Reduce CC Without Deleting!

TUTORIAL OVER MAKING CUSTOM SIMS 3 PAINTINGS:

Okay y’all, here’s my first tutorial. I broke it down barney style for those who have never worked with the programs before, so forgive me if you’re more advanced. I wanted anyone to be able to follow this. [Forgive my background noise, I have a sensitive mike and a 4 year old who doesn’t understand the meaning of quiet yet lol]

If you have any questions - See that I missed a step - or can think of a better way to improve the process, PLEASE let me know! I hope this helps.

Around the Sims | Advent calendar 2019

If you chatted with me not so long ago, I had probably told that I wouldn’t do an Advent calendar this year. Too much stress in RL, not enough time, too much work, not enough support, too much this, not enough that… So, instead, it was supposed to be a “12 days before Christmas”. But then, I thought to people who might expect that advent calendar, who might come to my site the 1st of December, hoping finding something and who would be disappointed… It broke my heart! So, I changed my mind, and you’ll get a complete Advent calendar, just as usual, even if it means I won’t sleep before a while!  :D The “idea” of the year was to re-do what I had done for my very first Advent calendar, for Sims 2, about 10 years ago (yeah, I know, do you hear my bones cracking?), with “hidden” gifts: you see the gift wrapping and you have a hint about what’s inside, but you don’t see immediately what you download. But you still can get a preview if you like better knowing! Anyway, you download the gift wrapping and the mystery gift. :)

You’ll find tiny gifts or much bigger ones, depending if they were planned or not (or if I slept or not! ;))

Starting on YOUR 1st of December!

Reminder: New objects to download every day from the 1st to the 24th of December.They’re available for 24 hours only, but don’t worry if you missed one, all the objects will be available again from the 25th of December! ;)

Gifts will be the same for Sims 3 and Sims 4 (with eventually different functions, though). Around the Sims 3 Around the Sims 4

(and don’t forget you can support the sites, so I know you enjoy the Advent calendar! ;D)

PS: I post this on the 29th of November, so there’s nothing yet to see on the sites. It’s just to be sure you’ll be ready! ;)

SOOOOOOOOOOOO TRUE!

Creators who switch from Sims 3 to Sims 4...

That’s all good and more power to ya…but…WHY DO YOU DELETE ALL YOUR SIMS 3 DOWNLOADS?!?!?! PEOPLE STILL WANT/NEED THEM!!!!!!!

Hey guys! Long time, no see! How’re you? I hope you all are fine!

I took a break a couple of months ago, since I changed a bit. I was in a writer vibe, and sims wasn’t even being one of my hobbies for awhile, so I stopped everything related to it. But now, I’m thinking to come back and I wanted to do this contest, since I’m also going to start posting stories in English too in my Wattpad! Write is a good hobby for me, I found myself on it, and soon I will be posting my 1st original story on Wattpad! I’m hosting it not only for followers or anything, but I want to own a new public for new stories I will be posting soon! So, I would love if you all can enter on it!

The contest!

It’s a contest with 5+ items + 15 poses! The amount of winners will be by the number of followers: for every 10 followers (here and in Wattpad) it will be one winner. 

The prizes! 15 poses - 5 couple, 5 family, 5 randomly. Two Strollers: Stokke Xplory + Mima Xari (both full version w/ bassinet and seat!) (Preview: x, x) Unicorn party set. (Preview: x, x, x) Monte Design Ninna-Nanna  (Preview x) 4Moms Mamaroo. (Preview x)

How to enter! You must be following my tumblr account and my wattpad account. Reblog this post! (+1 chance to winner for every reblog, but the max. is 3 reblogs per account).

Other informations: No giveaway blogs, pls! Sims 4 accounts can participate, specially if you know how to convert from S3 to S4 (if not, we can talk and see a solution!) The constest ends at November 20, so I can have time to set everything. Any other information, feel free to contact me via inbox.

Good luck for everyone!!! <3

Some of our gameplay tips and tricks

Hey! We’re going to share with you some of our sims 3 gameplay tips:

1. Always save games while in “Map View”. Each time I save the game i always make sure to press M and save my game from the Map View. I can’t remember exactly where i found this or who suggested it to me but it has REALLY helped me with the game saving. Or maybe it’s just an illusion, either way it worked smoothly ever since. ( @simplyimaginarypeople :  saving in Map view uses less RAM and sometimes prevents Error 12) 

2. Always save games with “Save As”. Whenever it prompts the “Already existing town” just make sure you hit “replace”. Just like above, I can’t remember why or how but somehow it helped me avoid issues, endless loading screens and processing.

3. Make sure you always backup your game. And not only! Keep a backup of everything:  CC, sims, files,pictures,library, videos everything you want to keep safe. Not sure what a backup is? Click here or here 

4. Make sure you clean Cache files each time before you go in game. Not going in depth here on how or why, instead click this link , link 2 and if you have a Mac click here 

5. Never keep Screenshots/ Videos in the documents folder. It will just slows down the game. Always move them somewhere safe.

6. Make sure your sims’ inventories are as clean as possible. Keeping too many items in the inventory can lead to some ugly bugs.

7. Suggested by @simplyimaginarypeople “Turn off memories in game. They pile up the Cache files and never delete properly even if you delete memories.

8. Use Nraas Master controller when your game is acting weird. Head over to the City Hall click Nraas Master controller and fiddle around with the settings: Reset Everything is the best option when your town is buggy. Another option would be to use Nraas Master Controller on a specific Lot to use Reset Lot, it does the same thing but resets one single lot. Always use the cheat “Resetsim *” to reset all the sims in the town. And cheat “resetsim SimFirstName SimLastName” to reset a certain sim that got stuck. 

These are some of the tips that always helped me with my gameplay and i hope people will take note of them too from now on. Again, i can’t guarantee it will always work for you but you can always give them a try.
