    As a free kit ?

    Ah, so that's how they're going to entice us Mac players to switch as quickly as possible. Well played...

    Double effects, it's also a gift to the one who never play to The Sims 4 before, this offer target all EA App users if I'm not wrong.

    You must be referring to the EA App. I recommend the Blooming Rooms kit.

    @GalacticGal I have the Blooming Rooms kit- It's a good one! It's nice they are giving it for free to those who don't have it yet.

    ah why is it always the one kit I'm not mega interested in :lol: oh well maybe I'll end up using it tho I had similar sentiments about desert one and I use it a lot actually

    and I'm happy for those of us who were thinking of buying the kit that its free

    or those of us who get builds from gallery and this is one of the trillion kits that would disappear did they not have it :lol:

    I don't know why console is not included though I always find it kind of strange :/

    and EA App well I have not had many major disasters with myself and I think they want to get everyone on same app but uh it has its flaws not gonna lie

    I was contemplating on getting this kit a few days ago (before the cart appeared in my game) not the top of my list but looks cute.

    Well, it's unusual to announce a free content but still no date one month later.

    Were I a betting man, I would assume that the Blooming Rooms giveaway would start the same day EA app for Mac finishes its worldwide rollout.

    This isn't confirmation, just my running theory.

    totally pushed on to EA app. I was trying to log into Origins and this window showed up and it blocked all other functions but to continue on. Even my browser in the back would not let me escape. I tried to find every other escape but it just continued to install ea. Did this happen to any other Mac user?

    It was announced in March that the EA App was starting to roll out for Mac users.

    We are thrilled to share that over the next few weeks, the EA app will officially replace Origin as our primary Mac platform

    I got his message which makes me believe it's missing purchased packs
  • simgirl1010simgirl1010 Posts: 36,556 Member
    Could it be CC?
  • LeucosiaXLeucosiaX Posts: 1,957 Member
    @simgirl1010 I tried to build that lot cc free but I can't be 100% sure. Sometimes something slips in under the radar. I don't usually get they replaced it with something else for cc though. I will double check again, but it looks like all the packs I purchased are there. Hoping it's just that bug that has been plaguing us but this message was slightly different. Maybe just ea's way of putting it.

    So far the switch has been smooth for me.

    @LeucosiaX I had those messages all the time with Origin. I would put my money on missing or bad CC.
  • BluegayleBluegayle Posts: 4,256 Member
    I've got that message and nothing has been missing and I don't use any CC.

    Same here. I have gotten that message a few times on builds without CC. I never figured out what went missing.

    I had to make the switch to the EA app a few weeks ago and despite all my apprehension it’s been absolutely fine and very smooth. None of my packs or content for TS3 or TS4 has gone missing.

    I’ve had similar messages to that one on and off in the past but I’ve never discovered anything actually missing.

    Yeah, ever since I switched to the EA app, I've noticed that my cc-free builds are flagged as modded when I save them to my library. In order to save a build as unmodded, I have to disable mods, log out, log in, save the build (when I go into the lot, it says items have been removed, even though there's nothing missing), then enable mods, log out, and log back in again.

    This issue has been reported many times on AHQ, but nothing's been done about it.

    There are a few threads on this issue that are similar, but I think this is the most relevant one for us: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Mods-CC-Issues/my-builds-are-being-flagged-as-modded-despite-no-mods-or-CC/m-p/11536137/highlight/true. I've just added a comment about my own issue.
