I just bought TS4 for 24 bucks. I figured I would never pay 60 for it but I'm tired of my crack randomly not working so I bit the bullet. Can I pirate the DLC on a legit copy?
>>
>>146378180
It can be fun for a day or 2.

Problem with it was that it's more "story-driven" whatever the word was now exactly while still having pretty much every story-thingy be in rabbit-holes.

Also inability to play the campaign game and save your kingdom for next mission really annoyed me, made customising your castle'n shit feel redundant though there should be "free roam" way to play it too ignoring the main mission and just playing it sort of like Sims.

Give it a try for free obviously

>>
>>146378180

No, it's fun.
I love medieval settings so if you do too, you'll like this one. If you like the sims and like rpgs, play it.

The bad things for me are that too many things happen off screen. For example, you send your sim somewhere and then read what cool things happened but not actually see it. Also, can't freely build. You can place stuff and decorate though.

As always, I recommend pirating because fuck EA.
>>
>>146378791
>>146378886
Yeah, I like medieval settings. I will try it out for free, there can be no harm in that. Right?
>>

One of the more fun sim games, just try it for a bit.
Not really as 'replayable' as normal sim games, but still pretty good.

Nope.
Just put your legit copy on another computer to download tray files from the gallery, if you're into that.

I tried to get my sim with this fire fighter too but he was too comitted to his dyke gf, she's strong too.

Did EA remove the step child thing? In 3 it was recognized that my sim was his sons step mother but it doesn't show up in 4

Yes, there's no stepchild relationship and the sims act like they're unrelated. All good sims of pure hearts kick out their spouse's children, lest they be tempted.

Since I know once the Kids Pack comes out there'll be another 6 months to a year before the next crack, I'm thinking of biting the bullet and buying the Sims 4.

All up, it's fucking expensive, but I can get the base game and the two EPs for a decent(ish) price. I won't install until my game's completely up to date, but it might be the way to go for me.

Am I retarded? EA are unrepentant money-grubbers, but I genuinely have fun with this game and want to stay up to date in the future.

>>146425281
Best music for sure but it's a bit dated now

I play TS2 with the music from 1 anyway

I was thinking real hard about it, and it seems like it be hard to make a simulation game like this. There's so many things to put into account when making something like this. I wouldn't even know what to call it.
>>
>>146425364
I like how ts2 let you add your own music to every radio station in the game

All things considered TS2 is probably the best considering its improvments over its predecessor
TS1 has by far the most charm but is pretty rough when you go back to play it, TS3 has the most content and an open world but runs and looks like shit, while TS4 looks nice but only really has DUDE PARTIES LMAO content atm
>>
>>146425692
People honestly underestimate the time and effort required to make these games.

There were a few games made during the life of the first one trying to imitate.

They had larger budgets and dev teams.

Yet they had more limited focus and far more limited gameplay.

Will Wright was just a fucking Genius.

Plain and simple.

How would I convince WW to help me? I should probably be posting this in /agdg/ though. Like just breaking it down in my head it's just so much and I would need a good group of people for each and every task.

If you're trying to make a Sims competitor/spiritual successor, What engine do you want to make it in? Might I suggest you make it in Unreal or Source?
>>
>>146429070
I don't know who those are.

But, some perspective. Like, the sims 4 has about 30 people with animator in their titles.

That's not even including the part of the animation team in charge of modeling.

You'd need an absurd amount of know how and a massive team to work on something of this scale.

Good luck to you.

>>146429565

I wonder how much of that is just thin air, people who just pretty much fiddle their thumbs and such.
>>
>>146429487
I've heard of Unreal but I've never heard of Source, is it like Unreal?


>>146429565
Wright, should have just typed out his full name. And yes I would need an overwhelming amount of people.

Does EA hire people for motion capture or do they use the people on hand?

I'll take all the people EAs fired from the Sims project, has EA been mostly hiring women as of late? Which company had said that they hire based on "_______ and not skill/talent?"

Installation was literally install and move to desktop if you have an issue saying something about Origin.
I have no mods, game runs at 40-50FPS just fine with no hiccups. I get into building my house and it just up and dies forcing me to hold the power button and restart.
Other than character creation I think I prefer Sims 3 truth be told. Might just torrent that.

So what's your favorite skill in the sims game yer currently playing / each sims title you've played?
>>
>>146430730
Thanks.

I played with the idea of having the option for 'realistic' features and some 'anime-ish', though many people might not be into that, while playing 4 the other night I thought it would be nice to be more interactive with certain things you can buy in game instead of just having it 'there'

>>146438172
I always choose cooking, every single time.
>>
>>146438640
What other features do you want the game to have?
>>
>>146438640
Hard to go wrong with cooking. That's for sure.
>>
>>146439330
I was thinking about a city but it seems like too much for now so a small town or several. Interactive work stations for cooking/cop/firefighter/burglar, the idea of being able to control your character and picking and choosing what you want to steal seems fun.

Has the Sims ever had a hairstylist? I thought about that and you work your way up with your customers hair.

Abandoned places that are broken down from weather that brave characters or teenagers can explore.

Just a lot of things I'd probably need to get really good at first and have a good team I could count on.
>>
>>146433386
Are you like a legit SJW?

>DUDE COLLEGE PARTIES LMAO

Followed by

>DUDE CLUBBING LMAO
>>
>>146441815
I'm thinking there could also be a gentrification aspect and an education/teacher career. Some things that EA doesn't include like teenage pregnancy or diabetes or even sperm donor options
>>
>>146442049
I thought about pregnant teens because there are a lot of those and I've thought of having handicap characters or at least characters in wheelchairs.

A teacher would be nice, but doing lessons and all those students. Wew.

Seasonal weather would be in the base game also no 39.99 expansion for the 4 seasons. I'm also curious as to what people want to see.

I've also played around with the idea of having alcoholics and methheads.
>>
>>146442328
That's a lot of stuff...

