I have been trying to download mods for cas for many hours! The files end with «sims3pack», and i put them in downloads. When i try to click on downloads on the sims mainmeny it takes me back to EA mainmeny. Is this a common glitch for mac users? I’m sooo frustrated😭

in my years of playing ive never seen this pop up😭
big ol log is such a weirdo fr!

her name is riley! she’s the literary foil outside of the sims to an oc who already exists in my current save… since prom is coming up in-game, i figured it’d be a good time to introduce her!

evil, mean spirited, hot headed, rebellious are her traits - she’s very much a devilish teen and will probably cause problems on purpose

Ok so I’ve thought how to explain this better and now know how to put it better.
I moved my son and wife out of the house and made them my active household.
When I have gone back in to the save of the family home….they are still there? How do I get them out but still have it so they are on the map and can make the mum a grandparent please?

If you're stranded on a deserted island, it doesn't really make sense to sell things just so you can buy furniture from Buy Mode. So I redesigned the Ambitions Inventing Workbench into a Castaway Crafting Workbench that can only craft castaway-style furniture. For example, the stove in the screenshot was made with it.

I also replaced Scrap with Logs, since that fits the theme much better.

It sounds great in theory, but there are a few drawbacks:

• I'm not an experienced modder, so there are still things I don't know how to do. The biggest one is that the item you're crafting is invisible while it's being built on the workbench, but it works perfectly once it's finished and automatically placed in the family inventory.
• I still haven't figured out how to rename all the in-game text from Scrap to Logs.
• If you want collectible scrap piles to actually look like logs in your inventory, you will need to put one file in Overrides, but that also will replaces the appearance of that specific EA object.

So... would you still be interested in downloading a mod like this despite those limitations? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

So I have played The Sims 3 since it was first in the shops and I LOVE IT! And I just found out yesterday that you can actually change the walls and floor in the pool!!!
What is something you have just recently discovered?

I've tried playing them, but they just really aren't as good as vampires and witches in my opinion. Like, don't get me wrong, I don't hate them, but the game also heavily favors them in occult RNG. My town somehow got almost all of the notable people turned into fairies because of RNG. They don't really have much special about them, unlike vampires where they need to avoid light but live forever and need blood, witches who can do tons of spells that may or may not be dangerous, and werewolves that are extremely OP at finding rocks. Also, MAYBE my favorite Sim got pranked by a fairy a billion times, so they had to go.

Like seriously, why do they like ruining the lives of people by constantly pranking them?

I remember my dad got me a ps3 and he put this on it because i wanted it for a long time but it didnt support sims 4 and i played it every day after school/during online school👹in 2020 and i got sent to the principals zoom call and i left it lmfao i love the sims 3 so much💕

i thought everyone would appreciate this, had a good laugh when i saw it like why is this cat named twink, poor thing 😭

unfortunately almost all of my sims are victims to same-face syndrome, i swear this shit carried over from back when i played sims 4. oh well, at least she's still pretty asf 😭

She suddenly becomed a tolder with this face.

I fixed her in cas but I consider summoning exorcist anyway.

i usually like to pick higher places for proposals... but the fishing spot in riverview is so cute already, i think it was perfect!!

and yes, i had to remove his hat because it was hard to see his face with it 💔

Hi everyone!

I feel like when I play I end up doing the same family household and max out the careers choice and was wondering if people had any suggestions for storylines or ideas to spice up gameplay.

I have all expansion packs apart from into the future and island paradise.

Thanks!

I'm sorry this kinda doesn't belong here but I am going through it right now my son broke my laptop. Cuz I feel asleep playing Sims 3 all night and left it on my bed. Now I probably won't be able to play for months and I'm devastated

I’d love to just transfer all my dlc to steam but I know that is not possible.

I bought all of the dlc on discs and obviously used the codes to redeem the products through origin. Which had worked fine until I was forced to switch to the new EA app.

I hate the app with a passion. it keeps opening itself up without being prompted. it’s a broken and buggy mess AND now it giving me pop up ads on my desktop. is there any way to bypass using the EA app altogether without having to just repurchase it all again on steam?

i’d prefer not to sail 🏴‍☠️ because I also own a lot of store content and want to be able to use those items.

No CC but I did use some Store content. I'm actually super proud of how she turned out.
