Download the Origin client here: http://origin.com/download
Login with the account you registered the game on and find the game in my games to download.
Hi everyone,
I've just installed origin and the sims 4 onto my PC as my laptop can't handle the game any more - I don't seem to have my little people though. I noted when reading this thread people were saying saved data was PC specific, does that mean I need to start again from scratch? Just a bit lost and not tech savvy, so any help greatly appreciated.
You can copy your saves and tray folders from the laptop to the PC. If you use Mods or CC also copy the Mods folder.
Aha ok thank you, @jpkarlsen I'll give that a go! Most helpful. Cheers
You copy your Tray, saves and mods folders on a thumbdrive. Normally they are placed here: Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4
I know this is an old thread but can you explain how one would do this? I spent about 15 hours building a mansion then my laptop broke and I can't find my saved game on my new computer (in origin - open Sims 4 - no 'load saved game' option)
Many thanks.
Ignore me, found page 2 with those exact instructions 😂😂😂
Yes!!! Go to file, documents, electronic arts, the sims 4. Then I copied my saves, my tray, and my mods to a cheap little portable flash drive then put the flash drive in the new computer that has the sims already downloaded. Then I deleted any previous saves, tray, or mods, then pasted the new tray, saves, and mods from the flash drive into the new computer! My game is all here.
