  • I just played last night, and entered a pie. The fair said it ended at 9:30pm on the calendar, but I got the “fair is ending in 1hr” message at 9:30. My Sim won 1st place and did get the ribbon, but the pie was not returned. The booths that had the entries disappeared before I got the prize results, so there was no way to…
  • I’m not sure if anyone knows why/how some people have it and some don’t (it seems random?). I’m in the northeast USA and I do have the the shopping cart in my game. My experience with it hasn’t been too bad, it hasn’t moved/blinked or had a light on it at all. I have all packs (except 3 of the kits) installed, I just…
  • I have the button, but mine is broken I guess. It’s there, but doesn’t blink/pulse or have the yellow light. It also says I own everything, but I don’t have 3 of the kits or the new SP. I’m still really annoyed by it, so I’m using TwistedMexi’s mod to get rid of it as well.
  • Oasis springs has tons (plus the secret lot there has a bunch), if you have outdoor retreat there are quite a few spawners around, if you have ROM you can buy them at the shop in the magic realm, also in the art district of city living you can sometimes find a Sim selling them at a table by the food booths.
  • I can live with the shopping cart icon, but the blinking can trigger my migraines. I’ve had to stop playing other games because of it, I don’t want to lose the Sims too.
  • I agree, I was going to grab the new pack on Thursday but I’m waiting for now. I have no desire to have something blinking at me, I have to be careful with games as it is because that can trigger my migraines.
  • I use the saucers mostly, but add other lamps for decoration purposes. I have rather poor vision IRL, so I really need a lot of lighting to see anything clearly (this goes for my real home as well).
  • I play on a modified (longer) normal lifespan with MCCC. I usually turn aging off when my Sim is in Uni, and turn it back on once they have reached a young adult goal I have set for them (career/marriage/child etc). I do have a few saves where I keep aging off or use age active household only, such as my TS2 style rotation…
  • @MrManyIdeas those items came in the patch that added the style influencer career back in 2018 :)
  • I’m really enjoying reading everyone’s stories! I have played the family many times, one time they adopted a son then promptly had triplets, another time Eliza left Bob for J Huntington and had kids with him (Bob remarried and had a daughter due to MCCC in that save). In my current save they were living in a gross…
  • I’d like to know this too, as I had a 5 star completely upgraded apt. and the tenant had just said things were great when asked. I still had the revolt happen later that same day, and there was no way to really solve it since everything was already high end/upgraded.
  • I bought the base game in 2017 for like $5-$10 or something like that, and I just bought the Star Wars pack during this sale. Everything else I think I paid full price for, and have it all except for a few of the kits.
  • In the live stream they said they added the hot water to the microwave because some builds don’t have a lot of counter space for so many small appliances (or something like that). I guess it’s to add the tea/coffee/hot chocolate features from the new kettle that comes with For rent.
  • I haven’t updated yet, so I’m not experiencing this myself. Have you tried closing it with task manager? Or maybe just restart or shut down your computer? It will probably just ask if you’re sure since you have a program open, but I’ve never had a problem exiting that way when things glitch on me like that.
  • This past month maybe 5-10, the holiday season is a busy one for us. My free time varies greatly as a stay at home/homeschooling mom. This month I’ll be lucky to find any time at all, as we have Christmas activities plus there are several family birthdays this month (one of them being my oldest child).
  • I’m currently just converting a few builds that already exist in my save template. I’m not much of a builder but I’m giving it a try in Del Sol, and started working on these 3 rental homes.
  • This! Plus awake pets seem to keep them away as well.
  • Yuki Behr is my most played premade, along with Wolfgang Munch. A long time ago MCCC paired them up in one of my saves and they have been my favorite ever since.
  • According to this link it’s about 2gb.. not entirely sure how accurate it is? but seems right based on folder size for me. https://bestgamingtips.com/how-much-space-sims-4-takes-up/
  • If you don’t want to update right now, you can play offline. Just open the EA app, click the three lines in the top left corner, select Go offline, it will ask if you’re sure, click “yes I’m sure”. It then will show a black screen that says “couldn’t connect to servers” but will list any games you can play with a blue…
  • Yes, I set out whole pizzas, ice cream cartons, and cupcake platters on mine. Each customer bought a single serving, some even sat at the tables I set out to eat them. The ice cream is fun because they will even have the toppings on them, if you set up those on the carton before adding them to your table.
  • Yes I do! I have the complete collection of TS1 on disk, Every single disk for TS2 in their individual plastic cases, all of TS3 in their individual boxes + the game guides, and a disk I made of all my purchased store content. I also have a few stand alone Sims stories & cast away stories disks, and both disks for the sims…
  • I completely agree with you! I’ve taken to just using door locks for everything, the ranch hand is currently locked out of my Sim’s house & garden. I just use the ranch hand for keeping the chickens, cow, goats, and sheep happy, my Sim handles the horses & garden on her own mostly. I was able to solve most of the issues…
  • You can make puzzles on any of the other game tables from other packs as well. I agree though I wish you could use any table for puzzles & games.
  • I noticed a pair of jeans from horse ranch has the same appearance on a female sim with a female frame.. I’m wondering if they were not supposed to be categorized as female?
  • Does it seem like you’re seeing this bug here? https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-SAVES-VIDEOS-HR-Sims-get-stuck-cooking-eating/td-p/12761138
  • Get to work cloning machine too!
  • Yes I’m seeing that too. I don’t know if it’s a bug or just bad luck though. In one save I hired a ranch hand and he worked out great, in my other save I got a female and she did exactly what you described. I ended up firing her and rehiring, but the game gave me the same Sim again. So I fixed it by firing her again, then…
  • It very much does look like Central Park, I loved going there as a kid and watching the police on horseback. I haven’t been in years, just might have to take a quick trip back. I keep promising my oldest we’ll go (we’re a few hours away by car), but never seem to make the time.