I'm not even sure that would appeal to the typical sims player honestly.
>>
>>146442328
How would you like the idea of a playable afterlife or angels that could preform miracles(cure the sick, bring the dead back to life, heal injuries)? And I agree about handicapped/disabled characters, none of the games have that which I think is stupid. I think that it would also need lots of customization options including gender, instead of bullet points you would have gender and sex sliders as well as body shape. As well if toddlers are in the game they should actually be able to do more than just sit in one spot and look cute, like maybe the game could let you set up playdates between toddlers and kids.
>>
>>146442774
Yeah, it's really a mixed feeling. Personally I feel more content would be good so you don't get easily bored but then there's the others who just like it as is or barebones
>>
>>146442774
The typical sims player would be a chick like Pupinia Stewart who thinks England is on another planet and doesn't know what British Pounds are. It doesn't have to appeal to the typical player. But from some of the features this sounds like a cross between Sims and GTA, like an Urbz 2 of sorts
>>
>>146443143
I don't know who Pupinia Stewart is.

But yes. I'm not really sure who his target audience is.

I'm wondering if it's simmers in general. Or if he's trying to appeal to certain parts of the fandom.
>>
>>146442891
I honestly haven't really thought about an afterlife aspect, maybe a werewolf living at the edge of town if there was anything supernatural going on

There would be a height slider, and something for body hair, 4 damn games and no body hair unless the character is a wolf.

I think the toddler play dates would be nice because, well they happen, one thing I dislike is how they made all toddlers the same and annoying, while I agree most are annoying as fuck there are some toddlers who are well behaved and don't cry about a lot of things here and there. It's like they've never been around different types of tots and just spoiled ones.

Also with hair and clothes I though maybe for starters about 30 masculine and 30 feminine hairstyles that don't have a lock so like eastern games you're male character can have his twin tails, much more clothing options and furniture options.

It sucks when they have hardly any vintage furniture and you have to work with what's there and hope it matches.

>>146443790
They don't really have too much in them. Just look for something that appeals to you I guess.

I like Romantic garden stuff.

The wishing well is neat. And I just really landscaping so the plants with 10 gorillion color pallets is pretty nice for me.

Cute hair and clothes are in it.

But I only have that one and Movie Hangout.
>>
>>146443574
Also I'm thinking that like sims 4 you don't need special clothes for pregnancy and instead it creates the morphs for you. Teens should have a height difference, being shorter than adults and be about a blend of 2/3rds adult to 1/3rd child. I'm also thinking there could be a preteen stage as well, more childlike in appearance and interactions by default are locked so that you can't get past kissing and aren't allowed to drink alcohol or smoke. If you unlock the interactions in the game's settings you'll get achievements like "get a room" and a trait called "delinquent" added to the character.

A lot of the original team probably left for other studios as happens in the industry and what's left is... what came up with TS4.
Maxis had some cool ideas, but unfortunately they were a failure as a company. I think they had ideas ahead of their time, and now it's too late. They even lost their office and now work with EA's mobile games branch.
Spore was a complete failure, Simcity is basically dead, The Sims 4 is just a cash cow for graphic design artists.

It's crazy.
Paysites only exist because server space was fucking expensive in 2000, and modding sites couldn't cope with the demand when The Sims exploded in popularity overnight.

But then sever space became cheap, and TS2 was less popular than TS1 (4.5 million sold instead of 11.24), but instead of getting rid of the pay-to-download model, they doubled down on it and began raking in crazy profits.

And now we have a generation of modders who think it's perfectly acceptable to get paid for their hobby.

There are 3 websites you watch. Skid Row Games, Skid Row & Releaded Games, and Games4TheWorld.

When they finish releases, they will be on their websites. Don't both downloading anything unless it is listed as a new release on their website. They all have websites, despite being shady as fuck, and they are kept mostly up to date. I personally keep an eye on http://www.skidrowreloaded.com. But to each their own.

That said, I have not heard a single official word that a version of Dine-Out was in the works. They don't release updates for every expansion/stuff pack/whatever. They might just skip it and hold off for a large upcoming patch or something.
>>
>>146521958
Rumour has it that they're waiting for the Kids pack before they release anything.

Most recent cracks have been after a game pack or expansion, but this stuff pack was rumoured so soon before Dine Out that it wouldn't make sense to crack the game when there'll be another update a week later.

I feel I have to speak up about that comment. The Sims 2 and 3 saw massive traffic from modders. With the exception of some of the adult sites, most places didn't even require registration (free, anyway) to browse.

The Sims 4 has seen an enormous plummit of activity from the premier sims modders. For example, MATY hasn't done jack shit. Their Awesomeware mod was one of the 2 main core mods being used for both of those games.

The reasons is that the Sims 4 has been a failure since before it even went retail. People already saw screenshots, already knew it was built on a mobile-gaming platform, already knew how much was stripped out of the game .... modders are by and large just not interested in The Sims 4 itself, yet alone in modding it.

This leaves an open window because the supply:demand ratio is off balance now. People want mods, and the pros aren't making them. That means people can start charging for them or be dicks in general.

Basically, this is all EAs fault for making a game that no serious player is interested in. They cater to kids who don't actually pay for their games. The casual players. Because that's where their payday comes from. But what they neglect is that mods are what powers The Sims and by neglecting that community, they're burning the casuals that look for those mods.

... well, how often does this thread die? Nuff said. Bethesda is in the middle of their own crisis right now where their Bethesda.net bullshit has their community in a upgroar and Bethesda's reputation is pretty much fucked forever. They'll never regain their reputation.

