CDKeys ethicality
Hi, so i wanted to buy the sims 3 for a cheaper price and i discovered cdkeys/instagaming. I was wondering about how ethical and legal it is to buy from such sources, do these companies seal the keys and resell them? Is the a 100% authentic website that resells them ethically? Or is it just better to save up and just buy it from EA?
Trying for a baby with a Sim who dislikes children
Hi, I'm doing a 100 baby challenge, and my matriarch's current conquest has the dislikes children trait. In your opinion, is it worth the effort to try for a baby with such a sim, or a waste of time? (I know in Sims 4 you can TFB with a sim who hates children, but I don't know how this similar trait works in Sims 3)
Story Progession advice?
Hi I have a legacy family I am almost determined in future to only let my sims have 1 child as I get too attached to both ad my lifespan is epic (odd for a legacy player I know) so I know them a long time. Main issue is the ones moved out never progress beyond howfar I've progressed them they may change careers to something non player controlled if its something like painting but they never get promoted even if workoholics, they never have children unless I switch and direct them to even if their traits would indicate they would want children and I make sure before leavvig them they have the means such as a crib and baby stuff and settled careers. They just stagnate in limbo after I leave....and I hate it I have thought about story progression mod but worried as my game lags slightly already and don't want to upset a game that can already be temperamental when its been running so well aside from occasional lagging. Awesome mod I know is less intensive on resources but also less customisiable and would need to learn more I want the other sibling to have a life too as well without me worrying about and micro managing them, so if any people see this have experience with these mods could give advice would be appreciated, also if there are any other alternatives I don't know of also feel free to suggest. I would keep them with me but you hit the 8 sim limit quickly that way and I know there are mods around this but they can cause their own issues (i've heard your save/ game is more likley to corrupt if you break the limit via mods)
Please help
I have created a new family, when the wife went into labor, she kept having babies, before restarting the game she ended up having 11 babies back to back. I have moved her out of her household and back in. I have switched to a different household, and came back after she had a baby, but when she was having another baby, it happened again; she was having lots of babies back to back. I have also restarted the game multiply times. I do not want to delete this game, as I have made significant progress already, how do I fixed this glitch? Thank you
Sims 3 crashing
Okay, this is not so much about the crashing but rather how to deal with it without having to restart my pc. When the game crashes, the the sims3 is still the fixed screen and I can't close it down. Alt tab and hit X does nothing and if I try and focus the task manager the screen immediately shifts back to the crashed game. Alt f4 does nothing as does Control f4. It doesn't happen often, but it's aggravating enough that I'm strongly considering just uninstalling the game. Anyone got any possible fixes?
Inspecting water for fish
Another quick question: when you inspect water for the types of fish at a given spot, some of the fish are unidentified. What causes a sim to have every single fish listed in the pop-up box when you inspect the water? -reading the fishing books -having caught that species of fish before -reaching a certain level of fishing skill -something else?
