THE HORROR: The REAL TS3 Scoop As It Unfolds

The way they move is awful. Jerky, weird, ugh. This is definitely been another minimum effort from EA.
It seems that there are two different "walk" animations: one of them is a power walk, which is ugly, blocky, and hideous. This is likely the one you're talking about.
The other walk is a normal walk, and it looks nice and *human*. Sadly, it seems that sims will rarely do this one except for short distances (i.e. walking to a bookshelf in the same room).
If we can find some way to put in a mod that eliminates that power walk, I'm all for it. I don't care that the normal walk is slower, at least it isn't an eyesore.

Well I'm just wondering, maybe all these bugs, like the speed problem, the graphic glitches, etc. are caused by the crack you're all using. I don't mean the stuff you buy on the street. :) The crack that comes with the torrent download is probably suspect and that's why you're all experiencing these bugs in the game.
I remember the missing build mode in the crack for Sims 2 when it first appeared on torrent.

Question for people who have installed:
How many gigs of free space are required to install the game? I finally got the rar downloaded and unrared it, but copying the "disc" contents in order to circumvent the spyware wrapper resulted in a "Oops, you're out of disc space!" message. I wound up moving the iso onto my external drive and deleting all TS3-related stuff from my main drive. Is 5-6 gigs enough? If not, I might have to rearrange some more stuff, or install on my external drive. Why the heck do games have to be so huge anyway? I have an incredibe game installed on this computer that takes up a wopping 700 MB of disc space.
It is partially my fault for partitioning my disc two or three ways, but I need my linux, and 70 GB should have been enough, dammit.
ETA: So, I'm 700 MB short. Fuck it, I'll just put it on my external drive. It doesn't sound like I'll be keeping it long anyway.
blackcat:
Main folder takes 5.59 GB. And save games and crap folder that's in My documents takes about 700-900 Mb. I also suspect that there are hidden folders with temp cache like in Spore, and god knows how much space they might take.
Edit: It seems as cache file is in saves folder for everyone to see. At least I didn't find anything hidden away.
ETA:
I am confused.
I tried to move my family to another home. I used a computer, checked “pack furniture” option, and then I had to choose a house to move in, but I can’t buy it unfurnished.
I also tried to evict them and then to move in (through “edit town”), but I can’t pack furniture :(
Also I can’t figure out how available funds are calculated:
A: House unfurnished: 12782; number from buy mode
B: House furnished: 17402; number from buy mode
C: Free cash: 7649
D: House value: 16759; number from moving out menu
Available funds to buy a new home with furniture packed: 17349 (A+C = 20431. 3000$ difference!!)
Available funds to buy a new home: 24408 (B+C= 25051; D+C= 24408)
Numbers just don’t add up ???
Maybe I don’t get paid for bushes and trees? Maybe the numbers from buy mode are without depreciation? I have no idea.
Still it seems impossible to move out with packed furniture and to move into an empty house, unless you pack furniture manually OR empty the destined house manually.

Cool, my sim started a fire on the stove and it burnt the counter next to it too! Way more realistic.
Lucky! I haven't even SEEN a fire yet.
Has anyone gotten triplets yet? ;)

Yeah, why aren't there any instruments that kids can play? This is not acceptable!

Why does my current family have to have a sim with the want for five of them?
Five? mine wants 10! And he's not even a Fambly sim!
