Has anyone had issues with the game recognizing the packs? I’ve purchased and downloaded both. On the PS4 menu it states that I have them both installed. When I go into the main menu of the game it states that I have the packs but need to download them. In build mode when I try to sort by pack it tells me I haven’t purchased these packs.

i had that problem what i did was i just restarted my ps4 and they were there hopefully this works for you!

My family is now vacationing in selvadorada with their cat, but silly me, I forgot to take the pet bowl and litter box with them, what do I do??? It’s a two-day vacation! :s

Outdoor Retreat was the first pack I bought after I got the PC version of the game. I kept waiting and waiting for it to come out on console, and it's awesome that it's finally here. (I thought it would be a summer release to go with the whole vacation/camping theme, so when summer came and went, I was wondering if it might be another year before it came out.)

I did worry about the replay-ability, but there was something cool about having my one nature-obsessed Sim hunting down all the bugs and herbs and then, a couple generations later, having a new Sim do the same. Seasons makes some of the collecting trickier now, but then, I'm usually not thinking, "Oo! Winter! Let's go camping!"

My PS4 game has been having a lot of lagging issues, too, but that's a great suggestion, @catloverplayer. Appreciate the tip!

Out of the two packs what one do you like best

To my own surprise, it is JA. Before their release, I always thought I'd be more fond of OR.

Explain?

I guess they did an excellent job in creating an exotic ambiance in JA (at least for me), very vacation like. The sound effects, the waterfalls, the insects, and natural dangers all work very well together. The treasures are fun as well, especially relics, there are so many combinations you can do to get all kinds of good/bad influences. And don't get me wrong, I love OR, it's just compared to JA, the things you can do in this pack...isn't a lot. Like I'm doing this aspiration challenge (outdoor enthusiast) now, but because I installed Seasons, all plants don't grow in one season, my sim has to go back every summer to search plants until her eyeballs pop out...

Yes I thought I would like outdoor retreat better out of the two bit I do enjoy ja so much more I have already explored the whole map of ja even the mystery part though it still has a question mark on the map even though I have explored them because I even explored both parts of the temple btw when doing the temple have lots of the moodlets solvers because if you get something wrong they make you scared or stink
