Sims 3 was one of the top sellers on the Steam Christmas sale, so all the content are back at 66% again, except Supernatural and Seasons which get 50%. [edit] Oh, I guess Sims Medieval's long missing expansion got quietly returned to the store for 66%. It's very buggy and tends to sent you back to the store front page, but it's there under Sims Medieval (just refresh to see it). Rirse fucked around with this message at 19:42 on Jan 5, 2013 |

Single Tight Female posted:If I can get the dang thing to drop into my cart, is it worth buying? I put off getting Medieval on Steam because I thought I'd never get the complete game, then got it as a gift earlier in the sale. Still haven't played very much so I assume I could get some expansion integration fairly easily. Yeah it added some nice content from what I played of it (I bought it before it was pulled). It took me a few tries to get it to stick in the cart when I was testing to see if it was truly back.

Here is a example of the missing Pirates & Nobles expansion being back. Just keep refreshing until it appears. Also takes a few tries to get it to "add to cart", but after that your good to go.

drat, I didn't know that Sims Medieval didn't work in Windows 8. Any solution on fixing that or I probably just stuck trying to run it on my aged laptop?

Actually in Sims 2 how do you get the custom hair to work. I put them in the folder in my documents, but in-game all the hair get replaced by the ugly generic black hair. And yes the custom content option is enabled.

primelaw posted:Certain hairs have meshes that they need in order to work. It's basically the "base" file for the hair. You may or may not have to go to some awful website to download the mesh for the hair you are using. If you're using Modthesims for your sims stuff, I know that most modders would include the link to the file or integrate it into their file. I finally managed to get one of the hairs to work by finding it in the Bodyshop and just duplicating it as a project of mine own.

Weird request, but is there a remake of the old Newbie house from the original Sims for Sims 3? I saw a bunch of remakes of the original Sims houses on Mod the Sims, but nothing for the starting family. [edit] Getting a really annoying bug in Sims 3 all of sudden. My Sim and her baby daughter keep getting teleported in the middle of the yard everytime I try putting her in the crib. They were working fine earlier, but when I had to change her just now the game randomly decided the baby belongs out in the grass. I sold the crib and bought a new one in another spot in the house, yet it still happening. Rirse fucked around with this message at 08:32 on Jan 20, 2013 |

Kenny Rogers posted:It's a bug, and it's poo poo. There's only one fix for it. It managed to fix itself when I started it up today (doing it one last time before hand). Possible it might been the imaginary friend causing it, as it teleported into the crib the moment it was fixed.

Oh wow the 70s, 80s, and 90s DLC DID come to Steam and it caused the base game and expansions to get a midweek madness deal. Guess I'm buying Showtime finally (and maybe High End Loft Stuff since a lot of mods require it for some reason).

# ¿ Jan 22, 2013 19:04 |

I know the stuff pack are useless for the most part and it's better to visit Mod the Sims, but are any worth grabbing while on sale? I like the idea of the new lots from Town Stuff and I seen mods that required Outdoor Life and High End Loft Stuff, so are they needed or just skip them all?

IAmTheRad posted:Most mods should still theoretically work with 1.48. It mostly depends on what EA changed from 1.47 to 1.48. However, ErrorTrap if you use it will NOT work with 1.48. Core mods won't work on different versions of the game. Scripting mods which most mods are might work, but it's not guaranteed. Is that why ever five minutes the Goths keep getting stuck according to Error Trap?

That a weird bug I hit in Sims 3. Somehow my character is friends with...her car. It happened after she tried to take a subway to her detective case and error trap kicked in when she got stuck.

DaisyDanger posted:What exactly is supposed to happen on a full moon? I have had a few zombies spawn on my lot, but they literally stand there until they get caught by ErrorTrap despawns them a few hours later. Pretty much zombies roam town attacking people and trying to attack your plants. During the last one it looked like Gus Hart got attacked and turned into a zombie (he was green and everything), but he was perfectly fine when I had to talk to him for a quest.

Internet Kraken posted:I love how when an alien shows up your Sims don't even seem that surprised by it. They just do relatively normal things with the alien, like playing tag and having water balloon fights at 2 am. Even more bizarre is the first one who did that in my game after a WooHoo switched to farmer overalls and now appears like that anytime he appears. Including just wandering around town. You figure people would make a big deal about a alien dressed as a farmer?

Is there a way to edit a household without switching families (and losing progress with the family you were using)? I been wondering why every five minutes the Goths would get error trap messages, so I had my Sim visit their house. It's a landmine of bad pathfnding, with my character constantly doing the error wave when trying to visit them. And inside their house is no better. Rather not get rid of them when Gunther is about to die from old age and Cornelia got kicked out or died. Maybe I just evict them and place them in a replica of their old Sims 1 house.

Man, the potions you can buy from the alchemy shop is just cruel sometimes. Throwing bees at people or permanently changing a paparazzi into a mummy just feels so mean. That said, after upgrading my Sim to be able to cast spells without a wane, I kinda want to be able to shoot bees out of her hand, Bioshock style.