Long story, to be honest. Bethesda.net introduced their mod-hosting platform with the intent of being THE source of mods (surplanting NexusMods). The amount of things that went terrible wrong after that is astounding. Like insteading of policing stolen mods, they told the authors to file DMCA takedown requests. Before that, they ignored the rampant theft for over a week. Before even that, they erased hundreds of thousands of mods that people had no backups of (since their site doubles as a cloud) in prder to implement a system of tagging submissions for consoles. Least of all, the website is retarded and hard to navigate. The list goes on and on. Now mod authors are removing/hiding all their mods so others cant get to them/steal them, they're pulling all their content from Bethesda and moving to Nexus. Console players are fucking furious and blame PC gamers for being douchebags when console gamers were the ones stealing mods in the first place. It's a disaster.

The bottom line is they gave a very, very prominent middle finger to the modding community. This is Bethesda. Elder Scrolls, Fallout. Games whose success is 80% built on the modding community. And Bethesda told them to go fuck themselves. It's absolutely insane.

There is no way they can turn this around.

The Sims 4 was original made to be a mobile game. Which is why it performs amazingly well compared to Sims 3, but is completely stripped all the little things that gave TS3 it's soul. You can google this. It's pretty common knowledge. That is why there was initially no pools or landscaping. No elevation changes. No toddlers. Adults/teens same wardrobe. Etc etc ... the reason it's stripped down is because it had to meet system requirements of tablets and phones.

>the little things that gave TS3 it's soul
Like what?

TS3 feels hollow as fuck.

I know TS4 wasn't originally going to be like it is now.
It had a lackluster launch but it's shaped up to be a great game.

EA forced the sims team into making a shitty game they didn't want to make and nobody wanted to play.

Thankfully they were able to scrap it and give us a proper sims game. However they had to cut some shit because of time constraints.

I'm not aware of it ever being a mobile game though.

I don't see a phone ever being powerful to run it.
>>
>>146529208
>TS3 feels hollow as fuck
This.
If you want a Sims game with soul, look at TS1 and TS2.

TS3 had an open world (with nothing to do in it) and CAST, but that's basically it.

>impossible to add animations
>impossible to add sliders
The game is gimped, and the lewd community is already beyond dead as a result. But it doesn't stop there, a lack of animation mods fucks over anyone trying to RP, all they are left with is default shit, endless shitty cc and the tedious pose mods. Pretty sure the only community there is left for the Sims 4 is the tumblr parasites chasing adbucks, their stupid fans, and retards like this thread clinging to the scraps of The Sims - much like Maxis.
As it is now, MCCC is the only mod keeping Sims 4 from being irredeemable trash, a tool that should already be in the game, a debug and scenario control kit.
Reminder companies used to ship out map editors with their games in better times.
On that note, all that matters for Betheshit is that they release the CK, because Gamebryo is ancient but can easily be modded and barely changed at all.

I might just stop bumping this thread.
I'm sure someone will, at least it'll be one less and the thread might die.

I just realized most of the discussion is bitching about shit, and that's only sustainable if there's multiple shitposters wasting each other's time and posts like there is right now (me and the other guy, which isn't even enough if one of us gets bored - which I am, I discussed TS4 being bad to death 2 years ago). And other people are wasting their time reading these posts. There's literally LITERALLY nothing left here.

Nobody posts TS2 or other game screenshots, they just talk about downloading it. Nobody posts TS3 anymore. People ask about the crack, but for the most part TS4 screenshots without text and/or single line posts are posted just to keep the thread from archival.

There's a butt slider built in to the game. Is the new meme people saying ts4 has less customization options than ts1?

>>146532039
The problem is the lack of cracks. There's all this new content coming out that none of us can use, with no word on when we'll be able to.

I ended up biting the bullet and got the TS4 base game while it's on sale, and I'll be building up my collection over the next few paychecks. Once I have some actual new content to play with, I'll be much more inclined to play the game.

I think this is why Reddit, Tumblr and obviously the official forums all have (relatively) thriving Sims communities, but here on 4chan it's pretty dead: many, if not most of us, are pirates with nothing new to play with, whereas other communities have a steady stream of new content.

Good?

Because, unless I'm mistaken, most pirated games don't support mods.

And I'm asking because I'd like to know if I can use mods before I download them.
>>
>>146543178
All pirated versions of the sims support mods, and if you think they don't it's because mods are disabled in the SETTINGS MENU under the "other" or "misc" section. Guess what, sometimes the game won't recognize mods out of the box and you have to enable it to recognize them manually.

How can people be this stupid?
>>
>>146543720
Well before you call people stupid, mods created with a newer version of the game are not compatible with the unupdated version of the game. Including something as simple as clothing mods.
>>
>>146544067
That may have been true for Sims 3, but with Sims 4 unless you're installing it off the disc and running it unpatched, you shouldn't have issues with clothing or any type of mods as most of them don't need a specific patch level to run.

There's no harm in getting some clothes or furniture and seeing if everything works properly. Just stay away from script mods.

I think people did have problems with incompatible clothes and this was going from newer patch to things made for older patch, which is usually safer, but still. It might have been at the beginning of TS4's lifetime, it changed a lot back then because they released an unfinished game. Probably safer nowadays.

Or maybe that's just my preferences.

Only lots even worth visiting sometimes are the library and gym at the start and maybe festival grounds a few times but it loses it's attraction quickly.

I think this actually looks good - aside from the stupid windows, grey bullshit wall edge, poor tiling, and the opaque door windows.
This was a half ass mod, but I think some of the Minecraft textures would have a place in interior wallpaper/flooring in addition to memebuilds if they were ported.
The question is do I bother.

Yeah, that's why I don't really get the demand for open world.
Open world games are great when there's something in that world that justifies it, but when it's just rabbitholes (and not even ALL the rabbitholes; half the EPs could only be used in the worlds those packs shipped with) then there's no real point to them.

The grey stone bricks are to the same scale as the dark rock to the right of the middle, but...

>>146555158
To the left is a handmade upscale of the texture on the right.
Everything in the existing Minecraft mod is 16x instead of the 32x which is basically an upgrade.
Using those, tthe bricks should look better with my port, without even counting the fact they'll be seamless.

