  • I will add my voice to the cart button issue here as well. I understand why the button is there and can see how this might appear to be a good choice to promote DLC but it really isn't the best option for the player. One of the Sims 4's strongest features is the clear and uncluttered UI as compared to previous versions of…
  • Well, the cart didn't pulsate but the game completely crashed in less than 5 minutes of playtime - no mods/cc at all on a gaming laptop. Think it's a sign that its time to step away for awhile.
  • For anyone that is following this thread but not reading on AHQ, @Mexssim discovered that the missing social pie menu is a result of a higher than level 5 singing skill. If you cheat it down, you can then interact again with your sims and others. Hope that helps anyone that might not have seen this workaround yet. Please…
  • You were smart to wait. I wish that I had - I can't even play my save since I can't click on my sim for any interaction. The sheer amount of time that went into creating this sim and obtaining everything is heartbreaking if it can't be fixed. I can't even evaluate the horrible pulsating shopping cart feature since I can't…
  • There is a bug report open on AHQ and it seems to be affecting many players. It is game-breaking and hopefully can/will be fixed soon. Until then, that save/sim is broken and not even putting them in a new save will help.
  • Very happy to see some of these fixes on the list finally but I am still so upset that the Asian name spawning (and horse names) will continue without any end in sight. But fingers crossed these fixes are good and stay intact. The gardening and uninvited sims barging into my house has been very tough to endure but maybe we…
  • It means a higher chance at catching a rare fish if you have fishing at Level 8 or above and less chance of seaweed.
  • Nothing is ever truly free - infants were a 'free' update to the Sims 4 but they were arguably the most boring lifestate available unless you shell out $40 for the Growing Together EP so that you can have milestones, events, playmats, changing tables, more furniture and clothing, etc. But without the EP, pretty much just…
  • That's one way to do it I guess
  • They have already tested this recently. Infants were given as a base game update and they had little to nothing to add unless you also purchased the Growing Together EP. Without that pack, you have no milestones, no playmats, no changing stations, etc. So yeah, it's just a way to take a $40 pack like Seasons and break it…
  • If the game is free, then there is no revenue stream so they have to keep Sims 4 stringing along for a while. Once the first DLC starts rolling out for the new game, then you can say goodbye to Sims 4. The Sims 3 stopped when 4 was announced but the store was and is still selling content (not producing) even after 4…
  • I was thinking a new dishwasher but it may already be in the game - i just don't remember it
  • @mcrudd Thank you so much for reading along. I really am enjoying playing this - normally I have my teen sims do the same thing and chase after one of the teen aspirations which just locks you in to playing a certain way to get everything done. This is so much looser and relaxing because I don't have to try to check off…

  • Since I resurrected this thread accidentally I decided that I might as well contribute to it and make it current - been looking for a game challenge and like the relaxed nature of this one. This is my teen 'runaway' - his name is Conor McClelland. Week 1 - Day 1 Freshman Year Starting funds $0 - Ending funds $70 I am only…
  • I really like this challenge but instead of outlawing Trendi you could make it a rule that you can only price your outfits up to double their actual amount. That way you can still use the feature but you won't get crazy rich from it. Just a thought...! Plopsy is just too unpredictable - I've had my sim sell his flower…
  • I think I am doing something wrong. I have tried to tweak my settings and set it up so that only adults can marry and have children. I have valid ages only set to adults. However, after a couple of days of playing I keep getting messages that several young adult sims have gotten other adults pregnant and some even get…
  • After watching how the SAME development team left Sims 3 players high and dry with bugs and issues not addressed ("We hear you...blah, blah, blah') and now the Sims 4 with even more persistent and frustrating bugs that have been allowed to go on for YEARS ( we need save files, need input, blah, blah, blah)...... After…
  • Well, I played in a totally vanilla game and after 3 days, the game deleted about half of the sims that I put in - I had a total population of 667 (in houses and not in world) and only 1 sim protected in my households. The sims in houses were left alone but after deleting all those sims that had npc jobs assigned the game…
  • Yeah, I know - that's why I am asking - the 800 limit was a few expansion packs ago but I can't find anything more recent that says what the count might be. So far, I'm not seeing any losses but I've only started playing in this save.
  • Nope - I have that trait active and it still happens all the time - I hate to meet any sims because they barge in at the worst times day or night,
  • Yea, just what you want when you try to open your game - hopefully it gets fixed soon because this is annoying. Said it before and I will say it again - I really miss Origin.
  • I've been trying to play without most as the game is already so fractured coding-wise but there are a few essentials that I really can't seem to do without. One is LittleMsSams Gardening fix mod and the other is the No CityLiving-IslandLiving-Snowy Escape Names for NPC's. I can manage just about everything else on my own…
  • I have really enjoyed reading your blog - it's such fun and I've laughed quite a bit along the way. My favorite so far has been Joey (Generation 3). I love his little asides and I was dying when Cameron II showed up - I have a long way to go but it's so well done. I have so many questions that I would love to ask but…
  • I've been thinking about re-doing this challenge as I would like for my sim to start with getting many of the milestones for each life stage. The only tip I can think of is to make sure that you do the Villainous Valentine aspiration BEFORE the Serial Romantic one - it can't be completed without cheating if you hold off on…
  • Well, Year 4 has been completed. Year 4 This was kind of a sad, depressing year as pretty much all the original townies have passed on. The only remaining besides the vampires/immortals are the original children and they are all elders with very little time left. Lots of deaths occurred but they were not reported with NS -…
