I've been playing a cracked version of Sims 4, and honestly I'm kinda scared that EA will find out and ban me from their games kek. I always make sure to play offline. It's not even being banned from TS4 that I care about, it's them revoking my ability to play TS3.
It's EA's fault. I bought all of the TS3 packs because it was a good game, if they actually put effort into TS4 I would be willing to pay for all of the packs too. I want to play, but I'm just not willing to give them anymore money than what I've already spent on TS4 when a lot of my enjoyment from the game comes from mods.

what's happening in your sims' lives, nonnies? i haven't been playing for months but today i randomly decided to start a new neighborhood. i use this townie pool in the neighborhood
https://khal-ulti.tumblr.com/post/675275420922429440/mysims-townie-pool-empty-subhood-with-32 since i usually just let the game generate random ones. tbh i'm surprised how pretty the kids my starter sim had with one of the townie moids turned out to be.
weirdly enough i'm more into my sims when they're a bit on the uglier/unusual side. picrel, she looks absolutely horrendous in the change appearance screen but she's adorable in motion. same for her two sisters. they all got their townie dad's genes, which is a bit of a bummer since her mom had pointy elf ears. maybe they'll come through in later generations though.

Decided to clear out my shelves and found my copy of the sims medieval and i’ve been playing it on my old imac. It’s such a charming game. I understand why it was a flop, you can’t really customize anything but it’s such a hilarious game. The OST is amazing too. If you ever catch it in a thrift store or a sale definitely give it a try. The magician path especially is super fun to play at though I enjoy sending annoying sims to stocks as a monarch and then throwing tomatoes at them too tbh

>>305635>Game playable on desktop and mobile at the same time Honestly, this is the thing that worries me the most about a potential sims 5. There are no mobile games that I trust to be really good computer games. I mean sure, things like genshin impact are mobile and computer games (though I've never played that game before), but I can't imagine that most games would work well being able to be played on literally any device.
I'm super scared what the UI is going to be like, too. I would imagine it's be hard to see everything you needed to on a mobile screen. And because it's a mobile game, you need to make a system where everything can be done by tapping on your screen, with almost no keyboard input. This really simplifies the gameplay and things you can do in a game.
No. 305687
>>305635>Also no talk about actually improving Sims AI, making them feel more real and less dollish compared to Sims 4The AI and sim autonomy in TS4 is pure fucking garbage and one of the game's biggest problems. Maxis already had the autonomy right in the first two games (I'd recommend Leto Mills videos on TS2 if anyone wants to know just how complex the algorithms behind TS2's code were). In TS3 it was changed because the hardware of the time wouldn't have been able to handle a simulation that complex in an open world. TS4 is a mess because of what happened with SimCity and Project Olympus, with TS5 they have no excuse. Instead of creating a game that is ambitious in scope and features, they're making it run on mobile phones.
>I really it fails and some of the alternatives (Life By You, Paralives) succeeds and brings us actual Sims experienceI can see another SimCity situation. Paradox is listening to what players want while EA is too busy thinking of money. It's almost a repeat of what happened in 2013.

I spent months in 2021 making a medieval world from scratch and running it with a bunch of mods to make it feel like a running economy (ani's no fridge mod, making a market that sims have to go and buy from if they want to eat, etc). I used the world Moon Valley and deleted 99% of the lots, built my own, created my own townies that all fit into the world. After playing that world to the point that the population is overrun and my game lags every two seconds, I'm moving on to another passion project. This time my world is going to be a lot more modern (but still with a bit of old charm, because I prefer more old school architecture) and I'm so excited. I've been building lots every single day, it's nice to be excited about this again.
I'm using a blank version of Glenvale County, and making more of a suburban sprawl. I want it to feel pretty full of shops, parks, bars, restaurants. There's so much I learnt from the last time I did this, so excited to apply that and see if I can create a more functional town than the last. Soooo many mistakes I now know to avoid. I feel like this will be a bit more of a challenge than the last one, as Moon Valley was a lot smaller and I had a very clear vision for what I was after, but it also had no roads so I'm excited about Sims being able to travel easier!
There's so much I could say, I'm so excited and honestly I don't think I can play sims in ready made worlds anymore, you really get to know your town in a way you wouldn't otherwise. Do nonnies have any suggestions for my new town? Any lots or custom content that's a must have for trendy suburban shops?
Picrel is a pic of my last town, you might remember me from a few sims threads ago!

