues, please provide save files and “me-too” the appropriate AHQ threads:
- For Overly Mean Sims
- For Neighborhood Stories
