I bought the game on both steam and EA and neither have any working audio. It appears there are sound and music files in my local directory. I made sure my audio drivers are up to date, no spatial/5.1. All of my other games work with the same configuration. Does anyone have any solutions? The game sound works on my wifes identical PC with steam.70Views0likes0CommentsSims 1 legacy crash
Hey guys, I just bought sims 1 legacy off of steam for the nostalgia but when I try to load it a little tab in my windows bar opens and instantly shuts again and that's all that happens. I looked on reddit for answers and they got me to download the old 64 and 86 copys of c++ and to change my compatability to windows xp. I did all these things and now when i load as administer it almost loads up (screen goes black, pixels get blown up to adjust to the old style and then it shuts down again. Now I cant edit the compatability setting and I cant get any further. Why would someone sell a game on steam that doesn't work. This is a big company. Can someone help me make a game just play please. Shouldn't have to get techy to play a game on steam. Might as well of pirated it at this point.477Views0likes6CommentsSims legacy load is just a black screen

I'm playing the current updated version of the sims 1 that came out on EA app on pc, i think its called the legacy version? no mods or cc trying to use the cheat 'move_objects on' and its not working. not able to place objects without getting the red conflicting space thing happening i want to do things like place the toy boxes flush with the wall, which looks better and still allows them to function. or literally just place anything in the home, everything has such an unnecessarily large footprint around it you can't place anything flush. it all just floats in the middle of the room. i remember playing the cd rom years ago and that cheat worked perfectly. if this was a glitch, fix it. if this was intentionally removed, why the hell would you do that? seriously with this company 🙄252Views1like3Comments
