Looking forward to being able to make CC objects for The Sims 4, I used to do it for The Sims 2 a long time ago and I want to get back into it again for TS4 :)
It seems to be happening to anyone who has a lot of downloads on their houses. I noticed that the person who had re-uploaded my house had also re-uploaded a few other popular houses. Sadly I don't think Maxis will be doing anything about these copies though :(
Yes you need to log into Origin each time you play, if you have a internet connection on your PC then you will automatically be logged in as online each time. You cannot play the game without Origin sadly. Just wondering why you would want to auto login as offline each time?
Sounds like a bug somewhere in your game, you should report this over in the bug forum: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/bd-p/The-Sims-4-Bugs My internet was down last week and I was able to load The Sims 4 just fine. Origin asks you to login and then it goes into offline mode and you can play your games…
Sounds like you built on the same lot as I did, I also built mine the facing the other houses in that street. Sadly you can't change the view of the preview pictures like you can for rooms.
Sadly it can't be changed, I had the same problem with one of mine. I'm guessing you built it on a corner plot and you've built the front of the house on the wrong side.
It was free on Origin a couple of months ago for a limited time so it's unlikely Origin will decide to sell it now. The only way now would be 2nd hand shops or places like ebay.
