'''Q''' Just wondering, is having children in this game different with skin tones? Like if someone dark skinned and someone light skinned have a child, will that child land somewhere in between? I might have over looked it, sorry if I did, just wondering. [[User:Cheap novelty|Cheap novelty]] 02:20, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |

:Since skin tones can be chosen by a slider it is possible that children will have a melded skin tone. [[User:A morris|-- a_morris]] 15:21, 2 December 2008 (UTC) |

'''A''' Yeah what a_moris said the sims will have skintones that are mixed (for example If you created a blue sim (using the color palete) and a yellow sim (using the color palete) It might come out a green sim or they said sometimes it will come out blue or yellow --[[User:Sprite7868|Sprite7868]] 22:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[[User:Sprite7868|-- Sprite7868]] 14:43, 12 February 2008 (UTC) |

Hey all u sims fans out there!!! Please please please answer this question: will sims 3 work with the Nvidia Geforce 8200 graphics card. its not on the spec list!!! |

Thanks!!! |

The response is yes, it like if you were arking if we can drive a Mclaren F1 at 100Km/h (60mph) [[User:Chief frank 001|CF001]] |

== No Aliens? == |
|||
I find it hard to believe that there will be no aliens in the game, there should be. |
|||
counting the fact that you can go out in space as an astronaut, then shouldn't aliens be like ... a friend brought home from work or something? |
|||
like they do in "The Sims 2". |
|||
Aliens should Be Included. |
|||
Because it's fun to have aliens in the game. |
|||
i my self am a huge fan of the sims alien section. |
|||
although they don't seem to have many new options for the aliens in the sims 2 packs. |
|||
[[User:Xiaou|Xiaou]] 12:10, 3 April 2009 (UTC)Xiaou |

according to Suuny, there will be aliens in the game. check out http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Ask_Sunny_The_Sims_3_Questions |

Does anyone know if a driveway has to be built in the same way as the sims 2? I remember seeing on one of the creator camp profiles that there was a house in the woods where the car was parked on regular ground. |

:It can be placed anywhere (don't need to connect it to street and other Driveway), is much smaller (no space for Sim walking) and has no floor tile. |

In sims 3, pregnancy is still three days, starting ri9ght after the try for a baby conception. The mothers spin into pregnancy the next day, and gradually grow, until they begin labor the next day. |
|||
EX: Two sims-male and female- have try for a baby on Monday. The next day-Tuesday- at the same time of conception the female spins into her pregnancy clothes and grows a very very tiny bump-ie dont try to look for it. |
|||
The female continues to gradually grow until the same time of conception on Wednesday, when she goes into labor, her water breaks, and contractions start. You can either have a home or hospital birth. Each takes at least two hours, and that is the complete full pregnancy. |
|||
{{Amorris talk |

No, it just means that the game continues to prgress. Sims willl die, marry, spawn, and have careers. If you don't play a certain family, they will still progress, unless you make a new gmaefile, then the neighborhood would reset for your new file. |

I would say at least fifty years, since Mortimer Goth is a child and in Sims 2 he's an elder. Riverview doesn't make sense, though. Betty and Bob Newbie are teens and Skip Broke is a child......

Engine
Does anyone know if the Sims 3 engine has a name? It's not propietary, that was someone misunderstanding the words in an article and Sims 3 isn't listed under games with Renderware on wikipedia. Duskey(talk)(blog) 10:14, June 30, 2010 (UTC)
It used to say RenderWare on WP but it got removed. It's possible though. GEORGIEGIBBONS 17:05, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
Haha!
Did anybody else notice that on the Sims 3 came case on the main pg, you can see a young Mortimer above the 's' in Sims? He gets caught off though. There is also a younger-looking Corneilia to the left of a stern-looking officer. oh! And an evil-smiling child girl at the bottom right corner near the 'EA" sign. Then a nicer one next to a black lady on a phone above. Hehe....Sims can be so funny.. -- 24.131.224.165 20:32, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
Does The Sims 3 console have the ageing system and kids?
Q: Same as the headline. GEORGIEGIBBONS 17:04, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
