@KyreRoen With all of my magical and vampire crossbreeding, this is the first time an actual hybrid has happened! Previously, they were one or the other. @mightysprite Isn't that facial expression hilarious? It was one of those things where my sim was just lazing around because I wasn't telling them to do anything, and I…
@eyesetokill25 I think you can have your sim click on the chicken and tell it you don't need its help anymore. The grim reaper attacking I think has to be initiated by asking your evil chicken for help. It also scares away foxes autonomously. I haven't tried it, but I know you can do that with the Golden chickens too, and…
Yes, what gets me is the issues of going to work or school while in a vacation world. I was able to hit "go to work" to send a sim, but something glitched and after that, I could not send the sim to work again (after clicking on their icon after work to bring to vacation lot), even once they returned to the home lot. I…
I haven't read about this yet, but did the patch also add the ability to live in previously "Vacation Only" areas, such as Granite Falls? I thought with vacation destinations now available for every world (and the new menu) you might be able to live in those areas now. Here's wishing, as I really want a hermit who lives in…
If you are a brand new member, you cannot create your own thread until you have done interactions (I think so many people have to like your posts, and you have respond to so many posts... there was a thread in the general area for this express purpose. I believe it exists to keep bots from posting threads). They no longer…
I miss the TS2 memory system so much. It added such depth to the game and the Sim's interactions. I've had a spouse die in TS4 and despite having high relationships, no one even cried when the Reaper took her. Like "eh, we don't care." Whereas in TS2 the memory would hit them days later and just randomly pop up and it made…
You just learn the duplicato (?) or whatever that spell is caused. Then once a Sim learns a potion, they get a copy of that potion in their inventory. You simply put it out in the world, duplicate it to your heart's (and overcharge meter) extent, and sell them away. No additional ingredients needed. I'm glad you can do…
I really like the Vampire pack. Other than Vlad or one of the pre-created Vampires showing up, you wouldn't know I had vampires, even going to the Vampire world. If you study the Vampire skill, you are more likely to have them show up on a lot or call you, but that is about as intrusive as I have seen. I have never had a…
Nooo! I missed RoM because I had computer issues. :( Oh well. I didn't "need" it but it will likely be a long time before it's 50% off again, as that rarely seems to happen for game packs. (sigh)
My issue is even the indoor plants are resetting to the "just planted or just blooming" state when it changes INTO the right season. So say I visit a garden I have on a community lot and while I was gone it went from summer to fall. All of the indoor fall plants that SHOULD be season are now in the "just planted" state…
It loses the fresh count anytime you have a loading screen. So if my Sims leave to go a community lot that is all that is needed to get rid of the counter of any food left behind. Sack lunches aren't affected by this though. So basically any loading screen stops the countdown right now. Do an easy food cheat is making a…
I built a pool in the basement of the library in the Uni town so my mermaids would always have somewhere to swim. They haven't had any issues freezing or being cold when using it in winter. I have not checked since the patch or latest update though.
I have noticed when you install a patch, it has a tendency to "reset" things. This is why all of the out-of-season plants turned back into lumps. As they hit their season they will grow and then remain the same as they were before, the full greenhouse effect working again. If you don't want to wait for them to be in season…
They had over half of the stuff packs on sale back in, I think it was January and February, and maybe part of March? Each week another Stuff pack went on sale. The newest ones didn't go on sale (it was around the time Tiny Living was released), but most of the older ones did. I'd only had the toddlers stuff pack until that…
HELP?! How can I play without running the update until there is a patch for the stupid patch? It won't let me open the game without updating and I actually have time to play. I hate Origin so much. And I knew this would happen, which is why I had Origin open as sometimes when I leave it open, I can play without patching…
Meanwhile, I'm trying to get my male sim pregnant by alien abduction. :) There is a way to reduce the chance. Either through the scientist career or using the bb cheat to view all objects (don't know it off the top of my head but it's posted somewhere and carlthesim recently posted a video about it). You get the satellite…
I don't have the pack, but I don't see why people aren't building an outdoor kitchen. Put a grill and a picnic table outside, and use the kitchen space as a bedroom area for kids or to put that bathtub in. If you truly need a fridge, it's only two squares. You could even make the roof overhang to protect the area from…
You can also edit any dorm BEFORE a sim goes to live there. You can edit that like any community lot and add anything you want. I built souped up dorms that have every study thing possible (because I hate loading screens) and gave them better beds. :) I have my stuff in the gallery here or create your own if a sim hasn't…
I would go and report it on the bug sight. While bearpal64 is correct and weather does vary, it does usually match the weather forecast for the day and does change with the seasons (sometimes gradually though) but by summer unless it is one of the mystery weather days where it changes multiples times without warning and…
This issue is not related to DU. It is due to the Nov 12th patch, as it appeared post-patch for many of us and quite a few of us do not have DU. I was going to purchase it, but the game is essentially unplayable for me with this bug, as it happens to ONLY evolved harvestables, leaving the normal ones behind. This happens…
I was looking forward to having an evil mermaid too.. Darn. It does seem impossible to kill sims when you want them too. I think it took me 4 days to kill an elder sim and that was making her whoohoo in a rocket to exhaust her and still she lingered. I swear the easiest way to kill a sim is make them silly, a comedian, and…
Darn it, I was hoping one of the patches had fixed the cooking issue. I really want to try this lot trait, but I agree, the inability to bake things and for sims to always be depressed they couldn't get a hot shower? Really? (sigh) I really hope this fix this in a future patch, and make the off grid stoves include oven…
