  • Cinebar, I forgot to add that I also use Game Booster 3.4 (free at download.cnet.com) when I play Sims. I didn't notice a huge difference, but my game did seem a little quicker when I started using it. Cheers!
  • ! I FOUND THEM ! I looked through all the suggested eyes, but no luck. However, I did find that the closest to what I had before were called "jewel eyes". So I did a search on The Exchange, using jewel eyes, and found a Sim who had those eyes and very little other CC. I downloaded her, AND I HAVE MY EYES BACK - YAY. :) :)…
  • Not quite. With the ones I had, you could also adjust the color of the white part of the eyes. I used that to make some really cool alien-type Sims, with black eyeballs and white irises. I think they were pretty popular modded eyes, as I remember in my CAS there was a name printed under the picture. I just can't recall…
  • If you don't want to use mods, you might try playing in small custom worlds/islands. I started doing this last year and I don't think I'll ever go back. They load and play SO quickly! I'd recommend any of rflong7's worlds - they are very well-done and beautiful. She has very small islands where you place everything…
  • I never liked Agnes Crumplebottom. Any time I played in Sunset Valley, I used her to raise my Sims' unwanted children. For example, if my Sims had unexpected triplets, one baby would be moved to Agnes' house. Once or twice Agnes ended up with five or six toddlers to raise. :mrgreen: I love Seema from Midnight Hollow, and…
  • I don't open multiple browsers, but I refresh a lot and also go to different store options (sale, premium, buy/build, etc.) and even down to picking an item. I also close out of IE and reopen. The past two days I have gotten almost 200 points - no kidding! In fact, the gift point box kept popping up so much that I spent…
  • I own most of the worlds, but now play on a custom island. However, I use items from all the worlds so I don't feel guilty not playing in them. I also put some of the townies in my bin that I found appealing (like Seema from Midnight Hollow) and play them regularly. I also have purchased a lot of store items - mainly ones…
  • Wow, tough question! Are you talking about EPs, worlds and premium items that have been offered in the last year? Resorts, stores, diving in the ocean, hot air balloons, dragons, archery, violins, traveling to the future, robots...EA offered us a TON of fun this past year. :) And I only touched on the new stuff that popped…

  • I really enjoy your posts, Branthor - it reminds me of how much fun it is when you're experiencing everything for the first time. So your next step is BABIES! Hope you're prepared for that! :mrgreen:
  • @kati77 - Oh, I hope mine doesn't lose her prettiness! So far I've been in this game about two Sim weeks, and she still has her nice features. I was letting her run around in werewolf form, until she got pregnant by the witch next door. :mrgreen: @palkiagmh - yours is very pretty! It really helps to change the nose,…
  • When I posted previously, it didn't seem worth the hunt. However, today I was able to click on the free points box three times fairly quickly just by refreshing the page and then looking at another buy item. The box popped up and worked each time. So 15 points - yay! So my new method will be to check some buy items…
  • I found the first one by accident, while looking at an individual sale item. After that, it was a time-wasting hunt to try and find them for only 5 points each. Meh...I liked the old system better. Just my opinion. If some are happy with it, then I'm happy for them! :)
  • Awww, this is so cute! Hope ya'll enjoy playing together. Just don't play your Simselves and give either or both the Flirty trait - that could cause problems. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

  • YES!!! I spent a TON of time trying to get offspring who could use chopsticks like their dad. A cheat would be fantastic!
  • I think you might need Supernatural to permanently change the skin color (just guessing). Sorry!
  • Genies are my favorite! And don't forget, they go everywhere super fast. This is Marcel, the genie I play the most. I hate blue skin, so none of my genies have it.
  • I always found the easiest way to kill them was drowning. Build a pool with a fence around except for a few squares. Once they're in it, go to edit/build mode and complete the fence so they're trapped. Drowning occurs fairly quickly, so they don't have time to disappear. Of course, if you're wanting a pink (starved) ghost…
  • I had this happen to one of my own Sims that I placed in town as an extra resident. The Sim I was playing went to the park, and here comes a very overweight Sim wearing clothes I recognized. It took me a minute to realize it was my own Sim creation. I changed households and took him to the gym and made him run his rear off…
  • Welcome Brathnor! I'm an oldER retired Simmer, too. Sometimes the search function is unwieldy and you get so many pages of threads to wade through, so ask away! I have found that most who post here are super nice, friendly and helpful. Not to mention creative and funny!! For me the hardest part in learning Sims was just…
  • Funny thread spikepa! The first year or so that I played Sims 3 I was obsessed with ghosts and killed many, many Sims (even children). I loved to have big parties and lock all the guests in the back yard until they starved. :mrgreen: I also did "cruel" things, like put one toilet outside with two or more Sims on the lot.…
  • My all-time favorite game was when I discovered you could kidnap butlers. On your home lot, you place some musical instruments in the front yard. Then you change households to a townie family, and have them hire a butler. Next, take one of the household over to play a musical instrument, then move the cursor back and ask…
  • I don't do challenges, so have no qualms about cheating. For me, cheating has made MY games much more fun. I played for years without even learning the cheat codes, but once I did there has been no turning back. I like having unlimited funds to build, landscape and decorate houses exactly the way I want. I always start…
  • If you have Ambitions, I had a ton of fun with two professions for Evil Sims - architect and stylist. My Evil architect would make the most horrendous changes to his clients' homes. He would fulfill the requirements, but decorate with strange objects and garish wall colors, etc. My Evil stylist put every client in a hot…
  • W.O.W. That is just spectacular, snowplow. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: I can see where all your lottery winnings are going. :wink:
  • I love indoor pools! I was crazy enough to build an indoor jumping course for my unicorn. It was fun to watch him and my Sim run through the kitchen between jumps. :mrgreen: I also used to build big two-story atriums. I would leave one wall missing, and put a small pond, trees, rocks, flowers, etc. inside it. When I was…
  • I think all of us posting have well-thought-out plans for when we finally get that winning lottery ticket... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Here's a few more: A bomb shelter under the basement A big party room you could theme in different ways, like for a Christmas gift-giving party, kid's birthday, engagement party, etc. A turret…
  • A library with a secret bookcase/door to a basement laboratory. Media room Nursery with adjacent play room and nanny's quarters Butler's quarters Room off the kitchen - pantry on one side, coffee bar on the other Morning room (cafe table/chairs, lots of greenery and large windows) Teen hang-out room Exercise/gym room HUGE…
  • The last EP you install is the disk you will use to start the game. Once IN the game, you should have all the features & items of all the EPs you have installed. At the opening menu, once you select "New Game", you should see a list on the right of all the towns/worlds available. If you don't see the worlds you installed,…
