Scuba Diving in The Sims 3 is amazing (and terrifying)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- The Sims 3: Island Paradise came with the buggiest world in the game, Isla Paradiso, but I managed to get it running smoothly again.
I decided to become a professional scuba diver despite the fact I am mortally terrified of sharks and not overly keen on deep water either. What was I thinking?
Part of the Playing The Sims 3 in 2024 series.
"The world is a bit buggy."
TS4 Players: "Ah, feels like home."
Honestly, I'm quite fond of your channel because you're one of a slim handful of male sims players who do fun stuff like this instead of immediately installing basemental drugs and extreme violence, killing a bunch of random sims, then putting the game down never to be played again. You actually put effort into what you do and you even play female sims as often as male ones! As far as male simmers (and female simmers in another direction tbh) go you're basically a unicorn lmao
And on top of that he's also one of the few that plays the older Sims games as opposed to exclusively Sims 4! :D
If you can, please watch Call Me Kevin and Jim Pickles sim videos. His Sims content is creative, chaotic and very funny without killing mods.
@@peachesandcream22 Call me Kevin still the same as she described. I double checked, that's not what she likes about Ryan. Ryan really plays the gameplay, not as a joke. Even if at the end he starts a fire where someone dies lmao. Personally, I like that his sims don't look like a joke either
@@peachesandcream22 I've been watching Kevin since he was at 100k and yeah even he's like this. He's one of my favorites but all of his important sims are male, he uses extreme violence a lot, he does meme videos without really understanding how the game is meant to be played, etc. There's a time and a mood for Kevin, but Ryan is such a breath of fresh air in that regard, since I feel most male players do what Kevin does.
Why make it into a gender thing, why does it matter if a player plays with a lot of men or women?
The mermaids without tails terrify me
I don’t even know if that’s a normal thing or not. I was so confused why they had no tails but I’ve seen them with tails in other worlds 🤣
@@ryanplaysthesims also had this problem, but sometime after the third save, the tail of one of the mermaids my sim met earlier became visible
@@ryanplaysthesimslast time i played was 5 years ago on pirated 15 in 1 or all in 1 version on a weak laptop, but such thing never happened. From what i read later it can be caused by patches requiring other dlc to work properly. Interconnection in sims 3 is wild once you start reading patchnotes
@@ryanplaysthesims it's a glitch, you need to get them into stylist with mastercontroller, give them the scales in accessories & out again
I got that bug as well, but just noticed some weeks after playing on that save. I didn't figured out how to fix it
You should try running your own resort
I’m planning on doing it soon!
@@ryanplaysthesimsPLZ DO I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS!!
@@ryanplaysthesims ive built a lot of resorts and i must warn you that people get REAL whiny if you dont have every single type of buffet table, a pool, a hot tub, and outdoor food stands like the ones you find at seasonal festivals. huge pain in the neck when i was trying to build an upscale cabin retreat in riverview.
most fun in any sims game ever for me is running resorts. I love it.
The Sims 3 is such a fun game! Don't feel bad for playing it so much hehe 🙂 I love your sims 3 videos!
I've been playing the sims 3 recently so much because of your videos and I'm fighting the temptation to buy loads of the packs
Do it. i’ve bought all the expansions pack because he tempt me to😭
Steam will have their summer sale by the end of the month. I actually looked this morning. They usually go down to $10 if you can wait that long. I'm waiting to buy more too
in the mean time get all ur nraas mods otherwise ur game will not be playable 😅
get the anadius dlc unlocker. i got all the dlc for free 😉
@@bluebosnian you are the best. Thank you. I 'acquired' all of the store worlds from games4world. ;)
If you have a fear of deep water and sharks... you now owe us a video of you playing Subnautica.
Yes, it is the best scuba diving simulator!
The pause before ‘you prick’ was superb 👌🏻😂
The message in bottles show up at the decorative bottles - they shine a little and look sort of like a wine bottle. i saw several in the vid.
GOD I miss playing Sims 3 I LOOOOOVED the Island pack. The boat houses were great! and the kraken! THE KRAKEN!
