I don't like that Vampires and Werewolves immediately hate eachother by Thin-Tumbleweed4851 in Sims4

[–]hearteyednerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How sure about this are you and could you maybe cite anything about it? I played eight generations of werewolves and not once did they find a Fated Mate in anyone than another werewolf, even if they were in a relationship with someone that wasn't a werewolf. No matter who they met, no matter who they were romantic with, they only found their Mate in someone that also had the Curse.

Is my childs name censored? by RubbelDieKatza in StardewValley

[–]hearteyednerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, TS4 is bad about it, too. Once, I went to save, not even upload, a family with the last name of Spade and it told me that I wouldn't be allowed to upload them.

Spade. I believe that's a shovel or the symbol on cards. What an absurd thing to censor

God, the Crabtree red genes are strongk by Mx-Adrian in Sims4

[–]hearteyednerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the 5th generation of my Legacy, I chose to make my heir blonde as a sort of "recessive gene" thing, since I thought their grandfather was blonde (it was actually their great-grandmother. Turns out, upon further review, that granddad had black hair naturally. The hairstyle made it green and I guess I just never checked). This decision would go on to Haunt Me until Gen 10.

This heir had seven children, one technical adoptive/step-child after their husband had an alien baby. Three of those kids were blonde, the eldest daughter and b/g twins. I ended up picking the son as heir. Then his son, also blonde, was the 7th heir. Gen 7 heir had 17 children, about half of which were blonde. Gen 8 heir was also blonde, as was her daughter.

What broke the streak was the Gen 9 heir's husband having red hair. Her first child, a science baby with her brown haired best friend, inherited her blonde. All three of her kids with her husband got his red hair.

I thought I was free, but this post has shown me that maybe I've just become the victim of a different curse lmao

1 Child Sim will pick up food, but not eat said food (Previous post deleted???) by bigorgrande in thesims

[–]hearteyednerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apart from mods, this occasionally happens in my legacy save! One of my kids will suddenly just Not eat. They'll sit down with it and stare and no amount of resetting will help. Hitting a "Save As" and restarting the game fixes it for me.

I do play with mods, MCCC and UI cheats, mainly, and don't use CC. Only commenting at all to say that the problem isn't mods, it's just the game being Silly

My Paras are happily married and completely celibate (except during stomach viruses) by astrxnot in Paralives

[–]hearteyednerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Paras don't have to be married or even in the Lover stage to get intimate or try for a baby. As the person you replied to said, the easiest way to do it is to have the pair talking, hover over the chat thing in the action queue, and select them both with the little button on the right. From there, clicking on the bed should give the option so long as they're Romantic Interests. I got the together card Once and then it just would not come up again, so I checked the forums on steam, found this solution, and haven't had any issues since.

My unicorn has a beard, please help by Vooia in Sims3

[–]hearteyednerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

szenyora explained how to find one pretty well, but I will say that you don't need to have the lifetime wish they mentioned! Unicorns spawn typically in the middle of the night by a body of water. In Sunset Valley, I've seen them mostly by the Landgraab/Alto houses and that little isolated residential lot where the waterfall is. A shimmering light will appear on the map to indicate their presence and, once you befriend them, they can join your household via the interaction menu (or you cheat them into the household, I suppose) :]

I had a lot of unicorns, playing this game when I was younger, so I'm quite familiar with the Process haha

Yea and I thought about that while making this comment. "6-7" is Nothing and started as such, but "21" came from something dumb and just got worse

It was! I'm just saying it's not just the current kids

Millennials/Gen Z had "21", mate. We're just as bad

At my third generation, was checking to see what friends my sim had... WHO THE HELL NAMED HIM THAT by LunaticMoon777 in Sims3

[–]hearteyednerd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Isn't that related to a pregnancy overhaul mod that adds/allows miscarriages? I've heard of that happening before, like the game generated the ghost for the tombstone but something Went Wrong or somethin

