Can we have more winter worlds?
i want more worlds like this but it's with other continents (i'm okay with asian countries though) i actually love the way Mt Komorebi turned out the way it did so it's a shame we only have this as a winter world, each have their own cultures, activities and traditions and i'd like to see this in The Sims 4 we can have europe worlds based on winter (Swiss, part of italy and/or Germany, Austria, Sweden, Norway to name a few) maybe even Alaska or Canada (non-europe world but i don't mind on this one) and a few Asia worlds based on winter (Nepal, Korea and China for sure) maybe we get new animals like: polar bear, hedgehog to name a few a world with a secret cave (like Willow Creek, Oasis Springs and kind of Granite Falls if not mistaken) you collect items, maybe set up a tent and campfire to keep themselves warm, new winter clothes/jackets, a hat, a scarf and gloves and something to keep your ears warm, learn new things (i can't think up about build/buy items though) maybe an iglo as either decorations or as a venue/lot trait and a new death type "died by a avalanche" i'd love to have new pyjamas and everyday clothes, maybe even party clothes with more winter activities, maybe even some winter sports like ice-skating as for basegame update maybe they should add the basegame world and make climbing skills in basegame (in my opinion it shouldn't be so exclusive with the Snowy Escape, i don't care for other winter skills but climbing shouldn't be in the Snowy Escape only) (i once had ideas based on the winter worlds but i don't know if it's still there since it's been like 4 years now but i think i once shared it on YouTube in one of The Sims 4 trailers) i hope EA considers making an expansion or a game pack worlds based on winter countries, one of them should be in the vacation only worlds ps: just a friendly reminder, any winter world related post can be shared in here, thank you😊😊👍
Petite Alsace collaboration - Open for participation!
Happy New Year and welcome to another Sims 3 community collaboration hosted by Hidehi2 , Sandraelle and soocoolsim ! Introducing Petite Alsace inspired by picturesque Strasbourg, Colmar and Ribeauville with a dual French and German blend of charming, flower-laden villages and half-timbered homes. We anticipate the completed world will be a lovely addition to your game. Experienced creators (Intermediate+) are invited to join us in creating builds to add to the base world. If you love decorating but building isn’t your forte, let us know and we'll try to build a shell for you. Everyone can experience Petite Alsace taking shape by downloading the base world and installing builds as they become available. Please keep an eye on the "News and Updates" post for milestones and links to new creations as they become available. Constructive comments throughout this event are also welcome, so don't be shy. Without further ado, onto the details below and come join in the fun! LOT LISTINGS Map A: Colmar (Medieval, half-timbered houses with flower-filled balconies) Map B: Ribeauville (Pastel, half-timbered 15th - 18th century houses) Map C: Ribeauville Outskirts (Farming area) Map D: Strasbourg (City area, mix of old and new buildings) Map E: Avenue du Rhin (Wine region) Map F: Route de Alsace (Rural area) CLAIMING OVERVIEW Download the empty Petite Alsace base world created by the talented Hidehi2. Take a look at the available lots using the Map posts as reference (see links above). Indicate you're on board and sign up for your first claim by replying on this thread with your chosen map lot reference # (eg A8). I will update the lists with claims and add download / media links when builds are completed. Every two weeks (around the 1st and 15th of the month) a new claiming period starting with a 'Claiming Day' post will begin. During this period, if you join the collaboration or have a build in progress on Claiming Day, you can claim 1 lot. For ongoing participants, if all previously claimed builds are completed and (no cc) download link(s) submitted by Claiming Day, you may claim up to 2 lots. BUILDING GUIDELINES Please stay within the theme of each map area and overall Alsace inspiration. You have creative freedom otherwise. Inspiration links at the top of this post may be helpful. All / any EA Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs and official Store Items can be used. Free EA Store Items are OK for use. Note: Some are no longer available for download so use at your discretion. NO third-party Custom Content is allowed. Please Custard Check your exported file before uploading to double check. We highly recommend play-testing your build before uploading to ensure no routing concerns and users can enjoy as intended. Do test placement of your final build. This helps identify any potential issues (e.g. windows / floor tiles out of place). To do this... export your build, save your game, delete the existing