Sims 4 Patch 177.131 (2021-07-20) Note

"Broken" meaning dig piles no longer deliver dirt clumps, and dirt clumps no longer deliver artifacts.I already installed the patch and extracted the new game tuning, and I can see what changed. As soon as I wrap an empty <U> tag to around...
Archaeology Kit News
I have some minor updates ready for the Archaeology Kit, but I'm going to wait until after the Cottage Living patch is released in case anything breaks (which is kind of unlikely, since they won't be modifying Archaeology in it, but who knows).No major additions planned for this update yet, just some bug fixes ...
