Can’t upload to the Exchange
Problem I want to upload something to my Studio but I get a red crossed out circle as a result. My upload can’t be found on the exchange afterwards. The Launcher says my upload was successful but the I can’t find it in my Studio Suggestions Avoid special characters in your upload names (colon, semicolon, dots, dashes, ..) Even though you could not upload, the exchange thinks it is so you can’t upload again with the same name.

Exchange – Please update your game
My game is updated. Why does it say Update your Game ? When you download Sims and Houses from the exchange, the website shows you which Store-Items and which Add-Ons are necessary for the download. Sometimes it says please Update your Game. This notice is there for everyone as soon as the download needs a certain patch to install. Some Store content only works if you have a certain patch level. This message means nothing if you are patched to the newest patch level. The browser does not check your installed game version.
