==Release Notes==
;Free Base Game Content
*Sims can now dumpster dive from the Commercial Dumpster pre-placed in Sunset Valley and find cool items including furniture and collectables!Under certain circumstances, dumpsters on pre-placed lots remain unable to dive into by default unless the dumpsters are replaced. Such dumpsters can be identified by the right lid being open. More details are on the Dumpster page.
*New air conditioning units and electrical box decorative objects.
*New Terrain Paint for Build Mode.
*A new traffic light for Create a World.
;Base Game

*Sims will no longer occasionally flip or stutter when trying to walk through doorways.
*Gifts sent by invalid NPC Sims will no longer cause the mailbox to become unusable.
*The Fog Emitter that came with The Sims 3 Ambitions has been updated to transition properly to the new base game Fog Emitter object. Any lots created with The Sims 3 Ambitions fog emitters that were installed since the release of The Sims 3 Seasons will have to be reinstalled for the emitter effects to play properly. There is no need to re-upload any content to The Sims 3 Exchange – all content created with either The Sims 3 Ambitions fog emitter or the new base game fog emitter will work properly when installed after this update is applied.
