  • Contacted Square Enix support for constant network warnings and lag.
    Once you have exhausted all the other troubleshooting options, then you can try rebuilding the database on your system. To see instructions of how to rebuild database on the PS5 system visit the PlayStation official web site at: https://playstation.com/en-us/ before turning off. Source: almost 3 years ago

  • Is there anyone that know where is this hair cc from?
    I took this photo from the thesims3.com where you can choose a profile photo but I couldnt find this hair. So anyone here know that one? Source: 10 months ago
  • Having trouble with modding Sims 3 on new EA App.
    Hidden Springs you will need to download from thesims3.com store. It won't be under EA App. Source: 11 months ago
  • Some TS3 badge challenges are... something out of the ordinary. Twilight inspired???
    They're badges (challenges/achievements, basically). Go to thesims3.com, make an account/login, go to My Page, then My Badges - there you are! They're fun :). Source: over 1 year ago
  • So, I noticed that store content doesn't load through EA Desktop, so I decided to see if I could get any help with this. The support advisor I got was very nice and helpful, but sadly is looks like when Origin is shut down, I won't be able to use store content, including worlds, despite having disc.
    I read most of the comments here and only Origin users will be forced to EA App and..the store contents may not downloadable? Because currently, I'm not using Origin to play the sims 3. My game is installed by DVDs all. So it's likely the patch version 1.67 would be safe with the store contents, right? I can install all store contents from thesims3.com without origin.

  • Why is it so hard
    You don't need the Origin to send any online gift but you should be the registered member of thesims3.com I can still send any online present even though my game is installed by DVDs, but usually play offline for the better game performance. Source: over 1 year ago
