  • There is no point in complaining about anything in the Sims 4 - if you purchased the game, you have already told EA that you love it. That is the ONLY thing that matters. You can't purchase the game and then decide the game is rubbish/lacks options/incomplete/insert 100 other reasons and decide the game will flop/fail…
  • The latest version is now available from the exchange. Creating this version was a large task as the town was clearly never designed to be used for houseboats. The back of the town never existed as the town had been built to the map edge to merge with the distant terrain, the ocean floor was a mess that had to be fixed and…
  • I am just making the last bit of play testing - but the main page has been updated with info and images. I also have this image from the play test: I should have a download ready by tomorrow latest.
  • Generally, people don't say anything when they not sure what they are talking about, but this forum seems to be flooding with people who seem to think that the only difference between 32 bit and 64 bit is the amount of memory available to the program to use. And btw (for those who are saying 8 GB is 64 bit - lol) it is…
  • I am writing this reply without actually wasting my time looking for things Sims 3 has that Sims 4 does not, or things that Sims 3 greatly out does Sims 4 in, but I would like to thank the OP for providing me a great example of the logical fallacy known as confirmation bias. This is when you take all the attributes that…
  • Excuses is all I heard - sorry but if they had made TS4 64 bit application as almost all software from big publishing companies are these days, they could of kept the open world and had the game run even better than TS4 runs now. 32 bit application is a joke and you guys are deluded if you don't think after a few…
  • Far more disturbing is the fact that the exact same bug that was present in Sims 3 is now in Sims 4 - the exorcist babies/toddlers - and what this indicates immediately is that coding from Sims 3 was COPIED and PASTED directly into Sims 4 from Sims 3. This is simply unacceptable lazy programming. You can not defend this.…
  • There are no fish spawners on the beach. Those spawners on the beach are turtle spawners which look like fish spawners in CAW if you do not have the pet spawner addon installed on your CAW. As for the junk yard - does it matter? The junk yard is an EA made one and I had no hand in placing those spawners. Overlapping…
  • People need to take a step back, cancel their pre-order and wait for the first waves of initial hyped reviews to pass, then read the reviews and decide on whether or not to purchase the game. This is my approach because the game is setting off far too many caution alarms. Their whole selling point for the game is the…
  • I am currently working on a final version of this world which will require all the expansion packs and have tons of room. I am sorry for not responding here in a long time but as I have mentioned before, I have a hectic job that often takes up 60+ hours of my week. I have actually not played Sims in months because of my…
  • Both games are 32 bit applications and therefore both games will suffer from long load times regardless of PC. Sims 4 might be slightly more optimised; however we will only know that when the game is released. The fact that Sims 4 is 32 bit is a freaking joke. We are in 2014 EA! You have no way of knowing this. The game…
  • Why do people keep saying Sims 2 had no rabbit holes? Work and school were all rabbit holes you could not even see...
  • I have taken the time to extract and upload all the Sims 2 Simlish music found in the Sims 2 base game and all the Sims 2 expansions and stuff packs! The post is found here with the links to download the music: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/0/682959.page#10917275
  • The Big Band, Classical, Country, College Rock, New Age and New Wave download is now available. Enjoy!
  • The Oldies, Reggae, RnB, Salsa, Surf and Techno Music Download is now available!
  • The Sims 2 Hip Hop, Indie, International, Jam, Jazz and Metal Music Download is now available! Pop music had its own download due to there being so much of it in Sims 2.
  • I will be making an Island Paradise Version and most likely will be the last version of this map. I will open up the island in Sunset Valley with IP community lots etc as well as add in any relevant IP lots to the mainland. Most crashes caused by this world are due to lower end PC's. As this is a large world and Sims 3 has…
  • I dont get the craze over wanting TS4? What can they possibly do to justify a new sims series that is different enough? TS1 to TS2 gave us the ability to have generations and babies etc (Major change). TS2 to TS3 gave us the open neighbourhood (Major Change). I cant think of a single thing that would be a major change from…
  • Try using NRAAS overwatch and errortrap. But are you using any other mods or cc? Using a custom SP mod in a large world can cause problems at times. What gfx card do you have?
  • I am of the camp who does not like TS2 Uni. It was ok the first few times through but after that it was extremely repetitive and boring. It got to the point were no sim went to uni, and I suspect TS3 Uni will be the same. Fun once or twice - repetitive and boring there after. I would rather they moved away from different…
  • I use a 80 days sim year (20 sims days for each season). My sims life span is 190 days, so each sim, barring unnatural deaths, can experience 2 and almost a half sim years :). I use all weather effects as my computer can handle it easily.
  • Have you tried running the game with NRAAS overwatch and errortrap? These two mods help performance a hell of a lot. This is a big world so it will have a bigger impact of performance than your standard EA made worlds.
  • The spawner does allocate the alignment of what it spawns and the area said spawn can spawn in. If you have a steep hill and place it so the spawner is just "plonked" onto the hill straight out of the tray, the spawned will spawn out of alignment with your terrain and possibly in the hill itself or in the air in some…
  • Always, always delete all your save game and world cache files after patching or adding an expansion/ stuff pack. The way this game handles cache files is horrendous and dated. You need to force it to start a new one. Deleting old cache files often fix loads of problems. If that doesn't work you need to make sure you…
  • I agree, cat parks are stupid. Nobody takes their cat to a park... I fill the town up as well before I start playing. I use twallans SP as the EA one is a pile of ***. I like my towns full, and the EA one will keep the towns population extremely low which leads to horribly quiet worlds... :( I have always said EA need to…
  • I don't like the supernatural element in the game as well. There should be no reason the world will not work without supernatural as I don't believe I placed anything supernatural, however I can't be certain. Give it a try and let me know.
  • Sims 3 is a 32 bit application which means it cannot recognise or utilise more than 4gb. The only difference that will occur beyond 4gb is the sims 3 won't have to share the ram with the OS or any other background operation running. The amount of game performance increase seen beyond 4gb ram on a 64 bit OS is negligable.…
  • Glad you enjoy it mate. My last save game with the older version of this world went to the 8th generation (190 sims day life spans), was awesome. But then the need to make changes or update the world comes and you have no choice but to start again. Though sometimes it is nice to start again and see how different everything…
  • The worlds are indeed working as normal again, but I am sure EA will find some way of messing something up as always. They screw up so often you begin to wonder whether they have a dedicated team assigned to actually making bugs and errors in the game.
