Packs are installed in Ps5 Menu, but doesn't show up at all in the actual game?
I know this is a similar problem people have been dealing with, but in my case, when I go to view add-ons like the troubleshooting tutorial says, the add-ons don't show up at all. And in the actual game, I am not able to view expansion packs, only the free one that is already installed in my collection. I am unable to view anything else. I'm not sure if it matters, but the main account on this system is my mother's, and she's the one who purchased the packs. Although I'm playing on my account, for years we were able to both access the packs she bought, and currently on her profile, everything is as it should be. It's been like this for about a year now, and I've tried looking up so many tutorials, but none of them have worked or really even applied to me. We're both stumped. Info regarding the photos: The first photo is showing that I am unable to look at any expansion packs besides the free one downloaded in my collection. The Expansion Packs, Game packs, etc. tabs are non-clickable. Even using the R1 and R2 to switch through these does not work. The second photo shows all that is available in the game information. The add-ons aren't showing up at all, and that's the farthest I can scroll down. The third photo is showing that all the packs are already installed. A big thanks in advance to anyone who tries to help! I apologize if the solution is incredibly simple. Neither of us are very tech-savvy, haha. UPDATE: I figured out I needed to renew licenses, so the add-ons are now visible, they just show as unpurchased and unowned. Even when I go to the Playstation store, it's the same. It prompts me to purchase the packs. I've restarted the console, still the same.SolvedSims 4 Pick A Pack Birthday Giveaway

Can’t save my game. When I switch to needs etc game sends me to load screen. Cursor disappears so I can’t even scroll or play when the save option works which is like 10% of the time. Spent sooo much money on this game and being unable to play is disappointing. Please fix soon!!!!

I downloaded this yesterday from the marketplace, not using moola. I have played over 10 Sim days and no dust has appeared. I can't even put vacuums in my Sims inventory or click on the floor to check dust levels. I've tried every bit of troubleshooting I can find and it's still not working. Does anyone have any ideas?? Thanks!Martial Arts Skill Pack with Kendo and Swordsmanship Integration
I’d like to see Martial Arts added as a full skill in The Sims 4. It would give Sims a structured physical discipline beyond Fitness and would fit naturally into worlds that include training, agility, and performance‑based gameplay. A Martial Arts uniform/gi should be included as part of the skill. This gives Sims a proper outfit for training, sparring, and demonstrations, and it matches the game’s existing approach to skill‑specific clothing. We already have Swordsmanship, so expanding into other martial arts forms is a natural next step. Swordsmanship proves the animation system can handle weapon stances, strikes, blocks, and flourishes. Because that foundation already exists, adding additional martial arts disciplines would be consistent and would deepen the game’s physical skill system. The skill could also include advanced martial arts forms using traditional weapons. Examples could include a guandao, naginata, bo staff, nunchaku, tonfa, or sai, just to name a few. These forms would make the skill visually impressive and give Sims more depth, cultural variety, and progression. I’d also like to see Kendo added as a skill. Kendo trains both Martial Arts and Swordsmanship, making it a natural hybrid discipline. It focuses on stance, footwork, precision, reaction timing, and controlled strikes. A Kendo skill would allow Sims to practice with bamboo swords, wear traditional armor, and train in dojos or royal training halls. It reinforces the idea that if Swordsmanship already exists, expanding into hybrid martial arts forms is the logical next step. If Kendo is added, I would also like katana‑style blades that can be used for both regular Swordsmanship and Kendo training. This keeps the equipment consistent across both skills and gives Sims a unified weapon style that fits modern, historical, and royal gameplay. I would also like wooden Kendo training swords (bokken). These are the standard beginner and practice weapons used before bamboo or steel, and they make the progression from basic training to advanced forms feel realistic and structured. This would work well for athletic Sims, performers, warriors, and royal guards, and it fits both modern and historical gameplay styles.31Views1like1CommentWorld Flag Futbol T-Shirts
I can't be the only one that wishes they would add more countries every now and then? I absolutely love using the t-shirts, but I would love to see more countries. Like Mali? Cote d'Ivoire? I lived in Mali for awhile and would love to represent. Or Portugal? Or maybe even Cuba or the DR? Maybe twice a year add 3 to 5 new flags? Or release a new kit that would add a plethora? It might be a pipe dream, but I'll keep hoping.44Views1like1CommentSuggested Skills: Gymnastics, Acrobatics, and Aerial Silks
I’d really like to see Gymnastics, Acrobatics, and Aerial Silks added as full skills in The Sims 4. These would fit naturally into the game’s existing animation style and would give Sims more physical skill progression beyond Fitness and Dance. Acrobatics already existed in The Sims 3 Showtime, so there’s a clear precedent for it. TS3 included flips, balancing, contortion, and stage performances, and those concepts translate well into TS4’s animation system. Gymnastics would cover strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination. It would also give children and teens meaningful skill progression and make objects like monkey bars actually matter. It fits perfectly with worlds that include martial arts, obstacle courses, and agility‑based gameplay. Examples of gymnastics equipment could include a vault, balance beam, rings, bars, or even a trampoline. Aerial Silks would introduce a new object and a visually striking performance skill. It combines strength and grace, works well for performers, and fits naturally into spa, gym, or wellness‑themed builds. It also complements spellcasters, dancers, and acrobatic Sims. Examples of aerial skill equipment could include aerial hoops and aerial silks. These skills would add more depth to athletic gameplay, expand performance options, and give players new ways to develop Sims who specialize in agility, movement, and physical artistry.15Views0likes0Comments💡 Ideas > ♂️ Man lifestyle for The Sims
