So, I got her straight down to Drea’s Salon and Tattoo Shop to have her join the profession. They all come pre-placed in the Twinbrook, but will need to be manually placed in any of the older neighborhoods for the careers to be playable.Įmbracing all clichés of girly Sims players, I had my sights on my new character going down the stylist path. Some of the new professions, such as stylist and firefighter, require career-specific buildings. A welcome development, since it should keep the game fresher for much longer than was the case with The Sims 2.Ī few new hobbies such as inventing and sculpting have been thrown into the mix to make the self-employment option more viable. Unlike most of the expansion packs for The Sims and The Sims 2, both World Travels and Ambitions have set out to significantly change the gameplay rather than simply adding some new furniture and hairstyles. Previous to this expansion pack, when the work day started for a Sim, they climbed into the carpool and then vanished from gameplay until their shift was complete. At last, Sims are playable when they are at work. What won’t disappoint any long term Sims players is the chance to finally cross one of the most requested items off the fan wish list. There doesn’t appear to be the option to upload your own custom artwork to make truly unique tattoos, which will undoubtedly be a letdown for those Sims fans that can’t get enough custom content. In true Create A Sim style, you can customize the colour and transparency rate of nearly every aspect of the preloaded tattoos. The tattoo of the grim reaper playing air guitar is evidence the sense of humour Sims fans have come to love is still in place. The preloaded options aren’t bad and range from silly cute to biker rage in style. You can select which body part and where on it you want the tattoo to be placed. EA has to be given credit for not going half hearted into this tool. Not much has changed in the Create A Sim tool with Ambitions but we do now have the opportunity to ink up our Sims with tattoos.
#THE SIMS 3 ALL IN ONE INSTALL#
Once in the neighborhood, a clean install means a visit to the Create A Sim tool to make a new character. Riverview and Sunset Valley were outstaying their welcome anyway, so this new swamp land-ridden town can only be greeted warmly. The first thing that is different when you load up Ambitions is that we now have a new pre-created neighborhood called Twinbrook to play. In the end, though, my addiction won out and with a clean install and slight trepidation, I stepped into the brave new world of The Sims 3: Ambitions. Enough of a bitter taste was lingering in my mouth to make me uneasy about playing the game so soon after release. I got so fed up that I completely uninstalled The Sims 3 and, until it came time to review the new expansion pack, The Sims 3: Ambitions, it stayed uninstalled. Not just a mere vanishing of them from a particular neighborhood, but such corruption of the files to make them completely unrecoverable. Installing World Adventures meant the kiss of death to all of my established Sims households. Step 6: Go to C://Users/User Name/My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 and delete cas.cache, compositor.cache, script.cache, social.cache and simscompositor.Clearly, with any new game there is the potential for glitches but there are glitches and then there is having your entire game destroyed. Step 5: Copy the Store.package files to C://Users/User Name/My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/ Mods/Packages and paste them

Step 4: Copy the Mods folder to C://Users/User Name/My Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 and paste it Step 1: Download all the Store files (This might take a bit) If you want collection files to organize most of this content you can get those hereįor store fixes which you will need to use some of my store sets in.
These files do not have the Store World Content, but if you want the Worlds and their content you can find them here, I did not add them because I did not want to risk duplicates, you may still get a few duplicates but it’s nothing to worry about. package files so no launcher needed, all you need is a Mods folder which I’m supplying for you and the Store.rars Yes I know you might feel like you hit the gold mine of Sims 3, but it is as the title states, these files have nearly all Store content from the start of the Sims 3 Store to now.
