The Sims 4: For Rent December 14 Hotfix Patch Notes

Today’s update for The Sims 4: For Rent focuses on four major bug fixes focusing on build mode, the FreeRealEstate cheat command, and tweaks to property pricing mechanics.

Below are the patch notes for The Sims 4: For Rent’s hotfix, released on December 14, 2023.

Bug Fixes

For Rent

  • Mellowing out Build Mode: Drawing, deleting, and auto-filling wallpaper in Residential Rentals will stop causing Build Mode slowdown.
  • Mellowing out Evil Landlords: Taka Soi premade lot rents won’t get into the Billions and force you to stay. Let’s keep it civil. Any incorrect price UI in existing saves should quickly update to normal by the next bills cycle.
  • Mellowing out water usage: Sims will no longer obsessively excessively autonomously shower when hygiene is not low. Like, you’re clean already, Sim. Stop.
  • FreeRealEstate On cheat will now turn on again: Cheaters can happily mellow out once more.

That’s it for the The Sims 4: For Rent patch notes! Although it is a short list, these changes help make building easier, balance pricing for premade rental lots so you don’t lose billions as a tenant, and improve water usage mechanics so you don’t see Sims showering constantly. The FreeRealEstate cheat was also patched, allowing you to use it again to make housing more affordable.
