  • <3 Fantastic job as always!!! I love it. Thank you for sharing this with us. I love your setting, and they creative way you use content. I find your videos inspiring. True. o:) I promise.
  • :) Congratulations Lady Green Eyes! Great news. <3 May I add, no matter what other games we play -- I am currently spending countless hours in Elder Scrolls online, waiting on my Special Edition of the Witcher 3, and even have Fallout 4 on Pre-order,-- but a day rarely goes by without at least an hour or two in my…
  • :) Hello all, I'm still playing in Rflong7's version of Bridgeport. Love it because it has so much space for me to do my favourite thing, recreate homes I see in movies and television shows. I could never stop playing Sims 3 because of all the wonderful content we have. It is why I love to gift content when I can, so…
  • :) Hello all. With the info posted about the bills and mail boxes:--- heads up guys. Even if you have the no bills ever perk, DO NOT FORGET to empty your mail box before = MOVING, GOING TO UNI, ON HOLIDAY, RETURNING FROM UNI/HOLIDAY ---- in fact go nowhere without always checking the mail box. :s That is how you get the…
  • :) I think that we just pick up too many cookies to and fro across, so we need to clean out.
  • :) It was messed up for me, showing Persona not found. Fell back on my most loved <3 Piriform cleaner, just logged back in, and :blush: everything back to normal.
  • <3 Exactly what I always recommend. Sensible choices in setting the values - SP off, aging off, memories disabled, all life states disabled, single phase moon, and even not having the Festival lot unless you choose to use it will make a huge difference to how the game performs on older/ less powerful rigs. - Not having…
  • <3 Yay! so happy for all of you! Woo! :o I got the free green button on "Fashionable Fitness", I didn't even know about that set??? It claims more game play -- anyone got any info on that?
  • :s Because I'm still locked out of gifting, I was playing marathon sessions of ESO. [average session 10 + hours] B) The good side of that is that I've got to Veteran level 6, and moved on to the Cadwell's Gold part of the quests. :D Pretty cool, because now I can fish for trophy fish right across all the Elderscrolls game…
  • <3 Good morning! :D Great to see all the fun. :s Yes, you often get the 'reached the gifting limit', and even the " you can't buy anymore points due to security limits" After they actually locked my buying of points a few months back and it took forever on "chat' to get it sorted I learned that it is best not to buy more…
  • :D Great that you have your work around, but the Mod and cheat free game I play suits me! I figured out the lots to help my dolls, and cheats have always made me bored to death with games in the past, so avoid them with a passion other than for building. "cheating" by having the lots to help still doesn't make it too easy…
  • :s Just some info for those who love gardening. The grow station is a bit of a nightmare, as in having it in the game does a lot to cause lag. [ :\ plus, for me, it turns the fun of gardening into an unending chore, even with Master Gardeners who no longer have to weed] There are so many things that need 'updating' with…
  • :) @igazor, I agree about the fast metabolism perk, that seems how it works in my games too. :D no instant chubbies after eating too much. I am mod free so can't comment on that, but....will attest to how the game behaves differently when cheats are enabled. I tested that hospital visit extensively with my dolls. My…
  • :) Firstly, any body changes you make using a cheat, which is of course the only way to do it if you don't have the choice of taking them to the hospital for plastic surgery will NOT stick. Not only that, but if cheats are enabled, and you take the Sims to the hospital for the expensive body modification, the next day they…
  • <3 Great fun to see how much closer you are all getting!
  • :D It is never too soon or too late to install it, it is just so good for general PC 'hygiene'. We accumulate a ton of stuff just visiting the site, the internet and forums.
  • Just Google Piriform CCcleaner, it will bring up the site. choose to take the free version for home use. It offers different sites that you can download it from, I always download it from the official Piriform site. It is a small download, and easy to install following instructions. It offers you updates as they become…
  • <3 Now...about adding content to the game. Yes, it can be done with the launcher either open or closed. My method is still to open EA games= Sims 3 = downloads, and copy paste whatever I want to install into that folder, then open the launcher and install from there. I seldom do the double click on the item to install it,…
  • <3 Good morning all. :D Some general clarification as requested. THERE IS NO WAY TO REMOVE UNWANTED SIMS WITHOUT TRASHING YOUR GAME. Sorry for shouting, but that is really, REALLY, important. As is DO NOT ADD ANY NEW LOTS TO YOUR GAME. Only re purpose the lots already placed, new lots, even ONE teeny tiny little 10 x 10…
  • :s Seriously? It edited P e a c o c k to read plum?
  • <3 Great to see you all having joy and success. Thought I'd share why CAS and CASt are never a problem for me and why I have no problems with it, Mod free. Firstly, remember that all the Ep's, stuff packs, and even the base game have a ton of textures and patterns. Then the store goodies come along with their selection,…
  • <3 Just a reminder to you all, there are awesome rewards for uploading memories. Remember you don't have to have memories enabled to do that, custom memories count too! There is a fabulous outfit for work outs from uploading memories. Perfect for the ballet barre. If you visit the old forums, check out the "Everything free…
  • :o May I add that I love Semantics, and find it fun to figure out in movies etc who is Canadian, American, Australian. Or a Kiwi, from Texas, Kansas, the Southern States. I am hopeless with the Spanish speaking people of course, as I can speak no Spanish, but having German speaking friends, can sometimes tell the general…
  • <3 Hello all, happy to see everyone's successes. <3 @Laynielouxu That's fun. Here in SA we have a bit of a giggle at what Hollywood consider a South African accent. It is sometimes fairly close to an Afrikaans person speaking English, but usually English speaking South African people are often asked by visitors which part…
  • <3 Hi guys! Here in sunny South Africa we also say we are 'shattered' when we're over extended physically or emotionally. :) [like after a marathon 10 hours straight of playing Skyrim or another intense game >:) ] :s That is definitely shattering! Just why I do that sometimes escapes me. I remember pulling an all nighter…
  • <3 Hello all. Some clarity on what I said. I have a 'Master Launcher' with all content installed. Each time I start a game, in a 'clean'/new launcher, I copy that into the new launcher, and I start in whichever world I choose to play. Before I play my chosen world I do a quick edit to it from edit town. Always better to do…
  • :) Now....... About how the game performs: I play completely Cheat and Mod free. Extensive tests showed that having cheats enabled messed up the game. I use cheats for editing towns and building and adding to existing lots. Just two simple examples of what happened when I forgot to disable cheats after coming back to game…
  • <3 Hello all. I am a complete ignoramus when it comes to software. I had a friend on the phone helping me learn how to make desk top folders, and how to copy and paste, and cut and paste. True. :'( Then I learned how to do the "control A" to light up a whole row to copy and paste. Fortunately my base game and EP's + Stuff…
  • <3 I do hope you are all remembering to actually play our magical game! No fun owning the store items if we don't use them, right?
  • :o Oh my goodness!!! I thought that all the posts from the 'old forum' were obsolete!!! <3 Thank you @SimGuruBChick for replying to this post, and the information. Maybe some people will get lucky with that now. I will try again too, but up until the time that I stopped posting and updating [thinking the thread died with…
