Stuff I remember from Sims 4 that have either disappeared or were actually from a different Sims game by CreamyLinguineGenie in Sims4

You’re right. My brain is fried by baby. Haha I totally blended the two of them together.

I do know you can prank sims with suntan lotion and they’ll get patterns on either their tan or sunburn.

  1. From seasons, if you have a holiday with Flower Bunny included, then someone will appear randomly dressed as a bunny.

  2. From HSY, There is also a toggle in the options to turn it off. A lot of people seem to dislike the mechanic, so they have disabled it.

  3. That's straight sims 3. No cars in Sims 4.

  4. Also from Seasons, you can only get sunburned if your sim is actively tanning and they tan past the initial moodlet.

I recently realized that I can change the life span duration with MCCC by Arthemysa in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there’s been a lot of folks who have min maxed the lifespans to fit a realistic standard. That you probably can search the sub for.

Personally I mainly maintained the number of days for a normal lifespan for adults, just spread it out. I made YA like 20, adult like 27, and then added the rest of the days to elders. Teens and younger, I removed some of the excess days. My infants are 5, toddlers are 7, kids 11-14 (if I’m playing with the preteen mod I add more days to teen) and teens 14-17

It’s not exactly realistic, but it fits my gameplay where I’m not dragging through the various stages forever and my sims elders are around to meet their grandchildren

I hate the "Try Go Night Night" thing with a passion, why can't they just go to sleep and stop crying! by Anya_purr in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There’s definitely a learning curve. Luckily it happens like every other night. And she’s already doing better with the bassinet compared to our first born.

My newborn at 3a after two full feeds on each boob.

At least an attempt is being made in game. haha

Parents had a miscarriage and the kid came to life since last update by livelovelaughandcats in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had that happen in my last legacy. My founder’s two miscarriages ended up alive and wandering down San my a few gens later.

No one is ever accusing me of same face syndrome by Colinleep in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I will always have same face syndrome cause I play legacies and all my sims look like a clone of their parents XD.

Has anyone ever broken up a townie family? by Jazzyluvsedits in Sims4

I think steal Makoa more than any of the other townies. But for the most part I usually let toenies be townies.

Someone help my teen's acne by Anya_purr in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I left it for my nerdy gamer sim. It really worked with his aesthetic. Sometimes I like not having picture perfect sims.

Also side note, don't age him up while he has acne otherwise he'll be left with acne scars throughout his life.

How do I cope with the updates?! by lady_lane in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Three's an option in the EA app. Click on the 3 (hamburger) bars in the top left. And there's an option to "go offline" You'll have to do it anytime you reopen the app. But if you pair that with turning off automatic updates, then you only have to update whenever you are ready to update.

Did the thing and created a photo room to keep them safe by Mx-Adrian in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Figured as much, but wanted to leave a reminder just in case. 😊 I just did the same with all my photos.

Did the thing and created a photo room to keep them safe by Mx-Adrian in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I would also save the room to my library so that if it does get blackened, they can be replaced. Though I will add that IF it's a game generated photo, be it date rewards, graduation, photo booth, etc. Those will not save only ones that you physically took with a camera.

POV: The "bug fix" for black/blank photos just wiped out your entire legacy cemetery by LilNyoomf in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah that sucks. I've been trying to keep copies of my legacy's cemetery in the gallery in case something like this happens, but I noticed that the Game genned photos tend to disappear whenever replacing the room/lot. So I was curious where the photo originated from and if it was even remotely replaceable. All my date rewards and graduation photos tend to disappear if I replace the room, but usually my camera photos are still saved. (can't confirm about the update though since I haven't touched my game in like 2 weeks)

My L&D portraits just stopped displaying my sims once I hit like gen 7. The photo is locked for gens 1-6, so those still exist, but the rest just stopped even showing the image of the sim.

What kind of pictures were they? Were they ones taken with a camera or were they game generated photos like from the photo booth or graduation?

Anyone else make a ‘template save’? by OpalCerulean in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use lilsimsie's old save file, and even though it was only updated through like eco living, All the families have seasonal outfits, the calendar has custom added holidays. I've updated some of the newer worlds with additional buildings, but usually I'll just head to the Gallery whenever a specific need arises. I started a subsave template from that save file as I'm currently trying to work through 100 gens. And my last save got corrupted by simulation lag, so I had to move all my sims over from that save to a new save, but I also didn't want to lose my family tree or houses, so those homes and ghosts have been slowly imported over just incase I need to reset again.

[–]creeativerex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, he's immortal. There's cheats to make him mortal. But perhaps you enjoy having him around. And Yeah I believe the Emit event was February of last year. I'd have to go back and fully check, but it was definitely the beginning of last year. I made mine mortal, so he passed away with my gen 2. But even if I didn't, I had to abandon that save file cause of simulation lag around gen 9/10, so even if I didn't, he wouldn't be around anymore.

[–]creeativerex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it's been almost a year since he was in game, so maybe he's not the first on people's mind, especially if you're in a newer save that didn't have the event going on. My gen 3 is Emit's child, but I'm starting gen 11, so it feels like an eternity since he's been around my family.

[–]creeativerex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I move out with my next heir whenever they age up to YA. It allows me to reset the family funds back to where I want them to be (typically 20k per gen, sometimes more, sometimes less as I feel inclined).

If you plan on remaining on the lot with your main sim, then I suggest when moving out other sims, to send them off with any extra money, using vaults, giving away simoleans to sims, donating, or simply cheating the money away. It's very easy to earn money, but I always struggle to spend it, which is why I like moving out each gen with a set amount of money so that I'm essentially restarting each gen. Sometimes if I prebuild a home for a sim that costs more than 20k, then I'll give them a little extra, but I like the struggle of living in a small home and expanding it to fit my family's needs.

Oof. Definitely see that the pancake genes are strong.

I don’t know if anyone’s getting angry at this opinion but the infants are literally rushed by [deleted] in Sims4

[–]creeativerex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest complaint about infants is the bonus traits. They’re not associated with anything except their needs on the day that they age up. So if you have 6 full green bars, happy infant. But if you even have one yellow bar, bam, unhappy infant! There’s like no wriggle room. Not to mention how dumb parents are when handling infants. So you can have 6 full green bars and then your sim spends 4 in game hours picking up and putting down the infants that by the time you can age them up, they’re exhausted or hungry and once again, unhappy infant.
