A Sims 4 Players Guide To The Sims 3 By Simmearly

I am putting this together based on my own gameplay experiences and expectations, so some of this is purely my opinion.

I recently decided that with my new PC I would re-install The Sims 3, and All EPs, to see how it ran and play around with the features I miss in TS4,

I followed this guide on steam to set the game up to run smoothly.

To paraphrase just a little, this includes a TON of information, but basically, it shows you how to replace the launcher, and run the game on modern machines without issues.

Gameplay would not be possible for longer than an in-game week or so without the fantastic NRAAS & Lazy Duchess Mods.

I Use, Nraas Overwatch, Master Controller, Register, Error Trap & Traveller, which is my personal favorite, as it allows you to travel to more worlds for vacations, and own vacation homes in them etc. It also allows for you to move to a new town and retain relationships from the other town(s) you've lived in.

I recommend good default skin and eye replacements, as well as default replacements for Eyebrows and Beards, I Recommend Checking out @brntwaffles on Tumblr, as they have these as well as lighting mods to brighten up the in-game lighting and water!

Gameplay Mods,

I really enjoy TS3 Vanilla gameplay, so this list is short (For Now) however I do want to expand upon it, the Growing Pains Mod - adds a lot to the child stage and I feel like it integrates so well with Vanilla that it could have been in the game from the start.

Smaller Quality of Life mods,

Nectar Glass Replacements

Sim Drinks - Adds Buffs For Bar Drinks

Shop For Clothes at Clothing Rack, TS2 Style

That's it For Now, I will probably update this post as my Legacy continues, I am currently on Gen 4, and am having a BLAST!

Also - I do own quite a bit of the Store content and I have found myself using it more than expected, I bought a lot of it years ago, and I failed to realize then just how much gameplay is involved,

The Steam it up sauna is currently my favorite object due to its regenerative properties, but the Business-as-Usual industrial Oven, placed on your home lot allows for you to basically have a private chef! (Don't pay full price for any store content, wait for a sale or find it on other avenues) ;)

Thank you to all the amazing creators mentioned, none of this would be possible without YOU!

Edit - TIP! Reset your town using Nraas every few sim weeks to keep things running smoothly

It's crazy how 6 different packs and add ons of The Sims 4 made a whole The Sims 3 dlc...

Read @ tags!

And it isn't as good cause they're all separated and do don't interact with each other well.

And one is so broken you can't even use it!

Anyway play the Sims 2 or 3 instead of 4: either one is a far superior experience and also not 1000$.

It was late into the night and Renee was back at the station. She needed to find the problem with Vincent's phone and why his messages didn't send. Renee relayed all the information Vincent told her and he emphasised using the hospital wifi. They figured his phone was hacked this way and someone was spying on him, preventing him from making calls or messages. With the cyber security knowledge of Captain Vazquez, they tracked the IP address of the device used to intercept Vincent's phone. And the location was Strangerville.

Now Renee had all sorts of thoughts in her head. Despite it being late at night, she found the whole process fascinating. And all the links to Strangerville. The police may be the only way to uncover more about the place and find out what the hell is going on there. Perhaps she should switch from her history course to criminology and become a detective. Yes, she will do that. Renee doesn't like history as much as she did anyway and she liked the idea of solving crimes.

Grace: This was an amazing idea, Em!

Emilia: [whoops giddily] I feel so alive!

Tomax: Last one to the Gardens takes cauldron cleaning duty!

Emilia: No way! You’ve got an unfair advantage.

Tomax: Guess you should’ve thought of that when you wasted your money on that cutesy little twig you’re riding!

Caleb: I can’t believe you’re going along with this.

Morgyn: Oh, we’ll be fine.

Caleb: The little one isn’t even using her hands!

Morgyn: The magic does most of the steering anyway. What, afraid we’ll go plummeting into the endless abyss?

Caleb: Yes!

-

Grace: Oh my god, they are literally too adorable!

Tomax: Would you look at that? Dracula knows how to bust a move.

Morgyn: The children are watching us.

Caleb: Let them.

Morgyn: Oh, that potion must have been good. I’ve never seen this uninhibited side of you.

Caleb: Do you like it?

Morgyn: I love it.

-

Grace: Get over here, Caleb! We can’t commemorate the night without you.

Caleb: No, no. I’m afraid I’d ruin the shot.

Morgyn: Don’t resist, darling! We’re not taking no for an answer.

Caleb: You know I won’t show up in the photo, right?

Morgyn: Shh. It’s about the memories.