Just a matter of deciding which textures are worth porting. I'll probably give up when I finish the texture porting and try to fix the doors and windows.

>EA forced the sims team

Correction. There is no "Sims Team." EA has an internally policy of rotating their employees around from project to project every few months. An artist working on Star Wars: The Old Republic one month could be doing art for The Sims 4: Pets the next month. The reasons they do this are numerous, but it's mainly to prevent any 1 employee from becoming too familiar and famous with a franchise which would skyrocket their value (both to the franchise, and to their net worth and bargaining strength). They don't want irreplaceable, overpayed employees who get credit for their amazing work instead of EA getting all the praise (Think Sid Meier, for example).

This is, without a doubt, one of this biggest amounts of dumb-fuckery to come out of EA. It's why all their games feel very non-fluid - almost as if different people with different visions were leading the team every other month. Makes sense now, right?

Now consider the problems that stem from that. People unfamiliar with the code or artistic direction tossed into the deep end and expected to not make waves.

Ever look at the tuning files for the Sims? Notice how many notes there are? How it's practically a teaching aid on how to code the game? Hint: Those aren't for modders. Those are for EA's new hires.
>>
>>146557247
Is it the tags on them that are breaking them or what?
>>
>>146530107
>>146529208

The base game of TS3 had hundreds of features, such as memories, toddlers, tera-forming, repo-man, grocery stores, male body hair, eyelashes, comfort/environment need, private school, burglars, acne, cutscenes, dreams, restaurants, swings, newspapers, bikes, pool tables, hot tubs, fewer CAS traits, and worldbuilding, that TS4 did not. Hell, TS4 was originally not even a 64-bit executable. The actual list is absolutely enormous. And this is just base game vs. base game. You can't say that TS3 and TS4 were on equal footing and that TS4 had the same soul that TS3 did when it came out.

While Sims 4 has slowly been adding these features back in (mostly at YOUR expense), the fact remains that Sims 3 was born with them. Born with a collective soul, and not hastily built up like a lopsided, compartmentalized Jenga tower.
>>
>>146530495
>>sims is dead because 4 has no sex mods xD
>
>holy shit kill yourself.

If you believe that sex doesn't drive the world marketplace, you must be 12 years old. Everything ever achieved or created in the world was done at least in part to get someone off. VHS was born from the demand to watch porn at home in private. You think VR was demanded by people who wanted a more realistic Fallout experience and not just POV porn? The internet is 83.5% porn. Internet media streaming was invented by a porn mogul. That lubricant that use on a pregnant woman's belly to do an ultrasound? The formula was perfect by application in sexual scenarios.

It's estimated that over 60% of Fallout 4 copies on PCs use nude female models from, that's right, mods. And there's hundreds of mods for clothing and scenarios stemming from that.

>They still can, they can't use the gallery.

This needs to be elaborated because it's misleading. They CAN use the gallery. They can't access online content from in-game. They can't browse other people's creations. But they can certainly save their own stuff and come back to it later - in the gallery.
>>
>>146553649
>Yeah, that's why I don't really get the demand for open world.

Sims 4 is open world. It's just segmented. It's smaller worlds of clusters of 5 houses instead of the whole neighborhood. People keep saying Sims 4 isn't open world, when it really is - It is just nerfed to hell because the game was meant for iPads and shit. It's perfectly open world.

Sims 2? Now THAT was NOT open world.

Certainly not on the release. You couldn't even add additional lots to existing worlds on earlier patches if I remember correctly.

Don't get me wrong, even without those things, TS3 had way more to it on it's release than TS4 did.

Well that's not open world when you've got that small segments. It's instanced. You could argue that any game is open world just in smaller segments.

You said people with a desire for sex mods should kill themselves. I pointed out the majority of players want sex mods. If they exist for a game, the players want them. If they don't exist, the players want to make them.

Sex drives all industries, right down to xerox machines and seatbelt manufacturers. They all have ties to the sex industry. Use your imagination, then research, and you'll find connections. Seat belts? Ropes, bondage, buckles, all tied to the same manufacturers. Xerox? Photographic copies, self explanatory. Every single industry has sex at its foundation, or at the very least as a support beam.

The Sims 4 is no exception.

NPC Sims are awful parents, generally. Their own needs are almost always in awful shape, so one can't really expect them to care for children that well. Thankfully sim kids are hardy little creatures, vulnerable only to the machinations of the social worker.

Hello anons of /tsg/. The Sims 3 and most of it's DLC are on sale on Steam for 5 dollorydoos, and I have been wanting to play it for a while. Would you recommend getting it now, and if so, which DLC should I get? I think about getting about 5 or 6.
Also, what mods would you recommend to fix it's god awful optimization and loading times, or just any good mods in general?
Thank you. Pic unrelated.

You definitely want to get NRAAS overwatch, errortrap, and mastercontroller(for manually debugging things during play).

Which game had better pets/vamps/witches, 3 or 2?
>>
>>146561837
>features are a game's soul
Not what I was talking about. I was talking more about character. Maxis games used to have a certain absurdist charm to them that you don't really see in The Sims any more.

Fuck, it's why every other family in TS3 was "lol we're a clever pop culture reference". They didn't write their own jokes. They threw Tobias Funke and the family from Bewitched and the fucking Capitol from The Hunger Games, and passed it off as their own creativity.

>>146600732
pets were great in 2.

I had fun with vamps and witches in 3 though.

never had them in 2.

Pets were alright in 3. Disappointed that they couldn't get jobs though.

Never was big on pets regardless though. Mostly bought it for my sister.

She loved that 3 had horses in it.

Can anyone recommend a good sliders mod for Sims 3, or is master controller good enough?
>>
>>146600732
2 had the better pets, although they were still pretty bare-bones. Pets need to be in the base game, or they need a MASSIVE expansion pack to really flesh them out. I don't care if I have to pay more than usual for it, there's never enough for them to do compared to human Sims at the normal pricing. They should count as a base game of their own in terms of content.

