  • I remember Grant responding to someone asking for an overhaul of systems like whims, traits and aspirations. He said something that sounded like they were considering it but were worried that people that like it how it is now would be unhappy. It's possible that they stepped away from them to see how people reacted. I hope…
  • I got Dolce & Gabbana. Thank you for doing these!
  • Only some part-time jobs have the option to choose the hours. It also seems like you can only have 2 part-time jobs if you pick the morning shift for one and the evening shift for the other, regardless of when the actual hours are. I love that they added this but hope they keep improving it. I definitely want to see the…
  • The one thing I'm stuck on is how do we wash toddlers and dogs? None of the baths work. Could do with some sort of old fashioned/tin bath that we can use. Our sims have found water to fill up a wash tub for their clothes, so should be able to do something similar with baths.
  • I got Cayman Brac. Thank you for doing this.
  • If I had to choose one, I would rather the option to live there. I will get more use out of it that way. However, I would like to see them add in the option to purchase multiple houses. My workaround depends on the sim in question. If they want to stay in a traditional hotel, I will create a restaurant lot, with a front…
  • Definitely planning on doing the same. Normally I only play for a few hours every couple of weeks and I normally rotate between saves. Would ideally like to take my time and add it into my rotations but the risk of spoilers makes me want to obsessively play through it all as quickly as possible.
  • It doesn't sound like a story that once you trigger, you have to play. It sounds like you can just move through it at your own pace or ignore it completely if you want to. It's not an actual story mode.
  • I'm at a point where I want the pack but I'm worried I would regret buying it if it doesn't have much I can add to my normal games. So I'm basically waiting and hoping they can convince me to buy it. Hoping for a lot of grungy, rundown looking stuff.
  • I think a castaway GP would be cool but more so if it was an island set up to look like that, rather than a specific story we play through. So CAS could include tattered clothes and BB could be lots of broken/wooden items. They could include a tent type of shelter but made of wood and have trees that our sims could cut…
  • I agree. I feel like spotting a celebrity should be a rare thing. As it is, anytime my sim goes anywhere, there's a celebrity. At the library, at the park, at the gym etc. There needs to be celebrity lots that are likely to have celebs and a low chance of them showing up in normal lots, especially for high level…
  • 51%, better than I thought it was going to be since I haven't seen most of those films.
  • One Guru tweeted about scavenging in an abandoned house. It's possible the trailer is something your sim can search through.
  • Is that the acting lot? Can we take our child sims with us to work?
  • Are you sure the clothes were properly clean when you put them to dry? If the moodlet was about dirty clothes then it sounds like they did dry but needed a second wash, as sometimes the first isn't enough.
  • I think it's a great idea. It would be cool if our sims could choose which level of a career they want to apply for. If they apply for level 1 they're pretty much guaranteed to get the job, level 2/3 they can get it if they have the skills and have a small chance of getting it without the required skills, and higher levels…
  • I got 52%, not bad considering I haven't seen most of the films. Thank you for doing another giveaway!
  • I created an age mod last year which meant I knew how they had done the ages for the pets. So when I created a new game and both my young adults had a different wait to age up, I suspected they might have changed it to work the same way, so checked the code.
  • The long and short lifespans are calculated from the normal lifespan, rather than having the numbers listed anywhere. To work out what they would be, multiple the normal lifespan by 4 to get long and divide it by 2 to get the short lifespan.
  • Adults can use the swings because teens can. They share the same animations and people would have been pretty upset if teens couldn't use the swings. I think toddlers would require their own swing, hopefully they make them at some point.
  • I will sometimes rotate slightly but I will always return to looking straight on and never turn to view from the back. I always build houses with the bathroom at the back so the shower isn't blocking my view. I always place fridges to the far side of the kitchen and bookcases somewhere out of the way. I think it's a habit…
  • According to the coding, the thermostat is supposed to increase bills by 25% or decrease them by 25% depending on which setting you use. Maybe the large bills are a bug or maybe something else is going on, such as having a garden with a lot of harvestables on the plants or in inventories, since that adds to the value of…
  • The holidays are set up so that they use up vacation time and once that runs out the holidays are unpaid. Could vacation time in general not be altered to work in the same way? So at any point we can take a day off work but we will only be paid if we have the vacation days available. I like the challenge of having to earn…
  • I was looking at the coding the other day and it's different to the work from home options for city living. With city living careers, there is the area that lists their pay per hour and then it lists their pay per day when working from home, which gets divided by the number of tasks when working from home. This information…
  • In the livestream, they are celebrating Harvestfest and show the neighbours with those decorations on their house. Then they edit the holiday and change the decoration tab to spring, which changes the neighbours decorations to the spring one's. So if you set the decoration tab to none, neighbours shouldn't have any…
  • When you mention deleting gnomes, is that because of the gnome game where they had to kick them and the gnomes broke everything? Because if that bothers you, it was a tradition, I don't think the gnomes would show up and do that if you don't have it set as one of the traditions. Also I don't think they will change into…
  • I think the point of the new clothing categories is to help protect sims from the new deaths. That's why it's hot and cold. You can still change them into those clothes anytime, so you can have them wear their hot clothes in summer both indoors and out. Personally I would find it annoying to go into CAS and keep changing…
  • I think the purpose of these blog posts is to show how all of the packs work together, rather than giving us new info about seasons.
  • Back when they were doing the community stuff pack, they shared a picture of the developers brainstorm for potential features. Most of it fit the off the grid category and you can see the pic in this article https://simsvip.com/2017/06/23/community-blog-help-maxis-pick-gameplay-features-eco-living/ Maybe that explains it…
