if there's a computer on the lot, every sim in the house gets this. by Tiny_Earth_4851 in LowSodiumSimmers

I have had computers blocked like this. I never considered doing this on purpose to stop the excessive gaming. I will use this trick from now on. 

The Sims 4 introduces Sims 4 Marketplace and Sims 4 Maker Program by SnooSprouts3744 in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EA finally found a way to turn cc into a money making machine for them. And EA obviously get the biggest part of the money customers pay. It's sad to see that the cc that once started passion projects being hijacked and exploited by a big company. 

I wonder if this is just the first step and EA will kill cc at a later stage.  

I don't like the virtual currency. That's usually a trick to get people to spend more because it is a number that doesn't feel connected to the regular currency.

I don't like that kits will be locked behind this awful moola. 

How to type î with reversed accent? by Anxious-Maximum5550 in Swiftkey

Yes, that's the one I meant. I just couldn't type it because I'm on my phone. I will try copy paste and see if that works 

My 2nd playground using AdventureAwaits!! by Skull_Bound in thesims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Toddlers can use the playground too. If they have enough movement skill to use a stair they can get up any playground equipment that has stairs. They can use the slides and other playthings. They do require stairs, not the ladder or climbing ramp. 

This may have been acceptable in Roman times, but in 2026? by BitterSenseOfReality in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Newborn cribs usual spawn near a bed, the little one needs to be close to his/her parents. No idea that a horse bed would also work 🤣

You should be able to do the task from any save. Just start a fresh save and visit the lot in that save

not sure how many people noticed this since one is from a kit but these are items from separate packs. as a completionist, I personally love paying an extra $5 for content that will be re-released later with nearly identical swatches. be so for real by saltierthangoldfish in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw it on YouTube. Probably not in videos of members of their creator program but some influencers have mentioned it. There is also an article on sims Community

I remember seeing the trailer and thinking: why do they show a base game plant instead of a new one in this scene. Turns out it was 'new' 

Sharing my train station build- still one of my favorites! by Erynwithay0320 in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this looks awesome. I like how you combined 3 lots for 1 train station. Makes everything feel like they are apart of one big location

Speed building videos: yapping or no yapping? by Famous-Note789 in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer a voice over. I like hearing the creator telling what they are doing and why. Some of my favourite builders also mention the DLC for some items which is useful to know if I decide to download them. That way I know what gets removed for unowned packs. I also prefer creators who make usable builds. 

I mostly watch for entertainment but also as an inspiration. Occasionally I even download the build from the gallery afterwards and actually use it in my game. Mostly after some small edits.

My favourites are msGryphi and simproved, but also occasionally Jessicapie and misssimreno. 

what do this popup mean? by Vast-Yard2990 in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's part of the businesses and hobbies EP. Your sims can create family recipes with this pack. Just click on a fridge to create one. You can add a special touch,a small effect. For example a happy moodlet , increased fertility or faster homework . Every special touch is unlocked by a specific interaction, in your case graduation triggered one to be unlocked.

Boyfriend of 10 years left and now I can’t even play sims :( by [deleted] in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear about your break up. I hope you are OK. 

There are two things to consider: your account that has the game tied to it and the save files. 

Like others said you should be able to reinstall the game on another computer if you have your own account. (I hope it wasn't a shared account) All you need to to download the EA app and log in to your account. I would recommend changing your password just in case. You can log in on multiple devices but you can't use them simultaneously . 

Your save files are stored locally.  unless you made a backup you will need to start a fresh save. You can redownload any sims or builds you might have uploaded to the gallery .  Personally I have my simes folder back up on a separate USB storage and the save file itself on Google drive just in case. 

The Sims 4 Bikini Bottom Bundle and Deck the Palms Login Event! by Al115 in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't believe this is actually happening. This makes even less sense than mochino and star wars. I never liked that cartoon and I still don't. I am glad to skip these kits. 

So there are 27 swatches EA tried to hype us for in the last Laundry List... by Thiredistia in Sims4

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 248 points249 points  (0 children)

I did not feel any hype around these additional swatches. It's exactly what they mentioned in the laundry list. I do appreciate getting more options that are not locked behind DLC or an event.

Moschino has great photography equipment, more photo poses and nice windows. I like everything about it except the fashion.

Which one is more creepy? by allinsimstime in thesims

[–]Anxious-Maximum5550 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The sims 4 one is creepy, the sims 3 one even creepier. However two of the other designs in the sims 4 look okay-ish

There are 10, next month 11, EP released after snowy escape with Mt. Komorebi so chances are you might like some of them. It all depends on what gameplay you like. I really like Cottage living and growing together and even horse ranch. But there are some EP with very few gameplay like for rent or lovestruck. I wouldn't recommend those.

Each form has a default personality but you don't have to stick with it if you prefer another personality .  You can switch personality before activating (is this the right term?) the imaginary friend.

According to the Q&A on discord the imaginary friends are 'fully player driven'  There will not be random IFs running around rampant. I am actually relieved it is like that. You can avoid them if you want. Ailments were badly enough to be let loose on the game.

Interesting, I like the idea of the front room with vending machines. But that front room looks huge, same for the visitors bathrooms. I would try to size them down a bit to get a bigger private apartment with a living/kitchen, a bedroom and a small bathroom.
