haha, so lovely...I wish we could have pet dragon, some sheeps for my innocent red riding hood would be awesome...but that would be against EA's traditonal broken EP-intergration.

Ooh. I'll just save my money and wait for this EP then. I was feeling a bit weird about skipping Showtime but it didn't appeal to me at all. Now I have something to look forward to. Witches, zombies, fairies, werewolves, oh my! I sense some True Blood and Buffy characters coming soon to my game!

kiwi_tea: Those toys are adorable. I have to say I feel sorry for the person who will get the blame for the leak. Unless it's that stupid woman who does all the horrible SP videos. But I know it's not her because she's the SP lady and barely capable using a computer so it's very very unlikely she is responsible.

I highly doubt that something this big could get out accidentally. I think this was a planned leak. There is a lot of controversy with SHT with Simport and how it's like Late Night in some respects, so I think this is a similar situation to GEN and the leaked Pets trailer. It's like, "Hey, have this expansion pack that you may or may not like, but OH MY GOD what is that shiny thing over there it's AMAZING! LOOK at it! LOOK HOW AWESOME IT IS! I wonder what it could be?! Is it...CLUES TO THE NEXT TOTALLY AWESOME EXPANSION PACK? HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ABOUT SIMPORT YET?! NO?! Look at this Loch Ness monster toy and stuff!!!!! SPARKLY FAIRY WINGS!!!!"

Agreed, the leek might have been planned to please the ppl who were bitchin' about Showtime :P

I'm personally not going crazy. Why? Because Sims everyday life still lacks a lot of aspects. I mean why adding x-tras like sparkling fairies when a basic thing like ass grabbing is still missing? X.X
EA should learn to compose EPs. Maxis made it perfectly with The Sims. You know, sparkly x-tra things like Magic and stardom were added as a finishing touch, when sims everyday life was full of nice things to do.

On the other hand, this is still one hell of a entertaining EP. I really like TS1 Makin" Magic *childhood memories* and it seems to be pretty similiar.
New sliders? COOL. Poisoned apples? FUCK YEA. Zombies? YES! I loved TS2 zombies, they were so oldschool Romero's style of zombies with scary walk and so on ^^ I hope TS3 ones will be the same.
And I'm happy because a lot of ppl so wanted Magic, it's nice to see the crowd squirtin' with joy..

There are several new images of the moon in the leaked 1.32, a half-moon, quarter-moon etc.; presumably they are planning on the moon going through this cycle and possibly tying this to the werewolf, who can only transform during the full moon? Here are a couple of the moon images shown in Starlight Shores:





There is also a CASP titled cuAccessoryEP7VampireTeeth and 3 _IMG files of the child vamp teeth.

I think the problem with EA is that they only look at the bottom line and invest just as much as they need to sell the product, ignoring the reputation of the franchise. In the case of The Sims 3, there is practically no competition, so they cut down the budget to a bare minimum and the devs are left in the dust, forced to make skeleton EPs that only just cover what you can put in a trailer and feature list and don't "waste" any time on padding that make the whole experience better without being a feature you can market.

I honestly think the only way to change that (if not some other company steps up to try to take advantage of the dissatisfaction of many Sims players) would be to create an Open Source sim game by the fans for the fans.

As for the actual topic at hand: I also found some animations in the DeltaBuild0, like a2a_alchemyPotion_throwPotionAt_potion and some other potion related ones. Haven't tried them yet.

This totally makes sense. I don't think they forgot heaps of data on such a tiny patch and what that patch does is to fix the lame SimPort - an unpleasant addon that continue to anger the crowd with that freaking cc-attachment and saved sim spam.
You are such a foxy bitch EA, but all I want to talk about now is MAGIC.

Oh I hope so, that would be awesome. I remember every time my werewolf sims would transform in TS2 my game would lag so much. It was always around 8pm every night!

I've said this, too. I quit playing Sims 3 in 2009 out of disgust with EA. I came back a couple years later because they did make some much needed improvements. Now it seems like they've shifted back to lackadaisical mode. It's like you damage the potential of the game with every purchase you make.

I would love to see an open source alternative, and would certainly contribute where possible...the creative aspects are the best part of simulation for me.

And maybe even witches spells working only on certain nights, as well.

I have to disagree with the idea that this patch leak was intentional.

Imagine what this will do to the game as far as compatibility with Premium Content or other mods and CC. The new CAS skin colors have broken all default custom skins from what I've heard, for example. This patch with unfinished EP7 content potentially has very serious consequences. I'm glad I held off on patching.

If they wanted to leak magic as the next EP there were a lot of other ways they could have gone about it besides altering peoples' game files.

Why can't people stop moaning about weather. It was nice to have it but god, let it go... we'll get it in due time. -_-

^EA doesn't care about CC. They say they do, but the game is their priority, not player content. Even if players got custom skin tones working problem free...

I am happy for those who want magic but for me, it is two disappointments in a row. I did get Showtime but while I like all the 'stuff' I am not really enchanted by the celebrity stuff. As for Magic, the beekeepers and mystic/psychic career look good but the magic stuff worries me. I don't want magic in my game and a pack that has so much magic is bound to pollute my game with stuff I don't want. I am very sad we are not getting a pack that can be used to round out our current hoods rather than make major changes. I have other games with fantasy and magic. If they would put some medieval stuff in the game as well, I think it would be easier to swallow.

On the other hand, I know that some people really wanted this...and some of the features do look intriguing. But as someone said, it is going to be a long year waiting for the next EP. Releasing this info so early certainly leaves a sour taste in my mouth. But then, none of the EPs really have been all that thrilling.

I'll agree there, magic everywhere would be annoying. This is why EA would need a town for us to travel to for magic to work well.
