  • But that would be nothing but a rabbithole career because there are no militaries or schools in the game. At least you can actually do something with this career instead of just leaving for work and then returning home.
  • Like Egon mentioned, your life span setting may be what's causing longer. Do you have the game set on long life span? If so, a sim would normally age up 1 day after their bar is filled up but this becomes 3 days on the long age span setting.
  • They potty train quicker with a sim teaching them, but if you don't want to wait for them to be done, you can also send the adult sim off to do something else once the toddler sits down and cancel out the potty training task in the adult's queue. The toddler will finish up on their own. The toddler will improve their potty…
  • I returned to Illinois from California in May one year on Summer Break and it rained at some point in the day for an entire month straight....every freaking day. I was keenly aware of it because I had just spent the last 3 years living in Southern California where it's sunny all but 2 weeks of the year. So, yes, in real…
  • It's possible the dog is getting tired more quickly in the heat or "overheating". You also mentioned that the dog has the Couch Potato trait and those dogs are lazy and will just lay down and sleep pretty much anywhere at random times throughout the day. If it is a heat issue, you could try putting a dog park in one of the…
  • I just had a toddler walk by my house with an umbrella by himself at a little after midnight, lol.
  • You can store them on shelves, desks, bookcases, etc. as decorative objects. They have the function of each raising the environment score of a room (+3 environment). There are also 2 types of eggs that glow in the dark and thus can function as a nite-lite of sorts...I place them in the toddlers/kids rooms for that purpose.…
  • The don't do livestreams for "just a patch" so obviously it's going to be more than just a few bug fixes....even Grant's tweet says bug fixes plus a "feature update".
  • Just did the egg hunt and, yep, you can search the toilet for eggs, lol......found one there too....that one is definitely NOT a keeper, haha.
  • Should probably be set up so that you pay for your own meal when invited out but not the other person's meal. Would be pretty unrealistic for the other party to automatically pay unless it's a date. If someone expects their friends to pay for their food every time they are asked if they want to grab a bite to eat, then I…
  • Toddlers fill up on just about any food except for a few things before finishing their plate....that's why I just give them the toddler foods as most of the adult foods that take time to prepare are wasted on them. Once the Thinking skill is leveled up, they don't throw food. So, yeah, if you have a toddler with low…
  • Except when new versions of phones, cars, etc. are released, they aren't just carbon copies of the old versions. Many of the same features and design will usually be there...but some things will be gone...and some things will be added...and some things will be changed and function a little differently or have a slightly…
  • And there are plenty of desert towns that don't get any snow. If you look at the terrain around Oasis Springs, it appears to be low desert...not high desert. More importantly, this is a fictional desert town and clearly intended to represent a general hot weather, desert town. It's not really realistic to expect them to…
  • Once you've done the 7 Toddler Challenge (raising 7 toddlers at the same time, each with a different trait)...or my version, the Fussy Septuplet Challenge (raising 7 identical toddlers, all with the fussy trait)...and you're not permitted to switch to the toddlers to control them....then raising 1, 2 or even 3 toddlers at…
  • @hunniboo1 If you're using MCCC, you can just click on the pregnant sim, select MCCC and then select MC Pregnancy to change the number and sex of the babies during pregnancy....you don't need to mess with the strawberries or worry about getting 4 babies with one pregnancy. Also, if you go into the main MCCC menu and then…
  • @SimCher The easiest way to do that is to go into the "Manage Households" screen from the world map and then use the "Transfer Sims Between Households" option for the household that has the puppies and then you can transfer one of the puppies to the other household.
  • Same here....the cat had a long list of pet actions queued up.
  • I use a mod from Weerbesu which allows you to invite anyone in the game (including kids, toddlers and pets) to social events whether you know them or not. It can be found here: http://modthesims.info/d/558097 and seems to be working okay with the recent patches but I haven't used it much in awhile. The main mod there is…
  • Some of the cheat codes aren't working since the last patch for Seasons.....that cheat is one of them on the EA help thread list of bugged cheat codes: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/COLLECTION-THREAD-Issues-with-Cheats/m-p/6382727/highlight/true#M45244
  • I feel your pain. I'm not a rotational player but I have a ton of sims that I've created and use to populate my worlds. Working on getting a new game set up and it's taking a longgggg time to add hot & cold outfits for everyone plus toddler swimsuits.
  • We got 2 snowstorms in the middle of April in the Midwest part of the U.S. this year.
  • Games are generally made to appeal to as many people as possible....not eat up their development budget by adding things that only appeal to very small numbers of people. It would be impossible for them to add every thing that someone may want to use as a custom option in a game.
  • I just submitted this one to the EA thread.....it appears that the Character Values cheats aren't working (however the Character Values trait cheat is working). I was trying to get some households set up to start a new game with the Seasons release and tried to set some stuff as far as character values for the kids and…
  • I'm curious to see if this makes bowling take even longer though. I haven't sent my sims bowling in awhile because it takes practically an entire day to bowl a game...and that's without them standing around chatting. But I do like that they added 3 and 5 frame games because I'll probably use bowling more now that they can…
    in That PATCH! Comment by JimG72 June 2018
  • Sims time has never been precisely equal to real-life time. Pretty much any task in the game takes longer than real-life. It doesn't take an hour and a half to eat a salad in real-life or 10 hours to bowl a game. In this case, they went shorter on the time....and I'm sure it probably made much more sense from a programming…
  • #1 - No one is forced to pre-order. #2 - Sims 4 has never had pre-order bonuses for EP, GP and SP add-on content so I'm not sure why anyone would expect that to suddenly be different almost 4 years later. #3 - Some people just like to pay for things and get the purchase out of the way or people who need to budget may want…
  • Cats & Dogs was released on Nov. 10, 2017. So 3 EPs within 13 months? Doubtful.
  • Yep, I had the same experience as Simberella....well, once the kid befriended the monster, he wanted to talk to it every night and wasn't getting any sleep....but don't remember him trying to talk with it during the day...although his room was upstairs so it may have been too far away to interest him during the day. Now,…
  • Hmmm, doesn't seem to be working for me. Edit: Nevermind...I just entered it a random phone number and it unlocked.
  • My puppies always eat on their own....puppies don't need to eat as much or nearly as often as adult dogs though. My adult dogs will finish an entire bowl when they eat....the puppies don't even eat half a bowl.
