I'm 70 years old and have been playing since beyond time as you know it. I just turned my game off after an almost all day playtime and watching your excitement makes me want to turn it back on! Who cares if it's almost 3:00 a.m.😂 btw you just got a new subscriber.🎉

This means so much to me!!! 😭 I’m glad ur here and enjoyed the vid!! :)

My TS4 breaking was the best thing that happened to me lately. Going back to Sims 3 feels like home, I love the feel of living back in 2009.

[@mandynowak1773]

I've been playing Sims 3 for over 11 years now and have never regretted it. (Now with lots of CC, mods, etc.). So I always find it amusing when someone plays it for the first time after so many years. ^^ With all the expansions and accessory packs, it's just a wonderful thing. (It doesn't run nearly as smoothly for me as it does for you, LOL)...

[@cityfolkwii]

Yknow, this has me thinking that It may have ran so smoothly bc I only have 3 expansion packs installed ! I was so shocked that it hadn’t crashed the entire time I played 😂🤍

[@MySwitchup]

So hilarious, I'M IN! We demand a whole-ass LP series

[@THEBIAMPS]

im gonna cry,, we are the same age and ii loooove sims 3 and finally finding you who speaks in memes/references like camp rock, with the best gaming style too, best yt channel ever

[@cityfolkwii]

I’m so happy u get me 😭 even happier that u enjoyed the vid!!!

[@THEBIAMPS]

😭 no seriously its like I've been waiting my whole life for this series and play style!! And the spongebob sound effects and editing is chefs kiss(i work as a professional editor)😩🤌 and now ROBLOX TOO!?!? i wanna be ur friend so bad❤ thank you for existing and keep making these!! lowkey binge watched all of them already

[@izzy.gardiner]

shoutout to youtube recommendations, i just found your page and i love it so far! it’s hard to come across entertaining sims 3 videos that aren’t a decade old. already subscribed (like 5 mins in) and will be watching whatever comes next.. although i’m hoping it’s a LP! 😺🤘

[@cityfolkwii]

you’re so kind 😭😭🤍🤍 thank u for such a sweet comment! I’m glad u enjoyed :)

[@MicahRion]

I never knew you could preview the lots! I had so many hours in TS3 but only ever played Sunset Valley so I got to know all the houses over time anyways.

[@cityfolkwii]

A few other people have mentioned that they also didn’t know!! I’m so surprised to hear that since it’s been my favorite thing to do! I love house tours and stuff like that 🤣

[@jacques8823]

Just downloaded and fixed the sims 3. The repack came with mods preinstalled and loading screens are like 1 minutes max. THIS GAME IS Amazing. It feels like a sequel. I wish i knew how to change CAS and sim models though.

[@cityfolkwii]

“It feels like a sequel” is SOOOO real 😭 how did they drop the ball with the sims 4 so badly 😳

[@TatyanaP-b7e]

Hey can you please tell me how you fixed your SIMS3 I haven't been able to play since they deleted ORIGIN. I am sooo upset!!!

omg i also just recently hopped back into TS3 and i honestly forgot how much there is to do in TS3 since ive been playing TS4 for so damn long. now i get why TS3 gamers shit on TS4 so much 😭

Sims 2 had the thing where you could make your own prints on the sims clothes (kind of like shirts in animal crossing) there was a bonus program you could download where you uploaded a design (that u drew in ms paint or something) and you could make prints on their shirts or pants etc. That combined with sims3 colorwheel would be so badass in a new game

Sims 3 was released a few weeks before I turned 18. It was 2009. I had been playing it (sometimes a lot, sometimes on and off) until like 2021-22. Only then I got bored. But I still have my saves and mod folder. It shows how good this game was, sadly, very outdated now technically and culturally.

@TatyanaP-b7e mods are everything from game fixes to game improvements. You can find them all over. On Tumblr, on KZbin in video descriptions and websites like mod the sims and the sims resources. NRAAS mods are the most popular game enhancement mods. Some mods might help with lag but I haven't found any that help me. But some people swear by NRAAS overwatch LD's Smoothness patch and Regul save cleaner

[@jessicake97]

Ts 3 is soooo gooood. Playing it sine it came out, took a break for ts4 for about 4 years before i discovered that its bullcrap now went back to only playing ts3 for 2 years now Also: I found out when you play ts3 in online mode EA is constantly trying to spam your game with commercial for the sims 3 store in build and create a sim mode and that is what makes most games crash in this day and age so I now only play withmy wifi turned off. Sad but there apparently is no ither way to stop them from spamming your game since this is an automatic process Also when you are like me and have a lot of save files, this is what I do. I have like 5 different families in different save files. So I created a folder on my desktop. When you go into the save files of the sims 3/ea folder you can just drag and drop them in and off this folder how you like. So when I play with one family I put the other ones in the folder I created on my desktop so the game doesn't have to load all this crap when going into the menu.

[@cityfolkwii]

This is amazing advice 😍 thank u so much :) I’m def gonna try turning my WiFi off!

[@jessicake97]

I also discovered that some mods or clogged games can resolve in memory issues(?) I sometimes get 0×0000000000000014 could not be written as a popup and it wants me to close the game immediately without having the option to save. I figured it could be because of mods. Sometimes it's just when some sims do specific tasks mod related. They don't even have to be in my household. BUT Nraas maastercontroller is a life saver. I got this pop-up 2 days in a row now at the same in-game-time every day no matter what I did. So I figured it must have something to do with the other sims in my neighborhood. So I reset the whole town with nraas mastercontroller and everything worked out fine. I struggled with finding help on this so maybe my experience help someone else 👍
