So big part of gaming live streaming seems to be broken (what a surprise)

Watch lilsimsie's video " Can being a streamer get you rich in the Sims 4?" It will show you how she managed to get tips while livestreaming.

You have to read the sims chat to receive the tips you made. It's a separate interaction.

I don't think that's true. I mean, you do get money for Sims Chat, and you could certainly say that's where the tips are at. But you can't do it till you reach 3rd level of the career, so why aren't you getting tips before that for streaming? That, and it seems to be endless. I just tried it, and my sim collected money for three solid hours. It slowed down a bit at that point, so I quit, but then started it again, without streaming, and it went right back to showering him with money. Pretty sure you can just do it over and over, without streaming. So if it IS meant to be tips for streaming, it's poorly designed, because it's very cheaty.

I actually watched that last night (the one with Stanley), lol. The thing is, she doesn't get tips in that. In fact, she mentions that she hasn't gotten a single simolean for tips at about 5:20 in. She ends up making money from angel investments. I dug deeper last night, and I THINK the tips were just not completed. The entries I found don't seem to be attached to anything that I could find. I think it just got left out.

After reading about all the bugs/glitches that are attached to this pack, I am leaning toward the idea of totally bypassing purchasing it. Every day I come onto this forum I see at least one or two more issues being added to an already long list of issues. Oh, the modding community is doing it's best to fix these issues, and I do appreciate their hard work. But I am so tired of relying on mods to fix borked packs and updates. If I ever do decide to buy this pack it will be for the new world, not for the badly coded, almost unplayable features. It's just sad and heartbreaking to sit here and watch the Sims franchise falling apart.

Right now, I am sitting in front of a brand-new gaming laptop that isn't being used because I ran out of time to install Sims4 on it before the pre-pack update. Rather than playing I am now searching for a way to play Sims4 on my new laptop without being forced into installing that latest update. If that update wasn't a tangled mess that wouldn't be a problem. But it is a mess, and I don't want it on my new rig. And that shouldn't be happening. We shouldn't be afraid of new packs or updates that ruin our enjoyment of the game. But I am leery of everything coming out of that studio right now. What they advertise is seldom what we get. :/

I totally agree with all you've said. I really want to update and get this pack, but how long till they fix the issues, if ever?