Also, I was snooping around San Seqoia and noticed Jay Robles, the Sim that was suspected to be a TIF, is actually an enby, effeminate TIM. Thus meaning as far as I am aware, there is one TIF sim in the game(HSY), but there are two TIMs(Growing Together). The only TIF is an enby, too.
No. 308092
>>308086Actually, no. The way you can tell a Sim's biological sex is by a mix of whether they piss standing up or down, and whether they can have kids or not, as that is how EA encoded bio sex. For example, Jay Robles may have a male marker and a female body, but he can piss standing up and get women pregnant. Celeste, on the other hand, can somehow get others pregnant and pisses sitting down, implying he never got the chop but he tries to blend…poorly. He also is marked as female with a female frame, but EA tried to make him obviously a troon. Ash is marked as female, with a male frame, cannot have children, and if memory serves, pees sitting down. This implies she's a TIF who takes T and got a hysterectomy or tubes tied.

>>308092>Holy fuck an EA janny or programmer must lurk this series of threads kekEA got foiled by their own coding my game. As soon as I installed Growing Together, neighborhood stories killed off all the premades before I even got a chance to go into the world management screen and change it. I have neighborhood stories set so that it doesn't kill off the townies that I like having around but this needs to be done manually for every family. The children were adopted by Tina and Yasemin Tinker.
Separate but related rant
The way neighborhood stories is set to work by default is fucked up. Maxis allowed it to kill townies because the game constantly generates new sims which then causes performances issues and save file bloat. Unless you set it up not to, it will kill any sim in an unplayed household which then results in all the premade Maxis sims being killed off and being replaced by randomly generated sims that look like they got dressed in the dark at a jumble sale. This includes NPC sims with an in game purpose such as with the Cottage Living and Werewolves NPCs. The other problem is that if you don't use MCCC story progression and allow homeless children to be adopted, the game will just delete any children that the killed off sims had unless there's another teen or adult in the house to care for them.

TS2: Pleasantview
I never was a person who liked Strangetown, idk why it has such a following in the sims community. I hated their university La Fiesta Tech, it looked so desolate in comparison to Sim State UniversityTS3: Bridgeport, but tbf that’s only because I didn’t have many expansion packs. I think Lucky Palms, Monte Vista, and Aurora Skies look cool but never got to play them. I just learned about Roaring Heights (the last world they released in TS3 franchise apparently, picrel) and it sounds fucking cool—has anyone played it? It’s Art Deco inspired.
TS4: Windenburg, then Willow Creek and Mt Komorebi. I love the visuals of Mt Komorebi but it has barely any lots and always gets filled up with ugly townies who aren’t Asian which kinda ruins the immersion of it. I wish that it actually functioned like a vacation world in TS2 and that there was more cultural distinction between it and the other worlds. Same with the other worlds actually. It would be cool if there were traditions/holidays for specific worlds.

That's usually my requirement for S3 worlds. No custom rabbithole, no playtime. My only exceptions are Lucky Palms and Roaring Heights, the only EAXIS worlds I will touch
>>304705My top three? I'm assuming it has to be from a Sims game with actual neighborhoods or worlds, which excludes Sims 1, and also have to be EAXIS. Going by this, my number one is Lucky Palms, two is Downtown (technically a subhood and I have a desert default replacement that makes it essentially a whole new nhood anyways), and three is (oddly enough) Henford-on-Bagley. HoB only gets number three because it's the only Sims 4 world I can take my Sims to get groceries and make pies to give to everyone that isn't gruelingly high effort. If HoB didn't have that, I'd give it to Moonwood Mill because I like the idea of making the same Sim a methed up murder hobo in other playthroughs. I usually love Desert and City worlds but Sims 4 does both dirty and custom hoods won't be a thing until TMex actually gets the massive mod working, if ever.

