MCCC and BE are Mods, leaving them in your Mods folder means your game is modded and is not vanilla. Don’t waste your time, don’t waste our time, don’t waste EA’s time. And don’t lie about it. Too many people lie about removing their Mods, it’s baffling. #TheSims4

[CL] [LS] White Screen when loading world with penthouses | EA Forums - 12605482 Basic Info Platform: PC/Mac Mods: Unclear at this point. Game Version: 1.118.242 Symptom When trying to load a world with a penthouse such as San Myshuno,... - 12605482

It looks like building r-rentals on penthouses currently cause white screens and endless loading screens.

Try this method: forums.ea.com/idea/the-sim... and revert the lot to a residential one.

If you ever needed visual proof as to why apps that claim to "clean" your Mac of unwanted files should never be used, see this picture from someone's post seeking help on the EA Forums.

SIMS_4_V2_PC_CLIENT folder appeared in Mac Home folder | EA Forums - 12216643 After patching Sims 4 to 1.115.216.1230 this folder has appeared in my Home directory: with the version number at the main menu being correct but [SDK:... - 12216643

Origin is dead, Sims 4 and 64-bit Sims 3 will now require macOS 10.15 Catalina EA have finally killed off Origin. All Mac users now require EA App in order to launch their games. EA App requires macOS 10.15 Catalina or above therefore if you are playing, or will be hoping to …

macOS 10.15 Catalina is now required to play Sims 4 and 64-bit Sims 3 on Macs thanks to the EA App system requirements - bluebellflora.com/2025/04/30/o...

Just because the game is broken doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be trying to play it. Where’s your sense of adventure?

The Sims. You’re slacking

There's nothing like sitting at my desk, drinking coffee, eating panettone, and designing my RL garage renovation on my laptop whilst listening to The Sims 1 soundtrack 🥰 #TheSims1

Let me know how you get on!

The Sims 1 is back! But only on Windows. Here’s how to play it on a Mac The nostalgia is immense and Jerry Martin’s music is still as good 25 years later. But only for Windows users. 25 years ago Maxis released the original Sims game and it was superb. Silly, qui…

I finally managed to get Sims 1 working in Boot Camp on one of my old Intel Macs. Here's how bluebellflora.com/2025/02/01/t... #TheSims1 #Mac #BootCamp

The Sims 4 Plants and Planters With Eco Lifestyle came a brand new style of planter, a vertical design. With Cottage Living came a new planter for oversized harvestables. Not all plants can be planted in vertical planters and ov…

But TS3 is the only game that requires EA App in that list though?

:(

Origin shutdown and what it means for Mac users EA are shutting down Origin on April 17th 2025. This means that if you want to carry on playing your EA games, whether you purchased them, redeemed gifted codes, or claimed free titles, you have to…

If you're still using Origin on your Mac you need to read this bluebellflora.com/2025/01/19/o...

EA have nothing to do with TS2 for Mac. It was licensed to Aspyr.

How has TS3 been optimised? PC version received an update to fix an Intel CPU issue. No improvements were made to the game, it was a compatibility issue. Same as the 64-bit update release for Mac in 2020.

Me neither and I should be trying to help people over there I suppose. They’re horrendous.

Exactly! It’s so intrusive. Not all players are interested in this FOMO content

I HATE how this Event shit is forced into my game.

Do you regularly download lots from the Sims 4 gallery ? Please do these things before doing so:

- Backup important saves
- Test your game if they work after downloading (endless loading is a big issue still)
- Switch lot types before downloading and placing something (has a few issues)

Nice job Peacy, sorry you had to do this. Glaring omission on EA’s part IMHO

Changing your sim’s plumbob colour Bored with the usual green plumbob? Want your plumbob to be a nice shade of blue? How about a translucent pink? Maybe black when your sim’s needs are rock bottom? Previously you had to delve …

Something fun to do in your game that requires no Mods or CC - change the colour and transparency of your Sim’s plumbob! bluebellflora.com/changing-you...

A builder mainly but nothing makes me happier than breaking my game.

I've updated my quick and dirty blog post on the malware issue from yesterday with new info and to better fit into the overall blog.

I've created a Discord support server for Mac users playing The Sims! It will hopefully work alongside my website and means I can test and troubleshoot in real time with Mac Simmers 🥰 discord.gg/WNAPgKMG59
