macOS Version
Why isn't the macOS version included in the EA Store? It can only be bought in the App Store in macOS.retrochansmith15 minutes agoSeasoned Rookie11Views0likes1CommentPlease add a feature that allows changing the grass color of lots in The Sims 1.
I have long wished to change the terrain color of the default neighborhood lots to a sandy shade like the beachfront lots in Downtown or a snowy shade like the winter lots in Vacation. However, the game does not provide this feature by default. That’s why I now hope to be able to freely change the grass color of lots, as shown in the image below.Sims 1 legacy crash
Hey guys, I just bought sims 1 legacy off of steam for the nostalgia but when I try to load it a little tab in my windows bar opens and instantly shuts again and that's all that happens. I looked on reddit for answers and they got me to download the old 64 and 86 copys of c++ and to change my compatability to windows xp. I did all these things and now when i load as administer it almost loads up (screen goes black, pixels get blown up to adjust to the old style and then it shuts down again. Now I cant edit the compatability setting and I cant get any further. Why would someone sell a game on steam that doesn't work. This is a big company. Can someone help me make a game just play please. Shouldn't have to get techy to play a game on steam. Might as well of pirated it at this point.sphoeva3 days agoSeasoned Newcomer91Views0likes4CommentsClick and censorship visual glitch
Hi, how are you? I recently purchased The Sims Legacy and noticed that when I open the interactions menu in Live Mode (to click on the ground, an object, a Sim, etc.), I get a visual glitch. This also appears in the censorship when my Sim takes a shower or goes to the bathroom. I don't know how to fix it, and while it doesn't prevent me from playing, it's quite annoying. I've attached photos of what I'm dealing with. Thanks in advance for any help!5K1L4H10 days agoRising Newcomer176Views1like3Comments2 bugs that’s driving me insane

Hey there! I wanted to ask if there are any known restrictions or guidelines regarding third-party tools that manage or distribute Custom Content for The Sims. I'm currently researching the development of a third-party tool for managing CC in The Sims 1 as part of a capstone project. The idea is to build a mod manager capable of organizing, downloading, and installing custom content, with a possible integration to an external website where creators could upload their mods and players could download them through the application. A very early prototype of the tool already exists in a limited form (called TS1-ModLoader) which focuses mainly on detecting file conflicts. The goal of the project would be to expand this concept to include mod hosting and automated installation. The tool would not distribute any original game files, only user-created content. If there are any policies, documentation, or guidelines related to this (or if there is a better place to ask about it), I would really appreciate being pointed in the right direction.acanixz14 days agoRising Newcomer53Views0likes0CommentsThe Sims 1 Legacy Still Cannot Launch on RTX5080
The game just simply crashes without any info every time I open it. I tried lots of compatibale solutions like using AMD CPU HD Graphics to launch the game. These just won't work. I wonder if there is a way to run the game without resintalling old drivers. Cause using old drivers will cause low FPS or bugs on some new video games. Does Maxis ignore all the existing problems on Sims1&2 Legacy and do nothing now? I am really looking forward to a new update patch to solve the problems.Aero_Plane952719 days agoRising Newcomer37Views0likes0CommentsSims legacy load is just a black screen

My Sims 1 Legacy game has sounds but no music anywhere. How can I solve it? Has this happened to anyone else?Michunet29 days agoSeasoned Newcomer1.2KViews3likes8CommentsThe Sims Legacy Collection custom content tools
Hey, fellow simmers! I'm creating this discussion for a few reasons. First, I'd like to ask a question. Is The Sims Creator compatible with the Legacy Collection version? For example, I have a physical copy of the Complete Collection. Would it be possible to use that version of The Sims Creator (which is on one of the disks used to install the game) with the newly re-released version of The Sims? This also brings up another question. Are custom content creation tools (both those supplied by Electronic Arts/Maxis, and otherwise) from the original version still compatible? Also, is it planned for EA/Maxis to update these older tools for modern systems? In addition, if anyone knows of any useful tools for creating custom content (particularly skins and skin meshes) for The Sims, I'll put them here as a collective list.krayedon30 days agoSeasoned Novice526Views3likes4CommentsPlease, add a better money cheat. Give us the motherlode.
It's really frustrating that you can only get 1000 simoleans with a cheat. I know you can repeat it with !;!;!;!; and so on, but that is a very time consuming thing since you still only get a mere 1000 for each ! That's a lot to get the 50000 that motherlode gives you in later games. And you have to press in another button for every ! so it's not something you can do very fast. This would be a very good quality of life feature to add that I imagine would take very little effort.thefirsttemplar1 month agoSeasoned Ace178Views0likes3CommentsSims 1 objects glitch.
When I load a household in the Sims 1, none of the items or walls load correctly. Sometimes they appear when a Sims uses them autonomously but will disappear again once they’re done. When exiting to the neighborhood, the household creates visual glitch on map when saved. I’ve tried restarting the game, computer and “repaired” it on the EA App but nothing seems to work. Huge letdown.luckey2themaxx1 month agoNew Novice2.3KViews3likes53Commentsmove_objects on doesn't work
I'm playing the current updated version of the sims 1 that came out on EA app on pc, i think its called the legacy version? no mods or cc trying to use the cheat 'move_objects on' and its not working. not able to place objects without getting the red conflicting space thing happening i want to do things like place the toy boxes flush with the wall, which looks better and still allows them to function. or literally just place anything in the home, everything has such an unnecessarily large footprint around it you can't place anything flush. it all just floats in the middle of the room. i remember playing the cd rom years ago and that cheat worked perfectly. if this was a glitch, fix it. if this was intentionally removed, why the hell would you do that? seriously with this company 🙄talk_simlish_2me1 month agoSeasoned Traveler131Views1like3CommentsSims (1) Legacy edition Turning off expansion packs
There appears to be no way to allow the user to select which expansion packs they want to use in the legacy edition. I contacted customer support and they directed me to this forum. If anyone else would like to see an option to turn on and off expansion packs as desired, please upvote this as support suggested the more upvotes the more chance they will be able to fix this.