The mermaids without tails are so bizarre lol
Ryan I’m DYING for a let’s play or series of sorts I need the lore
Thank you Ryan now i’m playing the sims 3 every day😂
I LOVE your sims 3 videos I really feel like the Sims 4 is nowhere near as entertaining and your content is always hilarious. Thanks for sharing!
I was one of those who got discouraged by this EP with all the glitches and bugs when it first came out. You have definitely motivated me to give it another go! Thanks for all the laughs and effort you put into your videos like always. ☺️
I love these skill based playthroughs, i've never tried scuba diving before lol
I love this expansion pack! I would live out my dream island life through my sims. During your play through, all I could think about was how many times you saved your game because of crashes or if your sim died while diving or being taken by the Kraken.
Great video, this is my favourite pack in the sims 3. It provides endless gameplay and it never gets old
I've started playing Sims 3 again on my old laptop after binging all your sims 3/2 videos and I LOVE IT never stop pls
Would like to see a playthrough of running a hotel in island paradise!! That was an interesting game mechanic which I miss in the sims 4😢
there's a ghost in me hotdogs 😂 please make that merch
i don't remember ts3 having this many grammar and spelling mistakes lol 💀
The world isn't as buggy as you'd think. It's not on my computer. It only gets a bit laggy tbh but other than that it's great! I absolutely love that world and the things you can do in it, just wish you could do more with the island living pack in the sims 4 like this.
I hope you got that gold and palladium smelted. They increase in value incredibly.
I can’t play this pack, I play on my MacBook Pro M1, 64-bit metal. But on this particular configuration, all the water interactions don’t show up in the game and there is no way to fix this :(
So sad, I wanted to do a rags to riches with scuba diving, so I love watching you play it ;)
I have the same problem and unfortunately I don't have a fix either, still waiting for someone to mod this, but you can still play with scuba diving. For me only the ocean is a problem, but sims can snorkel in pools to get their scuba level up. Then I can click on the icon of the diving spots from map view, which lets my sims dive there. Can't catch fish underwater, (same as bugs on land) but everything else works. It's not great, but at least it's somewhat possible. The 64 bit version is a bit of a pain in the a**, but maybe this helps
binging your videos inspired me to download sims 3 last night, and i accidentally played for like 4 hours lmao
Omg I miss scuba diving sm!!!😭
omg this happened to me when i had a pregnant mermaid in my game too. she swam all the way to the hospital, gave birth to twins, and swam back with both babies lol
6:27 You can call her on her Shellphone
I binged these sims 3 videos. Please keep them coming!
A really great mod helps with this at sims asylum. It helps with the diving and the dive spots. I am guessing you don’t have all the nraas mods and mods to help with things like this. Not a criticism, just hoping you get them for better gameplay.
I used to be one of the people that helped point people in the right direction for mods/fixes. Shimrod is the person you should look to in sims asylum (you need a membership, but it’s free) to get the reset for diving and fix for it. Check this out as well as all the nraas mods! You will not be disappointed!!
Some of my favourite game play was done playing TS3 Island Paradise, it makes me sad that it's so buggy. I remember having a family I played for months and so much unplanned chaos happened but it was amazing and with all the island stuff to do, then the save broke :( and I didn't used to back up saved then, so it was gone forever.
I discovered your channel a few days ago and I'm so happy I found you. You play just like me - I love it! Thank you!
Ryan blessing us with the 4th banger video in A week. 🥰
I finally managed to download sims 3. all because of u!!! Having so much fun ❤
ive watched ur videos so many times because i love sims and also to learn english and now my accent is slowly turning british 😵💫😆 love from indonesia 🇮🇩
I loved you calling out the sloppy writing 😅
i am eating these sims 3 videos UPPPP
OH! Oh!!!!! Ok, to fix the mermaids you can cheat and age them up and then back down again. I have a save file where I did that with a sim that was old and soon to die anyway. Just cheat someone so they know everyone then invite all the mermaids/mermen over (I think there are four of them), age them up then go to full edit mode and put them back. It's tedious but afterwards just save the file and then every time you want to play Isla Paradiso copy it and play the copy instead of creating a new one. Or get the save file I told you about in the other post and do it in that one and same thing.
