HVA ER NYTT?

We return to consoles with some big changes. We have been busy reviewing all the feedback you have been providing regarding the controls on the PlayStation and Xbox versions of The Sims 4, especially around the recent changes, and have made some important changes in this update.

First, based on your feedback, we have restored some previous functionality in Build Mode and made some additional improvements to bring consistency between game modes and what controller buttons do.

For example, in Create a Sim (CAS) the bumper buttons would switch between Sims, but in Live Mode you would have used the triggers as the bumpers would adjust the game speed. With this update, in Live Mode, switching between Sims will be handled by the bumper buttons to align with CAS, and the triggers will adjust the game speed.

Previously, tiles, doors, windows were rotated by pressing Triangle on PlayStation and Y button on Xbox. We have aligned these objects with other objects and they can now be rotated with the bumper buttons left AND right. Windows and Doors will use the Triangle or Y button to now place multiple, while Tiles will use the button to switch between single tile or full room modes.

There are some subtle differences, but we feel they reduce the overall complexity of playing The Sims 4 on a controller. We recommend that you enable Show Controls Legend (Game Options > Other) to get an idea of the new shortcuts and layouts. The Controls Overlay is always available by pressing L3 on PlayStation or L on Xbox if you prefer to play without the on screen prompts.

Next, while you are in Build Mode, when you select an object from the Lot, the Build Catalog panel will minimize returning screen space for you to navigate. You can also switch cursor modes, by tapping the Touch Pad on PlayStation or the View button on Xbox, while you are in the Build Catalog to select items from the Lot, and when you return to the catalog you will be presented with the last objects you were viewing, allowing you to pick up where you left off.

We have added a number of shortcuts throughout the game. One such shortcut can be found in Create a Sim whereby if you are editing your Sims’ appearance you can press UP on the D-pad to jump to the Identity panel. If you press DOWN on D-pad you will be able to quickly add or remove Sims from your household without needing to toggle cursor modes or navigate with the cursor in that part of the screen.

These updates look to give you the options you have told us you want, along with quicker navigation through the game – to do more with fewer button presses.

We will be continuing to review Answers HQ and look to continue to build on things with your feedback.

FEILRETTINGER:

Grunnspillet:

• When going through CAS Stories your Sim will now confirm that their aspirations and traits cannot be modified
• The tooltip on the Reset button for the UI Scale setting (Options > Game Options > Accessibility) will correctly reflect if you are using the game defaults or not
• Excessive jogging can be bad for you but for your Sims it shouldn’t mean they are stuck with Pulled Muscle and Fatigued uncomfortable buffs forever. The buffs will now expire over time…maybe next time stick to just a walk for once
• Sims will get age appropriate moodlets and buffs, but sometimes don’t we all get sad in a Strange Place?
  Benches sitLoveseat2x1_EP06GENbusBench_set1, sitSofa3x1_EP03GEN_set1, sitLoveseat2x1_EP03GENbusStop_set1, sitLoveseat2x1_GP06RUSTICbench_set1, and sitLoveseat2x1_EP04GENparkBench_set1 should now all appear as outdoor furniture and count towards Lot requirements like Parks
• There are additional body scar options for male Sims
• Mini Mission Crib, Kindermade Kindercrib, BlandCo Contemporary Crib, and The Travel Crib by Gordian now all include Energy Values when viewing them in the Build Mode catalog
• Erratic Want/Whim now shares the same image as the trait
• The ymTop_SDX016Rolled top is correctly categorized and will only show up when removing the Feminine filter tag
• The Gallery / Library button on the Main Menu will remain left aligned even if you take the game offline and then reconnect, just where it should be
• When starting a Scenario while Enable Guidance System is enabled (Options > Game Options > Tutorials & Tips) or started manually, Emily should no longer fight for screen time over the Scenario requirements in Create a Sim
• Building a relationship between Photographer and Model takes time… at least it should. It was noted that the relationship and reputation increased too rapidly while taking photos of or with another Sim.
• Family trees, by definition, keep growing. Now your Sims will be once again able to view their Grand and Great Grand lineages
• Toddlers can use the Babble interaction on large stuffed animal toys like Blarffy as much as they like and won’t need to wait hours between babbling
• shelfFloor2x1_EF13GENfauxFireplace_set1, fireplaceWall2x1_EP08EDWOOD_set1, fireplaceWall3x1_EP05HOLIDAYgarland_set1, fireplaceWall2x1_SP18GEN_set1, holidayTree_EP05GEN_set1, and lightFloor_EP05GENTree2x2x2_set1 all show the “Environment“ value in the tooltip