build, then replace with the exported version from your library. Take a careful look around and fix as needed. It will be useful for players if the Petite Alsace lot address is included in your build description on the Exchange, albeit optional. Do take the time to put your best foot forward to make your build(s) shine inside and out. Just be cautious about using a ton of clutter since that can add to lag when playing. Each build will be showcased with credit in video walkthroughs on YouTube once the world is completed. Once your build is available on the Sims 3 Exchange, please post a reply on this thread including: name of build / map reference and/or address / download link / cover picture / custard screenshot confirming no 3rd party custom content included. Optional! Link to additional picture site / thread. SIMS / HOUSEHOLDS This collaboration focuses on builds since the final world save file will be unpopulated, however we are happy to link to Sims / Households created for Petite Alsace. Petite Alsace builders can submit Sims / Households for their completed claims as well as Townie use. All / any EA Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs and official Store Items can be used. Free EA Store Items are OK for use. Note: Some are no longer available for download so use at your discretion. NO third-party Custom Content is allowed. Please Custard Check your exported file before uploading to double check. Once your Sim / Household is available on the Exchange, please post a reply on this thread including: name / map reference or address (or identify as Townie) / download link / 1 cover picture / custard screenshot confirming no 3rd party custom content included. Optional! Link to additional picture site / showcase thread. Looking forward to participation by the Sims 3 community! 😀 STORIES / VIDEOS Players may wish to enjoy this world as it evolves and we welcome links to any Petite Alsace story threads / blogs / media.

[GALLERY] 'Content not installed' warning with all content owned
I haven’t played this specific save in a few years. I made some changes to my sims’ house and lot, and saved it to my library. I then demolished a different lot, and when I tried to place my sims’ lot from the library, I get a message saying content is not installed and that I don’t own all the content. I own almost all DLC, and I own the content used in my sims’ house/lot. I’ve never used mods/cc on this save. I’ve tried repairing the game, and then saved the lot to my library again, and deleting the previous saved copy. I still get the same message when trying to place the lot from my library on a different lot. It’s a recent issue, I didn’t have any problems a few days ago on a different save.

Hi, so I recently purchased three kits: Industrial Loft, Sleek Bathroom, and Modern Luxe. I did so through the marketplace using Moolas. Now when I open the build-mode I can place the items like normal, but I am unable to get my sims to interact with any of the items in-game. I don't have any mods installed and I have a bunch of packs and kits installed but never had such an issue. Would love to find a fix for this. Thanks in advance. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title
[PS] Cannot sort by pack in build/buy
I just updated to the new patch with the marketplace. Went to continue my build project, and I can no longer sort by packs. They simply don't show up. As you can see by my wallpaper swatches, I DO have packs installed. It's not even that the packs I don't own are greyed out like they were in sort prior to this update. The option is simply non-existent except for base game.Issues with Kits purchased with Moola before the last update
Hello, I have a problem. A few weeks ago, I bought a kit using the MOOLA currency, and now after the latest update, it shows up in the EA app as not purchased, even though it is installed in the game. The EA app does not register it as a purchase, but the marketplace does, and to be honest, that annoys and worries me. I need heeelp, hahaha.Marketplace Content Not Loading
(Mac) When I try to view any content (marker packs, expansion packs, game packs, stuff packs, kits, and even free content) in the marketplace, I get stuck on a blank loading screen and the content never actually loads. I just updated the game and mods were turned off so I turned them back on again as I usually do. Any fix for this?
Cant place/Delete items in Build mode
After I place one item the next item I select won't place, it flips back to where it was previously, or is carries around by my mouse indefinitely. I found by clicking a different tool across the top like the eyedropper then going back to the select tool it will let me place another item, but only one. Then click on the eyedropper again and back to the select tool, for each item I need to move or place. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted title to better reflect the issue
