The Sims Megathread - Come on in! The house is on fire but it's ok. Have you seen my basement? - Games

I really don't like how like, half of the UI is just spread the fuck out now.

[QUOTE=Zeos;45988787]I really don't like how like, half of the UI is just spread the fuck out now.[/QUOTE]I actually didn't think I'd like the new UCP, but after getting used to it it's quite nice I have to say. A bit minimalistic but I don't mind.

[QUOTE=Jad Hinto;45988913]A bit minimalistic but I don't mind.[/QUOTE] I found this weird to read because you mean it to be a negative thing yet whenever I've said it about something, almost all the time it's a positive.

[QUOTE=BackSapper;45987893]Yes, because I enjoy watching four men take shits and shower before work.[/QUOTE] Oh damn, you too??

I ended up selling my original house for stacks of cash, and now I'm building a new house / mansion. I'm going to get swamped with crazy-big utility bills, and it's probably going to end with my sims becoming homeless, but designing a feasible house with $50k is good fun.

Whenever my sim makes some food he just leaves it on a table and starts to think about some footsteps and a red cross, what does it mean? I'll get a screenshot asap, the path is clear, I don't get it. Also I tried scrambled eggs, salad etc

You have to keep the counter they default to prepping food on clear otherwise they'll put food "behind" the clutter and then they can't get to it to continue. [editline]16th September 2014[/editline] Like I had a tin of cutlery sitting on my bench and my sim apparently couldn't go anywhere near it :v:

I'm guessing its a bug [editline]16th September 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=BuDSpOoNce;45990820]i did a house [/QUOTE] THAT is beautiful...

It's really annoying when I go to brew coffee for my one guy, and then the coffee machine ends up spoiling and making my sims disgusted. It'd be nice if you could pick how many cups of coffee to make.

threw a party and my caterer decided to only make pancakes. [t]http://i57.tinypic.com/2it3985.png[/t] dunno if this is a bug or what but hey, pancakes :v:

So I'm playing the sims 3, and my character can't cook food neither from the fridge, the oven or the microwave. I've checked and everything is accessible, and i've bought food and recipes. What's wrong?

[QUOTE=Chains!;45994305]Do you have a kitchen counter for them to prep on?[/QUOTE] You mean a free one without sink? I think so but i'm gonna check. Brb in 2 hours when the game finishes loading. [editline]16th September 2014[/editline] Yep, that was the problem, thank you!

[QUOTE=Lf751;45925269]I playing the sims 4 and a fire broke out but I have a fire alarm so I was like oh ok the fire fighter's will come, after a while no one came! After nearly losing two sims who tried to put the fire out I googled it. Turns out there's no firefighters! No police or burglars! No repo man! No paperboy! What the flying fuck?[/QUOTE] Just noticed this today. No repairman either. this is a disaster. Surely theyll be added in a patch or expansion? Hoping.

I can't deal with these random crashes. I progressed so much in that time too

[QUOTE=harryh11;45995453]I can't deal with these random crashes. I progressed so much in that time too[/QUOTE] I only ever crash when travelling, so I always save beforehand. Do you get crashes during normal gameplay too?

[QUOTE=loopoo;45995719]I only ever crash when travelling, so I always save beforehand. Do you get crashes during normal gameplay too?[/QUOTE] crashing everytime(or often) after traveling is a common problem for torrented sims 4 games. Think i heard its fixed with the newest crack update, but how would i know..

[QUOTE=Pvt. Martin;45993434][url=http://imgur.com/a/93qzj#0]Someone made the Clue Mansion for Sims 4, complete with characters from the 1985 cult movie![/url][/QUOTE] That house is very well done. Very nice work indeed.

Oh my god, my sim was cooking and I went away from the pc for like half an hour, and then I came back and she was pretty fat.. Why did she spam grilled cheeses for ages???

[QUOTE=Takkuull;45996665]Oh my god, my sim was cooking and I went away from the pc for like half an hour, and then I came back and she was pretty fat.. Why did she spam grilled cheeses for ages???[/QUOTE] Because she's lost control of her life.

[QUOTE=loopoo;45995719]I only ever crash when travelling, so I always save beforehand. Do you get crashes during normal gameplay too?[/QUOTE] Think I've had around 4 random crashes. I've only lost half an hour to an hour of progress each time, so its not that bad really. Crashes I have had: clicking the gallery button, About to go travelling, Clicking a sim to interact, Ordering books from bookshelf I think that's it. They seem to be random enough but I make sure to save frequently

I crashed buying a telescope twice

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbzJaw8fy40[/media] Don't know if any of you are in to Game Grumps, but Ross and Barry just started playing TS4 on Steam Train. I find it hilarious watching other people do really stupid shit with the game, cause I know I would get bored really fast with how creative I am not.
