TSM looks almost identical to TS4 with a bit of TSF added in for some things... I mean they share a lot of the same objects from what I've seen and they have really similar graphics. TS4 is most certainly Olympus, maybe even with bits of Icarus mixed in, but it appears they also have built TSM with old leftover materials…
Streaming doesn't make you a hardcore gamer... In some ways, it makes you less so because you are attracting 'casual gamers' to games, which in turn makes later games in that series be easier and cater more to those. And those who stream tend to only ever play to stream, which means for one two hour session a week. That's…
@brycebeck This question is a little off-topic but I want to answer it and help. I know the answer so... Ah, I have an idea on that. First get Metasequoia or Blendr or similar 3D modelling software. Don't worry, it's nothing too complex! Make sure it is the full version, not a demo. Get the one you understand best and get…
First, look at what lot sizes you have in your game. What you can use will help you decide how to scale things. I am not including height in my scales, as you can use any wall heights you want on any lot. Look at the smallest one and think 'okay, I must be able to fit all the basics in there and maybe a pool if I get…
All online forums are really positive places, except when you come accross a troll... But if you post something wrong, people will correct you. I find that a really nice feature because you can at least learn from it :)
Let's just get a sim out to show you they're not rushed... Average around 20-30 mins, but when I really take my time, I spend an hour... The above was a 10 min sim.
There's also a lot of cross-over between ideas and feedback. Maybe this is for where it is an issue is given then a solution is also suggested, while the other two sections are just there for less cross over. Idk though...
They could have multibuy discounts and save people who don't have any SPs yet a substantial chunk of $70 (I think?) for all of them. But buying them all at once makes each pack feel like it's worth less... to me. Because that way I don't notice new content from each individual pack as much. So it may not be such a great…
I'm just grateful they are cheaper & with better content for gameplay than they were in TS3. One tip for cheap price: try Origin, then look around a few places online.... Find the cheapest one or get a bundle. Shops tend to charge less online than in store because there's more compettition online. Ask a shop about why the…
I find myself forced to use a ton of CC, with lack of CASt and much less items than TS3. (if you knew how much I use now, it might scare you... I have too much CC)
I love that color wheel :) The one reason I'd say it's not quite there is that it has lots of colors, but many of them are vibrant and none of them look muted. There's lots of light and dark, which I love, but not much variation in saturation. But that would be a luxury compared to what we have now. At least we could have…
The graphics are okay, but I prefer Alice: Madness Returns graphics. They have different styles though. If you've seen it in game and turned the gamma settings perfectly, it looks even more amazing than this. And I disagree, graphics don't enhance gameplay. I'd rather have a game that's super fun to play than one that…
You can change it on your sim's computer, if they have one. I love computers irl but don't always give my sims one. The menu is pretty similar to Master Controller by NRaas for TS3, so if you're familiar with that, you should be fine. And I always have experienced that with weddings/parties so I just fix it manually. It…
In a few weeks time, after the 'first impressions' stage, issues may appear for you. But it's your personal choice to force it to run TS4 and you can do it if you want to. You got warned though, so it's not like anyone else will be to blame. I hope you get lucky but realistically, the chances are slim. And then any…
You could try low medium with no CC/mods (except ones that fix bugs/glitches) and with a tiny bit of DLC. Since you have another PC too, you don't need to get a new one. You can play on good settings/ with more DLC/CC/mods on your other PC. I would try it and see how it runs, since this Your GPU is NVidia. Maybe download…