Witches were awful in 2, though. Never did much with them in 3 mind you, as I got pretty bored with the game by then.

i just started 4 and made my self-insert. he already had 3 hot girls dancing with him in his kitchen so its obviously very unrealistic. anyway, my question is, should i make more households and bounce around playing with different PC and NPC households? i don't really know the game's mechanics beyond making a house. once i do that the gameplay is following an identical loop of shitting eating and showering every day to fill bars. apparently there is fun to be had and stories to be played out in there somewhere.

I want to play 2 but I don't have room for it and all the expansions and I'm not sure if taking off a couple expacs will fuck up the game.

>the family from Bewitched and the fucking Capitol from The Hunger Games,

I need to follow pop culture more, I guess, because these went completely over my head. Where were these references? I got the Tobias one, but missed the others.
>>
I never used Pets in any sims game
>>
>>146608829
Sims 3 is the perfect sims game if it werent for ugly Sims and the game running like shit.

I mean....
>>
>>146608920
Bewitched was in Supernatural, which was pretty much nothing BUT pop culture references. Charmed, Twilight, Teen Wolf... think of a teen drama with a supernatural element, and it was in that pack.

The Hunger Games world was in Into the Future. Oasis Landing was basically an exact replica of how it appears in the movies. It even had a coal mining district.
>>
>>146571586
So, rather than offering options to users of old computer equipment, i.e. partnering up with HP or Dell and proposing a 5-8% discount, on a more durable computer with game bundle, EA pulls this "one size fits all" crap and holds back anyone with a better unit.
>>
>>146609343

As a game dev for a major studio, let me say The Sims 3 should have run immaculately even at ultra-speed. Saves should not have taken more than 2 seconds even on slow systems.

That game was very, very poorly optimized from Day 1. And they way they kept adding expansions as separate entities instead of merging them into the main body (think adding extra arms and legs, instead of just shoving them inside the torso to form a neat round ball) really amplified the issue. EA has always done this, and still do. Sims 4 is slightly better, but there are still entirely too many loose files. It's like having to pick up 400 sheets of toilet paper instead of just picking up the roll with the 400 sheets wrapped around it.

I honestly have no idea why they do this. It must be something handed down from above because even shitty programmers wouldn't use the methods they're using.
>>
>>146610902
I'd wager their main customerbase is soccer-moms and little girls with shitty wal-mart premade computers so it's not that stupid in the end as no doubt those technically illiterate morans will just crank up graphics to the max then complain how the game crashes and runs like shit.
>>
>>146611323

Considering Sims 4 was originally meant to be a mobile game, it's a really solid guess that they don't give any sort of damn about the type of people who have decent computers. Or Consoles, even. We all know the types that play mainly mobile games.

LOL be thankful. And I am so serious. What they did was replace half the trees in the world with Growfruit. I spent 6 hours finding a god damn cherry and pear tree, because pretty much all had been turned into Growfruit trees.

The implementation was fucking terrible. Any tree that wasn't pre-laid as fully grown, was a growfruit tree. That is, any tree that started as a seedling in a fresh hood grew into a grow fruit. I eventually found the trees I needed in -- I can't remember the name. It is the haunted mansion in one of the expansion pack towns with an enormous garden and hedge maze behind it. There is a small greenhouse and a row of trees by it. It's the only place I could find cherries and pears.

God that pissed me off so much. I thought I was going to have to wait for a patch just to get a damn cherry to plant in my garden.

Find a lot/room with growfruit trees and the egg collection already on it online.

I personally have a room saved (all of my collections are saved as rooms, actually, to save time). I'm sure you can find a saved room with the tree and eggs that you can then add to your existing house.

A drive for purity and perfection. Maybe I decide I don't want to play with mods, or feel I am losing control over my game because mods are changing it too much.

Maybe I've having more crashes than I'd like and I worry my game is corrupt.

Maybe my game is starting to slow down - longer load times, saves, etc.

Maybe a new expansion came out and I want a clean slate to try out all these new toys.

Maybe I get a new idea for a beautiful "theme" neighborhood/paradise of all pretty white girls so I walk around systematically killing every one else in the neighborhood with townie spawning disabled.

Maybe I want to quest to conquer/woohoo all the women int he neighborhood and then paint portraits of them in their undies right after (I've actually done this) but I needed to reset all the relationships so I could easily keep count of who I banged.

There's all sorts of autistic reasons. We're a crazy bunch. Harmless, but still crazy.

Sims 4 is really not friendly to my play style since I can't save entire households + their houses. I'd like to be able to make a house/family *perfect* ... design the house, go room by room making the furniture and decorations perfect. Rugs, lamps, statues, plants, blinds, curtains,everything - by checklist. And once the house is immaculately style and the family all has every one of their outfits perfectly designed and fitted, with custom hair and eyes, etc, I want to *SAVE* it. Right there.

That way, when I start a new game the next day, I can simply import the entire house/family intact into my new neighborhood. Because that takes like 12 hours to make that.

But alas, Sims 4 won't let you. Unlike all the previous games. It's why I don't play it as much as I used to. With a game series prone to instability, I don't like risking hours of my work to a possible corrupt game save.

The family loses all their assets, including precious storage in fridges and chests like perfect vegetables, fresh fish, and that lifetime supply of Blackened Bass from when you were training cooking. The only way to restore it is through cheats. I want to say memories, skills, inner-family relationships, and LHRs are lost as well, but I can not say for certain. It's been a while since I tried. I just remember it being not at all worth the time because it shattered the household and family.

How do you guys build houses?

I tried to build one but I ended up with an empty entryway with too much space.

No living room.

But I got the bedrooms somewhat decent.

