I think all newer EA games put their files and saves into Electronic Arts rather than EA Games.  I seem to recall NFSU2 put its saves in EA Games, but NFS Carbon and whatever the new one that just came out is called, put their saves into Electronic Arts.  The Sims Stories also put their saves into Electronic Arts.


Well, I just wished they could let you change the directory, for both the installation AND the saves.

I've actually found the opposite to be true.  For me, scrolling is smoother, anything having to do with graphics feels faster than TS2.  I'm using a clocked nVidia 9800GT's at 1920x1200 with all settings maxed except building detail which I left at its default of 4.  What graphics hardware are you using?


Using a Nvida GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 at 1024x768.  The card is apparently so bad that I had to edit the Graphics Rules files back for TS2 Seasons to force it to run at that resolution; it insisted on 800x600.

If your Sim has already fulfilled their LTW, the option to change their LTW in the rewards panel disappears and they can't get a new one.


bogus, I'd planned on going through more than one.

Ah, yeah, that explains it.  I think once your video hardware surpasses a certain point, TS3 can take advantage of it and actually seem quicker than TS2.
I tried TS3 on my Hackintosh with GMA950 onboard graphics at 1280x800 resolution and it was ridiculously slow and completely unplayable.

Thanks, now I know it's not just me. :)  It would seem that's a somewhat serious problem.  I don't even put blush on the female sims I've added because it looks horrible and creepy in game (always looks fine in CAS).  Lipstick is iffy.  I also noticed their eyes turn dark black and looks creepy.  It seems they still need to tweak the contrast or shading a bit.

I like that sims can carry around apples and other stuff in their pockets and then nosh on them when needed. Works out great for my "homeless" sim who found a seed and planted a tree. All she eats is apples, poor skinny thang.

I haven't seen ghosts outside of the graveyard yet. It's kind of funny that yours come to haunt by car. ;) Maybe it's because they're rich. LOL

It would be REALLY nice if toddlers could escape the crib on their own. :P
Curfew is DUMB. Especially when I want to take my goth kids to the graveyard at night. :P

I had an adopted fat kid that I trained to become lean and muscular, then I gave him the fast metabolism perk.  It actually quickened the reversal to fatness.  If you read the description for that perk it says that it quickens the process of weight change, and that goes both ways.
That is not how it should work. :P

Boyfriends/Girlfriends that like you enough to stay over should be able to sleep in the same bed as you. :P

I finally got around to making myself over the weekend. I think it's pretty close...


love the cheeseburger t-shirt. My fave food is also cheeseburgers. xD Boobs aren't big enough, though. I wish there were separate sliders for top and bottom body.

(is anyone else having a problem with maty today?)
