Game Backups
Always keep a backup of your saves folder on your desktop. That way, if any sim dies of laughter, (as has happened to me so many times!) you'll always be able to go back on a save and change circums...

Well, @Gednaa I do REAL backups ... hahahaha. Don't give anybody an excuse to put things on the same machine and call it a backup ... LOL. Anyway, I don't even get grimmy. Within like 3 minutes, my Sim was gone and the grim reaper didn't even show up. WHAT was that? Not for the woman or man Sim. Is that a bug? Doesn't grimmy always show up during Sim deaths?
And, wait ... what's the cheat for this phenomenon? Here's to learning new things! Hahahahahaha. Don't you find it funny how we take this silly game so seriously? It's like we're offended when a character dies on the scene. Don't know why that struck me as bizarre, but it did.
😃😉
@KingRayVeteran That reminds me I must buy an external Hard Drive. I'm on Mac so all my previous ones won't work! I've never had a death where grimmy didn't come along??? That's a strange one! I wonder if anybody else knows why that its?
@Gednaa I have 3!!! Yes, do invest in one or more. I was a bit surprised that the reaper didn't show up twice, so that's why I'm thinking it's a bug now.
- @KingRayVeteran I had a 3TB USB 3 for my PC, so I'm saving up to get a version that will go with the Mac. I sometimes wish I didn't switch! It's been more expense than it was worth! :D
@Gednaa I absolutely have to have them, or I can't function. I'm a computer nerd and learned those lessons long ago. Started out a computer operator in 1978, and have gone through successions of computers & PC's. Some lessons you can never unlearn. I'm even nervous my backup devices are in the same house! Hahahaha
I refuse to buy into the Cloud technology, because there is no guarantee others don't have access to our data AND our machines, and they'd charge too much $$$$ for the storage. Why should I pay another company for my backups? I have a 1.5TB, 8.0TB, and a 4.0TB. One of them is attached to my laptop. All Windows.
@Gednaa You could use Disk Utility to format your external hard drives. It's very simple and very fast. And if the connector is incompatible, you could probably find an adapter for £10 or less on Amazon.
- @puzzlezaddict Thank so much for your kind info! I'll try that! Ace! My many existing drives are incompatible, so I will look on amazon. Well worth a shot for that price! Yay!
