Assuming that you have followed [URL="http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files/Setup_and_Files"]these instructions.[/URL] Did you download the right version? There is one for steam and one for everyone else.
Well, where can I get these error-fixin' mods then?

These mod descriptions are pretty bare-bones... :v:
[QUOTE=Jamie1992GSC;39339858]I hear of this mod a lot but never really find any kind of features list. Does anyone have one?

Might start doing some machinima for Sims 3. Used to do a bit for Sims 2 and enjoyed it.. probably what got me into real life short film making and wanting to direct/edit.

Anyone know where I can get space themed stuff? If not, I could have a weird setting of modern furniture inside a space station :v:
God I hate how buggy The Sims 3 is.
I've been trying to play some today on Bridgeport and am getting that horrid lag / freezing bug every day in-game.
I've currently got both OverWatch and ErrorTrap installed but they don't seem to be handling the lag I'm getting.
It handled it the first day I got lag by fixing someone not routing properly but on the second day it just keeps lagging with it not fixing it.
I haven't had a chance to try another neighborhood, would it just be Bridgeport? I hope it is, it's completely unplayable even with the "fixes".

You probably either have too many mods or your graphics settings are too high.
[QUOTE=Mr. Tripp;39344353]You probably either have too many mods or your graphics settings are too high.[/QUOTE]
There is a reason Bridgeport is often nicknamed "Bloatport" by various people who play it. The high rises are a nice addition and such, but they're way too close to each other and the parks in the neighborhood are pathfinding killers for the NPCs.
I recommend downloading [url=http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/295247.page]Los Aniegos[/url] as it is a mix between Bloatport and Starlight Shores without the horrid freezing issues.
First thing to do in Bridgeport is to delete all the subway stations. That'll eliminate half the pathfinding delays.

Is there a non-Late Night edition with Pets?
[QUOTE=ijyt;39347785]Is there a non-Late Night edition with Pets?[/QUOTE]
Nope, since you get city assets in Late Night it uses those assets in building the town.
If you want a good custom neighborhood that should work with the base game and the expansions, try [url=http://ctnutmegger.com/TS3/TS3Worlds.htm]Old Town[/url].

Wow, it's the Sims 1 neighborhood... I'm having a nostalgia attack
Is there any good worlds that don't require expansion packs? I tried river view and its not exactly what I'm looking for.

What are the hors d'oeuvres? Rat brains? :v:
[QUOTE=Atlascore;39151268]Just link the LGR videos, they summarize the expansions pretty well.
Also, put a warning in the OP about Showtime and how it's the worst expansion made for anything ever, and that you should not buy or play it under any circumstances.[/QUOTE]
Showtime isn't as shit as sweet treats. [I][B]NEVER FORGET[/B][/I]

One time I got so bored I made a farm where the "family" had to go out and grow crops all day to make their money.
Of course this was a slave plantation so it's completely legal in the Sims's universe.
Fuck I've been browsing this thread on and off and it's making me want to blow $30 I don't have.
There are some pretty good deals on Amazon, too

now with pets you can have one sim patrol the lot on horseback.
Makin' Magic is the best Sims 1 expansion.
Ah yes, just another day living as my ageless, four-star celebrity musician, master sculptor, in my favorite house I've had in the sims as of yet. Here are some pictures of my lovely abode.
The foyer, my grand entrance. One day I'll sculpt something I like enough to replace the thinker.

My living room, where I won't lie, I don't spend much time, but it is a great place for guests.
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ceupF59.jpg[/IMG]
Ultra-modern dining area (complete with Branden's ability to leave dishes! Fame and fortune don't rid of laziness, as you can see)
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GDdCHEG.jpg[/IMG]
My kitchen complete with fridge of the future and stone oven, one more level until I master cooking!
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Dfk8bCX.jpg[/IMG]
The second best area of my house (as a musician), I might get a white grand piano instead though. As I was taking this shot: *Uh oh* I heard that blasted noise when something breaks. Branden what did you break now!?

He broke the shower, left it and went to play arcade games! What a bum!
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/g1tm668.jpg[/IMG]
My sim in my favorite room where I sculpt. Get off that arcade system and fix the shower!
Well, lastly the bedroom (keeping consistent with the dish on the table and broken shower, an unmade bed), which I will be remodeling. Any suggestions?
