Not patched, but shows as fully patched = issues with mods
Hello, when I first installed the game with its expansions, the launcher told me that it wasn't patched up to date. I thought it wasn't too important and ignored it. Since then it stopped telling me about it.
However, later I started using Story Progression mod and this page nicely described how to learn your game version through the launcher:
http://nraas.wikispaces.com/Patch+Level+Compatibility
What I found strange is that my game shows as fully patched and up-to-date.
So I shrugged it all off and started using the mod. And I ran into multitudes of bugs, starting from small stuff like family inventory stopping to function and ending with real game-breaking glitches, after which the only solution was to quit without saving. Even drastic measures like resetting sims or evicting them didn't help.
I think that means my game is NOT patched up to date. Nraas page warns that using the wrong version of their mod means you run into many bugs and glitches.
One good solution would be to manually install the full latest patch.
1) Where can I download the full cumulative game patch to install it? Or, if it doesn't exist, the full collection of all patches, I'd install them one by one. My latest EP is Into The Future.
2) If possible, how else can I look up the game version and the patch version correctly?
