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.

UI Turn ons/Turn offs broken
In CAS when trying to add turn ons/turn offs the ui lacks numbers and like/dislike buttons. Not sure what happened in the 2 december 2025 update, but I doubt this was what they had in mind. Playing on PC, never used mods or CC. Edit by crinrict Workaround Please see this post for a workaround: UI Turn ons/Turn offs broken | EA Forums - 12981725
[CD] [HR] Disappearances of Pets and Horses in Premade Households
When starting a new game with update 1.117.227.1030 (PC) and visiting the worlds of Chestnut Ridge and Brindleton Bay, all households with pets or horses will lose their animals — only Sims will remain. Mayor Whiskers and Captain Whitaker will also disappear. On the Manage Households screen, images of the missing animals will remain for a while. However, if you go to Chestnut Ridge or Brindleton Bay and hover over their house, the animals will disappear. However, if you load a family with animals from the gallery, save the game, and then reload it, the animals will remain in the household. I tested this with the Life is Golden family their dog Lulu remained in place. Beforehand, I deleted the Sims 4 folder from Documents, repaired the game through the EA app, and started a new game.No bladder Failure
Sims can't have bladder failure. Turned off autonomy and left my sim in water to complete formative moment to have a bladder failure in the water and it doesn't happen nor in pool, nor in open water. Was walking towards the nearest bathroom, which was pretty far, still no bladder failure.
Sims walking through solid objects
When leaving or entering a room, door opens but sim walks through the door part and not open space part. Tried on both a lot with move objects on used and without. Tried pointing door both ways. Removed door and put open arch and Sim walked through wall next to it. Tried in both small and larger room. Tried in old and new save. Also pets (only play with cats so they are small) are walking through objects even other sims. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title Note from EA_Solaire: Hello all, If any of you are still encountering this on the latest game version (without mods), would you be willing to share your save file(s)? If so, please send me a private message with a link to the file. Instructions can be found here: https://forums.ea.com/idea/the-sims-4-bug-reports-en/information-how-to-send-user-files-to-the-sims-4-team/5048472 Thanks!Infant returned to newborn, mother returned to 3rd trimester after entering CAS
Very odd. Base game only, no mods. Went to CAS immediately after aging up a newborn. Baby had a newborn outline in CAS. Edited mother's surname to agree with husband's, wanted to edit the baby's surname as well but can't select or edit newborns in CAS. Exited CAS, and the baby was back in the bassinet and mother was back to third trimester, and other things about the mother seem to have reverted to previous save (except the mother had not gotten pregnant, let alone advanced to third trimester after the baby was born, so this was a previous save state with the addition of the newborn.)
Mac error “The Sims™ 4 is already running.”
I wanted to check whether I could use The Sims 4 again, as I have been unable to play for several months due to a launch error. Previously, the game stopped launching entirely via the EA App. Clicking Play would either do nothing or the app would claim the game was already running when it clearly was not. I was never able to resolve this and stopped trying. I am still unable to play, but I am now getting a different error. When attempting to launch The Sims 4, I receive the following message: “The Sims™ 4 is already running.” Error code: [ed35eDea:29f00e76:00000000:18a1dd51] The game does not open at all, and no Sims-related processes remain active. My system is: macOS Monterey Version 12.7.6 MacBook Air (13-inch, 2017) Processor 1.8 GIz Dual-Core Intel Core iS Memory 8GB 1600 Mriz DDR3 Graphics Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB Fixes already attempted, none of which worked: restarted the Mac multiple times, force-quit all EA and Sims processes in Activity Monitor, repaired the game in the EA App, fully uninstalled and reinstalled The Sims 4, fully uninstalled and reinstalled the EA App, deleted all Sims and EA-related files including Documents/Electronic Arts and all EA/Sims cache, logs, and preference files in the Library folders, and performed a completely clean reinstall after deleting everything. The game does not launch far enough to recreate a Sims 4 folder, so this is not related to mods, saves, or corrupted user files. I don’t use mods or cc. I’m honestly at my wits end with this game. At this point I’ve been unable to access a game and content I own for over 6 months and I feel like I’ve been robbed. I would like to know whether this error is a known issue on macOS Monterey, and if there is a confirmed fix or official acknowledgement of the problem.[ROM] Spellcasters w/ Familiar have issues using ladders
Did you guys break something with a recent pack or patch/update? I'm running into bugs left and right now, the only thing I've changed is add some of the new packs. I assume basic things like climbing ladders is part of the base game coding. Packs are minimal and just add a few things on top of the base game, separate coding. If I can place a ladder, sims should be able to use it? I have a ladder my sims were using, then they started complaining about path blockage. But the ladders haven't moved, nothing has changed. They lost the ability to use them and are throwing path complaints. I'll make separate reports for each bug I've been running into suddenly. Edit By crinrict: Adjusted Title fit old bug report.
