Thank you so much for your sweet comments, @rosemow and @Gwiniel! I'm happy to say that both parks are getting a decent amount of downloads. I wasn't sure whether or not I was going to upload them to the gallery at first, but it's so nice to know they're of use to other Simmers out there! Also, if anyone found the lots…

I think this would be a really interesting feature, but only if done correctly. Just imagine if a feature like that went rampant and altered every romantic relationship in the game, or even worse, made it impossible to have two sims the player wants together to fall for one another. :anguished: As someone else mentioned,…

It's so interesting reading everyone's speculations as to what happened to Mrs. Villareal. I love the backstories you've come up with, @citysimmer and @HopeyStarr! So in-depth! :smile: Personally, I've given a lot of thought to the Villareals' backstory, which will probably be apparent by my lengthy post. :grimace: In my…

I haven't played with a lot of premades lately, but I've had luck with Salim Benali. From what I've seen, both his sons and daughters have been very attractive. I've also had sims have kids with Joaquin Le Chien and Caleb Vatore, but it seems to be a hit or miss with them in my games. While I haven't had any sims have…

This is such a great thread idea! :smile: Some of the creations on here make me feel really self-conscious about my builds, but seeing as I just built two parks, I figure I can share a few screenshots on here in case anyone is in search for some new venues for their game. I built these two parks for Newcrest in my save,…
-
While this isn't my favorite screenshot ever, it is currently a fave of mine. It's one of the first screenshots I've taken on my new computer and I'm just in awe of how beautiful the game looks on a machine that can run it well. :love: A little backstory on this screenshot... I was playtesting a park I built today, so I…

Honestly, it depends on my mood. I play the game more often than I build, but I’ll build or tinker around in CAS if I get burnt out while playing. As long as I’m inspired to play or build, I have equal amounts of fun doing either. Although, I definitely don’t have fun in build/buy if I’m trying to build a house and can’t…

If my sims are too busy to clean something up themselves, then I'll handle it. If not, I'll sometimes have them go around and clean up dishes, especially if I know there's a possibility they've placed something up on a high half-wall or beneath an object I can't reach. I don't really see anything wrong with cleaning up…
-
I'm definitely sentimental about my sims' photography. I keep their photos around their homes to remind me of different places they've been, friends they've made, their family, etc. I'm also very attached to my screenshots because I can always look back and remember that moment with just the click of a button. :smile: My…

I love hearing some of the ambient sounds and funny simlish words. For example, I really like listening to what the sims are saying while they're acting, especially if it's a romance scene. A sim with a higher acting skill sounds very theatrical and over-the-top, whereas a sim with a lower skill sounds SO uncomfortable.…

As others have mentioned already, autonomy can really say a lot, especially in a sim you're not controlling. Is the sim you're not controlling adding to the conversation? Better yet, do they go out of their way to interact with your sim? Does your own sim queue up socials autonomously while talking to a particular sim?…

I love Maxis Match CC. Alpha CC can be very impressive if made correctly, but I feel that the realism of it clashes with the aesthetic of the game. At least when I dabbled in Alpha CC, it seemed like I had to download a lot of pieces to make one cohesive look. Whereas with MM CC, just installing a handful of it expands my…

