CRITICAL INFORMATION: If you have not downloaded the mod “updated” today (March 1, 2026, prior to 10:41AM Central Standard Time), you do not need to redownload. If you have, however, you MUST redownload the mod to prevent harm to your game. My account was compromised suddenly and I have no idea how or when exactly it happened.
Affected mods include: Let Toddlers Swear, Misery Traits, Chat Pack, and Coming Out (from Mod The Sims only, creator’s patreon not affected)
The uploads included a new script file containing something called “silkrose_debug” that attempts to download files from a third-party website. (thanks to Kuttoe for that info)
It’s confirmed that Nate does have control of their account again, so the above message is confirmed from them. However, if you downloaded the previous updates from them on MTS (24 hours prior to March 1st at 10:41AM Central Standard Time), delete immediately, run a virus scan on your computer. You may want to change your passwords as well.
There may be more mods/creators affected that we don’t know about yet, so please be extremely cautious when downloading updates (don’t install CC that mysteriously includes a script file, check creators social media for announcements, wait for me to post them, etc). Make sure to keep ModGuard installed for added protection.
*Mod list updates from Mod the Sims will be on hold until further notice*
Update at 12:14pm (Pacific Time) → More compromised accounts were found including PurrSimity & jellyheadDimbulb March 2nd, 2026 Update – MTS owner Tashiketh posted this in response to the incidents. Mod list updates from MTS will still be on hold for now.
March 2nd, 2026 Update #2 – Another malware upload found on LoversLab by o_pedrão (a new creator account): The Virginity System. Please follow the same advice as before! See Sims After Dark posts for more detailed information!
Warning: Some custom careers (not all) are causing LEs when using interactions that bring up the sim picker. If you’re experiencing this issue with any of your careers (after school activities included), please submit a broken mod report! More info for creators (thanks OneMoreKayaker)
Feb 16th update: Core Library (by Lot 51) was updated to include a hotfix for this issue. So, you can install Core Library alongside your custom careers to continue using them for now. It’s still recommended that creators update their careers for these changes to avoid potential issues.
These mods will still be listed as Broken (or N/A if the creator decides to rely on the hotfix) until their included career tunings are changed to 32 bit instances (or EA reverts/fixes the change).
After updating these careers, you’ll have to have your Sim rejoin and cheat their promotion by using MCCC or UI Cheats.
All Ps2 Bios Files Including The New Scph90006 Upd Guide
Need to make sure the review is accurate. If I'm uncertain about specific versions or their implications, I should either research it or note it as an area to check. Since I can't access the internet here, I'll have to rely on existing knowledge.
Then, the review should cover the user experience. For example, if someone uses a different BIOS chip or a mod chip, which versions work best. The compatibility between different PS2 models (SCPH-90001 to SCPH-90006) and their respective BIOS versions might be important. all ps2 bios files including the new scph90006 upd
So the review should clarify that the BIOS files (SCPH90000 to SCPH90006) correspond to different generations of the PS2 hardware, and each has its own set of features and support for homebrew, backups, etc. Need to make sure the review is accurate
In summary, the review needs to cover all PS2 BIOS versions up to SCPH90006, explain their features, differences in terms of homebrew and backup compatibility, how they affect user experience, and provide a recommendation based on the purpose (retro gaming, homebrew, etc.). Then, the review should cover the user experience
I should mention the main changes in each BIOS update. For example, SCPH39000 introduced the Net Yaroze SDKs, SCPH39001 allowed for online functionality in Japan. Then later versions might have had security patches. The SCPH90006 is probably the latest one with the most modern security, but might not support older homebrew methods.
Also, the impact on homebrew. Earlier BIOS versions might be easier to exploit for homebrew, while newer ones have more security. So using a modded PS2 or swapping BIOS chips to use an older BIOS for better homebrew compatibility.
I also need to explain how users can access these BIOS files. Are they available for download? Are there any legal concerns? Probably not distribute them as it's copyrighted material, but for archival purposes, maybe some communities host them for backup.
