A surprise (even to myself) but this pack is the most fun Sims pack in a long time for me! I really love it (even if posting this on Tumblr has made me a social outcast).
I'd love to see Journey to Batuu screenshots on my tumblr dash, but no one I follow has bought the pack so far (or ever). But at least there's no hate, mostly everyone pretends the pack doesn't exist.

Aww I'm on tumblr and have the pack!! I'll be posting screenshots. You can find me at BadCowboy69 if you wanna follow me! I don't have fantastic shots just yet since I'm barely getting my feet wet in the game but I do plan on posting as I advance.
Just popping in to say that as a HUGE fan of the real world Batuu (in both Disneyland and Hollywood Studios), Maxis just nailed it on this pack. The missions feel like the Datapad app in the land (scanning crates, visiting locations, scanning ships), and it's just fantastic that all the in-land audio and characters are here. After spending dozens of hours in the land (and eating more Ronto Wraps than I care to admit), I am so happy to see something that I really love in my favorite game.
I wanted to share the funniest Star Wars let's play I've seen so far. DrGluon has an ability to make everything positive and interesting.
I know many people don't want to watch a long video, but I suggest to check out his intro, it's awesome.
thanks so much for a great pack. I been really injoying this starwars pack so much i taking my time with my sims and learning each time i go there i tell lot a lot to learn and get my skills up to make it there to get the thing i can get. Thanks so much sims team for this pack and i seen a lot of starwars sims injoying to hope to see what you all bring us with the next pack.
So, here I am still waiting to get the gamepack. I wait for a sale or a bundle, but that's ok, I don't mind. I returned to playing my last save and enjoy playing anyway.
But then I stumbled upon this build by simproved. She created a Batuu lot just before the release of the pack, so an alternate version of Batuu that doesn't require the pack. Someone even managed to remodel the millenium falcon without the use of CC (and without the star wars gamepack), which is truly amazing. Ijust had to take a look up close. Unfortunately the lot is a bit to big and cluttered to run smoothly on my laptop but I wanted to share some pictures I took anyway. (At the risk of looking pathetic because I don't have the pack yet )
This might be the first time I ever log in to comment on these forums, but I had to just say a big THANK YOU to all of you who have chatted along here. You've really made my days as I was waiting for the pack's release, and I'm glad you're still going. I never find anyone to geek out about this stuff otherwise. :)
Is it silly to say that I actually burst into tears when I found out that this pack was coming? Probably, but, um... I'll never ever get to go to Galaxy's edge in real life, never build my own little droid and never have my own lightsaber. This pack is itself more than I thought I'd have, so, yeah, even though it isn't perfect, I love it to bits.
Oh and while it took a bit of recolor work and I don't think they show up in the Droid Depot options (just buydebug), I have my Renegade, Sovereign and Scoundrel R-units ready to be added once I make their owner. This is as close as I'll get to actually making them, right? :D

Welcome to the forums @Ryublue ! I'm glad you have enjoyed our conversations in the thread and felt comfortable enough to log in and say hello.
I felt a little emotional too, when release day hit for the pack and I was finally going to be able to play a Star Wars adventure in my Sims game. Especially when I heard the epic soundtrack start to play as I was loading Black Spire. It's so exciting! We're all passionate simmers here, so I'm sure no one thinks you're silly at all.
Feel free to join our conversations about the pack (and Star Wars) and share your adventures.

Thank you! I'm sorry I'm so awkward - I'm trying to figure out how the forum even works, much harder than the actual game I'm afraid. :P The music is great, absolutely, but am I the only one that was confused as to why the Cantina Song wasn't in there? How could there be an Oga's or a DJ Rex without the classic? So, ho hum, now there is in my game. Or a small, odd, version of it anyways. :smiley:

Yeah, the classic cantina song should be there, I agree. I was hoping to hear that as well. I might just slip it into the game files so I can hear it anyway.
And if you have any forum questions, there are a lot of helpful people around. The first thing you should be aware of is that some of your posts will be somewhat restricted - like, you won't be able to create a thread yet. But eventually, as you post more, you earn enough points to become a full member.
Well, I'm up too late again, it's after 3am where I am so I must get off to bed. Have fun!
So, here I am still waiting to get the gamepack. I wait for a sale or a bundle, but that's ok, I don't mind. I returned to playing my last save and enjoy playing anyway.

I watched that build earlier today. Pretty sure the Millennium Falcon was made using TOOL, which lets you do all sorts of manipulation of objects, including rotating them on multiple axes. By someone with a lot of time on their hands, and a lot of patience.

I got that lot downloaded too just haven't had time to check it out yet. So many nice Star Wars builds to try out.

Yes, I believe the tool mod was used. But the nice thing is you don't need that mod to place a gallery building created with it in your game. I can only imagine how many hours were needed.

Yeah, depending on how the future goes, this pack might be the closest I get to a theme park. So I'm glad to have it.
Welcome @Ryublue ! Happy to have you join us. When you become a full forum member you will be able to post pics and show us some of your game screenies It won't take you long to get there if you do a few posts.
Well, I need to have a late breakfast (overslept today lol) and here is my sim having his Batuu breakfast. Can't remember what it's called, but it looks quite tasty.
Does anybody know how to recruit new members into whatever faction you're in? Chatting them up and befriending them doesn't seem to give me any 'Recruit' interactions so I'm stumped!
I stumbled upon Rey training with her lightsaber and I literally just stopped, watched then wanted to go watch star wars...until I remembered what a disaster the movies become after episode 7 (although i didnt so much mind 8). Regardless I think they did an excellent job with the light sabers, effects and sounds. But ya just watching Rey train was impressive/entertaining.
Funny story about that - I saw Rey training and I shift-clicked and added her to my family and took her home. Well she retains all of her NPC scripting so she's pretty odd to the point she was guarding the living room and reporting to someone over comm link. I finally just removed her for the family. Now she appears all over Newcrest doing Rey things.
@Kerrigan After you've removed Rey from Batuu, have you been back? I'm curious if the game spawns another, I'd kind of like to kidnap her and Kylo...
@Camkat if you cheat to add Rey or Kylo to your household the game does not generate new ones. I have tested it.
@MaggieMarley RATS! Well thanks for this. I think I will still kidnap them out, just I'll do it in not my main save.
I add Rey back to family and took her back to Batuu and removed her. She stayed in Batuu
Can my Sim return back home from Batuu and go back later to continue the missions or does everything reset every time they leave?
I haven't gotten the pack yet, but I'm planning to.

I'm really enjoying the looks and names of the food and drinks from Batuu as well. My Sixam Aliens have been traveling to batuu to just get the menu and drinks to bring back for day to day.

Just finished the blog post chronicling my Sims' first visit to Battu.

Some highlights:

OMG this intro is totally worth watching! Thanks for sharing!
