Eco Pack questions
« on: November 26, 2011, 01:47:20 AM »
First of all, I am referring to the Renault Eco Pack, to clear any confusion.
 
Next: Can someone please provide me with information regarding the bills? I know that the Twizzy, Windmill and Solar Panels reduce bills, but I didn't write down the numbers.
I would like the amount each item reduces bills by, along with how many you can purchase that will reduce your bills (the information is displayed in a popup ingame when you first purchase each item).
 
Now time for the strange part. I have downloaded this from thesims3.com, and the set appears in my purchase history, I have it ingame and can happily play with windmills and stuff like that, but every link I try to access it from is, you guessed it, a dud. Whenever I visit the page (logged in or not), I get a message saying "We're sorry, this content is not available in your region". I made a thread in the official forums here, but the people there didn't help with this problem.
Am I going mad, or did this pack change the regions it was available in?

I was not able to see it either and had the same message. Maybe you have the wrong link?

For either of those, just go to the bottom of the page where it says change language. Change it to English/US or English/UK. Not sure which one works for which one. I'm in Australia and that's what I had to do to get them.

oh and in regard to the saving, not sure, but I think after 10 solar panels the savings stop, but I can't remember how much the saving is.

There are a number of older Store items that have simply been discontinued.  It's possible that the Renault set is one of them.

Both eco packs (the Renault and the Prius) were available a couple of weeks ago when I put my house Bailey on the Swap Shop. I know because it uses a planter that is in both packs and I went there to get the link for the page. I had to change my language to view one of them then and I remember when I got them both I had to change the language because it said I was in the wrong region.
I've found on things that are no loger available it actually says sorry this item is no longer available.

I live US, so I don't get why I couldn't see it if it's still available because why wouldn't US be able to see it?

In my official forums thread, someone mentioned that the Renault set was Euro-only. I can't confirm this, because I can't remember ever changing my language. To be honest, I didn't know how until Twinmum said it.
And I'm not a geography nut, but I don't think I live in Europe.