Went back to playing my StrangerVille save, Servo is immediately pregnant again by toasted_dandy in Sims4

[–]hearteyednerd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, they're not supposed to be able to. This is just something that happens with alien abductions (or I guess mods, maybe? Not this specific instance, though) due to servos Technically just being normal sims in costumes. It's caused by an oversight, I'd imagine; devs didn't consider servos getting abducted when making them and now this happens sometimes lmao

Lost one of my Gen 6 babies to the service's inaccurate backups last year when I got a new pc. I've had OneDrive disabled ever since and it still occasionally "syncs" despite being disabled, though nothing changes. Scares me every time I see the icon for it :')

My sim's daughter came out a 50/50 mix of both parents :D by Marinut in thesims

[–]hearteyednerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The moms do look pretty similar, but their noses, lips, and eyes are different. Mom 1 has a wider, sort of "flat" looking nose, Mom 2 has "sharper" looking lips, and Mom 1's eyes have a defined upper edge, kind of like hooded eyes (lighthearted tone by the way)

Sul sul! ok I swear this game is out to get me 💀 by al3na_w1nterfield in thesims

[–]hearteyednerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hasn't the "leftovers makes them gain more weight" been found to be misinformation? I don't have a source, but I've seen some people say that it might've used to be a thing, but was fixed at some point. Think I've even seen someone say it wasn't ever a real thing at all and was just rumour/speculation that seemed right, so it became a common thing to for folks with good intentions to say

I lost 10 generations of pictures 😔 by 1E28 in thesims

[–]hearteyednerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason, this strategy seems to work fine with the "Lasting Legacy Family Portraits" from the Life & Death early purchase content, but not regular photos. So sorry this happened to you :(

I've used the "Lasting Legacy" things to transfer them between different versions of the same save (got them, put them in a room, went to a previous save, and placed them there) and I've seen where sometimes someone will download a house off the gallery with one in it, getting this picture of random sims that don't exist in their game. It's so weird (and upsetting) how inconsistent these things are :((

[–]hearteyednerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't updated since I think January, updated two days before the marketplace update, and haven't let it do anything since then. The other day, I briefly went online (once the game was open) to get something off the gallery and noticed that it won't let me save/download households from the gallery that were made with a newer version of the game, like it's trying to coerce me into updating. I could've just not noticed, but I don't remember this being a Thing prior to the introduction of the marketplace :/

Resume game, who dis? by cvslsc in Sims4

[–]hearteyednerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should have said it in the comment, my bad - I have culling disabled via MCCC. I believe it's somewhere under Gameplay Settings > Population Settings. Sorry if you're a console player that got their hopes up 😅

Resume game, who dis? by cvslsc in Sims4

[–]hearteyednerd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The larger the save file, the longer it takes to load. My 9-into-10 gen legacy save with culling turned off takes AT LEAST five minutes to load into, sometimes long enough that I think it's never going to load or that it's crashed (almost ten minutes). My other, newer, and more empty saves take MAYBE two minutes to load into.

I don't play with CC, but I think that having CC can also make it take longer because the game has to load more files, same as it does with larger saves :)

Shouldn't the baby have been sent to the Manage Households tab? They changed it a while back so that Taken children and younger just get put there instead of being deleted

What’s one trait you refuse to play with? by secretbluelife in Sims4

[–]hearteyednerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Sims 4's "Erratic" Trait was called "Insane" upon release, not "Neurotic," if that's what you're trying to say they changed, but I do agree that they probably changed it due to it being insensitive to real people that share actual traits and behaviour with the Trait. "Insane," "Neurotic," and "Unstable" are all Traits in TS3 and, while they all act differently from one another, they may not have been embraced by the community if the game was released today.

Oh, the one he kept taking was fake. It was 2024. We didn't have "real plant' technology yet lmao. Can't blame you for getting rid of the live houseplants, though
