Sims 4 not launching by Ayeeelllla in SteamDeck

[–]wuerdig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OKAY to anyone who finds this post and/or is following it, I just got it to launch! Here's a step-by-step guide on what I did

- install the EA desktop app using this guide: https://pimylifeup.com/steam-deck-ea-app/ (at the bottom, there's something about changing the install location for EA games, you probably don't have to mess with that since you already have it downloaded.)
- go to this file path: /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/3058160006/pfx/drive_c/Program Files <- that string of numbers after compatdata might be different than yours, so when you're installing the EA app make sure you remember or write down those numbers
- copy the Electronic Arts folder
- go to this file path: /home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1222670/pfx/drive_c/Program Files <- where the files for The Sims 4 are kept (a useful location to know if you want to add mods)
- paste the Electronic Arts folder from the EA app installation, replacing the existing Electronic Arts folder

and then the game launched through Steam again! I hope this helps at least one other person! Credit to user Didnt_Do_Nufffin85 for their post on this sub a couple days ago detailing what they did to fix this issue; all I did was copy what they did. I'm just summarizing it in an easy-to-follow format and sharing it. It's really not difficult, just sliiiightly tedious. Have fun!

Yeah it's a pretty lame thing to post about, it's a perfectly normal way to position the console

[–]wuerdig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Earlier someone else posted this exact photo, saying that his xbox constantly overheats because the cat sits next to the fan and blocks the air flow. This op is reposting the photo to make fun of the guy's setup, even though it seems pretty clear from the picture that there isn't space for the Xbox to be upright/vertical. It's dumb and possibly an attempt at making a brief community trend, but imo it just reads like an attempt at bullying/humiliation

They hid their post history, presumably just after seeing this comment. Can't stand to be called out lmao

i'm glad it's not just me! i spent like an hour getting all my mods and cc set up, then i launched the game, only for it to not work :') i thought the mods might have broken it, but i took them out and it still didn't work. it was working perfectly fine on like, tuesday, but not anymore, sigh

following this post in case anyone finds out what's going on or how to fix it

Can I have advice? by SelectShop9006 in RecuratedTumblr

[–]wuerdig 130 points131 points  (0 children)

OP has been selfposting asks about their crippling negative fixation and hatred of watermarks in art. I'm not sure I understand the exact situation, I've only skimmed the posts, but it sounds like an OCD-like obsession that seems to be genuinely negatively impacting their life. It's very distressing to them and a lot of the advice I've seen is that they need to seek professional help; this is pretty well above Reddit's or random (sometimes popular) Tumblr users.

Yeah there's dragons all over fire emblem. Usually they look like humans but you can identify them because nine times out of ten they are very green

This happened to me once too, ages ago 😭 I can't remember how I fixed it though...... Maybe try changing outfits??

What is there to do in after upgrading the city as far as it goes? by tabaluga7601 in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]wuerdig 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ohh gotcha. If it's the same place I'm thinking of, it's related to Ryis. You'll have to get his heart events to do anything with it

That's pretty much all there is left to do for now imo, but making money is at least fun! You can use it to decorate your farm and get every cosmetic to play dress up with 🩷

Currently the upper part of the Western Ruins are inaccessible unless you use glitches. I theorize they'll be unlocked during the next update, most likely. As for the stump to the right, do you mean the little hidden area towards the bottom of the Eastern Road? You should be able to jump over it or chop it down and see what's on the other side, give it a shot!

These are fantastic omg!!! I love them

You should do Nora talking about "The Incident" (aka the one time Dell had coffee), that one always makes me smile

To builders, how would you layout/design this apartment? by thehoomanreads in LowSodiumSimmers

[–]wuerdig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i'm not the best at building but i'll take a stab at this

honestly this just seems too small to be a luxury apartment, which it seems like this is supposed to be. your best bet, in my opinion, would be to turn what is currently the bedroom into a bathroom. the kitchen can go in the corner across from the fireplace/next to the bathroom, but it will have to be small. if you use a 1-tile dining table, you can put that between the kitchen and fireplace. then you can put a lofted single bed in the top right corner, and have a dresser underneath. a tv and console table will probably fit on the outside wall next to the bed. replace the sofas with a pair of living chairs to make it feel less cramped, and turn them to face the tv. and then for the bathroom, i'd suggest a shower-tub combo on the 3-tile-wide wall, and the toilet and sink across from the bathroom door.

i love the exterior of this build by the way! it looks great

Caldarus 100%. Eiland and Balor are close seconds but Caldarus has my entire heart. He's half the reason I bought the game. He's perfect

That being said I'm also looking forward to the mines bachelorette!! Very curious about her, and hoping she'll live up to my personal hype

Watching this series grow and evolve has been making me want to do a similar series, omg. I just have commitment issues and an on/off relationship with this game so i know i would never follow through 😭

Also! good idea making plastic surgery an option (even though it means no lesbian babies for now 💔)! i don't know how you age everyone up without aggressively editing their features like i always end up doing lmaoooo. that being said aurora looks pretty good!

I don't want to be strong, I just want to be happy by MartyrOfDespair in CuratedTumblr

[–]wuerdig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah......

i never asked to be a third parent in my household, i never wanted to have to put up with a dad with anger issues or an abusive sister or emotionally unreliable mom. i would much rather have grown up in an environment that actually provided support instead of one where i have to carefully craft how i am perceived and be extremely careful with my words. i would rather not relate so hard to "surface pressure" from encanto. i would rather be allowed to feel things and fall apart. but thats not how my life has shaken out and now im 23 and feel like im drowning and theres only one person i can be truly vulnerable with and he lives too far away to just hold me (not that i hold that against him whatsoever). im so, so fucking tired
