If you want my help - ask on my Discord or on CS RIN forum. Finding/joining them acts as an IQ test that filters the dumbest of people that I don't want to interact with.
The Sims™ 4 Lovestruck Expansion Pack will be released on July 25th. Preorders start on June 27th. (Screenshot shows early buyer bonuses, there are no screenshots from the pack itself as of now.)
To the impatient fucks in comments under other tweets - according to the timestamp on my Discord, it took me 2 minutes 59 seconds.
So next time learn how timezones work or open a countdown on SimsCommunity. And after that countdown hits 0 - wait a bit.

Guide time, since Lovestruck patch obliterated a lot of mods and people keep trying to use them as is.
In cases like that you need to go nuclear. Go to "Documents", then "Electronic Arts". From there move all "* Sims 4" folders to your desktop. Replace * with The/Die/De/Los/Les
So many people in replies thinking they can run the game with outdated mods... When will you learn? It's the same story every time we get a new DLC or a big patch. Update your mods. If a mod wasn't updated yet - too bad, get rid of it. And google 50/50 method.
Just scheduled a tweet with additional description of the features. 6PM CET / 4PM UTC.
This time I'm not adding any screenshots to my tweet since EA doesn't like that. They will be posted later on the GitHub page I linked under the leak tweet. The description is in English only.
In case you missed it - pre-orders start on November 2nd. That means we will probably get a trailer that day too. So if you still don't believe me - just wait a week. :)

CAS/BB previews posted in the same place as the previous ones. I can't be bothered to sort them nicely, the EP drops today anyway.
I had them 21h ago already, I just assumed you can see them in game and website... Apparently not. But game changers already uploaded vids so whatev

I'm also not going to touch those daily rewards. Someone already released them as a mod so I can't be bothered to do anything with it. Don't ask about that either.
There's nothing to leak. Everything I could find is already posted on . But here's the logo, cover art render and a smaller version of that render without people. CAS and BB items are not available yet.
Ever noticed the "packversion" in the version.ini file, in the DLC folder? (EP01, EP02, etc.)
First number of that version is incremented with each DLC. I assume number 1 is reserved for the base game, so the first DLC - Holiday Celebration Pack - has number 2.
If that's still too hard to follow, use this:
You simply select a file and get a modified one in return.
This tool also adds a value that makes all items show as claimed on the main menu screen. Not that it changes anything but it's there.
Forgot to add: this unlocks them in-game only. They are still locked on the main menu screen with a button to claim them. And those asking for a tutorial - it's literally just pasting text and replacing one part with ID that's right below. In this example with "1000200030000".

How I got this value? I changed my PC clock and claimed them all. :| Rewards are not saved to EA servers. They are saved locally to that file. Future events may be under the same or another entry. I'm not going to check that. So someone please keep an eye on this stuff.
That means there will be (about) two DLCs between Lovestruck and EP17, and (about) four DLCs between EP17 and EP18.
So now you can guesstimate when we get them. (I don't have any info about EP17 and 18. Only that EA is working on them.)
If you get a "remid" error - clear your cookies, open ea website, scroll to the bottom, change language to English US and log in. If that doesn't help try logging into EA app with "remember me" checked. If it asks for credentials again after reopening the app - make a new acc.
Here are some official translations of the new pack's description and title (and some cover arts):
There are 26 translations but according to the data I have we're not getting any new languages in game, just the 18 we already have.

There are some exceptions, but in general this number represents the release order. The latest two Kits have numbers 80 and 81. The upcoming Lovestruck DLC has number 82. And after some digging today I found out that EP17 will have number 85, and EP18 will have number 90.
Posted some info about DX11 and DX9 in "alternative" version on my server and on the forum. If DX9 works and DX11 doesn't - I'm not going to help you. That's EA's job, not mine. Don't report that here nor on my Discord.
As for the exceptions:
Number 40 is missing - it was probably reserved for SP19.
Numbers for EP11, SP25 and SP24 are out of order - 47, 48, 46.
EA skipped SP27 - no missing number though.
Ooor someone could figure out the format (it's base64, first there's uint32 - always 1 (magic number?), then uint32 - length of the data. And the data? IDK. I'll leave it to someone else to decipher.
(I guess I'm asking the wrong people but) did anyone get the horses DLC on Steam? It was marked as "released" for 13 minutes (from 17:05-17:18 UTC) so I wonder if it was possible to actually download the DLC files.

Browser cache. Clear it, refresh the page and they will be gone! Not that it matters, took them 12h, people already reposted them everywhere.
I don't care about your shader presets, organized debug or whatever else you put in your game folder. We're cleaning it up. Everything has to go. Run the validator again. If it still lists stuff under "unknown files" - you didn't delete everything. (Ignore the .curseclient file.)
