  • So... I can't send all my sims' kids to university at the same time without having some of them fail randomly because I'm not playing them? I rotate between about twenty families and I was really looking forward to seeing all the former childhood friends and high school sweethearts running around doing their own thing…
  • Yes, she was doing the distinguished Biology degree at Foxbury. The other two were doing distinguished degrees as well, though, and they passed with flying colors. I guess the other commenters are right that the grade is tied more to leveling the skill; I distinctly remember that the other two leveled up their skills…
  • Going to classes seems to be a bit buggy at the moment. My sims rarely miss class because they always go to class early. I get a pop-up message saying that class starts in one hour and then my sims automatically get "Go To Class Early" in their interaction queue. My sister never got that message in her save and her sims…
  • One of my sims also failed her elective. She handed in her term paper on time, and the quality of the paper was Outstanding. It was the Wellness elective and my sim's Wellness skill was level 6, so I have no idea how high it would have to be for her to get a good grade. It was her first term at university, so it's not like…
  • It seems like, just as with Realm of Magic, the game will pull random premades to fill some roles. I don't know if the devs made it this way because people complained that the game always makes too many random new sims, or if it's a bug. I'm playing in a completely new world and so far, Mortimer Goth, Nancy Landgraab,…
  • I'm a rotational player too, and this happens to me every time I switch households with actors in them. What works for me is to have the actor use Cancel Gig on the phone and then check auditions. You have to start over with a new gig, but at least your sims can then go to work and get promoted.
  • Ts2, TS3, Ts4... I've literally never made it past generation three! :(
  • I own everything except My First Pet Stuff.
  • Rinvalee on tumblr has a lot of cool poses. I'm normally pretty picky when it comes to poses, but I've downloaded pretty much all of theirs.
  • Unfortunately, it looks like the game "needs" a certain amount of celebrities, so it will spawn random ones even if you have fame turned off. The Starlight Accolades happened in my game yesterday, and the game spawned new ones continuously during the ceremony. I noticed the game also spawned new celebrities when my sim was…
  • Yeah, same here. Diego Lobo went to the sauna to Woohoo with one of my sims, and suddenly my sim was wearing a hat along with his towel. I know I didn't give him that hat for any of his outfit categories, so it's just the game deciding to randomize things again. Also, the game completely refuses to remember the umbrellas I…
  • Hahaha, are you serious???
  • I use them when it makes sense for the lot. So the internet café next to the high school is a Teen Hangout, the house with the enormous kitchen gets the Chef's Kitchen trait, the family home in the richer neighborhood has Good Schools, etc.
  • I had a bowling alley/arcade in Magnolia Promenade with the Teen Hangout trait and a lot of teenaged sims showed up. Most of my sims' high school friends were there and they did go into the building to play video games and have drinks. The same thing happened to an internet café with the same trait. Maybe I just got lucky?
  • I'm waiting to buy the expansion pack until the worst bugs have been fixed and most mods have been updated.
  • Um, why? Then why are you posting on page 7 & 8?
  • They should. I put a mouse hole in the Vatore home and their cat would sit in front of it waiting for the mouse, then when the mouse came out the cat tried to catch it. I don't know if they'll interact with the roaches, though.
  • My sims refuse to finish reading books even when I direct them to do it. Usually when I tell a sim to do something, they'll keep doing it until the action is finished or I tell them to stop. But regardless of traits or moods, if I tell them to read a book I have to watch them like a hawk to make sure they don't cancel the…
  • They're still in my game, but they're in a townie household under some Japanese name. No idea how that happened; I certainly didn't do it. They never show up at the Von Haunt Estate, but if I go to Manage Worlds I often see their household renting a vacation home when my sims are in Granite Falls or Selvadorada. I guess…
  • The Sims 4 doesn't have any kind of story progression, so NPCs won't autonomously move into houses or get married, etc. You can use a mod like MC Command Center for this, if you want, but the game won't ever do it by itself.
  • I bulldozed all the cabins in Granite Falls and replaced them with over-the-top luxury mansions from the Gallery. They have underground bowling alleys, gigantic swimming pools, hot tubs and saunas, rooftop gyms... basically, a lot of stuff that I don't necessarily want to put in my sims' regular houses. My nature-loving…
  • Festivals in my game will overlap even if I don't visit them. I sent my sims to the GeekCon, only to find that most of the items from the Romance Festival were still there. Of course all the stalls and benches glitched through each other, so my sims couldn't use any of the items from the GeekCon. One of the rockets even…
  • My sister just played with a sim with ear plugs, and she says that it looks like he did gain fun from listening for a while, but it was such an insignificant amount that it didn't actually raise his fun. The automatic decay was higher than the amount gained from listening to the ear buds. That's not a deal breaker for me,…
  • Yeah, sims are near the food stalls and some other areas of the park, but never on the actual lot itself. I hope the devs end up unlocking the lot so we can actually put it to good use. I'd actually like to use it for my legacies, or put in a library or restaurant.
  • It's not a bug. You need to do a dinner party.
  • Are you sure you have the right one? There's two new night lights. One is the regular version, the other has the stars. If you search for "starry-night" in buy mode it should show up.
  • I have the same problem with the Synthetic Food Serum. It's always labeled as "untested", and it also no longer shows if the serum is tainted.
  • ... They do? In my game, only a handful of NPCs are unemployed, mostly the vampires (insert joke about leeching from taxpayers). Maybe it's because I play rotational style with almost 20 different households, but most of the townies walking around are colleagues to my sims. The few that don't have a job get used as…
  • This bug was fixed a while ago, but now it's back with a vengeance. If I direct my teens to put their homework in their inventory, they will pick it up, sit down somewhere, and then do the "I can't go there!" animation until the homework disappears into their inventory anyway. I got so sick of it that now I just have one…
  • Honestly, the lack of social interaction wouldn't bother me so much if the sims would react to other bowlers. So far, I haven't heard a peep from anyone in the group if someone rolls a strike, they just stand there smiling at nothing. I don't understand why the devs didn't just recycle some of the other animations from the…
