Not sure why EA (or is it Maxis?) can't tell it's me from XBox and PS4. Treats each console like an entirely different profile. Luckily I uploaded most stuff to gallery, but some stuff islost.

  • I haven't played in forever, so I didn't know about recent "improvements". The Fear of a Dead End job is the most irritating thing added, it is a daily thing for someone over half way up the career ladder. "I'm a lawyer now! And...and I...I don't know where THIS IS GOING!" Inconsolable sobbing commences. Are you serious?…
  • You'd think since they have assets on PC that they would add Horses to the pets pack in an update. Plus snakes (i think, might be remembering wrong). I mean, they already have barn doors and such. Come on. Just sayin'. Just a thought.😗
  • I see just as many bugs, but it is quite a bit quicker. Mostly just loading into the game is the biggest. The rest is mostly a few seconds faster here and there. Hope Sony sorts out manufacturing soon for folks who weren't able to get one.👍
  • Garden Salads only, and Treadmill or just jogging for slimming down. Works for me.👍
  • Personally, I think a decent level upgrade should remove chance a bed turning murderous for the people who want it. You want? Upgrade. Risk life and limb for a nights rest? Choose the less breaks, or leave its deadliness intact. Pretty straightforward solution in my opinion.
  • Usually coffee. Can also depend on the family. My Doc and his wife drink just tea if I'm recalling correctly. Drink black tea for Logic then go to work at the clinic/hospital for example. They tended to stick to one or two kinds of tea, I wouldn't just pick something to put them in a particular mood.
  • I recently shared a bunch of my houses and Sims so I could play them still on PS4. witlessrogue85 if anyone wants to see if I have anything worthy. Have a few restaurants I made, a swimming pool, a park, a handful of houses and the Sims that lived in each house. Some I posted twice. Not sure with some Sims, but some houses…
  • Uploaded my XBox families and Lots (finished and in progress versions) and downloaded on PS4. Unexpected, palpable relief I didn't expect. So thanks for the Gallery.👍
  • Was able to upload my XBox lots and families and download them on PS4. Just had to track down my EA xbox ID. I'm pretty happy with that, so I'm set. Gallery is a success in my opinion. 👍
  • Glad to see this. Especially the cross-platform! I gave my X-One to Mom a while back (she loves this game and Fallout), and then I got Sims 4 on the PS4 recently just in time to learn about this. The cross-platform still gets me. Very cool! I'm gonna need to borrow the X-One back to upload my people and creations so I can…
  • So anyone ever find out? Or they work in a patch? Example being, when you get pregnant it says 'You're eating for two!' or a close equivalent. Anything like that for twins and/or triplets, or no? Also, is there a way to guarantee a boy or girl in this one? In Sims 3 it was Apples and I think Watermelon(not sure on latter).
  • I almost never hear the knocking. I usually have it where you can see through the walls, but not through to the outside.
  • Cool, I didn't know it was already announced. Lookin' forward to it! :)
  • Thanks for the help. Shame it's not just across that particular save though.
  • They should add a sprinkler. Go right in the middle of a garden box, or sprinkle in a 3x3 grid or something.
  • It would be neat, but looking forward to Back to Work, plus Cats and Dogs more.
  • Well, there is double tapping share button, or pressing it then hitting triangle. Xbox you just hit the Xbox button, followed by the Y. That's...that's all I'm aware of really. Surprised there isn't a photo mode like in AC Origins, but not a concern really. So many features, just like 'huh' when it wasn't there. Plus all…
  • I feel so...uninformed. Well. I Diiiiid... Thanks everybody, especially LaBlue0314, since you mentioned it first. :smiley:
  • I never have noticed when this game actually auto saves. It seems to have an auto save at the same time as I start whichever load I choose. In other words, it doesn't really autosave from what I can tell. If someone can give an idea when it is supposed to, I'll keep an eye out for it. Otherwise, I think it's faulty. Lost…
  • > @sooozeeebeee said: > I did not need to open the cheat window in order to enlarge or shrink objects in my PS4 game. Hold down L2 and R2 while object is being held, then use direction buttons. Huh. Will test later on XBox. Kudos for tip if it works. Will update ( unless someone else does first; then I'll do it anyway :D ).
  • Hoping that Get to Work comes after Dine Out.
  • I almost forgot. Is buying a book you published in whatever fashion not buyable at a bookshelf, or is this a bug? I'm guessing the former, hoping the latter, since that would be fixable.
  • > @MrStrange said: > Entering a books name and description is messed up. The description ends up overwriting the title. > Then I end up with this long description for a title, and a description that says, 'Book about Sci-Fi' or what have you. > The only time this didn't happen was for first book, a short story. > Obviously…
  • I think people know, that to get hitched, to skip a formal ceremony due to a glitch. Well, it seems that has extended to other social activities. I could pause, but not save, while this was happening. The game was stuck in the options in the corner while the social event screen was open. Couldn't get the icon to appear…
  • Vampire ate an excellent plasma salad. Gained one moodlet that was +5 Uncomfortable, but then had another that said something about surgical precision (in short, was positive, not negative). Seems backward, thought read that somewhere on here, so figured was a bug. Only way they gain back thirst is biting sims, which isn't…

  • A handful of hair styles. "Practical" comes to mind. So many of the hairstyles, look like they belong in a boy band or something. Which is fine, but there are So Many Of Them. :neutral: Handful of cars ( when you use them, they act like a phone with the travel command, except with Justin and the mission of them opening the…
  • Cats and Dogs, and Get to Work. Highest priority for me, otherwise any really. Seem to have the most content . - - - - - - - Console
  • I've been pretty happy with it. Couple things here and there struck me as odd, like no Sliding Doors, no phones except for the one you keep on you, cars , just little things . That being, that they are not there. Is there a way to keep specific families from aging when you are not playing them? If you know, couldn't hurt…
