Gallery issue
The gallery has been tell me for the past few days that I don’t owned my packs and I looked in pack selections and it said owned and installed. I checked my storage on my console and it’s installed but when I clicked my sim I made with said not owned packs it told me that since I don’t owned those pack they would be removed. I clocked yes anyway and the everything I have put on my sim including the packs that it said I didn’t owned was on my sim. This really need to be fixed and it’s an issue because it’s telling people they don’t owned their packs.
🎄 My Dream Christmas Pack for The Sims 4! 🎄
I would absolutely love to see a new Christmas-themed pack for The Sims 4! I would love to have more Christmas decorations, beautiful Christmas trees, festive lights, Christmas sweaters, matching family pajamas, snowmen, gingerbread houses, and more winter activities. It would also be amazing to have Christmas traditions, gift-giving, Christmas dinner, and the ability to celebrate Christmas Eve with family and friends. I think a dedicated Christmas pack would make the holiday season in The Sims 4 so much more magical! ❤️🎅 Please consider making a new Christmas pack!I have so many ideas ugh!
Baby strollers would be nice, underwater mermaid world, occult schools I don’t think a occult child should attend the same schools as regular sims, it also gives them opportunities to bond with other occult sims it can be a hole in the wall school with pop events, boating with more than one sims or boating events you can take your family on, cruise vacations where the family goes away for a week with pop ups, if it’s to much to go on vacations with them all, I do think their should be special go with them moments though out the cruise if unable to go on cruise with family, I have a few more ideas but this is getting long. I play on a console and recently it has been insanely boring. I like the bridgerton pack and the ondarion world but I feel like it’s missing something. I think for parenting their should be a specific section when discussing the kids with husband like maybe the kid has a bad grade, or you want to send them to camp, I think their should also be boarding schools and vacations for camp it doesn’t make sense to send them to camp if they have to go to school or take time off from school.
Realistic Illnesses
I would like realistic illness that can be toggled on and off, like Sims 2 when the Sims were sick they would run to the restroom throwing up, coughing and sneezing it took a day or few days to get well, I would like that for Sims 4 Sims instead of getting medicine and all better that can still be option but why have Sims rest in bed or quarantine, mom or dad or some make soup or something healthy for the Sims to get better. Have the hospital open for Sick Sims I mean I know we EBN illnesses but it's not really what I'm talking about. I want them to take temp. Any more thoughts?Sims 4 Gameplay idea for an enhanced party game pack
Feature Suggestion: More Realistic Birthday Parties & Gift-Giving in The Sims 4 🎂🎁 As a Sims 4 console player who loves realistic family gameplay, I would love to see more realism added to birthday parties! I’ve had this idea for a while, and I think it would bring so much more depth to family-oriented gameplay, especially for players who enjoy celebrating milestones and creating realistic family traditions. I know some of these experiences can be created with mods, but console players don’t have access to mods. It would be amazing to have these features incorporated into the actual game so everyone can enjoy them. Here are some features I would love to see: 🎂 1. Birthday Cards Sims could purchase or craft birthday cards for family members and friends. Cards could include personalized messages, age-appropriate designs, and sentimental notes. Sims could give and receive cards during birthday parties. Cards could be displayed, stored, or kept as memories. 🎁 2. Realistic Gift Bags Sims could purchase gift bags and fill them with items before attending a birthday party. Gift bags could include toys, books, candy, stuffed animals, clothes, gift cards, and other age-appropriate presents. Players could select which objects go inside each bag. Children could receive party favor bags to take home after birthday celebrations. 💵 3. Birthday Money & Money Grams Sims could give birthday money in cards, envelopes, or money grams. Family members could give different amounts depending on their relationship. Children could receive money from grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other relatives. Sims could save the money they receive or use it to purchase items. 🛍️ 4. Functional Shopping Bags Sims could purchase items from stores and carry realistic shopping bags home. Shopping bags could contain the items purchased and be placed on counters, tables, or the floor. Sims could wrap purchased items and place them inside gift bags before giving them to another Sim. 🎉 5. More Realistic Birthday Party Interactions Guests could arrive with gifts, cards, and money. Birthday Sims could open presents and react differently depending on what they receive. Parents could help young children open gifts. Guests could sing “Happy Birthday,” take pictures, and participate in opening presents. Birthday Sims could thank guests for their gifts. Family members could keep birthday cards, photographs, and special gifts as sentimental keepsakes. I would especially love to see these features available for toddlers, children, teens, and adults, with different interactions depending on their age and relationships. The goal is to make birthday celebrations feel like real-life family gatherings, with thoughtful gifts, meaningful traditions, and memorable interactions. These small details could make family gameplay so much more immersive for both PC and console players without requiring mods. Thank you for continuing to develop The Sims 4 and considering ideas that help players create more realistic stories with their Sims!
