Combining multiple EA accounts?
Hi gang, I was looking to play the Sims 3 which I haven't for many years and saw all my expansion packs were connected to an old email address, not the current account that I use now. Is there any way to combine both accounts? I had a similiar issue back when the EA App was Origin and combining the accounts was not an issue. Thanks.Base Game Update Tuesday May 12 (Laundry List Released May 5)

Cannot Remove Sims from Online Gallery no Matter What I Try
I’ve tried everything from repairing the game to factory resetting my laptop, but I keep running into the same issue. Every time I try to remove a Sim from the online gallery, it takes a long time to process the request and then shows this message: 'Timed out during upload. Check your internet connection or try again in a minute.' The strange thing is, I’m not uploading anything, I’m trying to do the opposite. My internet connection is solid, with a download speed of about 900 Mb/s and an upload speed of around 50 Mb/s on my laptop, so I don’t think that’s the problem. I reset my modem and router- still didn't work. I connected through ethernet- still nothing. I’ve repaired the game, uninstalled and reinstalled it, factory reset it, signed in and out of my EA account, deleted cache files, but nothing seems to work. I've disabled and removed all mods/CC. I’ve also experimented with my laptop powering it on and off, restarting it, and played with the settings, lowering the graphics to see if it was a performance issue, but that didn’t help either. Then I factory reset my laptop to see if there were setting in there that i put in that I don't know how to reset (I had all my important things on a drive). Other games that are more demanding run perfectly fine on my laptop, so it doesn’t seem to be a hardware issue. The only thing that works is uploading to the online gallery, removing Sims is the problem. It’s extremely frustrating because I'm very stubborn and was I hoping to get some guidance on what to do or if i should just wait for the update coming up and hope it fixes itself.
Are Rip Chips ever gonna be useful ?
Hello everyone, I currently have 75000 rip chips and I can't use them for anything. I've opened all the boxes and all of the other items in the shop are purchased with SVB. Could you make some of those items purchasable with Rip Chips and also find another utility to them ? (Like maybe converting them to Ticks or character slots)Version Handling
hello! i've been spending almost 2 days straight removing and updating all my mods after the latest patch. currently the only ones i have installed are cleared both in the Mod Hound checker and Scarlet's Realm's checker. my game loads like usual, but freezes as soon as an action is completed, and i still keep getting the last exception below... i genuinely have zero clue what could be causing it – anyone have any insight?
