inZOI v0.4.3 hotfix

The November 11, 2025 hotfix is notable for a reversal: the inZOI team has undone one of v0.4.0's changes after players pushed back on it.

Build versions

  • Windows PC (Steam): 20251111.8678.W
  • Mac (Steam): 20251111.8675.M
  • Mac App Store: 20251111.8679.M — updated November 12

Downloaded textures are back in MY Texture

v0.4.0 changed MY Texture so that externally downloaded textures no longer appeared in the list, a decision made for stability and performance. That change is now reverted — textures downloaded from Canvas show up and work exactly as they did before. The team apologised for the disruption and credited player feedback for the reversal.

Other improvements

  • Night lighting brightened so surroundings no longer look excessively dark.
  • Eating and drinking interactions capped at 30 minutes — a follow-on tune from the 48-minute day.
  • You can organise multiple plates or books at once.
  • On "Continue" saves, newly created properties now update automatically, and a "Update site manually" button was added under Game Options → Gameplay → Other.
  • During dates, the partner Zoi is auto-selected as the Team Up target.
  • Housewarming events now offer Greet and Receive a gift interactions.
  • Zois with the Lazy trait no longer accumulate mountains of trash — New Game only.

Bug fixes

Gameplay

  • Fixed crops withering too quickly — the same class of bug last patched in v0.3.6.
  • Fixed an abnormally large number of NPCs turning up to certain events.
  • Fixed 'Kiddy Guards' interactions not activating with distant objects in Bliss Bay.
  • Fixed high-level Zois failing at boat fishing far more often than their skill should allow.
  • Fixed food not being created after paying for Bibimbap at Down Deli.
  • Fixed excessive toddler needs requests when not resolved in time.
  • Fixed Zois falling into a "Devastated" state and struggling to recover their needs.
  • Fixed irrelevant motions triggering in surprise situations, and scheduled meetings by message not registering.
  • Fixed empty plates when using a mod that modifies Food.json.
  • Fixed Meow Store donuts' emotional suppression effect not applying.
  • Fixed excessive mirror flickering in Low-spec Mode. Ray Tracing now defaults to Off on low-spec PCs.

Character

  • Fixed senior-specific motions not playing when switching a Zoi to Senior in CAZ.
  • Fixed outfits missing from the [Connect] category.

Build Mode

  • Fixed stair tread customisation not applying to the landing, and stair wall settings resetting on Continue.
  • Fixed AI Build not working on high-end AMD graphics cards.

Mods

  • Fixed Language Mods not applying when opening Options from the lobby, and being deactivated after a restart — both affecting the localisation mod support introduced in October.
  • The crash notification popup now lists which mods were automatically disabled.
  • Fixed a crash when attaching or detaching accessories on the 3D Printer.
