S4MP 0.6.0 - Up to 12 players support online & LAN [Win & OSX]
🕑 Added 2020-06-08 20:56:28 +0000 UTCWould you like to play The Sims 4 with the family? Looking for the next party game with friends? Tired of travel infinite loading? Look no further!
S4MP 0.6.0 is a huge milestone in The Sims 4 multiplayer evolution. Now the mod supports up to 12 players at the same time both in online and LAN mode! Get your friends together and experience the next generation of The Sims 4 multiplayer gaming.
The new version tackles one more huge challenge: finally, the server code is 100% unified for LAN and online, thus it is officially confirmed that LAN and online mode can be maintained in later updates without having extra development work. This also means there is no need for multiple launchers anymore – 0.6.0 supports both online and LAN play out of the box.
The server has been completely revamped to support high player count with a low-performance footprint. It also fully eliminates infinite loading issues when traveling online.
- 12 player support (limit to be increased later)
- No more travel infinite load during online play
- LAN and online play in the same launcher!
- Online servers located in US and EU for low latency
- Start game button has been fixed for Mac launcher
To celebrate the new chapter – and encourage testing with more players – we are introducing Platinum Tier ($25) which gives accounts for 4 players to play!
Important things to keep in mind:
- There are now different server regions (Europe, US), the room code only works in the region where the game has been hosted!
- The severe lagging issue between Mac-Windows cross-platform sessions persists. If you would like to play cross-platform using the mod, we recommend using Bootcamp with Windows on the Mac computer. (Mac-Mac and Windows-Windows sessions work fine!)
- As always, this version contains a lot of updates and most probably contains bugs. Feedback is very welcome, and it is a huge help to boost the development of the mod.
If you encounter any issues, please do not hesitate to contact us!
Next up: (not included in this release)
- Fix the lag issue between Windows and Mac
- Build & buy mode support

latest version (0.11.0) has flawless Mac-Win crossplay support, you don't need anything like that anymore :) please see latest post
you said use try using Bootcamp for Mac-windows but what exactly is that and how do I use it to help?
yes, thank you ^^
Adam Fulop
Solution already in progress in e-mail ;)
Yes, its impossible to use previous versions of the launcher as it asks to update, we use 0.6.0 one, and choose same region too

Hi there, do both of you are using the same version of the launcher/mod? Also please make sure you are in the same region as well.
Hello, me and my friend are trying to connect, but when the host creates a room he is not in it (it looks empty). When a guest joins he sees himself but there is no host. And for host theres no "start game" button. We both have same version of the game, same packs, save file is ok :( we also tried to connect by lan using hamachi, and without it, the other side cant even enter the room.
Adam Fulop
hi there, sure!
Hi can we play together on the same origin account playing offline
Adam Fulop
Hi there, sounds like you have not enabled script mods in the game settings, but also answered in PM!
hello, i want to play with my girlfriend on LAN. save file is synced. but if we start the game, then the "Game Connection" doesn´t change... We can start the savegame but not play together...

Basement issues have been already reported, fixes coming soon!
Adam Fulop
it's definitely on the list!
The person I play with is having trouble accessing basements since our change to 0.6.0. Is there a place to compile any bugs or is this a known issue?

I can't change my sims in CAS. Will there be support for that soon?
Adam Fulop
Hi there! There's no ETA yet but hopefully, there will be something playable next month ;)
Hi there! Can you already say when the update with "Build & buy mode support" will be released?
Adam Fulop
Hi there! Just to make clear, you can choose any region regardless of your geographical location. Your friend in the Caribbean can also choose North America :)
Hi there! Unfortunately, the update lets me as a host can only open a launcher for North America and Europe but my boyfriend, who I'm playing with, lives in the Caribbean. Is there a way to play together anyway? The old launcher somehow doesn't work anymore...
sorry for my english i m french
;)

That's a tough one, later we'll see if we can make it happen
When will the multi version or the sims be able to travel alone without taking away all the others?
