Vortex Gaming

· The Sims 4 emergency hotfix update for May 21st has been applied.
· This update fixes bugs related to Create-a-Sim navigation, Build Mode functionality, Gallery uploads, and console scrolling.
· Specifically, the timeout error that occurred during Gallery uploads has been resolved.
· We are aware of and working on fixes for the Gallery unresponsiveness issues on PlayStation and Xbox.

· This update is based on reports and feedback received since May 12th.
· Key fixes include:

Category	Details
Create-a-Sim	Fixed an issue where opening and closing categories did not immediately return to the currently equipped outfit. It's now easier to see which pack an outfit belongs to.
Build Mode	Confirmed that the function to navigate to the corresponding item in the Build Catalog list when using the icon tool is now working correctly.
Gallery Upload	Resolved the issue of timeout errors occurring during uploads.
Console (Controller)	Fixed an issue where scrolling did not work correctly when changing categories in Create-a-Sim.

· Some issues remain unresolved (e.g., bugs related to Cats & Dogs), and work is ongoing to fix them.

· For PC users experiencing issues after the update, it's recommended to follow the suggested troubleshooting steps after updating the game.
· Mods and Custom Content (CC) were not disabled in this update.
· Mod users must check for the latest updates and confirm that mod creators have completed their updates or that their mods are compatible with the current update.
· Mod compatibility information can be found on Luth's forum posts or on individual mod creators' Discord channels.

· Mods and Custom Content usually get disabled automatically with most updates, but this was not the case with the May 21st update.
· Clear confirmation is needed that mod creators support the update or that the mod is compatible with it.
· Luth's mod tracking post is useful for understanding the status of major mods (Core, Injector, Testing, Production).
· This information is as of May 15th, with no changes since then.
· Applying the update is a personal choice, but if you applied the May 12th update, it's recommended to also apply this hotfix.

· Since mods and Custom Content (CC) were not automatically disabled after the update, users must check compatibility themselves.
· You need to verify if mod creators have explicitly stated their mods are compatible with the update or if they have completed an update.
· Mod compatibility information can be obtained from Luth's forum posts (including updates from May 12th and 21st) or on individual mod creators' Discord channels.
· You can use lists showing the status of major mods (e.g., Core, Injector, Testing, Production) to help manage your mods.

· We are asking viewers for their opinions on whether to apply the May 21st emergency hotfix update.
· If you applied the May 12th update, we recommend applying this one as well.
· Viewers can share their experiences or opinions about applying the update in the comments.