First time I've ever made something passable as a house. But the bit with the kitchen and entry way kinda fucked me up. I can post pics in a bit if someone feels like giving advice on what I could adjust I'd appreciate it.
>>
>>146670473
The one bedroom next to the bathroom was an office but we had a second kid and one aged up.

The office was an open space for a while until I closed it off and the hallway.

The bit to the left with the TV was kinda bolted on because I didn't know wtf to do.

I always seem to have a problem of making things too big and having wasted space. But if I go small I have no room for anything.

>>146671014
Build cabinets/counters as a like throw all area(you put your shoes, bookbags,mail etc) on the right side of the entry way to close it up a little
The chair in TV room needs to be closer to couch to be comfy.
Put some half walls instead of full walls either to separate kitchen and dining or in the TV room for an open feel.

As for the staircase you say you may need in the future, you have room in the hallway, unless you're planning to expand those rooms into it or put stuff in the hallway


Or if you aren't solid on having a front facing front door, you can move it to left side with a little porch and path and use the entry way as a sitting area.
>>
>>146677724
Build interior-up for comfy homes until you understand how much space you need for them.
Or do the 5x5, 4x4, then 3x3 challenges
They'll get you comfortable with knowing how close things can get together and still be functional.

I don't even care about the SJW element, the biggest problem I have with the Sims CC community on Tumblr is that they wouldn't know good web design if it bit them on the ass.

Where's the "next page" link? Why, it's right in the very topmost corner of the screen, conveniently colored the same exact shade of white as the background.

Because that's just real user-friendly.

This "flat" theme that's been going on for about 10 years now needs to be taken out back and shot. Windows 7 and IOS 6 (as examples) were the last good versions of those operating systems. The buttons, bars, and windows all had distinct borders and 3-D effects. They were very easy to see and tell apart from the background.

.... then this shit happens. Everything is now flat. No dimension. Like the Windows 8/10 start menu. There are no borders. Even the top where it meets the desktop, there is no border, just a color shift from the blue bar to the picture on the desktop.

iOS 7 was an ever more jarring change because we're talking about 5 inch screens that are hard enough to see as it is. It NEEDS those 3-d elements and definition. What a bunch of shit.

I bet in 10 years, these flat styles will be gone. Just like stainless steel appliances (because people are just no noticing how fucking hard they are to keep clean with kids/dogs), and "open concept" floor plans where thousands of square feet are waste by extra walkways and there's no where to hang a picture or pin awkward furniture against walls.

I remember there was a problem with bonehilda where she wouldn't leave pets the fuck alone.

I think there was a fix on MTS for that.

If the issue is similar to what bonehilda did there is probably a fix out there for the plumbots as well.

Tried out Sims 4 again. Snagged the Get Together and Diner things. Already have the other packs and "expansion".
Still doesn't really feel any different than the base game does. Just can't seem to enjoy it for long.

What's the most worthless and pointless skill in Sims 4
>>
>>146790937

The drag is that a high end PC doesn't help. Unlike most of the player base, I am a power gamer and my PC is setup to run today's most demanding games at 60fps. Sims 3 STILL took upwards of 2 minutes to load a game and 30 seconds to save and trying to run a ultra-speed with more than 1 sim in full autonomy ran about the same speed as normal fast forward. It's a mystery. Truly.

Awesome game though. It's the worth the trouble up until your game gets too big and you spend more time fixing it than playing it.

custom skins cause any children born to recieve any skintone between the two tones. that means if you have a sim with a normal maxis tone and a sim with a custom tone, it has a chance of using the green, grey, and blue because its between the two.

and/or the child recieved a custom skin that doesn't have any age state except adult so it shows up literal pitch black or blue.

>>
>>146812132
>>146811710

For a series with the only purpose (literally) of simulating human beings, their humans look like shit. Even in Sims 4. I mean, Sims 4 may look great in comparison to Sims 3, but when you put the characters up against the likes of some AAA titles from 5 years ago, they still look like cartoons. It's why there was a whole lot of disappointment back when The Sims 4 screenshots were getting leaked before release. It looked just like Sims 3 with better lighting effects. That is, 15 year old graphics.

But Sims 4 is really doing a great job. I think they are trying to keep a stylized approach instead of ultra-realism. And that approach looks really good for what it is. If they wanted it to get much better, they'd have to break out of the 'cartoon' mold and they'd lose 75% of paying customers because system requirements would skyrocket.

But I wish they just put in the OPTION for ultra high quality textures, at least the API for modders to make them like CBBE for Fallout 4

I don't care what 3 looked like, to be honest. It was a beautifully hashed-out life simulator. I believe it's often described as "over-ambitious", hence all the issues.

>It's a mystery.
Except for the part where it actually isn't. It's a game running on a single core.
You can waste all the money you want on a CPU with a trillion cores and threads and it is not going to make a difference.
>>
>>146819807

Clock speed is infinitely more valuable than number of cores, regardless of an application being designed to utilize multiple cores. Diminishing returns hit HARD after you pass 2 cores.

High core counts are for running multiple programs in parallel. And I do mean "running", as in actually processing information (like, 4 instances of WinRar compressing archives at once), not just lying dormant in the taskbar.

Sims 3 not utilizing multiple cores is really not the thing that is bogging it down. What is - that is the mystery. Bottom line is that it's not optimized worth shit and just looking at the folder structure will tell you as much without even having to open a file. Sims 4 is the same way.

That should be "optimized" ... whatever, it's too late to care too much.

>>146821743
And yes, this would work. You can tell how fast your game loads on a fresh install before expansions. But the point is it shouldn't have to be that way. They should have merged files together instead of having 20 different copies of the same file that the engine has to load and spot the differences between.

I hate on Sims 4. Alot. More out of disappointment than actual hate, because I really wish it was better since I love these games so much.

The game is coming into its own. Just moving a little slow compared to previous games. Like (as someone mentioned above) Dine Out should have really come with Get To Work. They are waaaaay too similar to be considered separate expansions. It's like taking Sims 3 World Adventures and making it into 3 expansions - France, Egypt, and China, for $20 each. That is basically what they did. And it probably won't be the last time.

