Mine always stop working after a couple weeks, as well.


So the question is...is this by design or a bug?

I vote bug, knowing who made the game :P  And also because the price remains the same.  If they were intended to stop working, shouldn't the price drastically reduce as well?

Annoying bug with a wedding party. Possibly even fatal if it is reproducible (I will try to reproduce it tonight).

My sim had a wedding party to marry an NPC (a magician) at the beach. During the exchange of the rings everybody swarmed to cheer and a number of guests (5 or 6) got STUCK throwing rice (interaction: react to the wedding, Dad was doing the same but thanks God snapped out of it). 24 hrs later they were still there stuck (and throwing rice  ;D ). One of them is required to finish an opportunity and the other is the groom's boss. I am not happy to let those two die just yet.  (Former magician can phone the boss and sucking up at work increases relationship score, but the boss  does not turn up if invited).
I'll see if they do die and then try to reload and marry again at the beach.

For some stupid reason "testingcheatsenabled true" does not work for me (the command is accepted but no new options appear on the mailbox).



This happened to me too... My sim got married and had a wedding party and one of the swimming pools, one of the invited sims started throwing rice, and continued to do so for hours after, everyone left the parrty but he was still there, throwing rice...

I have no idea what made him stop, but he just did and went home and said he had a great time :D. Easily pleased.

I keep seeing people talking about stonehenge. Where on the map is that located?

Magical gnomes?




Stonehenge is above and to the left of the cemetary, just across from Pinochle Pond.  And magical gnomes can be acquired by your Sims when they masquerade as bits of metal or gems (you have to send it away to be smelted or cut to get them back as gnomes) or through the criminal career somehow, I think (not sure how, I just heard that from Nec).


While being at work as a criminal, there's a chance you get a pop up telling you that you have snatch something extra and you can find it in the family inventory. Could be a gnome, an obelisk vine, one of some specific types of painting, a statue (the 1,6k or the 12k one), or a combination of those.

And! I hate that they do not announce that you're having multiples! Like when they go to the hospital for the Dr. consultation they could have a popup saying it went well and you're having twins, or triplets! Or they could at least bother to tell you when you deliver! So you can cordinate names. I know thats been said before, but I still hate it, lol! They should bring back TS2 way of a pop up with "Baby Boy" or "Baby Girl" if you have twins, it is 1 box with both babies name boxes. It would be so much easier, but of course EA can't have us being happy or having things easily handed to us!


Is that not what the town hall is for?


It's possible that mandababy is like me and doesn't like renaming a Sim once the name has been given. 

I'm not sure why, but I'd no sooner rename a Sim than I would a real-life child or a pet.  It just feels wrong to me, though I know there's no logical reason it should :-)  I remember in one iteration of Strangetown I had a Sim named Adam Curious (son of Pascal Curious) who grew up to look a lot like a wrestler named Samoa Joe.  I always referred to him as Samoa Joe, but I couldn't bring myself to do away with his given name, so I eventually changed it (with SimPE) to Adam "Samoa Joe" Curious.

I know, I'm a nerd ;-)

Quote from another forum-

Just a heads-up for those planning to buy from EB Games in case they don't like Sims 3, to take advantage of their 7 day return policy (like me), EB Games are NOT offering their 7 day return policy for The Sims 3.

I tried to pre-order the Collectors Edition at my local store today, and was told that there was no return on the game because it had on-line activation.

I pointed out that EA have very publicly and very specifically stated that there is no on-line activation for the Sims 3, and I just got a shrug and an "I'm just doing what I'm told" as a response.

To the assistance credit, she did check with her manager first, but they are adement that there is no 7 days return for this game.


I work for GameStop and we've never returned new games. Ever. Once you open it, it's yours unless it's defective and you want another copy. PC stuff is especially unreturnable because of cd keys and the like.


lol, I knew I wasn't crazy
