More bug fixes and gameplay enhancements are included in this update. Here’s what you’ll find:
Updated dashboards and menu pop-ups now run on a more stable system. The Rocket, Sports, Media, Franchise, and Company dashboards—along with the Main Menu screens for Continue, Load, and Victory Hall—no longer use the old window technology responsible for certain pop-up crashes and soft-locks, including windows closing immediately after opening or becoming impossible to dismiss.
Corrupted saves are now repaired when loaded instead of causing a crash. This includes corruption involving venture capital investments and market events.
College applications are now a true one-shot decision. Applying locks in your acceptance result and scholarship offer, preventing re-roll scumming. Selecting “Decide Later” preserves that same offer for you.
Fixed the “Start a Company While Employed” pop-up. You will no longer receive a false “not enough hours” warning—or have your child-time sliders reset—when the company fits within your schedule. The schedule check now occurs before you are asked to quit your job.
“Total Debt” has been renamed “Total Loans” on the bank screen, since the figure only includes personal and student loans.
Pay Max now fully clears any debt you can afford to repay instead of occasionally leaving a few dollars behind. It also tells you exactly how much was paid.
Complete localization update. Non-English-speaking players should now have a much more comprehensive experience in their selected language.
Latin American Spanish and European Portuguese players were previously being forced into English despite complete translations. Language detection now maps these players to the correct language.
Fixed a cross-language save bug where a save created in one language, such as German, could break when loaded in another language, such as English.
Your chosen North Star victory Condition now displays correctly — the victory bar and HUD were stuck on "Net Worth" after character creation even if you picked a different North Star goal.
