Whoa, activity spike!

@Tangerinemonkey: The issue you mention about being charged for items when interacting with your inventory has been fixed, and said fix should be appearing in the next update. iPad/Tablet only issue, FWIW phone users.

This happens after the Inventory interface is hidden and bought back up again - say, you've in the Inv and place something in a house. The telltale sign that this has happened is that the INV tab on the bottom-right will not be highlighted in green - if this happens, you can simply go to the Furniture section, of Rooms mode, and then back again.
Overall, just look before you place something - if it has a Simolean or LP value next to it, hit the X button to cancel before you waste hard earned currency =)


@YahooKitty: Sometimes a Sim will not return home correctly after being sent to work, or for a drive - when this happens you should be able to simply use the Whistle to return them to whatever house you're at (as you discovered). This is a bug, but luckily there's an easy workaround for it!

You're correct about the ovens not offering shorter baking times, and TangerineMonkey is correct about the early warning for going to work, in that both are as designed.

Engagement rings are consumable purchases, and each one has a different success rate - the Eternity Ring is 100%, but obviously costs a lot.


@ceefred: As of Update 2.5 the maximum amount of Sims is 19.

I'm a little confused - if you're building a new house on an empty lot and then back out of the Create A Sim screen, the house remains there waiting for you to add a sim to it so no money is lost. Same goes for when you back out of the Create A Sim screen when going to add a new Sim to an existing house. Did you mean that you started building a house but cancelled the action before it completed? If so, see below.

As for cancelling actions, the first time you use it you are warned that you will gain no rewards for cancelling the action and that any cost to initiate that action will be lost.

I've noticed that the houses both internal and external are completely black despite being repainted etc inside and out. Also, I'm noticing that on the town map, I can see the roofs of the houses (also completely black) but not the walls in Town view. The shadows on town map are black squares. Not sure if this has been noted or not.

I've also noticed that sometimes, the sims appear to flicker at random, especially when doing an activity such as watching TV etc.

Can these issues please be rectified?[/quote]

To the mods... are the issues I listed (above, and on page 3) being rectified

I have missing Lifestyle points from my in game purchase. I have an Asus Transformer TF101 and running version 1.1.6 of freeplay.

An activity spike says Mr moderator, so why have you not replied to me? Three people that posted after me got replies and yet I didn't. If you aren't going to do anything with the adverts/graphics thing for ice cream sandwich users, could you just be honest about it please? I can not see a reply to anyone who has posted with regard to this issue. Very rude. I am disappointed.

Why have I not received a reply?

Have a sim turn them on.

Any news about the Acer A500? After updating to ICS android 4.0 the game does not work anymore. When you start the game it opens and as soon as that first advertisement pops up and you push the x at the top right, the whole game shuts down and for a split seconds (if you are quick) you can hit the send a report button.

Just FYI even before the update it has had a few bugs since the start of the ads. Now that we have updated to ICS it is completely messed up.

Anyone else getting the same things?

Sorry, I can't answer any of these questions regarding Android based issues - I am only involved with the iOS version of the game.

I know that a bunch of faulty ad and stability issues are being worked on, but I honestly couldn't say much as to what and when.

You have to turn on the light so it will stay on, otherwise it just goes on and off if a sim or dog enters the room. Just tap the light when you have a sim who's doing nothing and it will turn on.

Hope this helps! [/quote]


hi,cannot le..although open the light, just that part got light,others still dark..wallpaper,floor all is dark...

want to ask, my sims already engage..but before that, they already move in stay together but now got 1 goal is need two sims that engage and move in stay together..what should i do?i need move 1 sims out?

So why no reply on the add a sim issue that myself and the majority of ppl in this thread has posted??

The question has already been answered a few times.

The issue has been fixed, and the fix will be delivered in the next update which is currently in the hands of Apple. We cannot give a solid date as to when that will be released until they've checked that it meets their standards and they'er happy for it to go live on teh store.

As soon it's ready, we'll release it and you guys can download - once you have it, you'll simply need to add one more sim to the problem house. Once you've added that sim, all the extra ones that have been erronously added to that house previously will be removed =)

Have a sim turn on the light & it will always stay on.

Hi Everyone!

We're working hard to have additional devices supported for the next update and are commited to fix the game issues some of you are seeing after updating to ICS. We applogise for the inconvenience this has caused.

Hello,

I have a Sony Xperia S mobile running android 2.3.7. I downloaded the game through Google Play and when I launched the game for the first time, it was trying to connect to the server but then I was prompted with the following message: "A server error has occurred. Please visit www.eamobile.com/countrygate to choose your country and click the customer support link.(5002)".
I was playing this game to my sg2 before, so I've copied all game data from the sg2 to Xperia S so that the game would not need to connect to server and download content. Yet this did not solve the problem.
I searched the web and many other people experience the same problem with me.

Will it be a fix on the next update?

Thank you
