There's bathing? Medieval sims don't have a hygiene motive...

I may be wrong but I think it's a hidden motive that is triggered with only certain actions or conditions, My blacksmith gets the green stinky cloud after a couple of smithing. But swordplays or kingball does not seem to trigger it.

What I noticed with high free will on, NPCs in the castle autonomously bathe on the bathtub, anywhere else no one uses it. But my stinky blacksmith sim prefers to use the chamber pot instead of the tub when left autonomously.

I don't know if anybody noticed that female sims pee at the chamber pot standing up the way males do it.

In fact, bathing and peeing are just a way to have more moodlets. Nothing more. The whole game is about that, most part of the time. Higher is the concentration, higher are the chances to be successful.

The sims can be smelly, yet that give a negative moodlet. As for peeing doesn't make your sim peeing on the floor anymore, you'll get just a negative moodlet again.

I thought maybe I can live with that. But then it turned out the only quest available is to abandon the kingdom you've spent so much time building. The "new" kingdom is exactly like the old one, except all the buildings you've spent so much time erecting are demolished (and along with them any stuff you bought), and you only get to carry over one sim. What the—?! I tried, but I couldn't put up with it. The monarch having to go through the same rigmarole with identical responsabilities was too much.

WizardDani's method to recycle the kingdom seems to work for me.  Only issue is you can't use a save game where you've exhausted your quest points.  I have no idea what it will do if the ambition involves things that were already accomplished.  My guess is you'll just never be able to complete that ambition.

If it weren't for that trick, I would already be very bored with the game.

Apparently it's my graphics card. A recently purchased ATI Radeon HD 5770.

As a mac-using peasant I have limited choices in graphics cards. I bought this one because my older card an ATI Radeon X1900XT couldn't handle Sims 3 without some very nasty glitching.

I give up! Anyone who wants a copy of Sims Medieval (Limited Edition) apply here. I'll even pay the postage.

It's probably because they don't actually have bladders, so they don't know when to stop. But then, this is game where the only gameplay is questing and you control that one specific hero sim, so why would you leave them alone?

The thing is, with blacksmiths you can't queue up a bunch of other things because they cancel out the smithing. You have to wait for them to finish first. And literally, it takes them less than a second after finishing the work to queue up something stupid, like peeing when they don't have a bladder motive.

But peeing gives them a positive moodlet, which gives them more focus, which is a net gain on how well they're doing on the quest.

So you're complaining...that they automatically keep themselves...happy? If that is somehow an issue, turn free will off, because I hate to break it to you but the whole point of free will is to let sims take care of themselves a little bit.

I don't know whether I should be relieved  in finding that I'm not the only one with graphic driver crash issues, or annoyed that this is not just my device being incompetent. The Sims 3 never gave me any trouble (In this direction, anyways. Still problematic overall). This just renews my vow never to spend a dime on EAxis ever again.

Don't bother spending the £30.00 if you have a mac.

I have a MacPro which is well over the minimum technical game specifications for Sims Medieval but the game crashes with monotonous regularity and is unplayable.

Thirty quid down the shitter then. Not that I should be remotely surprised.


It's probably you, the game runs perfect on my MacBook Pro. I also have the debug installed from MTS and some of the other package files. Sooo, it must be you.

I have the quest "A Political Marriage" to do in order to make an ally out of Elfstonian (spelling?), however my monarch is already married, anyone know if any other quests will pop up for them to become my allies? I really don't want to have to absolve my monarch's marriage to her knight.
Sorry if this was already answered: according to Prima (yes, I purchased the game AND the guide and I'm not sorry! lol) - Quest: A Political Marriage.  The 2 approaches are Seduce and Outmaneuver.  Requirements for Seduce are an UNmarried Monarch, Knight, or Spy.  Requirements for Outmaneuver are UNmarried Monarch or Spy.  This is the quest that allies your kingdom with Effenmont.

Naw the primary hero is a Monarch, and secondary is a spy or some others, so it's undoable if you already married your monarch off. Looks like I'm ganna have to divorce him and then remarry. Yay for testingcheats.

Peeing does not give any extra moodlets. It does Nothing, other than waste time. I have checked this. Washing gives moodlets, but not peeing.

Actually, it does. You just don't get one every single time a sim pees. Waiting 13 hours after his first pee, and having a meal, my sim used the chamberpot and got this moodlet.

The game died on me pretty fast now, it was good at first, I finally got my kingdom where I wanted it. And hey I unlocked the next part! What's this? I have to start ALL OVER AGAIN?! On the same map? With the same damn quests? And the same damn buildings? Yeah...it's dead to me now.
You could start a "free-play" kingdom.

1. Start new game on any ambition
2. Cheat maximum RP and buy all the buildings
3. Create all your heroes
4. Use "ShowAllQuests" and choose the Free Play quest
5. Do whatever the hell you want. Level up your heroes, make money, make relationships, etc.

If you choose Free Play after completing the ambition, EXP and responsibilities are disabled, so I prefer this way.

I tried this and got:
Unknown command: showallquests

Alright, I figured it out. It's worth explaining for the next idiot:

To use "ShowAllQuests" you need to enable debug mode. Follow these directions: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/5516778.page

Then you can "Cheat maximum RP" by using setkp 1000 (or whatever number you want, 1000 is enough).

Bad code, but thanks fo your efforts.

Both of those codes work fine. I've applied them 2 separate times and they worked both times.

Oh and if some were looking for some other code that supposedly unlocked 10 additional outfits, there was a PR fuck up and those people who paid for the Collector's Edition didn't get their extra goodies.

I have an ATI Radeon HD 4800 that was crashing in Medieval, I went to the ATI page and discovered they had updated their driver for my card on March 27, 2011. I applied the update and now I no longer crash. Try updating your driver, it may help. Sorry the game doesn't work for you, after World Adventures came out and broke my game, I vowed NEVER to buy another EA game again. Always try before you buy.

I got my patch off TPB, no problems. HOWEVER, once I installed it, patching took away the ability to open the options menu, as I believe has been well-documented here.