Some of you guys gave me advice on how to improve my house yesterday and I really like it so far.

I finally had to add a second floor and I made use of the space in the hallway.

A couple things have changed since I took these earlier today. I added a bathroom upstairs and there is a rug in front of that book case now too.

Let me know what you guys think. Any advice on what I can improve is welcome.

Because the game is bad.
>>
>>146824914

It's a bit of a tedious process with games like this, which is why they don't always do them. There are multiple layers of security they have to find then jam. And jamming usually throws up red flags in other areas that they have to hunt down and jam, as well.

For a simple game without DRM, it's as easy as making a "wrapper" ... a file that puts a blanket around the main executable to stop it from looking for a CD, domain, or pinging back that the CD was found when it really wasn't. But when it comes to serious DRM, it gets a lot nastier. It will easily take 30x as long to crack an Origin or Steam game.

Don't be surprised if they don't bother making one for Dine Out or they wait until the next large patch or DLC so they can do them all at once. It is not worth their time to go through so much trouble for every patch or DLC.

At the end of the day, DRM is pointless. They have not made a DRM that can't be cracked and they never will. The more they challenge us by saying we can't break it, the more determined we are to do so.

Agreed. I've said for a while that I would not be surprised if they use the destination world concept from Outdoor Retreat again in another pack. Maybe a Seasons pack with beaches and ski resorts... or something. Or an Apartments pack.
Something with Rental lots.

>>146823820

The big issue I personally have is that none of the expansions feel like anything more than just extra content using already-existing code.

For instance, the first expansion. The game already had the timed checklist system, used for weddings, dates, and parties. They just added it for some new jobs as well.

Get Together basically uses service sim code and adds next to nothing beyond some little group choices.

Dine Out just uses a modified version of the Retail Store code.

I don't have a problem with these as they are, it fleshes out existing content. But they don't feel like they "expand" the game much. Everything feels like the same, but slightly different.

Unironically, Unity is probably a good contender for this thanks to the very easy and efficient collision approach.
If you know some C++ you should probably still switch to UE for AI coding and it's 64bit abilities that Unity for some reason still doesn't have.

CryEngine is always the weird one out. For some reason it is always on my list of engines to switch to but I never find the time to explore it in depth. Could be worth it if only for the terrain abilities prebuilt into the engine, I've seen some out of this world shit being made with it.

>UE for AI coding
Googled a bit and I suppose you're talking about behavior trees.
I've only ever worked with Unity and haven't made anything meaningful.

What would even be a good AI for a Sims game? More reactive to environment, probably. I'd really like to see Sims shaping up their personality based on things that have happened to them instead of either having it randomly chosen or being able to pick.

I've thought about the open world a bit as well and don't see how could you approach it. You have to dynamically load everything and it can't really be done any other way than in Sims 3 if you give player a freedom to pan around like a maniac. At least in normal open world games players are limited by speed of their character.
>>
>>146833707
I don't think either of those simmers even post here anymore.
>>
>>146846156
>>146845182
But then on the topic of open world, how good would it be to generate single big mesh from player made houses and display that on greater distances? This would exclude objects put inside. Problem would be objects put outside, but they can have lower LOD equivalents already made so replacing that should be quick. I don't know how much toll would it take on getting outside of buildmode/buymode if that had to be done every single time, maybe it's not a good idea at all.
Sims 3 had two types of objects visible on unloaded lots, buildmode objects which would be very low quality and things like rabbitholes which were always displayed the same. So rabbitholes weren't that bad when it came to general looks of the town. All other building looked horrendous when they weren't loaded, and limit to load everything was very low. Understandably, too many objects inside.

I mean, I clearly know very little about everything, but I thought I'd write an essay anyway.
>>
>>146846156
>Behavior Trees
Yep. The nice thing about UE4 is that those behavior trees are very easy to use even without any in-depth C++ knowledge (Which I do not have). A Good AI for a life simulator needs to be able to deal with multiple actors interacting between themselves and with their surroundings all the time. Rabbithole homes make this a bit easier since you can just give them need updates without actually interacting (unplayed Sims needs will stabilize in any Sims game, no matter the presence of a toilet, shower, bed or whatever in their home or anywhere)

I once had a look at a guy that attempted to make a working Black&White clone in UE4 and it was quite impressive what he managed to do AI-wise with just Blueprints and Behavior Trees. Behavioral changes through memories is not that tough to achieve in UE4, which is something you seem to want.

Open world is not that tough in my opinion. I always found the way the Sims deal with this a bit clumsy. I think it would be easier to just have a map set up and allow players to drag out the area they wish to purchase / play in themselves. This would allow for a more RTS-like map setup and if you want even some far superior terraforming over the sims. It would also allow you to add "playing space" to your home dynamically.

>>146846753
Rabbitholing inactive lots should be quite easy to set up. They don't even need to be Rabbitholes, just do some Dynamic LOD adjustment which UE4 does quite well out of the box. Only problem would be the lightmeshes, but maybe someone could attempt to make those dynamic too.

>>
>>146846941
I mean lightmaps.
>>
>>146846941
>It would also allow you to add "playing space" to your home dynamically.
That would be nice.

I guess I'll try out UE4 a bit in that case, see if I can do anything with it at all. Haven't touched C++ in over a year and I don't have much experience in general, just college stuff mostly. Then we can get together, create a development team where you'll do the work and we'll make the logo. Surely there has to be more people on /tsg/ capable of contributing something.

Would be great to have a sims clone game catered to our wishes.

Sure, why not.

What I really like about UE4 is how darn useful the Material instances are. Look them up, they are pretty much made to allow customisation like in the Sims 3 with the added benefit of transparency and reflections being more or less intrinsic to them. It would be quite easy to make item degradation a thing like wood flooring aging over time or having mildew on the walls. I don't know if anyone would want that but it makes me all giddy.

