  • I came up with a different solution to this problem, since I also couldn't figure out how to deal with the conflict. Figure I'll post it here in case anyone else is struggling with it. I had the dad date around for a little bit, while he ran the shop and burglarized local houses and art galleries/museums. When he'd made…
  • The problem with autonomous knitting was that, instead of finishing any of the knitting projects they'd already started, Sims would instead buy more yarn and start a brand new project, which they would then immediately abandon the next time they got the urge to knit something. Basically, they'd constantly spend money on…
  • I had to stop inviting Paka'a Uha over because they pranked the toilet every single time. I'm not positive, but I think this is related to the goofball trait. I'm currently playing with a clumsy Sim. She randomly slips/stumbles (like other people have noted), and I once got a pop-up letting me know that her clumsy fingers…
  • Thanks, I was wondering what that was all about! I don't own any of the kits, but I noticed a week or two ago that one of my Sims had that option for the chess set. (Turns out that polishing a chess set just means resetting the pieces for a new game.) I haven't played with a neat Sim since the patch - I wonder if they'll…
  • Does anyone know of a mod that tweaks the new SE lifestyles? I’ve only had the pack for a few days, and am already having problems with the “close-knit” lifestyle. My sim is close-knit because she was only friends with her husband, daughter, and one friend. Then she and her husband had twins, and now she’s a complete…
  • My hope is that they do the small and large/cauliflower/mashedpotatoes afros, the long braids, and this thing. This is so true. I'm in the process of giving makeovers to all the premades - no plastic surgery, but just updating their styles and fixing their skintones when they've been whitewashed a bit. (It started when I…
  • None of that really explains why we can't have a new lot type for user-created apartments. No, they wouldn't be able to be in a skyscraper, but I could live with that. I just want to be able to make tiny house villages, townhouses, and small apartment buildings like I was able to do in TS2. We had building parameters in…
  • Windenberg reminds me a lot of Leavenworth, WA, which is again just a few hours from me. And a local 'village' (actually a neighbourhood in a nearby suburb) could totally pass for Brindleton Bay. I realize that this is somewhat unique to the part of the world I live in, and I'm not suggesting that everyone else has the…
  • I guess it doesn't seem that weird to me because I live near the ocean but if I drive for a few hours in one direction I'm in the snowy mountains, four hours in another direction and I'm in a semi-arid desert, two hours in a third direction and I'm at my favourite lake in the middle of the woods... The only Sim-world…
  • Salim Benali and his wife freaking out because their girlfriend just went into labour with Salim's twins. (This playthrough got complicated on me.)
  • Trick 3 works even if you don't bulldoze the lot. You can just save the lot to your library then click the popup that asks if you want to view it (I can't remember exactly what it says) then hit the download button and choose place unfurnished. I don't know exactly how much time this will save, but it cuts out a couple of…
  • I'd be so bored if I was stuck in the same world all the time! I love to be able to travel around and move houses from one world to another. Besides, a lot of the worlds feel like the suburbs of San Myshuno, or like nearby towns, so it makes sense to me that they'd be accessible. I do kind of wish Sulani was a vacation…
  • Pretty much all of the romantic animations. The makeout ones are the worst. (They're so awkward!) But I feel like we don't have any animations that make it seem like the Sims are actually into each other. Even when they're laying in bed after woohoo, there's always a healthy 18" space between them, like my brother and I…
  • They'd also have to either severely limit what we can do in the game or let it be be overrun by twelve-year-olds causing as much mayhem as possible all the time because they think it's funny. (I'd have edited this onto my original post, but I'm still too "new" apparently and the forum won't let me do that.)
  • I was messing around in CAS to get an idea of what some MCCC-generated couples' kids will look like. (I do this quite a lot so that my Sims can befriend the couple who'll tend to have interesting offspring - keeps my Legacies from getting too generic-looking.) For some reason I can't remember now, I decided to generate a…
  • 1. Desiderata Valley (TS2) maybe? I live in a quiet suburb near the mountains and ocean. 2. San Myshuno: Spice District. It reminds me a tiny bit of my old neighbourhood in Montreal, with the street sales and all the yummy food. Sometimes playing there makes me feel a bit homesick.
  • I'm kind of a mix of "real life family play," "Soap Opera/Melodrama/Stories type things" and "go with the flow." Real-life family play is usually my Legacies. Sometimes, specific challenge rules make them go in a certain direction, but for the most part, the goal is to get a job, have kids, repeat. The go-with-the-flow is…
  • If it's limited to a sort of community hub, in a self-contained online world that we can avoid if we want to, I'd be fine with that. It could also be fun to have a feature where we can invite other players to join Sims at one of our houses or on an outing. (I'd only ever do this with my brother, but since we don't get to…
  • Does Kat Jenkins count? She's a Maxis Sim, but you have to download her from the gallery - she's not in the game. She seems really fun, and I think we'd totally get along if she was real. Aside from her, younger-me would probably spend a lot of time 'blowing bubbles' with Salim Benali, and now-me would pack up my knitting…
  • #1 feels more balanced to me - #2 feels cluttered/cramped/something, and the spandrels just hanging out there doing nothing feel funny to me. I'd probably like it better if they had a roof over them (could be independent of the main roof) and possibly if the 2nd floor walls were slightly taller so the windows and columns…
  • > @lsnishi said: > sorry @Amuni50, it must be an entry of @Elocine54 then! I remember both of your having extraordinary entries. > > Here's the correct household with link: > https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/951E2681EEFC11EA8056C2DBEBA66C98 Aww, that's lovely. Thanks for finding the link! This is my…
  • I feel the exact same way about edible art, and I'm struggling to see how carving a watermelon or decorating a cake or whatever would be less boring than knitting. Granted, I'm biased since I've been wanting knitting in the game for about 15 years.
  • Happy Haunts needs to be a game pack, not just a stuff pack, in my opinion. I was fine with the "Arts & Crafts" theme being just knitting because a) we already have painting, woodworking, flower arranging, candlemaking, and photography and b) The Sims has been teasing us with knitting ever since they first introduced Mrs.…
  • > @Pamtastic72 said: > This is what you have to compete against in the build category, complete spam. All but one of these is submitted by the same user. It's all the same exact build and then it looks like someone else either had the same idea, or copied and submitted. It looks like only three of those have been submitted…
  • Yeah, I noticed that last night and I find it so frustrating since makes the whole community competition aspect completely pointless. Not because I think the generic, rule-breaking Sims are going to win (I'm sure they'll get disqualified once submissions end), but because the Spark'd gallery is so flooded with them that…
  • How about some love Melissa and Chris Roomies from TS1? (Apparently, I don't have enough "points" to post pictures properly, so you'll have to copy/paste the links if you want to see them.) https://i.imgur.com/8L5d5uV.png I'm pretty sure they were the first household I played after the Newbie tutorial, and I ended up…
  • I love that you're asking these questions! As someone who's been knitting (and crocheting, but I'm mostly just going to say knitting because it's faster and that's the theme of the pack) almost as long as I've been playing The Sims, and who's always wanted my Sims to be able to knit like I do since TS2 (Freetime came sooo…
