Max number of playable families in an apartment

(1/2) > >>

upinout:
I thought that we could have a total of 4 playable familes move into an apartment lot..

I have this one apartment that I'm trying to move a 4th family into, and the game won't let me.

It's a custom made lot, instead of one building, I have 4 seperate houses built on the lot.

I've been able to move a playable family into all 4 lots, just not all at once.  As soon as the 3rd family has moved in, the game only gives me the option merge the 4th family with one of the 3 that are already on the lot.  I know it's not the actual apartment, as I have moved the families in and out several times and tried all the "apartments".  But once I have 3 families there, an NPC moves into the 4th house, and I can't move the 4th family into the lot.

Anyone have any suggestions?

According to the Prima Guide, you can have a maximum of 40 sims/pets per apartment lot, or 4 apartments of 8 sims and 2 pets.  If you can't move in that many, it may be a problem with your video drivers not being capable of handling the larger sized head count.  

What is your video card?

upinout:
I have a radeon 9800 pro in this rig, and the families that already live in the apartment are a family of 2, another family of 2, and a family of 3.  That's a total of 7 sims living on the lot.  The 4th family I'm trying to move in is a single sim.  I Don't think my graphics card would have an issue with 8 sims total.

And thats the problem, there is that cheat that sets your building as a low/meduim/high thingie...

That "low/medium/high thingie" has to do with class of the apartment, not with the number of playable residents.
