When a Sim dies, you can have the option to move the urn to the graveyard or keep it in the lot. Of course it will turn into a tombstone when outside.
I'm glad about that. I don't like having ghosts wandering all over the place. I usually put the urn in one of the inventory's to avoid having ghosts but if we can put them in the graveyard, that would be okay too.

How can they translate the German 3 days pregnancy to a 6 days pregnancy? And for the SIMS favorite color..just have them sit in a room with their favorite color and watch their positive moodlet. The bodyshape excuse does not make any sense. If they do not want the community to create bodyshapes that do not fit in the game..they should do it for us since EA does have the technology to do so.

They assume there is no Teens woohoo..I am not surprised Teens can not woohoo..they have never been able to do that for rating reasons.

Schmetterline means butterfly btw.

Service NPC's do not have buildings to come from it says..but I thought I read somewhere the maid does have a house in town.

The needs decay the same speed as in Sims 2...Yeah right. That would mean SIMS still need to use the bathroom constantly would it not?

And for the naming of babies that counts for the pregnant SIMS you are not controlling. For those you play with you can select a name.

No loading screens? This game is going to get so addictive!
I think it's stupid that you can't have a home phone.
I'm actually quite glad that 'maxmotives' isn't in the game because I'm always so tempted to use it, but at least I'll know I can't and have to play properly now.
And *** is up with the 'undies' section being removed? :S

it said you don't need a house phone because all sims have cell phones but i think you can still put one in.

Really we don't need maxmotives.It was said at creators camp that you can adjust the sims sliders by shift clicking on it.

Also undies is under night clothes they just don't have their own catagory.

Thanks for the post!! But if any of you ever come across a site in another language in the future, you can always use google translator to translate the whole page for you. That's what I usually do when I come across these French and German Sim sites. If you don't know where google translator is, just type in google translator in your search bar and it should come up in the results and direct you there.


EDIT: I just noticed the guy mentioned that he used google translator to translate the site. Ah well, in case anybody missed that and didn't know how to get there, now you do.

Interesting article, some useful snippets there.

I'm suspicious of the pregnancy being mentioned as 6 days though, we've only just been told from the hands on event that it's 3 days. I know none of these have come from the final builds but I wish they'd make up their mind. Either 3 or 6, one or the other.

I agree about the pregnancy issue. There has always been conflicting information and I really wish they would clear it up and let us know one way or the other.
