Simmers of Old! We need you!

Maxis has announced that the official Sims forums are moving — the forums we've been using for most of Sims 3 and all of Sims 4 years. It seems like Maxis has had enough of using an outside source for forums. EA is designing their own new forums, to be opened in July, and migrating threads over to them.

But there's a catch.

All the threads started after Sims 4 base game became free in October 2022 will be migrated. But not all the OLD threads. Those need to be nominated.

But that's not the only catch, and here's where we need YOU.

Older threads can be migrated only if the person who started them has an active AHQ account matching their forums email address.

If you think you might EVER have started a Sims Forums thread that someone might want to preserve, please see EA_Cade's post on how to make it possible for your old threads to be migrated. And please do it by March 7!

Many thanks, a fellow old Simmer.

YAY!

Hi! I see that the recent patch for TS4 requires the beds to be updated. I see you've already updated yours. May I ask how you did this? I made a bed and I would like to update it. Do I star over and clone a new bed? Or can I edit the package? I hope that makes sense. Thank you!

Hi! I hope you don't mind me posting this answer!

The patch affected single and double beds. What you need to do is update the slot and rig resources in your custom beds. I use Sims 4 Studio to create content.

Step 1. Clone any double or single bed (depending on whether you need to update a custom single or double bed).

Step 2. Go to Warehouse tab. Select slot and rig resources and batch export them. You will be adding them to your custom bed later.

Step 3. Open your custom bed package. Go to the Warehouse tab. Select a rig or slot resource. In the data tab, copy the instance number and save it somewhere.

Step 4. Delete both rig and slot resources from your custom bed package.

Step 5. Batch import the rig and slot binaries that you exported from a cloned bed earlier. In both newly added rig and slot resources, replace the instance number you copied earlier. Save the package.

Step 6. Test your updated item!

Hope this helps 🌞

Simshai91 Buildings Backup Folder ?

Anyone has a backup of all the buildings created by @simshai91 (https://simshai91.tumblr.com)? Mega clears the folders of inactive accounts, and all these buildings are now gone.

[ikari-sims]

does anyone know what may be causing that these boots look extremely shinny on the thumbnail when they don’t actually look like that in game? I already tried clearing it so it generates a new one but it looks the same 🥺 it’s really buggin me lol

[chazybazzy]

Ok, so I’ve been putting this off hoping I’d be able to fix the issues I’ve been having but it turns out my computer is on it’s last legs.

I’m currently having to use my sisters PC to record and edit my YouTube videos because if I do anything that’s more strenuous than browsing the internet on my own it just shuts down.

I don’t have the money to buy a new PC right now because I’ve also been having to pay medical bills for my cat who is quite ill atm.

I hate asking but you guys have helped me out of a bad spot before so I figured I may as well give it a shot. If you guys want to donate to help me get a new computer thank would be amazing and would help me out of a super sticky situation since most of my life is based around my PC.

My Paypal link for anyone who would like to donate.

Love you all <3

[chazybazzy]

I honestly didn’t realize how much simming was helping my mental health until I no longer had the option (and with everything going on in my life right now I really could do with an escape) so please if you can help out I would really appreciate it (even reblogging helps and I am forever grateful to you all)

[chazybazzy]

Oh, I also forgot to say, I’m willing to do conversions/retextures or make sims (when I get my new PC) for anyone who can donate and help me out. I’d offer other stuff but I have very little skills haha

[chazybazzy]

I found a decent-enough set-up for £600. I already have $100 of that so I’m only £500 away from being able to afford it.

Any help towards the goal is super appreciated and as stated above when I get the new PC I can do conversions or sim making for anyone who donates.

[chazybazzy]

My parents have given me £100 towards my goal so I’m now £400 away!

[chazybazzy]

£387 away from my goal!

[chazybazzy]

£357 away from my goal!

[chazybazzy]

£331 away from my goal!

[chazybazzy]

£316 away now!

[chazybazzy]

I hate to say this but; please help!

I’m really desperate now. The sale on the PC I found is ending very soon and I am still nowhere near being able to afford it.

[chazybazzy]

£214 to go thanks to a very generous simmer!

The PC sale ends in just over a week and I’d love to be able to have the money to get the PC before the sale ends and it goes back up in price if anyone else wants to help out.

My Paypal link for anyone who wants to help

[chazybazzy]

£187 to go!

