Our sims got new animations when watching tv. E.g. laugh, taking a hand to the mouth, nap away.
If they sit sideways they now look into the correct direction.

A member of the German forum posted about an unknown action at the Modern Grey L Shape Lounge. I think it's an online store only item, but sometimes available at architect homes. Both of us don't know if this action has been there all the time. Maybe someone else did use this object more often and knows?

Loving the deals tab, the few days I have had it, got an good looking outfit I think looks Gothic (I love all forms of the goth look cause I do). Some furniture that I did not think I could yet ect....

Though it means my sims are grinding more then they likely should be, hard to earn the cash when they are always grinding for LP lol.

Dishwashers placed from the inventory
- can be moved right after placing
- can be put back into inventory right away.
- are ready for use without need to recharge.

They can also be moved to another place in the house while they are washing the dishes. It's not possible to take them into inventory while they are busy.

Yep I did, went and got 10 woodworking benches for when it starts. Guessing its gonna happen after the pug event or a few days after.

I find it extremely odd as it wasn't advertised as being in the schedule for this update.... What about the Aerobics hobby that was supposed to start around the 15th/16th? One must presume that it has been replaced UNLESS we get both at the same time... and for players like me who hasn't got everything this game has offered us yet, that's gonna be a difficult task. Surely FM wouldn't be that brutal considering this update's been torrid enough...

(I mean, I'm not arguing as I realllllly needed this hobby event to come back anyway, but still find it weird...)

ya I got ready for the other hobby event as well, but this should end if it starts this time tonight with barely any overlap. But knowing them they went lest add this they might like it and adjusted the dates and did not tell anyone. The schedule is open to change. Glad I maxed out my woodwwrking hobby when I started looking things up, that took for ever... now the grid is ready to go.

One time in the past, the pop up was for the wrong event due to an error by the Fire Monkeys. We'll just have to wait and see.

It only states that it is coming soon. If we are getting this event, it shouldn't start until maybe this weekend.

I would prefer this event to the aerobics one as I don't have the urban furniture. It has been a long time since it was repeated too. I think I have the aerobics stuff, but there is so much of it, it is hard to be sure.
