The Sims™ 2 Legacy Patch Notes #4

Sul Sul, Simmers!

We’ve loved seeing all the creative builds and memorable moments you're enjoying in these legacy titles! We’re continuing to address the major issues you've been reporting via the official EA Forums.

• The Sims Team

For the most current patch updates, please visit The Sims Game Info Hub here.

February 12, 2025 patch notes are viewable here. February 6, 2025 patch notes are viewable here. February 4, 2025 patch notes are viewable here.

Fixed Issues:

• General Stability improvements

• In some situations, the game would show an error indicating “too many iterations”

• Modular staircases could not be deleted and could be a source of infinite money

• The dog Sim is missing from the household after moving to a lot

• The Design Tool palette chooser pop-up could go off screen and not be able to be dismissed or interacted with

• Music tracks by Depeche Mode and Natasha Bedingfield have been restored

• The mouse pointer, Sim names, and Info Panel tooltips in build/buy were sometimes not properly aligned

• Beach lots could sometimes have incorrect terrain paint

General notes:

• In some cases, issues that have now been addressed might have corrupted game saves from before they were addressed (e.g. when Sims could disappear, Sims can’t eat cooked food, etc). In these cases, please try starting a fresh save as the game won’t be able to correct the corruption, and working with corrupted saves may lead to unexpected behavior.

• While the Alien Abduction scene now works, the scene is still missing the alien baby. We’ll continue working on that. In the meantime, you will have the alien baby in the game once the scene is done.

• Some players have tried using Windows shortcut keys to move the full-screen game to another monitor. When in full-screen mode, the game should not be moved to another monitor or this may cause issues.

There may be issues not listed here that are in the process of being addressed as certain issues require an extended investigation on our end. Even though these fixes may be in active review, it’s not a guarantee that we’ll have an immediate fix for it in an upcoming patch.

Please continue to share and report any issues on our forums, and join our official Discord community for tips, tricks, and news!
