A new patch for the Sims 3 is out, this time updating the game to version 1.3.

Moving Into The Valley

In the fourth part of The Sims 3 Indepth, we are seeing what options there are when we build our couple a new home. We look at the price of real estate in Sunset Valley, ranging from shorefront properties to those well inland.

We will be looking at the budget a couple has available, building their house from the ground up and furnishing it with the basics, also making sure that somewhere along the way, their house looks coordinated with help from our own basic guide on using the Create-A-Style-Tool.
