Sims Cannot Get Out Houseboat
My sims literally just cannot leave their houseboat. When i moved them in at first, they all walked in just fine. Their son gets tped out for school, and walks back in just fine. But he literally cannot leave the house after he walks in. They dont walk to where i click and then complain about something blocking them either, they immediately complain about not being able to get there. Someone PLEASE help me out. I also moved them out and then back in, i replaced the house. NOTHING. Whats funny is, they lived in another houseboat before this one, and had no problems.

Sims3Pack files not installing or converting on Mac 64-bit
Hi, I really need help because I’ve tried everything I can think of and nothing is working. I’m playing The Sims 3 on my MacBook (64-bit version). Every time I try to put Sims3Pack files into Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3 > Downloads, the launcher crashes as soon as I click the “Downloads” button, or the files don’t show up at all to install. I even tried converting these Sims3Pack files into .package files on a Windows computer using a multi-extractor. The conversion worked, and I put the .package files into Mods > Packages. 1 worked and it was only a hair item i think, but most of my converted content doesn’t appear in-game. It’s random — one or two items will show up, but everything else is missing. My resource.cfg file is correctly set up. I know the Mods folder works because other mods (like NoIntro and NoSparkles) are showing up fine. I’ve also tried using the in-game Downloads Dashboard (Main Menu > Options > Downloads Dashboard), but nothing shows there either. At this point, I don’t know I just want to get my custom content working properly. If anyone has a solution, suggestions, or step-by-step advice, I’d be extremely grateful. Thank you!
How to install and register my SIMS 3
Hi all, I bought my SIMS 3 many years ago in DVD format. Now I want to install it and play it again, but alas after installation, the game starts but then stops and disappear without any error message, No updates are available. I tried to install the EA app and enter the Serial number printed on the inside documentation but it says that the number is invalid. Therefore, I cannot register the game and I cannot play it or upgrade it. I am using a Windows 10 64 bits PC. Please, is it possible to play it? Thanks, ciao.Sims 3 keeps crashing after 30 mins (dx diag included)
I accidentally updated my game to the newest 2025 version (1.69.47) a few days ago, and now my game wont run beyond 30 mins. My game used to run 3 - 4 hours with the highest settings, mods, and merged cc. I use RegulSaveCleaner and delete my saves regularly. I also make sure that I have enough running because I have the Task Manager open. Since the update, my game has been crashing. Things I've tried but did not work: playing in Windows 8 playing in Windows 7 repairing the game through the EA app removing core mods (Simler's Core Mod and Nraas error trap). These are still removed removed Smooth_Id patch/mod. This is still removed switched affinity to CPU 1 only before switching back to 'all processors' updating the graphics card (it is up to date) Not sure what it could be! My game was running perfectly fine before the update, and I have been playing in a large world (Alpine County, I think) for years. DXDIAG ATTACHED
Stuck on Vacation
So, I haven't posted in a hot minute. I rage quit playing since october, when I kept getting stuck when trying to send my sim home from vacation in China. I'm not sure what is happening, but it has taken the joy out of the game for me. It will get stuck on the loading screen where you can click on the things for points. Yes, I've tried not clicking it at all. It gets it almost all the way loaded then just.... doesn't finish. I can't switch families to play games in that neighborhood and it was my FAVORITE neighborhood. My only other option is to MAYBE save the neighborhood itself and make another copy? but I don't know if that will just recreate a corrupted file since one of my sims is stuck on a permanent vacation... help?PC for Sims 3 and Sims 4 and all DLCs
Hello, I am having issues with my Sims 3 since downloading on my MacOS. I want to transfer all games to a PC and use my Mac just for work. I need a Windows PC to access my old DLCs for Sims 3. Would this be a good PC to purchase? Also, hoping this fixes the issue I am having with Roaring Heights, I tried deleting and redownloading with no success Trying not to spend a crazy amount on this https://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-omnibook-x-flip-2-in-1-copilot-pc-16-2k-touch-screen-laptop-amd-ryzen-ai-5-16gb-memory-512gb-ssd-meteor-silver/6613869.p?skuId=6613869&extStoreId=373&utm_source=feed&ref=212&loc=22616781737&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22610441925&gbraid=0AAAAAD-ORIjcstA5CZOKYRu-eNNL-PQtO#tabbed-customerreviewsCannot get Sims 3 or Sims Medieval to run without lagging/freezing
I tried the Alderlake patch with no improvement, all of my sims files are stored on my D drive. I have a Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 graphics card in a ROG laptop. Processor is an Intel Core i7 - 8th gen. Would love to play these games for the nostalgia, plays sims 4 no problem with lots of expansions and CC.