Since this is the dilemma you’re now facing, I say play it out and keep an eye on their whims — that is, if you’re playing both Damian and Celina and play with whims. I know TS4 whims are pretty much entirely random and aren’t as intuitive as TS3’s, but I heavily rely on them to pick up on the way my sims feel about…
-
I haven’t personally received any emails from EA regarding a survey, but then again, I don’t believe everyone is asked to provide feedback at the same time. Does the email explain what the survey is for? And just how personal are the questions? Could you maybe provide an example? I’d say if you’re uneasy about it, don’t…
-
There’s obviously so many things that need fixing, but I really hope they fix the random teleporting glitch. It kind of freaks me out when my sim is walking around downstairs and pops up upstairs. :lol: I also hope they fix the leaf piles and make it so that holiday decor will stop sticking to commercial lots long after a…
-
Well, it’s really too bad you have to tear yourself away from your household to fix the issue. It would have been helpful if they had added a special interaction for families when it comes to introducing themselves to a famous relative. At least your sims’ son will be able to talk to his uncle after you switch back,…
-
Huh, that’s really weird! I used the same interaction in my game to introduce one of my sim’s celebrity friends to another and it worked fine. Have you tried seeing whether or not adding them into a group together and making them perform interactions together would build a relationship? Or can you not even add a famous,…
-
If you click on another sim, you should see an option that says “Other Sims” or something along those lines. Once you select that, there should be another option that says “Talk Up...”. Have your child’s mother “talk up” her son to her brother and he should then approach his nephew to introduce himself. I think you’ll be…

I like it so far; it’s nice that increasing reputation is a little challenging and requires a decent amount of input from the player. I haven’t played with it extensively, but I was pleasantly surprised to see my sim with a great reputation suffer the consequences of “cheating” on another. I put “cheating” in quotations…

I was almost certain she'd end up on my list of premades I really dislike, but she doesn't seem all that horrible. She'll still be deleted from my saves, but that's beside the point. :lol: The only sims I like from GF are Octavia Moon and Venessa Jeong, so they get to stay. Sorry, not sorry, Judith. :smirk:
-
I'm kind of conflicted when it comes to townies. I understand the purpose they serve, and there have definitely been instances where I become attached to some to the point where I save them for future use. However, there's also times when I can't stand them and go on a mass deleting spree. :lol: As a player who creates my…
-
I really should have clicked the "it depends on the outfit chosen" option, but overall, my sims have to be wearing socks. If the females are wearing boots, they're wearing either knee highs, leggings, or tights. When they're wearing any other shoe, I don't bother. If the guys are wearing pretty much any shoe other than…
-
This just happened for the first time ever in my game tonight and it really surprised me. :open_mouth: My mouth literally fell open. :lol: Both relationship bars were maxed out, they were considered "soulmates", their needs were perfect, and the female sim had the whim to get married, while the male had the whim to propose…
-
I’m over here sounding it out like, “Band-ee-opa-di-ha-YAY.” :joy:
-
I’m so sorry to hear about what you’re going through, OP. I wish you, your family, and anyone else who is suffering in any way the best. :heart: I’m very happy to hear that you feel so embraced and welcomed by the community. I also find the Sims to be somewhat cathartic and an escape from reality when times get hard, so…
-
Every time I have my sims invite anyone over, I lock the doors to the rooms I want to keep the guests from entering. The other tip I can offer would be to create a group with as many of the guests as you can and control them that way. Then, try to get them to participate in as many group activities with your sims as you…
-
I did create my “simself” once or twice. I don’t think I ever managed to make it really look like me, though. I find it difficult to match my own features to the presets in CAS for some reason. Once I did create myself, I couldn’t play as her for very long. In addition to it feeling kind of bizarre, I got bored pretty…
-
The look on the guy’s face with the colorful sweater is like, “I could spill the beans right here, right now...” :lol: This kind of reminds me of the time I played a sim who had a couple little romances over her life. By the time she was married, those other romances had decayed due to lack of socialization. She was out to…
-
What an interesting thread idea! :smile: I know he’s been mentioned already, but if I had to marry a townie from TS4, Salim Benali would have to be the one. I’d hate to steal him from my lovely sim, but he’s such a chill character in my game. I love that he’s very laid-back yet ambitiously driven to succeed as a writer. He…

I remember tearing up when I first saw a cat pass away in someone’s TS3 Let’s Play on YouTube. The way the grim reaper tosses the toy into the air and the cat vanishes into the heavenly light breaks my heart every time. :heartbreak: Since I play with aging off in both games, I haven’t seen anything as heartbreaking as…
Howdy, Stranger!
