How many families and houses can you have in The Sims? [[User:Potterfan1997|Potterfan1997]] 14:02, January 5, 2011 (UTC)
 
:If you're not talking about Complete Collection, that depends on whether or not Unleashed is installed. Without Unleashed, there are only the ten residential lots on the Sim Lane loop. With Unleashed, there are about 30 lots in Old Town. By default, eight of them are zoned as community lots (one is vacant). Of course, that's per neighborhood, not per game.

Thanks. [[User:Potterfan1997|Potterfan1997]] 10:11, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 
Another question, where do the '''Crisp Family''' and the (I'm not sure how it's spelt) '''Eliison Family''' come from? Because, I was playing with the Roomies and we '''Threw a Party''' and those two families came along. I haven't created them, and they aren't in any of my neighbour hoods. Can anyone help?

You have wrote the Notes of The Sims as an administrator.
 
The Sims requires the program to be logged in as an administrator if you have Windows Vista and Windows 7. Which means that If Hot Date, Vacation, Unleashed, Superstar and Makin Magic is installed, with Old Games made for Windows 98/ME/XP it is possible to run the Sims.exe on Windows Vista and Windows 7 as an administrator. Except Sims Original Game, Sims Livin Large and Sims House Party that it works okay.
 
== Compilation release not listen on this page. ==
 
There seems to be a compilation release not listen on this page. The Sims Collection, Volumes 1 to 7. These are 7 different realeses, each with the base game and one single expansion pack. There's a photo here: https://sphotos-a-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1175371_10201789862925392_951527288_n.jpg

:I am not sure what you mean by "Sign up for The Sims". The Sims is a game you ''buy'' from Electronic Arts. If you want to edit this wiki, you do not need an account to edit, but you do need one to write [[The Sims Wiki:Fanon Portal|fanon]]. You can [[Special:CreateAccount|create an account]] right now for free, or [[Special:UserLogin|log in]] if you already have one. --'''[[:User:K6ka|k6ka]]''' ([[:User talk:K6ka|talk]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/K6ka|contribs]]) 17:46, September 27, 2014 (UTC)
 
== Sims 1 Playability on Win10 ==
 
<span style="font-weight:normal;">The Sims page trivia for TS1 says, "The Sims is considered to be unplayable with Windows 10 and even installation is glitchy," but speaking as someone who frequently plays The Sims: CC on my Windows 10 laptop, that's not strictly true. It takes some messing around with settings, and it IS very glitchy, but definitely playable. You have to play windowed, which is achieved by adding "-w" (w/o quotes) to the end of the shortcut target box in the shortcut properties tab. The game will start with a black box overlayed on your screen on top of the game window, which can be removed by holding ctrl+alt+del and then closing the page that appears. The window can then be moved around freely, but 100% of the time (after a while, how long varies), this is kinda weird to explain, but like, the game screen doubles itself and pops out over your screen like the black box at the beginning, and it will stay on top of every single other window (except </span><span style="font-weight:normal;">ctrl+alt+del, though doing that won't get rid of it this time) and is unmovable. The weirder part is that you can move the game underneath it and the popout screen will stay there. This can be fixed by restarting the game (takes under 5 mins to load on modern PCs), but it's still </span><span style="font-weight:normal;">very annoying because it shows up over other windows, so if you want to do something else you have to close the game entirely.</span><span style="font-weight:normal;"> There are some other minor glitches strewn throughout the game, although most of them were already there (ie, not compatibility bugs). Someone can probably condense this better than me (look how long it took me to write it in the first place) [[User:Katgirl28888|Katgirl28888]] ([[User talk:Katgirl28888|talk]]) 09:49, May 18, 2016 (UTC)</span>

Windows 7 is needed for sims 1?

:No. Where are you getting this information from? ''The Sims 1'' existed before Windows 7. —[[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] <span title="Canadian!" style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF">Talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F">Contributions</span>]]) 12:03, October 23, 2016 (UTC)
