Carl's Sims 4 Site Thread

Latest: Emotions Guide
Also, The Careers Section now has all 8 Careers. Can't wait to update in December when they release the new ones!

Hi guys, I'm Carl and would like to make a thread where folks can critique my work and provide details I've missed. I wish I had chosen a more obvious username, but am stuck with silencecomplex :blush: My team and I have worked hard to put out around 1 page each day for The Sims 4 and I realize there are many things that can be missed in such a complex game. I'd love to hear from you here, so that I can make edits and improve our work for future readers. None of my work would be so good without valuable feedback from the community. If you have ideas for Guides that are not so obvious, let me know!

My site is: here. We have published 18 pages thus far, which I guess is the perfect amount considering the date and our goals. :)

Guides are listed there with the latest at the top. Our current agenda is to finish the Skills/Careers sections then move on to an Emotions Guide. Things like Traits, Death, and the like will come later.

It will take us at least a couple more months to finish covering the base game. I hope to update more thoroughly with each Expansion release than I did with The Sims 3. I got overwhelmed myself, but think that my new format for writing guides/taking notes and easier to edit pages will help me be more efficient.

Unfortunately, I'm waiting on some bugs to be fixed just like you guys, only I'll need to edit several pages when they are corrected. I've tried to warn people of issues so they don't waste time. I lost 2-3 hours looking for Tilapia (for Fishing) before I figured out it was a bug, and spent 2 whole days working on the Gardening Guide.

Thanks for reading!
Carl

  • Hi, I am having trouble accessing your site. I have no idea how to get a hold of anyone on the forum. I've left a facebook and twitter message, and now I am trying this as well. My name is christinal3106 on your site. A few days back, I was looking at some stuff on your site, and I started up a sims game with the tabs still open. My game was extremely laggy, which is odd, so I tried to close down the game. It wouldn't close, so I tried to ctrl+alt+del to stop the program. After waiting a few minutes without it coming up, I decided to turn off the computer. When I turned it back on, I could no longer access the guide. I have cleared cookies and caches, restarted, restarted my modem, and tried to find solutions online. It would not work on my phone or my husband's either. I did find a youtube video where I did something that made it where I could see the site on my phone, but it won't let me log in. I tried to make a new account, and it is the same thing err_connection_refused. On my computer it just loads until it times out. I am interested in completing the vampire challenge and also started a 10 Gen Dynasty. Please help!

    @christinarike Instead of using a 3 year old thread, why not ask other simmers in the tech help section?

    @silencecomplex Please see above post - she is having trouble accessing your site.
  • Wow, this thread is so old... didn't even know Carl's Guide had their own thread here. It's my fav site for cheats etc.

    > Carl, you rock. But I'm sure you know that. Your site is like my Sims Bible.

    Could not have said this better. :)
  • Hi all,

    I am going to close this one down as necroing is against Forums Rules which are here.

    @christinarike I would recommend trying to reach out to Carl's Guide via Twitter or Facebook as this thread/account has not been active in quite some time.
