Dryer?!

There also is a clothes line in the game - but it may have came with the ep that first gave sims the washer and dryer. Generations I think it was - but not positive. It was so long ago. hehehe

Laundromat was introduced by EP02 Ambition and I think, this contains also clothes line.
I remember one set laundromat-dryer from Ambitions,
another from SP 04 Townlife,
another set from EP 09 University
(and 3 sets from Store all enclosed in big set Loads of Laundry).
Dirty clothes are collected in hamper (you can simply drag those in live mode or if yours sim is neat, he will collect them simself after you order him "Clean house").
If you won't dirty clothes around yours house and won't make laundry you may use some decorative CC laundromat without laundromat functions or place Laundromat in family inventory.
I know, it isn't best solution, but I'm making laundry for my RL family and I find it not funny in game. :wink:

What does requires addintional game play mean.......Is this item just not unlocked yet? If so what do I do to unlock the ultra dryer?

@jbedo1983 - Sorry I didn't respond to you earlier, but um when it says you need additional gameplay that means you probably need a specific expansion pack. Just looking at the dryers in The Sims 3 store, are you talking about the green star below the buy/download button? When I hovered over that it said "Item includes Additional Gameplay," but that seems to be different than what you are asking me, correct?

Well since Ambitions came with Laundry, the button is letting us know that the Laundry includes additional game-play even without Ambitions.

So basically you do not need a specific EP to use the store items that add additonal gameplay options. (Doing Laundry)

It is a 2-for-1 item. Adds the ability to do Laundry to a game and is an item for that gameplay option.

Just a little warning: if you don't have Ambitions you will need both a washer and dryer from the laundry set because you won't have a working clothesline to hang the washing.
If you don't want Sims to dump their clothes on the floor you will need to get a hamper as well.

Please check out this website that talks about the washer, and dryers. http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Laundry

I can't make a post with my problem. But I don't have the option to buy a dryer at all. I have enough SimPoints, but the only options for me are Washer, and 2 different kinds of hampers. No dryer. I can't even take the clothes out of my washing machine?? Please help.

I only have the base Sims 3 Game by the way. If I can buy the washing machine with SimPoints why can't I buy a dryer??

I'm just going to get rid of the washing machine for now until I can actually play and do laundry properly.
