Sims and Sims 2 legacy collection
I bought the Sims and Sims 2 legacy collection and I didn't receive the bonus Sims 4 kits on either. The grunge revival or the throwback fitness kits. Amazon will not help me and EA won't help me. It has been a nightmare, Amazon says I have to contact ea the game developer and EA says I have to contact amazon the retailer I bought it from. I have tried to resolve this issue for days. Neither company is taking responsibility. They wont even try for a solution they just tell me to contact the other company there is nothing they can do.35Views0likes2CommentsThe Sims™ Legacy Collection won't Launch - Crashes without error
Hello! I recently updated my PC to have a RTX 5080 graphics card and AMD Ryzen 9 9900X3D processor. It runs Windows 11 Pro. After reinstalling The Sims™ Legacy Collection, it fails to launch. Crashing immediately, without any error messages. The icon just flashes in the task bar. I have been looking through the forums and none of the suggestions have been able to help me resolve this issue. I have tried the following: Have the latest version of the game installed Installed the latest windows updates Updated my graphics card drivers Configured windows to launch the game in low power mode Tried launching the game in Windows XP compatibility mode - as administrator Tried reinstalling the Microsoft redistributables from 2015 and newer. Collected my DxDiag and Vulkan info logs Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!988Views4likes20CommentsClone Drone Jr. charm doesn't work
I use the charm and create a clone that goes to school instead of my child sim, but the school grade still drops by one grade level which makes the charm useless. I googled this and found that "Due to an unpatched bug, the child's grades will still drop by one grade level even though the clone has gone to school." Maybe this old bug could be fixed?111Views1like2CommentsSims 1 Legacy too zoomed in and blurry
I've been playing since the Legacy version was released. I had relatively few problems and the scaling was fine, everything looked really nice still and was clear and readable. I just launched it for the first time in about a month, and suddenly it's all blurred and in terrible resolution. I've changed nothing on my computer, everything is the same as it was when I first played. Did an update mess something up, or did something else happen? I'm running Windows 11, 1920x1080p, new-ish graphics card (Nvidia model within the last few years). Basically nothing has changed, I haven't even changed any system settings.186Views0likes3CommentsRemove regional differences in NBHD Screen / Unblock all music for non-US locale
Right now there is a difference when you play The Sims 1 Legacy using English language or any other: ENGLISH: the random track from \The Sims Legacy\Music\Modes\NhoodUS plays every time you visit the Neighborhood Screen, including: latin6.mp3 latin7.mp3 nhood1.mp3 nhood2.mp3 nhood3.mp3 - the iconic one which is absent in other languages ALL OTHER LANGUAGES: the random track from \The Sims Legacy\Music\Modes\Nhood plays every time you visit the Neighborhood Screen, including: latin2.mp3 latin4.mp3 latin6.mp3 latin7.mp3 so it basically plays Latin America style music even with European locales. What is the special need for this kind of segregation? in other the sims iterations there is small changes like clockwise or not road traffic, but not the music. Just include the all tracks in all locales, that would be fair. I think that nhood3.mp3 is the iconic one because the music matches the motifs of skill leveling up notification sound. And it exists only in English version. I'm also not sure that there is any sense at having different images with this black (World) or gray (US) asphalte roads in NBHD Screen like NScreen_unleashed.bmp and NScreen_unleashed_nonus.bmp from \The Sims Legacy\UIGraphics\Community. The black looks closer to the actual in-game lots using black asphalte tiles, and the US version has the gray asphalte and the road marks. If only black version could have these marks it would be perfect. Right now black roads looks unnatural without these separation lines.83Views3likes1CommentZ-Buffers on outside SW Wall
Are you all aware there is a serious z-buffer issues where objects bleed through the SW Wall? Well, now you are! Please look into this. If nobody has mentioned it here, well it's been mentioned in a lot of other forums and is a real issue that needs addressing. Thanks, Heather C.40Views0likes1CommentBrand New PC... Game Won't Start
Hey, everyone. I've attached the specs of my new PC here. Any ideas on how to get the game to start? I just get a black screen and sometimes some sound. It messes my PC up so much that the task manager even crashes. The EA Error Reporter app just freezes when I try to submit a report. Insanely frustrating!94Views0likes0CommentsTS1L Vulkan?
Absolutely no hate to the amazing help on this forum!! Thankful for you guys. But I have questions, as I find it quite odd how we have been posting here for 3 weeks begging for the Vulkan error to be fixed.. threads on threads of asking for dxdiag’s and ‘Vulkan info’ and consumers riding on hope that it will get fixed so we all can play it. No mention that we will not be compatible with our systems, just that it’s being worked on or radio silence until the next patch arrived. Then suddenly after the 2/20 patch - the majority of us still having issues come to the forum once again - and all of a sudden we are informed we don’t meet minimum specs because our computers don’t support Vulkan, and we will not be able to play TS1L on our specific systems due to it. Why were we not told this 2 days after the release so we were all ‘eligible for refunds’? Rather than keeping us all hooked that possibly it’s going to work after 3 patches and 20 days (coincidentally past the refund time frame)? What is EA going to do about resolution with those of us that can’t play it and aren't ‘eligible’ for refunds, but Vulkan was never originally apart of the required specs upon the day of the release? Like I said, absolutely no hate to the EA folks on here actually helping folks! But this whole ordeal really changed my pov of buying future games and sims 4 packs from EA🙈Solved295Views2likes8Comments
