Not Connecting?
Hi, last night I bought the new Royalty Expansion Pack as well as the on-sale Eco Lifestyle. But when I went to boot the game, the two packs were not showing up. In Manage Worlds, it said the two worlds had not finished downloading yet. I went into the EA App; it showed they had downloaded. I uninstalled them and redownloaded them and got the same reaction. I repaired. I cleared the cache. I restarted the EA App. I restarted my computer. Still, the two new worlds were faded and said they would show up when they finished downloading. (Meanwhile, at least one of the times I restarted the game, I did get the little pop-up with the Welcome to Eco/Welcome to Royal guides, so idk how the worlds didn't show up.) This morning, I tried again, and nothing. So I uninstalled and reinstalled the whole game and then each expansion pack and stuff pack and whatever else, one by one. Now I can't load any of my saved games because it's claiming that none of my packs have downloaded - even though in the EA App, they all claim to have downloaded and to be installed. When I try to open the Download Manager inside the game, it says that I'm offline and asks if I want to connect. My Mac is connected to the internet - I'm submitting this form using it right now - and when I look at the Account menu at the top of my screen when I'm in the EA App, it offers the option "Go Offline", which I would assume means I'm online now, so I don't know why I'd need to connect. When I press the button to connect, I get the endless wheel of doom. Please help.SolvedJT78563 days agoNew Novice62Views0likes2CommentsExploring Romantic Boundaries Category Missing in CAS
I just noticed this in my new save that I started after the most recent update.....the category "Open to explore romantic boundaries" is missing! But weirdly enough, it's still listed in their bios as "Exploring Romantic Boundaries". This is the case for both pre-made townies and new households.Solved71Views0likes3Comments

Random skin replacement: purple and flames design
One of my characters now has purple skin that becomes a flame detail near the arms. Hands and arms are yellow, orange, and red flames. It’s not a tattoo. It’s not custom content, that’s disabled. It doesn’t change in CAS. Sim doesn’t have an ailment or curse.SolvedD1ANA868 days agoSeasoned Rookie104Views0likes2Comments
Prom is not fixed.
At least not completely -- it IS now showing up in the calendar. It hasn't been Saturday yet, so still have to play test if it actually works, however -- there's still no option to invite (friendly or otherwise) a partner to prom. No prom social pie menu whatsoever. No ability to create promposal signs... the option simply isn't there. For now, I hope to at least be able to attend prom, we'll see. But it isn't fixed. Anyone else?SolvedAmandaSmith12219 days agoSeasoned Hotshot116Views1like3Comments
Showing that its not connected to the internet
Okay so this has been happening for a couple months now, but when I am in game I can not access anything that uses the internet so the gallery, market place, and I couldn't even see the last log in reward event. I don't get any error codes or anything either, it just wont work even though my laptop is connected to the internet. I've tried restarting my game, removing my mods fodder, clearing the cache, even restarting my laptop. I really don't know what else I can try to do.SolvedBatSkulls079 days agoNew Novice119Views0likes5Comments
Unable to play Royalty and Legacy Expansion Pack
I cannot play the new pack I just bought yesterday. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling (the entire game including every single pack that I own.) I have tried repairing every file. I did have mods but I made sure to take them out, too. I have tried taking all my save files out. Noting works. I just want to play the new expansion. Please fix!!! Thank you.Solvedhappyinpurple10 days agoRising Novice141Views0likes3Comments
My calendar has shifted - anyone know why and how I can fix it?
I play a pack challenge. When I activated seasons I made sure I did it on an in game Sunday, so that seasons would run smoothly across the weak (sunday to saturday for a season). I then added holidays where I wanted them. After the update, everything shifted two days. So seasons start on Fridays, the holidays that were previously on a Thursday now happen on a Tuesday. As in every single holiday is moved two days. Now I had mods before, not many though, but only MCCC that affect time (I had the game move slightly slower than normal) but now for obvious reasons my game is vanilla. Could this have caused this? And can I fix it? Or is it just wait it out until mods are fixed and return to the older save and hope it's normal there? That would be super annoying because I've spent most time since the update building and I haven't been able to save to the gallery for months so all that building will have been in vain. Anyone who has experienced anything like this before?SolvedJesLet4011 days agoSeasoned Ace114Views0likes4Comments
Sims troll teh forum without mischief skill
I thought the update stated sims who do not have the mischief skill would not autonomously troll teh forums or gain the mischief skill? I updated my game and my sim who dislikes deception, potty humor, pranks, malicious interactions just autonomously trolled teh forums without even having any skill in mischief. Does this update only apply to new saves? Edit By crinrict: Adjusted TitleSolved62Views0likes2CommentsComputer Menu Unusable
After todays update I logged on and all my computers are unclickable for adult sims. When playing as a young adult, adult, or elder I can't seem to access computers. The computer shows an outline around it, the gear icon shows up, but when I click nothing pops up. The teen and child sims are unaffected, they can still use the computer menus. My adult sims will still use computers of their own free will but the menu doesn't appear.Solved9a13160a83fb2fc811 days agoSeasoned Newcomer101Views0likes2CommentsItem previews not shown
