Windows 8 sounds like the devil

I do both. I just don't usually use the Dreamers too much aside from hooking up Dirk with Lillith. Darren's just not interesting to me tbh. But Alexander is kinda ugly but he's in college right now with a totally cute boy he found there.

I never decide if I was the Pleasant mom to stay or not because she is kinda a bitch and I really do like Kaylynn so it is kind of a toss up depending on how I feel. I always try to make Angela and Lillith friends though

The best part of making sims in TS3 is to try and make real people.

Darren has a fit body though, so he has potential to be a dilf with a makeover. Dirk and Lilith are epic

I haven't gotten over to the Dreamers yet though. I want to try out Desiderata Valley first. Since I never had Free Time or Apartment Life originally, I might as well try them now.

Btw, I tried out Belladonna Cove. I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but Kimberly and Samantha Cordial are parodies of Angela and Lilith. And there is a girl named Jessica Peterson who is basically a poor man's version of Dina Caliente (storyline wise).

And as I've said before, I don't really have a problem. I just turned off the music and disable the special events camera. The game rarely freezes as a result and I'm able to save a lot of game progress.

Now that my productive day has quieted down, I'm going to go play.

Can't remember the name of the town but it is the that comes with Seasons - there is an alternate Goth family called the Roths! Be sure to check them out!

Btw make sure to play with the Burbs y'all, because they are the best looking default family lol.

Windows 8 is pretty much useless. Half my games didn't work. So I sold my Windows 8 lappy and just chucked Windows 7 on my Mac through bootcamp.

Best decision ever.

[Teneo]

Installed the game. Brings back so many memories. Windows 8 tho. A two-textured mess

[Fred Perry]

Windows 8 is just horrible. I will never adjust to metro

- I want to play the Sims 4 CAS demo so badly

[TMTURKEY]

I'm not buying TS4 until next year

[Teneo]

In ten minutes my pc crashed 3 times and nearly died. TS4 better have some ****ing optimization because I'm not here for this mess with Windows 8

I have 8.1 and a 9 year old graphic card. I won't bore you with how to get these graphic cards working on your computer but the most important thing is to have your COMPUTER UPDATED. Windows 8 does a fantastic job of figuring out your graphic card drivers without assistance but you have to let the update run. The Sims 2 Ultimate is patched for 8 and 8.1 too. I'm not running Sims Ultimate under compatibility mode.

Sims 2 crashed the first 2-3 times I loaded it. The first few times it load it seems to be a mess for pretty much everyone. I changed nothing but it suddenly started working smoothly. Try rebooting in between. I suspect there`s some left over installation issues it goes over during the initial load. if none of that works then:

Try this link that`s been floating around this page and if that doesn`t work...

Go here a general help thread on Reddit where you can ask more specific questions if you're having trouble.

I have Windows 8 and Sims 2 Ultimate is working just fine

Seasons was one of the few EPS I originally had so I already knew of the Roths. I rarely played in Riverblossom Hills though. But since I won't buy The Sims 4, I might as well play them as much as possible.

Okay so good news that I've read according to the guys who have played the Gameplay demo.
Apparently only residential lots require loading screens (that are 15 seconds), but your Sim can explore the other lots/area's within each world without a loading screen.
You only encounter a loading screen when you change neighbourhoods. However it's only 30 seconds long, rather than 5 minutes. Also the lots are always busy, and Sims interact more with each other in a more natural way.

Meanwhile The Sims 2 UC is so good. It's completely bug free for me. The Loading times are also 30 seconds max.
I just forgot how pointless the University pack is in some way. Complete letdown aha.

[Skywalker]

LOL I want to go through University so bad but I play with, like, fifty sims at once and University is just too stressful for me. The only time I really did it was when I was playing my Wicked sims circa 2006-7.

[GeorgiaStars]

Is there any cheatcode to delete what a Sim is feeling? My sim has been stuck with the "Lost A Friend" feeling for like 10 days and it makes her depress all the time....

Sims 3? Use testingcheatsenabled and ctrl or shirt and click the moodlet, it should be gone.

Is The Sims 3 University laggy or buggy? I had to delete half the expansions when I'd have like two active lots running at once and my game would lag

Meanwhile my Mac has more than triple the System Requirements
