  • Sorry to hear you're leaving. Was great meeting you! Good luck with wherever your future takes you! Your work on The Sims will be missed.

  • Been playing The Sims 4 CAS Demo for about 2 days now and it's great! Some Points: When you first go in to Create a Sim, it's very easy. The UI is very clean and neat and I like how it responds to clicks. The sound effects are also really cool too. Navigation and creating Sims couldn't be easier. Just click and point,…
  • Hi! Just wanted to say I'm testing something with this and I think it might have something to do with game caches as others are reporting going between the different future types and the buildings have the broken/dirty look applied to them even though they're in the normal future. I'll let you know what I find. Something…
  • Keep submitting your questions! :D
  • I have four submissions! :D Houseboats: SS Simify - http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=7434812 Sailor's Mansion Houseboat - http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=7514035 Resorts: Sandstone Paradise Resort - http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=7466917 Sandy Pearl Resort -…
  • Curved walls, yes please! Let's not forget recolorable roofs/chimneys, maybe even skylights? Floor to ceiling windows? All good things! :D
  • Here is my current household Sim enjoying her grilled cheese while it's raining outside!
  • I have two issues that I have discovered. First, Sims shrinking in size when they use walking sticks/canes. This was however corrected when starting a new save so that may not be an issue. Second was saves getting corrupt. For some reason my save no longer loads. It gets to 1/4 of the loading bar, music stops, and the game…
  • I can't edit my original post anymore, no option to edit like before, so here is my graphics card information. AMD Radeon 6600M/6700M Series (What it says.) Memory Size: 1GB (Dedicated) Memory Type: GDDR5 Core Clock: 600Mhz Memory Clock: 800Mhz Latest AMD Catalyst 13.1 drivers installed. The gameplay graphics are great,…
  • Also, another thing I found out with Create a Sim is that if I use the Filters and filter content, it does not help with the very very slow loading of the outfits. However, if I choose The Sims 3 or any EPs/SPs, Store Content is still listed. If correct, if I choose The Sims 3 (for example), it should only show The Sims 3…
  • It still appears that Create a Sim is extremely slow in the Outfits categories. Whether it's Everday, Swimwear, Outerwear, Formal, or Sleepwear (all of the outfit types) and their sub-categories: tops, bottoms, accessories or shoes, they all load in very very slowly. So slow that it slows down the Sim from doing their…
  • • What does a future Utopia look like in The Sims 3 in your mind? How would you imagine the environment, buildings, and other visual parts of the world to look? A future Utopia in The Sims 3 would look very clean, with minimal roads. Trees, shrubs, and bushes would all be precisely trimmed in shapes, such as squares,…
  • I've noticed a couple of annoyances which could possibly be looked at. 1. Create a Household lags. This started around the time of Supernatural. Basically in Everyday Outfits (this applies to all categories though) it seems to take a very very long time to load in all of the outfits. Then if you go to style the outfit…
  • @Crinrict: Okay I've cleared my caches and launched the game, zoomed over to the Elixir lot in Moonlight Falls and as I page up and down between floors on the Elixir lot it plays the sound for the LLAMA over and over. You have to be in Live Mode, so it looks like the sound driver update and cache file clearing did not…
  • @Crinrict: Yes, I reported the other sound issues as well in previous game updates. I just updated my Sound drivers today, just a little while ago but haven't tried the game since. HP released an HP Beats Audio driver that is now compatible with Windows 8 so we'll see. :P
  • Similar to the laundry sound effect and animation playing when paging up or down between floors, the LLAMA system (introduced with Supernatural) does the same thing. When you page up or down between floors the LLAMA system will play the sound effect as if a Sim is using it. The best place to try this is the Alchemy shop or…
  • When sharing a Greeting Card to your Player Wall or Friends Wall (doesn't matter which) when you click the Accept button the game acts like it's doing something, but is just frozen with the sharing window for the Greeting Card still in focus. You then have to end the task with Task Manager losing unsaved progress because…
  • Thanks and you're welcome! :)
  • Three new issues that I saw that were not added and they are minor. First is that when Sim are sitting in a stool rather than a chair, and they react with the "Spicy!" or "Too Spicy" they snap down to normal chair height and perform the moodlet effect (fire out of mouth and steam out of ears) and then snap back to the…
  • No I did not as I did not think of that, but thank you for your feedback. I've updated the tutorial (linked above) with the new easier method and still kept the old method too, since there is more than one way to use the planters. :P
  • It's not a bug as zombies are a rare occurrence. They appear more though with a full moon. I've had a zombie or two randomly show up without a full moon, though there are more that appear with a full moon.
  • Nope, you're not the only one. Though my full moons seem to happen quicker. For example, it's set on the default 6 days. The full moon happens and then it says I have 5 days until the next full moon. Sims go to sleep and the next Sim day at some point it switches and says my next full moon is in 2 days or 1 days, a lot…
  • I've ordered from Origin for Supernatural, and I've also ordered past games like Showtime, Sweet Treats, and Diesel Stuff. I've always gotten those on the release date mainly because I would choose 1-2 day shipping and that was before it used to cost $15.00. I pre-ordered Supernatural Limited Edition from Origin when I…
  • Could possibly, though with it being a holiday and all today in the US, it will most likely be tomorrow (the 4th).
  • Like mentioned, physical copies from Origin are only available in the United States. I don't know why they do this but they do. So if you live anywehre else apart from the United States you will only have the option of a digital version. There are plenty of retailers that will carry the limited edition and ship a physical…
  • The game does not require Adobe Air or Adobe Flash Player. Perhaps certain functions inside the game launcher does, like their scrolling content things that shows you what's new will require Flash Player but that's it. To play the game or update the game, it doesn't require these. Just an internet connection (for game…
  • They have yet to make Lunar Lakes or Lucky Palms available as a physical copy, so it would be awhile for Sunlit Tides to be available in stores. Something tells me that they won't be doing this because like mentioned, it was just a code in a box. It probably costed them more to include the regular game case, the printing…
  • I've run into the problem where your country is set to the correct one on TheSims3.com but not in Origin so they think you live in a different country. :P
  • Make sure your Location under your profile is set to your country. You can change this here: http://mypage.thesims3.com/aboutMe/profile.html Also, login to Origin using your TheSims3.com email and password as this would be your Origin account since they are both linked together. Make sure your country in Origin is set to…
  • It should be in the Lots bin for placement and there is one lot that it can go on in Sunlit Tides. The Serenity Retreat in my lots bin was not named and just had the title of Community Lot which I changed after I placed it in the world. :P For it not showing in your lot bin, check the name because I couldn't find it at…
