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. XDay 7 - Once Upon a Simsmas - The 12 Days of Simsmas

That way, if you ever need to install The Sims 4 again, you simply need to log back in to gain access to your rewards! What if I log in and don’t see the Event? A: The Deck the Palms Even starts on December 16, 2025 at 9 AM PST and ends on January 13, 2026 . Rewards must be claimed before 9 AM PST on January 13, 2026 or they will be unavailable.

A: Certain rewards unlock on different days during the event, each new day that you log in while there are unlocked rewards, you will progress to the next set of rewards that are available. For example, if you start the event late, there may be several rewards that are already unlocked, but you will still need to log in daily to redeem new rewards until you are caught up to the current locked rewards. Can I still complete the Event if I start late? A: In order to get all the rewards, you will need to log in on January 4, 2026.

It will unlock for you once you have the Pack. Is there a time limit on Pack Exclusive Rewards? A: As long as you claim the reward to your EA account, there is no time limit on access to the reward, including after the Event ends! Once you own the associated pack, you can use the rewards you’ve claimed!

What Packs Do You Recommend For Me?
General discussion gets very often, if not daily, some threads where simmers ask for help about what pack they should buy 😊 Specific packs or from all the packs . What is of course a great thing to ask, however, would be nice if all those asks were all at same place.😉 This thread is for this purpose, tell us your playstyle or any detail you wish, to make it easier to give you suggestions 😊 Also here something to help you with the decision : https://simscommunity.info/2024/02/26/sims-4-pack-guide/Sims4 Random Thoughts thread 2.0
Old version was locked some time ago, so here we have a new one. From old thread: A thread for those occasions when we want to comment on something game related or ask a question without having to start a new thread. Or those comments and questions that don't really fit into an existing thread.Day 4 - Ink the Halls - The 12 Days of Simsmas
What says ‘I love the holidays’ more than permanently inking your body? For today’s challenge, we’ll be giving your Sim some festive flair by designing a custom Simsmas theme tattoo! Share your screenshots below and be sure to upload your tattoos to the Gallery! Bonus points to anyone who gets a real Simsmas tattoo 🙃
Activities Children Can Do
I feel we need to keep a list of activities that children can do that other Sims can't and also activities that they can also do that other Sims can also do. For example: I know that children Sims can play make believe together but they can't play make believe with an adult Try to include which pack it came from also if you know. The purpose of this thread is to spread some awareness of the types of activities children Sims can do, because especially with each pack release children seem to be left in the dust. I'm going for positivity here. I feel they can do lots of stuff in the game.🎈

The screenshot spammers thread, v2.0
My apologies for starting a new spammers thread, but the old one is not very user-friendly on the new forums. Plus, it's in the sims franchise discussion section--not sure what that's about. Anyways, for those that are new to this thread, the rules are simple; post as many screenshots as you want, while limiting the dialogue to what's going on in the shot, or the reason for the shot New forum, new screenshot spammers thread--let's rock it 😃Infants and Toddlers! Share Your Gameplay and Discoveries
A thread to share infant and toddler gameplay. This thread is to share your joys and frustrations as your littlest ones transition from newborn to infant, then toddlerhood. Share pics of your infant and toddler's journey and ask questions when you need childrearing advice or get stuck on those milestones. I'll be adding links to information to help you navigate this fun and rewarding journey with our littlest ones. Infant and Toddler Quirks Infant Milestones Toddler Milestones