[chazybazzy]

£172 to go!

[sweetdevil-sims3]

sweetdevil-sims out apparently!

Hi guys, sorry for spamming the s3cc tags with this but it appears that it’s my turn on the cancel wagon!

@staff, please restore my account: https://sweetdevil-sims.tumblr.com/ with all of its sub-blogs.

I literally was trying to publish a reply to an ask when — surprise! — I had nowhere to post it to!

MY BLOG HAS NO OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT ON IT. I WAS NEVER GIVEN ANY NOTICE OF ANY BAD BEHAVIOR OR CHANCE TO CORRECT IT, IF IT EVEN EXISTS!

Furthermore, my account and its sub-blogs are of archival relevance to the The Sims 3 gaming community, containing both mods and tutorials.

With this, I hope I’ve gained your attention and you won’t let literal years of effort in creating, sharing, and archiving content go to waste. It makes me very sad to see the destruction of a community where many have made efforts to preserve content, for absolutely no clearly stated reason.

[desiree-uk]

Sweetdevil’s account has been terminated. This is her backup account. Lets hope she gets her main account reinstated as soon as possible. Are you listening @staff?

[doowydoog]

I hope they restore your account soon. @staff

[deesim-uk]

Account terminated! But why??

Hey everyone! My Tumblr ‘desiree-uk Reblogs and Likes’ has been terminated. I don’t know why, I just tried to log into it this morning and I see 'This account has been terminated’. I’m so pissed! There was nothing wrong with it as far as I know. I’m waiting for an explanation from @staff, and hopefully I can get my account reinstated. 7 years of posts and reblogs gone!

[doowydoog]

This is truly sad. I’m so sorry. 

[aikea-guinea]

With all of the happenings, shenanigans, and goings on over the last... well, several years... we can no longer afford to keep our website up. Since our involvement with the Sims has been steadily fading to ghost levels, we've made the decision to go ahead and shut down all our sites.

Because of this, links here and elsewhere for downloads directly connected to our domain will stop working by THE END OF APRIL.

I broke my font...

Hi OK I think I fixed it.

So yeah. Get it while you can and spread the word if you feel like it.

Blue flashing

Guys! I know there’s some blue flashing along the canal. No worries! I’ll post missing resource file asap!

I can’t believe it myself, but I’m happy to say that Feverfew is now available! It would be crazy to put all the information directly here, so I’ve made a dedicated page accessible directly from my simblr top menu.

regarding the ccpocalypse

I did the math and currently I have ~30GB of (sims 3) CC archived! Phew. Probably just a bit of what’s still left. In case someone wants to know what has already been saved - or wants to add to this post backing up a blog of your preference - here are the folders I made:

Ace Creators - Beaverhausenx - Darasims - Galadrielh backup - ILYFS - ILTS - IN3S backup -  Kilhian - Jennisims - HelleN - Marcussims - Mysweetsims - Morganaplays - Pickypikachu’s backup folder - Pixicat’s backup - Plumblobs hair directory - Pseudodigs - Rubyred - Sims Republic - Simtai’s backup - Sakurasims backup - Taultvec’s backup - Visty6 - Yennsims - Winterpond

I am finally running low on cloud storage space and it would be awesome if more people could help checking and saving cc from retired creators that used Mediafire! The spreadsheet above is updated with the blogs that were already saved and some other ones still waiting for a backup :D

[fireflowersims]

Project Mediafryer - About GoS

Hey y'all, I thought I'd write a lil update on how on the archiving operation for Garden of Shadows is going.

Let's get one thing out of the way first: we are trying our utmost best to save as much as we can. But as you may know, Garden of Shadows has been around for a very long time, which means there's a humongous amount of cc tucked away in every corner of the forum. This makes archiving the mediafire cc on GoS extremely draining to do.

At this moment we have too few hands (it's mostly I, Fir3princ3ss, @asimplevampire and @simnostalgia ) doing the archiving. It's very slow going and at this pace we will lose a significant part of the cc on GoS to the Purge.

This is why I'm reaching out to ask y'all for help. Please follow the link to this Spreadsheet and pick a section to work on. If enough people help, we can save it all.

Please start as far back as you can. Creators from 2019 may still be around, but those from 2010 may not. When you're done, upload the files to a file host of your choosing and put the link in the Spreadsheet too. This way we can avoid any overlap.

Please. Help us save the MediaFire CC.