I've always wanted to get back into Sims, but I've honestly always wasted so much time trying to pick which one to play that I've never really been able to do it. 2 had so much charm and some good content but is a bit more restrictive compared to the modern ones. 3 has the most content and features, and whether you liked it or not, the open world allowed you to get into so many antics and to get immersed. 4 has promise I guess, but it feels as shallow as a Facebook game.

Does anyone feel the same, or am I just secretly autistic?
>>
>>146851739
despite 3's shortcomings its by far the best and most complete game of the bunch. no matter what they do with 4's expansions, it'll never be open world.

SimCity 3k I think.

Pic not related, I just wanted to show off another house I finished. A bit dinkier than the victorian mansion I showed before. It's based on some farmhouse I found on google.

The Sims.

>>146853276
Same. SC3k was next, skipped TS2, SC4, TS3 then TS4.
>>
>>146852929
I like it. Do you only build, or do you also move families in and play with them? I'd love to see some screenshots of that.
>>
>>146840242

That custom clothing is awful. Why does sims 4 CC clothing look so much less refined than Sims 3 stuff? Did we lose all our good Sims 3 modders or did they just never move onto Sims 4?
>>
Why do some people like sims 2 over 3? Never played 2, is it just performance?

clothing mods arent anywhere near refined in 3 either m8, it's just that turning some sims into freaky clowns or such doesnt make them seem out of place as 3 has this "second-life" shit going on but in 4 they have this clear 1 style they make the game look like.
>>
>>146854658
I do both. Pic related is bedroom in that house.

>>146857374
Performance is a big one. I have a pretty good PC but Sims 3 still doesn't run terribly well - fast forward feels like it's running through porridge.

Some other stuff I like about 2:

Businesses are better than any other entry in the series.
2 has an actual genetics system with dominant and recessive traits, unlike 3 which just blends everything together. This makes it much better for legacy style play.
The Sims themselves look a lot better. Maybe some people will disagree but I think they tried to go too realistic in 3 but it didn't really work out.

Personally I think TS4 looks great and I might move in the future when it actually has stuff to do. I'm a big fan of "weird" stuff like magic, vampires and sci-fi shit so hopefully it gets that sorta thing soon.
>>
>>146858297
>Businesses are better than any other entry in the series.
This reminds me that it was real fucking neato how you could actually run a store from INSIDE of your OWN fucking HOUSE!

Main reason i havent gotten much into 4 and it's get dubs work expac either is because i cant run it at my home lot so it'l just be sending sims to work in the morning through loading screen and then coming back home late at night through another loading screen which sucks no matter how fast it loads.
>>
>>146859008
Just build a house at the store lot and never go 'home'
>>
>>146859150
Yeah sure that's an option but i dont know... it just doesnt feel right.
>>
>>146859150
Also doesnt Dine Out have the problem with not being able to send your employees home or was it just not being able to let them take a break?

I can see how that could fuck up any try to make small nice restaurant serving traditional food and you living in the upper floor.
>>
>>146856996
TSR photo skinning has always been a thing m8

>>146849428
SC 3k

Then the sim theme park and coaster games.

Then The Sims stole my heart.

I actually bought SC4 last year and enjoy it quite a bit.

It's dated af but still feel fun and fresh somehow.
>>
>>146851485
That looks neat as fuck

>>146851739
>>146851910
The open world was empty and dead as fuck.

I don't understand why people keep jacking off to it.
>>
>>146856996
That's probably because TS3 is more realistic (like sims etc.) while TS4 is more cartoonish , i guess?
>>
>>146859513
Yeah, they can't take breaks.

People are asking for shifts.
>>
>>
Why don't the Ayy Lmaos disguise themselves?

They don't disguise themselves then get embarassed because people saw through their "disguise".

kek
>>
>>146860441
open world was the next logical step for the sims. its nice seeing other people besides who youre playing actually doing things, going places.
>>
>>146861151
TS2 I'd see people places when I went out.

There were also more people visiting those lots.

Same in TS4

Fuck, even TS1.

The open world felt empty as fuck because I'd go somewhere and nobody would even be there until about an hour or so after I showed up.
>>
Sliding doors when
I want ones that slide up/down too for sci fi ships
>>
>>146861294
>when i went out

exactly. its fine when you're out. but when you're at home you never see anyone except the occasional jogger or someone walking past. with 3 i can zoom in on any spot of the map and find people doing stuff, going places. easily +10 comfy.

>>146861510
My autism would require me to put a wall over every single one of these and not put a door there.

Autosaging.
>>
>>146861556
Why would I look on the map when I'm not going there?
>>
>>146861774
On the floor above the door?
That would depend if the door slides up by folding sections like pulling up blinds, or is a solid slab.

Same for sliding doors that go to the side. Would be nice to have singles for houses and doubles for stores. Glass doors you can see outside of glass windows, wooden doors that go into a wall, etc.
>>
>>146861954
because its nice seeing other things go on in the world. it feels much more alive compared to the others. anything less feels like a downgrade. but if you don't care, keep playing 2 or 4. don't let my fun stop you from having fun.
>>
>>146862478
I guess it can be yeah.

I spend too much time looking at my sims though. kek

Open world was kinda fun.
But

>rabbit holes
>lag

meh

I don't mind the loading screens one bit desu they're insanely short.
>>
>>146863079
rabbit holes are indeed pretty awful

anyone making a new thread?

>>146863343
Idk what to put in the OP or I would. kek
>>
>>146860682
How long and hard would it be for someone's who never done CC to do CC?

All these S4 outfits are ass and or recolors and it just looks like those tacky printed on shirts that look like they have texture to it or something. Plus all these ads are annoying as fuck and these ass kissers are stroking egos that don't need to be stroked

Are there any recommended mods or anything that I should get for TS4? I've just downloaded it and not played yet.