Konsoll:

• Improved legibility of the Controller Legend labels when viewing Notifications
• Disabling the Social Features in Game Options while viewing the Gallery should no longer force you to look at just the Game Options screen until you restart the game. Still, they are interesting Options
• Viewing the Venue Information from a Lot placed from My Library or the Gallery will not lock the controls to the UI elements
• Using the Move Lot option will not prevent you from rotating the Lot
• Disabling the Show Controls Legend setting in Options > Game Options > Other should hide the button icons and labels from the Gallery. If you need a reminder of what they are, click in the Left Stick to view the Controls Overlay
• The Controls Legend should no longer disappear after adjusting the UI Scale (Options > Game Options > Accessibility)
• Cursor will no longer disappear after using the Relationships panel
• Resizing objects in Build Mode is possible again. While holding the object you want to resize, press and hold L2+R2 (PlayStation) / LT+RT (Xbox) then press Left or Right on the D-Pad to adjust the size and place your giant, or tiny, object into the Lot when ready
• As part of the changes to Build Mode for the controller, the focus should no longer prevent switching between control types
• The Controls Overlay (L3 on PlayStation) / (L on Xbox) should be accurate at all times; we have gone through and removed excess or inaccurate button call outs to make the Overlay easier to read and understand

De fire årstider:

• Å installere utvidelsespakken «De fire årstider» og åpne opp en eksisterende lagringsfil, vil ikke lenger sette deg i et sesongvalgt mareritt når du prøver å kjøpe og åpne en virksomhet

Livet i tropene:

• ymAcc_NecklaceEP07BeadsTier_White kan nå tilpasses med et utvalg av fargealternativer

Snøparadis:

• Det er mye å lære i Snøparadis – 10 sider med leksjoner faktisk! Sidetallene skal ikke lenger være avskåret, slik at du mer effektivt kan fortsette med utdanningen din basert på fjellklatreutflukter
• Arbeidsnarkomane bør ikke brenne ut i samme takt som simmene uten samme livsstil. En utbrent arbeidsnarkoman er bare trist!

Hytteliv:

• Kjøp av frø på konsoller inkluderer nå tilleggsinformasjon om hvordan du fullfører kjøpet, uten å måtte se kontrolloversikten for å finne rett knapp

Tenåringsliv:

• Tenåringer som blir utvist fra videregående vil ikke lenger kunne melde seg på igjen
• ymAcc_NecklaceEP12Chain_SolidBlack har nå fått en rekke nye fargealternativer å velge mellom

Simmer i samspill:

• Simmer som har oppnådd milepæler vil ikke glemme dem hvis de flyttes inn i en husholdning som ikke spilles med.
• Simmene kan nå ha en vanskelig familiedynamikk med ektefellene sine. Hvem klemmer tannkremen fra midten forresten?!?!
• shelfFloor2x1_EF13GENfauxFireplace_set1 viser verdiene «Industrielt miljøavtrykk» og «Funksjonell utenfor systemet» i verktøytipset
• fireplaceFloor2x2_EP10GENstanding_set1 viser verdien «Funksjonell utenfor systemet» i verktøytipset
• Paranoide og pysete selvoppdagelsesøyeblikk bør være mer sjeldnere etter å ha avvist begge
• Frekvensen av selvoppdagelse har blitt redusert når en sim blir forfremmet

Stæsj til klesvaskedag:

• Vi har ringt inn til reparasjonsservice, og de kom innom og gjorde noen forbedringer på vaskemaskiner og tørketromler for å gjøre dem mer pålitelige

Karnevalmote-sett:

• Vi kunne rett og slett ikke få nok karnevall, men det var ikke helt meningen at ymAcc_NecklaceSP30Feathers_DuoPinkBlueDk skulle dukke opp to ganger i Simskaperen; Fra nå av skal den bare vises én gang. Det er uansett greit å holde feiringen i gang hele året
• Når vi snakker om det, ymAcc_NecklaceSP30Feathers_DuoPinkBlueDk skal nå ha alle tilgjengelige fargealternativer

Kjellerfunn-sett:

• Vi fant nøklene til sculptFloorInventory1x1_SP41GENchest, og den kan nå åpnes og brukes til å lagre alle skattene dine.
