How to send a sim to university, then play as the original household instead?
Hello... It's pretty much as the title says- I want to send a sim to the university world, and then switch my active household back to the original one in the homeworld so I can play as the family with the sim temporarily gone to university. (I dont mind if they don't actually complete the degree on their own or anything, i was just going to use nraas or LTR) It doesn't have to be enrolling in university necessarily, or traveling to that world specifically i guess (though it'd be preferred), I just want to get this sim out of the homeworld for a little bit under the guise of traveling for school, but I am not sure how. I tried to follow some solutions to similar situations online but I think I just get a bit lost somewhere because they don't seem to work for me. I do have nraas traveler, among the other mods from nraas so any solutions involving those are welcome.
Sims 3 (64-bit & Metal) missing from Mac library + Store content won’t download
Hi, I really need help because I’ve been dealing with this for days and multiple EA advisors haven’t been able to fix it. I’m trying to play The Sims 3 (64-bit & Metal) on my MacBook Air (2022, M2 chip), but the game is not showing up in my EA app library at all. Here’s what’s happening: I was told by multiple EA advisors that the 64-bit version has been granted to my account It used to show up in my library before, but now it’s completely gone I only see the 32-bit version (which doesn’t work on Mac) The 64-bit & Metal version is NOT visible anywhere (library, add-ons, etc.) On top of that: When I try to download and run the version in my library (the 32-bit version), it crashes immediately ("The Sims 3 has unexpectedly closed") I cannot download ANY Sims 3 Store content The launcher gives me a download error when installing content Things I have already tried: Logging out and back into the EA app Fully uninstalling and reinstalling the EA app multiple times Clearing cache (multiple times) Restarting my computer Trying fixes provided by EA support Downloading content through the launcher and browser Nothing has worked. At this point, it seems like: The 64-bit entitlement is either not properly applied to my account OR the EA app is not syncing my library correctly on Mac What I need help with: Getting The Sims 3 (64-bit & Metal)** to actually appear in my EA app library Fixing the issue preventing Store content from downloading If anyone from EA or the community knows how to fix this (especially on Apple Silicon/M2 Macs), I would really appreciate it. Thanks.Game Seemingly Incompatible with Mod the Sims Content?
I know the title is a little strange, but I'm honestly not sure how else to describe the issue. Whenever I put my mods folder in the Sims 3 folder, I get a black screen on launch that never progresses into the main menu and can only be closed with the task manager. My mods are organized by where they were downloaded from, so I was able to discern that something from Mod the Sims is the problem, since the game opens just fine with all the other mods whenever the mod the sims folder is removed. However, no matter how many mods I weed out, nothing seems to work except removing the content entirely. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue where you had trouble downloading from a specific website? I've used mod the sims in the past, so I'm not sure why this has become an issue this time around. It's very frustrating, and I'm wondering if there's something obvious that I'm missing? Also, it might be helpful to know that I've installed all the Sims 3 Store content, and I've also made extensive use of the mods / cc dashboard tool. I have no corrupt files, and I've tried to eliminate all conflicts, but that doesn't seem to help. Any advice would be appreciated!
Stinky Npcs
I have recently got back into playing Sims 3. Having a lot of fun and game runs well. Of course there are things that were never fixed. The new issue I am having is Npcs not showering. Both at university and in the home world. My controlled Sims can use the shower just fine though it's way to fast. Which is another bug. But for whatever reason Npcs won't shower inside. I've tried replacing the shower and making sure it's routable. I even had a roommate catch fire and they put themselves out in the shower. So it makes them not using it even more strange. I end up putting the outdoor shower outside for them or having to cheat their needs. But I'd like them to shower like normal. I do play with mods and I'm on pc. If anyone know how to fix this that be great. If you need more information let me know. Thanks.
sims 3 game launcher not working mac os tahoe 26.1
Hello, ive seen alot of discussion on the launcher having a system failure when downloading .sims3pack cc. so i deleted all of them. But, I have tried downloading packages as normal and it still hasn'[t worked! I have redone the framework for a new mods folder and yata yata, but still nothing. Deleted everything from the cache, and deleted my sims 3 folder and started over. Is there any solution? i have scrolled through reddit for hours but nothing has worked.
I WANT A REFUND.
I have bought the Sims 3 on the 27th along with 10 packs thinking it would be as smooth and easy Sims 4. This game is unplayable!!! I have done all the troubleshooting on your website and with Chat gpt, 7 hours troubleshooting, it doesn't matters how many files cache are deleted, how many times I repaired it, how many times I have unistalled it and installed it, how many Microsoft processing systems I have downloaded, IT. DOESN'T. WORK!! I WANT MY MONEY BACK!! I will just go back to the Sims 4 l, with the money I can buy more packs. I thought the Sims 3 would be fun 'cause it has more things than the Sims 4, but oh my Lord, the headache it has gave me these nights of troubleshootings is not worthy, please refund me for the unplayable game you EA have sold me.
