  • I'm also still playing TS3; I recently managed to complete my collection and now I own every EP except from the last one which I'm not interested in. Therefore, I feel like I fulfilled a childhood dream and I'm enjoying my game like never before :D
  • I'm experiencing the same issues, and what I usually do is move one parent and the child to another home while he or she's in this life stage because if not, man, I would go crazy :D
  • It sounds great! And maybe I'm rambling too much but having teaching as a new job would be fantastic...
  • Thanks for the clarification; didn't know anything about what you have explained. I have played The Sims 3 on an iMac, but always on Windows through Bootcamp and as far as I can remember didn't have any issues. As for The Sims 4, this one I did play it on Mac OS without any issues at all, but it was some time ago.
  • @SimplyJen Yes, thanks for the advice but I have already set the vsync for both TS3 and 4 because I do really fear them, specially the 3 as it is very badly optimized. My card is a Nvidia GeForce 775 by the way
  • Haven't installed The Sims 4 on it, but it should indeed work well with high graphic settings according to the game's requirements and the laptop specifications. Mine's the 2018 version, but I wouldn't recommend buying a Mac if your intention is to play on it... Better choose MSI or Alienware.
  • Sorry to interrupt but why that last thing? I own a Macbook Pro and was thinking about installing TS3, I can't see why wouldn't it be possible to set visual options on high. The new Macbook Pros are mounting last gen i7 quad-core and even six-core; the bigger ones with 4GB Nvidia cards.
  • @Karritz @SimplyJen Thank you both for your help, The problem is that here in Spain I think it's difficult to find brand new physical copies; because I have looked on some videogame stores and also through Amazon and eBay but they don't have them anymore, or if they do it's only the code what they are selling. I have only…
  • Thank you all for your responses and advices. I own 6 EPs and 1SP, and my computer is a little bit old now but still can run games well. An i7, 8GB RAM and 2GB of dedicated Nvidia graphics card I think are enough to play the sims. Have tried running the game with all expansions; after doing some adjustments and installing…
  • @SimplyJen Hey you really have inspired me to go on and complete my Sims 3's collection! Already found World Adventures and Ambitions, on the way to acquire them. Didn't know that used codes could be registered, would this work if I'm in 1.69 patch? Now I am looking for University Life; but I think I'll keep Into the…
  • I couldn't agree more with you, I think the same. I only owned Sims 3 EP, and not all of them, and now I'm thinking about completing my collection with the rest of them... But it's such a hard challenge as it is very rare to find them in stores, so I'm looking through the second-hand market. How did you managed to find…
  • Okay, thanks for your help, I have just done it.
  • It seems the sale is only on the Base Game, and for it to be applied you have to enter the code "CHOICESIMS". Via SimsVip
  • Thank you for your help. While the showing the first unread message issue is fixed (the problem was I used to clink on the last page available of the threads), the issue with threads remaining as unread still remains after doing what you told me. Also tried switching my browser but it didn't work.
  • From my point of view, I have always found stuff packs kind of useless... And sadly, with TS4 even more. I think they aren't worth the money they cost, I would prefer the stuff being included in Game Packs. These ones I think are a very interesting alternative to Expansions for reduced budgets as it's my case.
  • Hi, I post here because I didn't know where to do it. I am experiencing a problem with read threads; as I may have all threads of a category already read but it still remains white as there was something new. Also, I would like to know if there's a possibility to go to the first non-read message of a thread when opening…
  • llvesstlr s Not very accurate :D
  • Vaiana, with my brother. Fell asleep in the middle of the film... So can't say if it actually counts.
  • Kind of to be honest Erratic?
  • > @kalaksed said: > i love the monster under the bed, but it seems to mostly show up for the households where i want the kids to be scared of it. the kids i want to befriend it (usually the 'weird' ones, like alexander goth or vampire or alien kids or such) are frequently out of luck when i play their households. though…
  • I also saw it on Youtube, and cheered up but then got to Origin and found out there's nothing on sale. Im from Spain btw.
  • I don't usually change outfits; what's more, I only use the daily, pijama and sports ones... My sims rarely go to a party. But what I indeed do is changing them when they age up, and I find it very satisfying.
  • I personally don't do very much to make the game more realistic but number 1 and 2 are usually on my list. I also try to have kids with my sims before they get to be adults because if not I find the ages not matching at all... (for example, an elder father whose son is a teenager...) For the rest of the things I find my…
  • Well, eventhough I think it's a good idea I also consider that it would make the game heavier and slower... And I rarely find the limitation annoying as I don't usually play with big families. Therefore, I am fine with how things are at the moment.
  • > @PinkPaws66 said: > @megaluci00 Have you tried that anti-monster nightlight? Well, now that you say it I discovered the light yesterday after purchasing the game pack Parenthood, but I didn't actually read its description nor tried it so I will put it on my child's room next time. Thanks!
  • Sorry I change a little bit the subject... But I'm thinking about switching to Steam so that I can share games with my brother because with Origin that is not possible; but I'm looking for The Sims 4 and it seems it isn't available in Steam... Do you know something about this?
  • I started playing The Sims in console, I remember I tried My Sims for Nintendo DS but I hadn't got a clue about what to do and just left it. My next contact with The Sims came around 2009 when I heard some friends at school talking about The Sims 3 and I was fascinated by what they told. After saving some money, I bought…
  • I'm experiencing the same issue, and I don't have the Seasons EP. I also noticed that my child is always finding a monster under his bed, like every single night and that is soo disturbing as he wakes up everyone in the house.
