Thanks guys, I'll be updating later today. Been a little busy with my Gamescom reports.

Not sure this is realy a bug because it seems intentional but I just wanted to make a note somewhere about this. I got the "A Family Name, Sim Name or Description contains a disallowed word", because I was making a Sim of my boyfriend whose last name just happens to be "Hicks". When I removed "Hicks" everywhere it came up I was able to upload the Sim to the gallery. I can understand having blocks in place for "disallowed words" such as curses, etc. but I think narrowing down your definition of "disallowed words" may be good too.

Thanks. I'm thinking about making a thread for disallowed words. There are so many weird ones.

Hello!
I don't know if someone already had or has my problem, but here it is: everytime I try to connect online in-game it says that there is no connection available. I noticed that the problem is only on my computer that has a wifi connection, my bother's computer has a LAN connection and if works just fine. It connects smoothly to Origin, but when I launch the game and, for example, I try to go to the Gallery it won't connect at all saying that I have no connection available.
Sorry for my poor english and thanks! - crinrict11 years agoHero+
Make sure your anti virus and firewall are not blocking the connection

I see the following issue consistently:
- - Make a female sim, give her (for example) the 2nd set of eyes in the list (top right), resize the eyes to maximum
- - Change her gender to male
- - The male sim now has different eyes, and they're back to (standard?) size (I can enlarge them again although they were already at max)
Works the same way with male -> female.

Try restarting your wifi router then.
@tastytourist I'll add that
While choosing a face for a female Sim, in the first column, fifth face down I tried to move the lips but it automatically move them down and did not allow me to move them back up. I believe it is a glitch because every other premade face allows me to move the mouth around without any issues. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem and if it would be resolved in the actual game? Even after restarting the demo the problem continued.
In the gallery, there have been a lot of users commenting that their public & private sims are being "stolen". By that, I mean their sims are uploaded to the gallery by some random user profiles.
This happened to me, so I uninstalled and then reinstalled the demo, and my private/ unshared sim that was uploaded to the gallery had disappeared from my saved private library and showed up in the gallery as the other users' creation. I tried to save the sim to my library, and I uploaded it (for the first time) into the gallery so people know it's mine.
I think that some of the problem might be caused by the bootlegged demo / the cracked demo that someone uploaded to the internet before EA made the demo available for everyone. I'm going to be honest and say that I had it. As sooon as I noticed this issue in the gallery today, that's when I uninstalled the cracked one and installed the official demo through origin.
I'm not sure if they other people experiencing this are using the offical or cracked demo, but I've noticed that the problem persists even with my official demo.
