Post by mockingbird288z »

Post any changes in the new update!

Changes
A bubble to finish the action will pop up when the profession actions are done but the animations are not complete
(With VIP) A second shift costs 15LP instead of 20LP
Can now choose to send a sim to work offsite even when 2 sims aren't already at work at the location
The icon for the movie studio is different
The workstation upgrade menus are different
Pop up for info on what the upgrades will do
Modeling hobby time has decreased to 2 hours and 15 minutes and a change in the animation at the end
Shield icon at the end of the leveling bar to show whether or not you've completed the badge requirement for that level
Slight changes to the Professions Training tutorial (can be done with the movie studio, no longer have to complete the work shift to complete the tutorial)
Free Park Bench in the home store, inaccessible to sims
Sims without specializations in their profession really won't level up beyond level 6 (unlike in police update)
Hobby actions for weekly tasks now get the reward and leveling xp
Preteens are no longer frozen when taking to toddlers
The green gem will now go to an occupied sim if you visit a lot with all occupied sims (instead of staying with the last idle sim at another lot)

Part of me really really wants to update. Another part of me really really wants to wait to see what's changed first. I don't know which part to follow.

Truthfully I'm only waiting to see what will happened to our sims that have already maxed out their movie star careers

I built all these old workplaces eons ago so I don't have any sim working at them (until the police update none of my sims had jobs). Yesterday and today I sent a sim to work at the movie studio. She got to level 2 and once I updated she was able to continue with the "new" actor profession at level 2.

You can use the video camera to increase the level you are on but you can't go to the next level until you get all the badges. Sad that they don't have something for the police profession

Now if the task finishes but the animation hasn't completed its cycle, a little bubble comes up that ends the animation early so you can then collect the rewards/select the next task instead of waiting for the animation to finish long after the task did...

I am so happy they added this. Now 3 minute tasks actually take only 3 minutes!

No tutorial this time.You can start right away. My sims kept their professional level 3.

New choice when sending a sim to work: Work Offside.

My 2 level 6 movie stars only got bumped back to level 5 99%, so they leveled up very quickly. Thing is, now that one sim finishes a shift, the other doesn't finish automatically. The second one has to help a visitor with 1 task to finish shift. That leaves partially-helped sims at the end of every shift, something that never happened with my cops. Is that the case with the cops now too?
