There’s a new Sims 4 PC update available via Origin. If you have auto updates enabled in “Application Settings”, the game will auto-update once you open Origin. If you have auto-updates disabled, you will need to manually update by clicking the game in your library.
To ensure your game is up to date, check the game version found in Documents > EA > The Sims 4 > GameVersion.txt. Your game should now read: PC 1.51.77.1020 / Mac 1.51.77.1220. If you’ve updated but it’s not showing the correct version, delete the GameVersion.txt file, restart, and all will be corrected.
❗ Remove all MODS and Custom Content before updating your game ❗ UPDATE: 4/19/19 – PC 1.51.77.1020 / Mac 1.51.77.1220
Hi Simmers,
We wanted to swiftly address some unintentional issues that popped up following the 4/16 game update.
- Fixed an issue where custom text was not always displaying properly in-game.
- Fixed an issue where NPC invites to festivals or to residences were sending Sims to an incorrect destination.
- There is still a lingering issue regarding invites to events in Get Famous, such as the talent showcase, and celebrity sightings. We are continuing to investigate those for a future update.
- Fixed an issue where Mac players on certain older versions of OS X were unable to launch the game. As a result, we rolled back a fix that was done for Mac players on 64-bit systems that eliminated a false error message which said, “The Sims 4 is not optimized for your Mac and needs to be updated.”
