Hello there!

I'm seriously considering buying Apartment Life, but first I have to decide whether or not to patch my copy of Free Time. It wouldn't normally be an issue, but I had serious problems with the Bon Voyage Patch (the second one, I think) which made my game unplayable and finished off one of my neighborhoods. It took a lot of googling and checking the boards at MATY before I realised how to correct it (a complete reinstall and hack of my registry files). To this day, my copy of BV remains unpatched. I have had no problems.

After that, I heard that the first FT patch was seriously borked. The second one is supposed to be OK, but is it? My game runs fine without it, and I'm unsure whether I should take the risk after my BV problems, but it is good practise to patch before you upgrade to AL.

Any advice?

I patched both BV and FT with no problems.  All issues I had with crashing and  neighborhood issues were resolve with more RAM. There has been a couple of annoyances like Mortimer vanishing and one house where the phone wouldn't work. Those kind of things.

where can i find the patch for ft ? just got the game and have been haveing some probs

thanks i hope this is the good one and not the 1st one they say is borked

I thought the Freetime patches got up to number three?

The one linked on the EA site should be the latest, anyway, and I have it in my game.

Hope they do a better job with the AL patch.
