The Twitter leak referred to has been deleted so it was probably a fake.

The first 3 letters of the second name would be the censored one I believe! It's the name of a bird. like a Great ... but also a slang word usually used in the plural for a pair of ....! or an alternative, as in don't be a silly ... ! English slang. o:) Maybe they could get round this by us putting the name in quotation…

There used to be someone older than me a few years ago on here but I was born in 1942 and there were still V bombs around. There's something about The Sims that keep one's brains youthful but I play it less and build houses more and get annoyed that there aren't enough longer dresses and comfortable jeans! Crosswords,…

If it's anything like KPop it won't suit me. I'd rather a Sims game built around Terry Pratchett's Ankh Morpork, fun and diversity on all fronts, witches, wizards and magic and even Shakespeare's actors all around. Beats J K Rowling by miles! :) It would have to be for over 18s though so us older players can get more…

Remember these are adverts. The Sims games also had adverts that showed more than was available in the finished game.

These days if we brought in cars at last, I can see them mowing down horses everywhere as the routing isn't too good in the game already! I quite liked the old car that had to be repaired though. I would have preferred Sims Rush hour to go in that direction with rideable cars and racing tracks and playable Sims, instead of…

What it means probably, is that they didn't come up with a deal either side was satisfied with. Elon has plans in the gaming department I believe. He's already allowing podcasts on X. Still, X's value has gone down so far, to an estimated 15 billion dollars from 44!

I won't say I'm old either as I don't feel it but I remember a bomb coming down in the local London neighbourhood as a toddler! B)

Would be nice to tie in San Myshino with this and become the landlord of one of those tower blocks. I doubt they'll do that though. All these new packs mess up past ones for me. Even my old favourite Sims families change sex and colour when I try to use them.

What I certainly don't want is an online Cloud like OneDrive messing up all my saves. By the time Sims 5 comes out I hope EA will give me the option to save my 'saves' where I please and not where they and Microsoft or Mac please. :s
-
I remember when playing the early Sims games someone was advised to roll the view all over the lot to add all the items. Not sure if that works now.
-
I was very lazy. I took a kitchen someone else had made and built a house around it. Saved a lot of time!
-
I have fond memories of the hotels in Sims 2. I never used them in Sims 3 and those who think they can make hotels easily in Sims 4 obviously didn't play Sims 2. I loved making my own hotels in that.
-
I had that yesterday and as far as I'm concerned the look of the game library in the EA App is a mess. I managed to get linked by using the Start menu EA App recovery. Sometimes the EA updater works. It could be something to do with the latest Windows 10 update on my own machine. Using a direct link to the Sims 4 game was…

If they're aiming at many types and abilities of machines being able to play the game they are definitely going in for keeping the game in 'the Cloud.' That means keeping it online whilst playing and only downloading what your computer will manage. btw: How can you play with a friend who's bought packs you don't have? The…

I wish to change my mind to Meh! I like creating horses, houses and Sims but that's all. I've given up playing the game entirely. It's all too big and complicated and a right mess. Too much is set up in the new packs already and no room for builders unless you delete the specially created lots. I lose patience. It also…

This is the first time, since installing the Ranch pack, that I'm getting crashes, more like blips error notes on the screen, in the game and they come if I send my Sim out to other worlds sometimes or overload of things done. They don't crash the game totally though and seem to remember where I've got to in the game. The…

I do miss the internal laptop DVD drives. External CD/DVD drives are quite cheap but you have to get one provided with the new Windows 10/11 drivers. I use mine more and more as I find the sound is better when watching films than doing so via TV. I've started to lose my hearing a bit and it's closer to me. I had to buy the…

I'm wondering what to do with all my packs too. I've got them from The Sims onwards until I started getting the downloads for Sims 4 after the first two packs. All the Prima guides too. I've got some old laptops that could play them provided I keep offline and could find the power connection cords. Has anyone else got a…
-
They have to be fairly basic don't they as they only contain the Base Pack and the one being downloaded? New players won't know anything about cheats either. I've usually hash tagged no cc, no mods etc if I upload to the Gallery. Given up now though as the Gallery is too big. The Ranch builds are very good I'm finding but…
-
I prefer to make my own now as I find I cannot change some downloaded pre-made ones and they have to fit in with my families.
-
This is the first pack that I am keeping all the original Sims in. They look so interesting to play. The rest of the packs in my new Save, I'm importing my own made Sims in, merging in CAS and evicting some of the originals when I've got hold of their house!
-
I've just noted. 'EA Play' doesn't have a verified blue tick, neither does 'EA UK'. They don't seem to like Elon's way of getting paid. 'The Sims' gets a gold tick though. PS: Just noticed too that Barbie has a doll with an artificial leg, whilst I was Twitter browsing. If Barbie has one why not one in Sims 4?

I'd love a time travel EP, maybe one with the Medieval theme of rulers, castles, turrets and circular stairs to go up them. If you have the Ranch EP, horse's panoplies and jousting grounds, even dragons to train or have as pets if they give it a fairy-tale theme. New deaths by wild boar or bear, ribbons to give out to your…

Thanks @simgirl1010 That's just what I was looking for. <3

A beautiful horse and I doubt if EA gives us a horse trotting like that. It's unique to them. <3 Jasper 366 was so popular that he was given a special goodbye when he was 25 and many of his offspring were brought in behind him. He died this year at the age of 28 and always in the care of the same owners.

I'm spending the time until tomorrow looking at some of my favourite Friesian horses on YouTube. Especially Jasper 366, called King of the stallions because of his introducing marvellous movement, a huge influence on breeding and many offspring, Jurre 495 Friesian champion for many years, Nane 492 Horse of the Year 2022.…

Can anyone point me to a video of how you can make the ceilings please? I'm finding them a bit difficult so a step by step would help! I've seen the icons and tried, but looking up at them?
-
There would be a problem with which African country Maxis would choose for the world, unless they made it for Apartments where you could choose different types of hotels or houses in different areas off the grid. You could be a resident or a visitor there. It would make a good place to collect photos of various animals for…

I'd advise everybody not to do as I did. I thought I'd buy a really good gaming laptop at the start of Covid, having saved from not going out. I tried to buy online from HP but kept failing at the buying stage. After trying several attempts I got in touch with my bank and they said they had queried the cost, trying to save…
Howdy, Stranger!
