Just got mine from Amazon- a surprise, because the ship date was supposed to be the 21st.

I went through the launcher library and removed the few bits of non-CC that I had there. I removed my entire Library, Mods, Saves, and SavedSims folders from the Electronic Arts directory, purged all caches, and installed.

Made a Keeshond kinda like my RL one, but I was a little disappointed that I couldn't half-uncurl the tail. CAP seems pretty thorough, though, I was amazed at the detail and the number of sliders. The animations in CAP for the different personality traits are supercute.

I replaced all my CC hair, clothing, cosmetics, paintings, and patterns. I also put in my navetsea v2b skin and bloom feet- all of that seems to work fine. So does hryniuk's No Foot Tapping and No Route Fail Animation, and the No Martial Arts Idles.

NRaas NoCD also works.

I can verify everything that's been said about objects with slots- forget about your CC furniture, shelves, and kitchen appliances...

Anything you'd like me to try for you?

I ordered it online for pick up today and do you know what they said to me? Come back in a week.

I live in America and I ordered in advance, why don't you have the game? The only reason I even preordered was for the LE version and now I'm not even going to get it!

Can't. Website won't let me.

Apparently, the shipment from EA didn't arrive, but they're hoping it will come before Tuesday and they'll call me when it comes in.

I haven't seen very many of them yet. There was a rat running on a treadmill in the upstairs apartment over the stylists- the animation wasn't bad, and the rat looked and moved like a rat. When my sim took the rat from the little aquarium it was in, there was no animation for that- the rat disappeared from the cage and reappeared in the sim's inventory. She took it home and let it go in the back yard. It ran off a few feet and disappeared. I had her Maine Coon Cat patrol the area but there was no sign of it.

My cats have been catching a lot of these... I think it's hilarious that they can keep em in their inventory. Besides a valuable beetle, the only one I've put out in a terrarium is a turtle... it moves around between its log and its lil pool area, and has to be fed. Haven't had the sim play with it yet, she's too busy seducing half of apploosa plains The cats like to watch it though.

I wish we could let small animals roam on the ground for a little bit.. I think it would be more realistic.. and then like watch the cat try to paw at it... To bad there isn't like a hamster ball type thing for the small rodents... that would be awesome.. I guess I'm just to picky lol..

I suppose it would be cool if we could lets the small pets out. I always let my hamster out, though I realesed it into a box or a ball.

If a cat has a small animal in its inventory, and takes it out, it IS released on the ground. My cat had a beetle that she kept taking out to play with, until Mom wound up selling it to pay the bills (it was a rather rare beetle )

So, if you take it from the pet inventory, it's loose; take it from the human inventory, it gets a cage, terrarium or whatever.

That was a stag beetle and went for about $125. Not a huge amount but she's broke

Lol aww kitty wants newspaper bed... My cat in real life likes shoes and boxes... I wander how long it takes for them to escape if you put them down? If you put it down will your pet cat or dog try to eat it? Do birds fly around the house? Can you have more then one small animal in a cage?

#43 Old 19th Oct 2011 at 8:52 AM
I haven't tried letting a bird fly around the house but there is an option to open the bird cage just like in ts2. You could get the bird to fly away if you open it I guess lol

That's just too cute, haha, I wish my kittens would do that, they always love to shred, chew, make a huge mess out of my papers then drag and scatter them all over the floor.

If you mean the 'limited edition' version that promises you the pet shop, it's available in stores. You could get it now if you bought it at the store instead.

So I just got it...

Why didn't I have to enter the code to get the pet store?

Been playing non stop since I got home this evening and I am loving! Yesterday my couple had twin girls and one I've decided to make a horse enthusiast (love it!). Adopted a horse called Knight, chestnut coloured mixbreed. Had a play about in the create a pet. Love the animations for the different traits, they are ever so cute. Plan on Cleo my athletic, brave horse enthusiast training Knight and creating a show jumping champ and turning them into the best of friends. So far I'm loving the pets. And the update fixed my falling through the floor problem (bonus!). :D
