10/1/2014 Sims 4 - Patch Notes

Drat!  The grafting bug is still there so that means if you have to graft to get a death flower there is basically no death flower yet.  There goes my dream of trying a dynasty. (for the moment)

I asked Simgurudaniel about the grafting bug on twitter today. He said it was supposed to be fixed he said if it wasn't to let him know. I would suggest to possible clear out your cache files and see if the bugs still there. I watched them do it on the livestream so I know it worked when they did it.

FYI - after the patch, the only thing I can do is collect microscopic sample (which was greyed out before). Now water, weed, harvest, and harvest all are all greyed out. 

Anybody else have this?

I'm happy to say that if you've kept the urn of a deceased Sim, you can have their Ghost on your lot already with the patch! I'm glad I kept it, as i may get to do a guide to ghosts soon!

Unfortunately this didnt work for me in one of my games. I hope no one else is having the same problems.

Good relationship between the one who is asking, and the ghost is required. The option to invite is under friendly interactions

Has anyone managed to get grafting to work? I tried it in my game but didn't get to try clearing the cache or starting a new.game yet.

I'm at work so I can't check in game but SimsVIP have released a post saying it's all fixed and with the combo needed for death flower.

Not sure if that helps....

I didn't mean that the invite into household wasn't working, I meant that in one of my game files an old tombstone that still has a spirit attached (the option to release to netherworld is still there) have yet to show the ghost. Also, that person does not show up as deceased in the friendship panel - other sims who died but weren't in the household show up however. I think some tombstones/urns created before the patch could be bugged.

Grafting is working. For some reason, it didn't when I first loaded. It may have to do with them not fixing every order, as I went for the first I saw (take cutting from sage, graft to basil - still doesn't work). Other combos work just fine, and in either order.. so I just happened to pick the one thing that's evidently still broken But you can get parsley easily, and doing from basil to sage works fine. Got Death Flowers blooming for the plant list

@JustHappy2B: Have you ever considered a career as a writer? You are not only very clear and concise but very, very funny. I rarely find those qualities together.

Carl: grafting going well but need to look in your guide again to find deathflower. Do they work in The Sims 4 because they never worked for me in The Sims 3. I was always glad I had a saved game because with several deathflowers in inventory my sim would still always die. I even tried having the spouse give one of theirs and there was no response, just death.

You need to try some of TwistedMexicans mods. They are great!

Thanks... This was just a copy/paste of the official patch notes so the humor in it is that of our lovely Sim Developers (I Believe Sim Guru Lauren if I'm not mistaken)

It was very amusing - I think they may have slightly overdone the puns on the electrocution bug though... only slightly though.