I wanna try getting into this franchise again what is the best way to do it? I played sims 4 but its too boring/easy. I played Sims 2 but thought it was stressful. Should I give TS2 another chance? It felt stressful to me because I lost complete control and couldn't regain it. I know the point is that you just watch things unfold but it was hard to explore the world, get to know other townies, focusing on skills, focusing on job, etc when everything felt like it was falling apart. But maybe by playing it more and becoming more familiar with the mechanics it starts feeling more fun.
On the other hand I have never played Sims 3 so is it better to try that instead? I have heard it's harder than TS4 but easier than TS2 so maybe it hits that sweetspot

The franchise has been cash-grabby since the earliest expansions, but it was disappointing to see that EA could just scale-back features to the release state of Sims 4 and get away with it. But why should they try to improve things when the success of Sims 4 has shown that when you have the monopoly on life-sim genre, the core audience is going to hog up your shit no matter how low-effort it is.

>>310639yes! she's a regular female sim with "they/them" slapped on top for diversity points. she's also a stuck up snob based on her traits so I think I found a nemesis for my evil sim.
>>310544fair enough kek, every time there's an ugly sim i send my evil sim to shoot them with the extreme violence mod. was so mad when sacrificial added a block in HSY so you can't beat up students at school. i understand the no guns and knives bit but the rule against violence period, including non-deadly interactions that seemed to be made specifically for teen sims like bullying, is retarded. if i understood python i'd unlock bullying again kek

>>310790The latest version is all you should need because it will install all updates including those that were previously released.
Another thing to try is to run the game in compatibility mode
Right click on the executable > Properties > Compatibility > Tick box "Run in compatibility mode" > select Windows XP (Service Pack 3)
Make sure that you are installing the game with administrator privileges
Right click on installer > Run as Administrator
Are you installing the game from Origin/EA app or are you using a "acquired" copy?

>>308338i tried roaring heights and i wanted to love it, it's a really nice world, but the tower building tops are a pain in the ass if you play sims that live in or go to those buildings (which btw a lot of them are decorated horribly, extremely underutilized space for example). the tops are not actual shells that can be built inside like in bridgeport, they got lazy and just made the tops of the towers to show in map view but they constantly obscure your view in live mode and there's no permanent way to avoid it. i tried using the building shells from bridgeport and decorating the interiors all nice to replace them and then the game kept refusing to properly save when i tried and would just load forever, so i gave up
it's a lovely world but in playing i'd either avoid those buildings or try to fix them up hopefully without your game crashing.

>>313185for sims 3 i have a few. bridgeport for sure, isla paradiso would make it if it didn't lag so much and so would roaring heights if more effort was put into the builds.
sims 4, i find myself drawn to san myshuno and mt. komorebi. tartosa is really gorgeous too.

theres got to be a terf inside maxis cause i just got growing together and you couldnt make this 'trans woman' look more like a man. the fakeboi in the other household looks like a malnourished rat too. gross that the sim in picrel has the 'can breastfeed' option on yes but also 'can impregnate other sims'.

I wish EA would go back and edit all of the earlier pre-made sims so their lore would be accurate to the new features. Like compatibility in the game is randomized each new save so you get the BFF household sometimes like picrel which makes no sense considering Liberty and Travis realistically should get along pretty easy with those traits, but their likes and dislikes ruin it because one of them dislikes cerebral sims which gives them bad compatibility ergo, way harder to boost their relationship (I had another save where Summer had awful compatibility with both Liberty and Travis which caused them to both dislike Summer after I tried to make them friends without cheats). I know I can just change their likes and stuff, but I hate that much micromanaging, especially since almost every pre-made sim would require it.
