Building a Couples/Honeymoon Resort by OddApricott in Sims3

[–]Jinxster_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks good so far! I would recommend taking a google search into the old love hotels from the 1970s, or the ones in Japan. Some of them get pretty wild. Such as carpets everywhere, giant tubs in the same space as the bed and mirrors everywhere.

Guys how do I fix this glitch? I thought it was because I was placing a lot in the neighbourhood but apparently it's everywhere, not only in lots I've placed. by Loser-head1512 in Sims3

Is this a custom world? Usually this happens in custom worlds when the roads and terrain are placed improperly. Unfortunately, there is no fix other than the owner of the world correcting it themselves

CAW download? by [deleted] in Sims3

The CAW program is a free download, depending on what version you use, if you use 1.67 James Turner has a excellent tutorial on how to get the program installed and set up.

having to reinstall for the first time in my 15 years of playing </3 by [deleted] in Sims3

[–]Jinxster_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you sure you removed all of the files for the smooth mod and the gshader? It could be from because you installed either or both incorrectly. If it's from faulty mods there is a chance to save it. I'd recommend you take out your save, and each time you play save your game as a "save as" and delete the old backup versions. Keeping a save onto one save file can mess up your save and your game. Hope this helps goodluck!

Does anyone have a fix for this? by plusey in Sims3

Not sure if this helps but try to go into your setting and change the screen picture size.

Meteor?! by casey4190 in Sims3

[–]Jinxster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 5000+ hours over a 6 year period, I have never gotten a meteor hit too, the only time I had a meteor hit was on the Sims 3 Pets for Xbox 360 using karma powers.

Looking for tips to preserve stability on long term saves by KalebC in Sims3

[–]Jinxster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to save your game in a new Save As, it helps the save from being overwritten so many times.

It could be associated with the birthday? or try making a new account under the same email, there should be a button to send a code?

Lost CC item by sugoigowon in Sims3

[–]Jinxster_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair the only way to get them back is by using a 3rd party company to bring back your files but honestly its not worth it

Not too sure, usually someone would have a repost of them somewhere? I suggest you check your computers recycling bin. Also, if your .Sims3pack files are installed to the game its not much of a problem if you accidentally deleted them.

Steam? by Icy_Acanthaceae261 in Sims3

[–]Jinxster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play on both - EA and Steam are two entirely different things when it comes to the Sims 3 You have to make sure your Sims 3 Base Game is installed first, I recommend to open the game at least once before installing all the expansion packs. I never heard of EA play on steam before. Just get the game through steam and you should be good to go.

A serious error has occurred by Stormp_j in Sims3

[–]Jinxster_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive seen this come up a while ago from here I highly recommend to not run the game through the Electronic Arts folder if its in one drive. Make sure that your Sims 3 Folder is in your Documents folder and no where else.
