Patch 1.222.218 - All Clear!

UPDATE:
The Sims 4 patch released 23rd of March 2026 did not break any of my mods either. This was a minor patch to fix the remaining bugs and issues left over from the last two patches.


Post from 18th of March 2026:
Maxis released a new hotfix patch today, 1.122.212, which fixed the issues that were impacting CC and mods.

I’ve tested everything, and none of my mods are affected. You are good to keep playing as normal.

Thanks for your patience during this one ✌️

Hey one of my sims suddenly stopped getting moodlets after smoking a blunt. Any idea what causes this? It worked a few days ago and I have not downloaded any mods recently. Any help is appreciated thank you

Is it possible to get a dispensary license with a small business instead of a retail business?

My game won't open with the latest download, is there another one?

B
Basemental · March 23, 2026

It has nothing to do with the latest download of the mod, it is still some buggy behavior from Maxis' side of things apparently. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an universal fix for this, but a few things you can try which has been working for some people: First try restarting the app, if that doesn't work, then try a game repair. If that doesn't work, try temporarily removing any custom lashes you may have. And finally someone said clearing the game cache worked for them. Good luck!

When will this update be available for download?

Basemental · March 22, 2026

This was merely an announcement that the game patch released by Maxis did not break my mods. Not an announcement about an upcoming update available for download

Thanks for banning me from discord for trying to fix my mod problem.

B
Basemental · March 19, 2026

As far as I can tell from looking at the Discord conversation you were banned for being rude and agitated towards people actually trying to help you. And looking at older logs it’s not like it’s the first time.

Lashey Horton · March 19, 2026

thank you for your work !!!!!!

To be clear, does your mod work with today's (patch after yesterday's patch) update?

B
Basemental · March 18, 2026

Yes

what does a hotflix patch mean?

B
Basemental · March 18, 2026

A hotfix patch is basically a quick fix that gets pushed out to solve a specific problem right away. It’s not part of the usual update schedule, just something the developers rush out when something important breaks or needs fixing fast, so people can get back to normal without waiting for a full update.

OK now I need to know... What is the deal with the market? Are they going to allow independant creators like you to still create outside the market?

B
Basemental · March 18, 2026

The Marketplace is a marketplace for official Makers pack and kits, according to the posts they made about this, it won't change in terms of creators still offering paid early access and free mods elsewhere.

Every time I get my mods n cc working, they go n mess with the game n make it all not work😒😤

CaineDidNothingWrong · March 18, 2026

Soooo..................... just when they released paid mods, suddenly a "bug" has broken all free CC and mods. Curious.

B
Basemental · March 18, 2026

I am not subscribing to these tinfoil hat theories. It is not the first time a patch has broken CC and mods and a fix is being worked on.

And of course my game will not allow me to play it offline.

wyrdesme · March 18, 2026

I think it has something to do with new Marketplace
