    The catacombs are in the mausoleum in the graveyard. You can explore the catacombs when you enter the mausoleum, sometimes you can find interesting items.

    how do you get hairstyles thats not on the game??? not thru the store like the exchange. everytime i download a sim with a cute hairstyle it doesn't show up in the game.

    they are Custom Content, and not made by Maxis. Right now they are beta testing [to see if they cause problems or not]. I haven't hear any negative feedback on them so far.

    You can get hair at peggys [my link isn't working, but I'm sure someone will post it] or a Mod The Sims: http://www.modthesims.info/browse.php?gs=2

    Hope that helps.

    As always, my blog that condenses all the tips and tricks from this thread is here: http://www.thesims3.com/mypage/Schweighsr Read it if you don't want to read all 150+ pages.

    Did you know your sims can't burn to death!!!ahhh i tryed twice they just stand in the fire and scream its ******* me off i want a red ghost grrrrr.

    here's how I killed my sim kid in a fire,, hope it helps..

    I sent "torch" into the kitchen with her mom who did not know how to cook. Then when mom was in the middle of cooking it I had her leave the room. Leaving the food unattended.
    Then I removed the door. It took four tries.. but finally "Torch" turned into a really cool ghost!

    ( an outer wall seems to work best. Otherwise my ghost's continued to put the fire out through the wall!)


    anyone else have another idea??

    Some Sims love to hang out at the cemetery. Why not build a community center over the graves to give you a place? My Sims love it! Especially my ghosts!

    I did not read all 154 pages of this forum. (Who would!?) But I have to say the mysterious moving gnomes are my favorite! You can get them fishing, smelting mettle, or being in the criminal carrer. A sim in my legacy reached the top of the criminal track and ended up getting two. They loved to hang out in the garden and change positions. One kept sitting in my kitchen staring at the dinning table haha. I heard they turn on radios, and watch TV, etc. So much fun, LOVE the sims3!

    Here is a Did You Know, for all of you.
    Did You Know - That ALL of the Store Items are Leaked out?
    That means you better get them for FREE while you can. ;)

    You can drag patterns when in CAS. I wish I had found out about this sooner. I am probably the only person who didn't know that. :oops:

    NO WAY :roll:

    The fact that you have posted your stupid pics in about a gazillion threads and you have started up your own really annoying one gave me no clue.

    -If you hold the shift key while using the camera controls, it makes them move faster. ie: press shift while zooming in and out, press shift while scrolling the camera.

    -If you're having trouble getting the right angle for a photo/painting, press and hold the right mouse button and move the mouse. It gives you more precise control over the camera.

    Thanks for this tip. I take a lot of screen shots of the houses I build and it has been troublesome controlling the camera angle.

    You don't HAVE to buy recipes to get some new recipes. If your sim or another sim that they talk to is a natural cook, they can trade cooking secrets, and get a recipe for free. It's especially a good way to get ambrosia. Also, if neither sim is a natural cook and they've been talking about cooking for a bit (option after a meal), they could still get a free recipe. You can also get new recipes from the cooking channel.

    I've read most of this thread. I just learned something new - an easy way to sell items in your inventory.

    Selling Fish: If you're trying to keep the best ones, drag the first ones out of the group (still in inventory... I drag my perfect fish to the top). Notice the upper left corner of each inventory item is blue. Click and drag from here and you can sell all of that item.

    Example: I have 20 tuna. I drag the first one to the top to keep it. Then I click & drag the remaining 19 all at once to sell.

    MUCH faster!