Your channel is precious ! Please never stop uploading
😊I really enjoy your streams. I play sims 3. I am addicted lol!! I love Island paradise, but it is very buggy 😕
Ryan I take it you’ve never played tomb raider II then, sharks galore 👏🏻
We're living in the golden age of RyanPlaysTheSims
Thank you do much ! You're by far my favourite youtuber of the sims 💞
I really need to play sims 3 more, you make it look fun
i’ve been binge watching your videos since yesterday and i love them all!!!!!!
i love these sims 3 uploads! ive been playing ts3 again & its such a buggy mess ngl 😢
Ah man, been a looong time since I ever dropped by Isle Paradise.. I'm guessing its unstable as hell as ever and Mia is still there with her uncanny valley to the max.
I kind of really miss this open-world feeling on Sims 4 regardless how buggy as hell it got. Especially around Ridgeport and of course, this island. The Neighbourhood progression is hell, but sort of kept things interesting.
Mermaids can't swim in deep waters while pregnant? The heck?
Excited for a new video! 😊
"Immediate squid."
My game used to glitch so bad and it would have part of the screen blacked out so I never got to really experience the best parts of the Sims 3, at least visually.
Wait till he meets Salty Seaworth!
“Not gonna lie I had a few drinks last night.”
2 seconds later: “this is SEYMOUR OCEAN!”
You’re hungover and it SHOWS mate 😂😂😂
I'm always down for ts3 vids!!
can you try out the smoking model in sims 3? Would be so funny. I actually installed it and only played it once, but it can be quite annoying
She identifies as a mermaid or just an imposter I played Paradiso, and you could always see who was a mermaid: even on land, the had colorful scaly legs.
Omg, I just realised, Seymour Ocean. Hahahaha! xD
@ryanplaysthesims ah I’m currently on holiday in The Netherlands at the moment and I’m loving it here but I am really missing playing the sims 2 right now. I’ve even written down plans for various households for when I get back to playing on it
Anyone reading this, any advice to have this pack run better? That maybe doesn’t involve hours or deleting and moving sims? Is there a mod or anything like that? If I have to delete a lot of things that’s fine but I literally can’t play with this pack and it makes me sad! Idk if it’s my laptop or just the pack. Thanks!
What I did was delete every houseboat and houseboat lot/ports, get NRAAS mods overwatch and error trap, and only play with this pack and the base game enabled and I was finally able to play. Hope you get to one day!
@@joehasse8289 thank you, thank you! I really appreciate it! I’m glad people have figured out ways and made mods and stuff for us to play this pack!
@@KangaRhrew certainly! I really hope it works for you! It’s such a beautiful world and I don’t play in it often but it’s definitely worth it if you can get it working. I think you can google the families that have routing issues too outside of the houseboats as well which I forgot to mention!
Three words people with lag in IP.
DELETE THE HOUSEBOATS
YOU can drive a houseboat, but if you don't delete the others, or make them community lots, NPC's will drive them around causing your world to tank.
6:30 What?? Everyone knows mermaids have shell phones
Did you use ellacharmed fixed Isla Paradiso?
I want to get this pack again on my laptop but I fear it will explode
Is there anything specific you do to get this pack running well? Ive read to delete the Scott family and houseboats. I have this pack installed, but never opened the world.
Yes please!
The last video he did with this pack he ended up deleting all the families that live in house boats and it seemed to help. I don't think the game can handle the regular world activities in addition to all the water graphics.
I know acottonsock made a video about it, but I haven't watched it in maybe a year? I didn't know if there was a trick/mod I missed. Thanks guys!
There are certain houses (not just houseboats) that have routing issues that cause the game to lag. I can’t remember them now but google will say which houses need deleting. The nraas overwatch mod helps to reset things that might cause the game to lag over time too and it’s an absolute game changer!
@@ryanplaysthesims thank you so much!
The names you give your sims are so stupid and I love it
Love that pack but yes it is still buggy 😢
Why your mermaids don't have tails ? 😮
Please do a live with scuba diving🤞🤞🤞🤞
It's such an awesome pack but oh so broken and a bit unfinished. I wish it was working better.
so fun lol
Seymore ocean 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
