  • Are you on Windows 10? Securom causes a lot of problems with the game for those on that version of Windows. Removing securom with the tutorial I posted might help even if you're not on Windows 10. I'm not sure if the other software I linked would have any effect on game crashes, but it's still recommended to use it since…
  • I'm glad to hear you finally got the game! :) By the way, the game is a bit old now so it might have issues with modern hardware. These might be useful to you: Software to make the game works with modern Graphic Cards: Here If you're on Windows 10, you'll need this fix: Here
  • Phone representatives are very unhelpful so I'm not surprised it didn't work. Your best bet is to try again with live chat. Make sure that you disable your ad-blocker (if you have one) and that you don't initiate a live-chat session from a direct link you find on google, those never work. Try clearing your browser…
  • Is it just me or it looks like they took out a few things that could've been in the Parenthood pack then put them into a Stuff Pack just so they would have something to announce in the quarterly teaser?
  • Yeah I've noticed that they take a very long time cancelling actions. Most of the time they just go as far as starting the queued cancelled action, no matter how far is it, before cancelling it. Like when cancelling a prepare meal action, they will sometimes go to the fridge, get the ingredients out, then cancel it. Same…
  • @samemie is this the issue you're referring to? forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/919289/player-assigned-tasks-need-more-weight-than-sim-assigned-tasks I'm not sure if it's what you're talking about but either ways, it seems to be a major problem. I feel like I'm constantly fighting with my sims to make them do what I…
  • I'm not even sure if I should keep hoping at this point. We are taking about the same company that released The Sims 3. The game that, despite being terrible fun, had to rely on mods to be "playable". And playable is a big word in that case. I'm sure you all remember Island Paradise, the EP with a world so laggy, even…
  • I have an average gaming desktop PC that meets the recommended requirements for TS4 and I'd say that both games run like crap in different aspects. For some, it's easier to put up with TS3. I had reinstalled it recently and it was way more playable than I remembered despite still being a mess. I personally cannot put up…
  • It's with awesomemod only. It's very minor so I guess I'll try to get used to it, I'm just glad I could finally try it out. I was mostly interested in the bug fixes and the lighter story progression included in it. It seems decent so far, but I already find myself missing nraas story progression with all the control I had…
  • @igazor thank you so much! :smile: I guess I'm finally gonna try it. Is there something that can be done about the game minimizing at startup? I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I've even tried with a clean folder and tweaked my graphics settings and it just keeps doing it. The game seems to start normally once…
  • Phew, I'm glad I deleted this plum app a long time ago. I closed my account when their updated privacy policy sparked outrage back in 2015. Really, an app made for mostly sending nudes and ugly selfies shouldn't be asking access to that much personal information. Thank you for posting this heads up about this new update, I…
  • I'm a French speaker from Quebec. :)
  • In TS2, the policemen and firefighters arrived in their respective vehicle, on the road right in front of the house. I can't really see that happening in Windenburg, Uptown, the fashion district, etc. I guess they can make them come without their vehicle, but then I don't understand why they wouldn't have been implemented…
  • I fire up my game whenever a patch is released to see if the performance issues have been fixed. I get disappointed everytime. The Sims 4 has come a long way since release. It now seems to have enough content to satisfy a broader audience. That's a good thing, the game's always been criticized for its lack of gameplay.…
  • I'm laughing so hard and I don't even know why
  • Jeez what's going on here? @DeservedCriticism made a thread pointing out a flaw the game has. This flaw being that player-assigned tasks don't have much priority over autonomous tasks, which causes the game to often cancel tasks that the player initiated to instead do autonomous tasks. Previous Sims games didn't have this…
  • Bookmarking this thread because those builds are absolutely gorgeous. <3
  • This pack isn't really my cup of tea since I'm not a family player so I won't be getting it, but I'm also really happy about it because the game was always terribly lacking on family play. This is definitely a pack that a lot of players asked for and they listened. There are so many playstyles in a life simulation game,…
  • While this pack idea doesn't personally interest me, I'm disappointed to see how some of you reacted to this thread. Video games come in all genres; some more happy, some more dark. I don't doubt that being homeless must be a degrading experience. The Sims is a life simulation game. Homelessness is real, and while the…

  • That's strange, I just checked in my game and those exact same walls are fine. I'm on a new save so maybe that's why. I just experimented a bit and turns out that pushing the exterior walls inside causes them to turn to drywall. There's no way to fix it beside undoing changes. Has this issue been reported before?
  • @maxmusicstereo I sent your files to SimQARobo. :) Since it's the weekend, they might not see it until Monday. At the moment, they seem to be collecting save files to properly investigate the problem and eventually patch it if they can. I don't think they'll provide feedback about that issue until it's resolved.
  • @maxmusicstereo Since you're a new member, you might not be able to send messages to other members. Here's what you can do instead: - Zip the requested files (your save folder, config.log, options.ini) with winrar or 7zip - Upload the archive to a file-hosting website. (google drive, Onedrive, Dropbox, Mega, etc) - Paste…
  • @maxmusicstereo SimQARobo replied earlier in this thread too asking for our saves folder and additional details. It would help them investigate the problem. :)
  • You nailed it. The point isn't whether Sims 3 did it worse or not; it's that Sims 4 does the same thing in a different way. Most of us have spent hundreds or thousands of hours playing this game. Sure, if some people like to see it as paying a few cents per hour of gameplay it looks cheap. But you're not "renting" the game…
  • The problem isn't "paying 10$ for a butler" or that City Living should include the same stuff as Late Night. It's the fact that they scattered these premium items on purpose in separate 10$ stuff packs with a few items for maximum profit. I don't see how putting some of them in the EP would require losing out on another…
  • Not at all. I never purchased a Sims 3 Stuff Pack. They didn't add new gameplay so I never felt the need to buy any of them.
  • That's true, it's indeed cheaper, but only if you just want those small specific features. If you want the whole experience, you end up paying much more. To get the equivalent of late night, you end up paying for an EP, a GP and 2 SPs. That's 80$. And the EP itself has nowhere near the amount of content that Late Night…
  • The store was complete robbery to begin with. I was glad to see that it was gone in TS4. I was actually talking about pack contents. For example: 20$ vampires, 10$ bowling, 10$ Butler, 10$ hot tubs, 10$ Laundry, etc Late night alone had butlers, vampires and hot tubs. The whole EP had much more content than city living.…