Wait For It.
I really think if implemented correctly this could be a really good QoL addition to the game and the best part of the it is it already technically exists in the game it is just wildly underutilized; Waiting. Sims wait for their turns when they use the slip and slide object from Backyard Stuff Pack There is a "waiting in line" interaction when you use the Public Washroom objects in base game and Outdoor Retreat Game Pack and also City Living Expansion Packs. There are never enough Sims as round to it really utilize it though but it pops up when you send your Sim's to use those objects. Sims really should be able to wait for things in the game. I think it would cause less dropped queued and repeated clicks on the players side of things. Currently if an object is in use most of the interactions just cancel out because most objects can only be used by one Sim at a time and that does make sense but what if a Sim could simply stand there and wait their turn instead of dropping it from the queue. Sims could wait for their turn at the bathroom at home or on another lot. Sims could use the fridge even if another Sim decides to grab something at the same time. Sims could wait for each other to dive off the diving board. Sims could wait for their turn at using the smaller kitchen appliances like the coffee maker. Sims could wait to use the photobooth object that comes from High School Years Sims could wait for their turn to order at Food Stalls instead of everyone ordering all at once. Sims could wait for their turn at Cafeteria Objects from High School Years and Discover University. The Cafe Bar objects that comes from Get Together could absolutely benefit from this because it takes longer to make the drinks with all the animations and such that Baristas get overwhelmed and drop orders out of the queue. Same goes for Bartenders but I haven't noticed the dropped orders as much as with Cafe Baristas. I'm sure there are way more examples of this but that's all I can think of at the moment. As a bonus idea I would like to add that I wish we could have a "stand and wait" interaction for our Sims by either/or clicking on the Sim or the ground so that we can send a Sim somewhere or just click on them and have them wait. That way we could set up things like screenshots or sending a Sim somewhere but then having them wait while we do something else with another Sim in the household. I know I'm The Sims 3 Sims would stop and wait and tap their foot if something was in their way but I think that was more overly sensitive and made things worse from a QoL standpoint so I definitely don't want that lol.All kinds of gameplay issues post Crystal Creations and Fairy Downloads
Hello! Longtime Sims player here! I have thankfully never had major technical challenges while playing for the last 20 (?) years. I recently downloaded Crystal Creations and the Fairy pack and my whole gameplay isn't working correctly. There are so many different issues it is hard to write them all but they include: sims getting actions stuck in their cue cursor not responding to being clicked correctly sims not moving from their spot but the action cue updating and reflecting different actions (for example when a welcome party arrived they all stayed in one area but the cues and prompts reflected them having eating dinner and using bathroom) sims getting cold indoors (that hadn't previously happened for me) including the baby that will get dressed into pajamas to sleep and then have the freezing warning needs changing at weird rates and not replenishing at normal rates time not jumping forward when all sims are asleep time jumping forward glitching sims appearing as if they are on the lot actions with sims appearing in cue that are not on the lot jewelry not looking removed from the sim notification that baby has come home from daycare (they didn't go) I am sure I am missing a lot! I use an embarrassingly old laptop but this hadn't been an issue previously. It runs Mac OS Catalina vs 10.15.8 it's a macbook pro from 2013. I made sure I had enough space on the computer before downloading the packs. I don't use any mods as I have always been afraid of affecting gameplay! Any help or advice would be amazing! I want my sims back!
Build your own bundle system
Please bring back the old Build Your Own Bundle system for The Sims 4! The old system allowed us to choose one Expansion Pack, one Game Pack and one Stuff Pack for an affordable price. The new Stack & Save system offers less choice for certain packs and can be much more expensive. Please bring back the old bundle system, with a wider selection of packs and the original affordable pricing. Many players would appreciate it!
