What happened in your game today?
Hi everyone! I hope you're all enjoying the new forum so far. I know I am!! I'm Charla, a big fan of The Sims 4! ☺️ I was going to join on the old one, but, as it only had a week left I decided to wait until today. I loved lurking on the what happened in your game today thread so I thought would create a new one here. So what's happened in your game today? Today in my game I was playing as a character I created, Lauren Lord. She's an young adult, who dreams of being an author and a mom. Currently she's working as a school teacher, but today she had no work, she stayed at home and played chess and tended to her plants (when it wasn't raining!). I also made this new Sim :) hope the pic works! Look forward to seeing what's happening in your games.

Starting this thread with the upgraded family trees and plenty of genetics to debeate, in mind. I'm currently busy preparing families for the R&L pack. In TS4 I think sims just pass on one gene per feature, and the sims's gene will be either from father or mother. Because dyed hair will be passed on too, I mostly make sure to make notes of my sim's genetic hair color, because the game doesn't seem to keep track on it, but will pass on blue hair. Most of my female sims will not dye their hair while still having babies... Did this change? I see so many weird dna results in the family trees representing lore. They could be explained if we had two genes from each parent, but seems impossible if we only have one gene per parent. Also, how happy are you wioh the family tree upgrade? I love it, althugh some of my 10 years old trees are a bit messed up - I can live with that. It seems the game struggles a bit if one parent dies and the widow/er remarries. I found one case where my sim's stepmother is his genetic mother (stepmother is even younger than him), meaning all her family is listed as true relatives, which they are not. It might be caused by my save being old, and me designing some of the family relations in CAS rather than through regular play. And, maybe those who died eight RL years ago were culled, breakin the tree. I'm sure it will work better from here and onwards.238Views1like5CommentsGiveaway: TS4 Royalty and Legacy Grand Bundle Expansion Pack (Winners Announced)

Some of you may recall I started the Sim Gurus On Twitter thread in 2018 and passed the torch to Duvelina in 2020. She has informed me that she hasn't been including tweets from the official The Sims Twitter (X) so I thought I'd start a thread for info from The Sims. Twitter (X), Facebook, and Instagram. Also info from EA when it relates to TS4. If you're interested you can also check out my announcement threads for The Sims Freeplay.

#AD (just in case this counts as social media) I was invited to join the CFE (not final build) opportunity for The Sims 4: Royalty & Legacy. Thank you to the EA Creator Network for this chance to answer questions for you about the pack! I will be taking and answering mainly questions about gameplay - Skills/Traits/Aspirations/Career/Venues/Systems/Collections/Lore - and anything else you guys want to know about! I did test with ALL PACKS in as I believe this is yet another pack with cross-compatibility possibilities related to the various systems. (Please Note: Testing with other packs in is unsupported before regular Early Access, so may be extra buggy.) Testing was/will continue to be done on a mix of fresh CAS Sims and premades, to see lore and experience different levels if they are present. Format will be similar to past Q&As where I have links to each subject and add more info to each based on questions asked and as I discover things through gameplay. I can't start posting right away this time due to the embargo, but will be continuing to take notes/screenshots and will post info when I can. P.S. - I have a Creator Code, so if you find my Q&A useful you might consider it as an option at checkout. Using my code gives me a small commission (5% regularly, 7% during sales) and can even save you a little bit of money on TS4 DLC during sales (normally 5%). My code is EmmaVane. Just enter the code on the the payment screen where Promo Codes normally go. Thank you, EA for this opportunity.
