Report on the EA forums that it use not run on the Shield, I wonder did EA ever patch the game for it. And if not we probably wont see a patch for the Nexus 9.

endacl · 15-11-2014 8:41pm

Works fine on iPad Air.

I'm slowly making my way through my rebuild.

Hococop · 17-11-2014 5:03pm

Just wondering why they haven't included Troy McClure or Lionel hutz? Is it out of respect to Phil Hartman

corkie · 17-11-2014 9:03pm

Bad news for anyone with a Nexus 9

According to a post on the EA forums, EA have no plans at present to get TSTO working on it.

god's toy · 18-11-2014 7:25pm

...and my Nvidia Shield is on its way to a PM tonight for me to collect. oh well.

Wondering if its a Nvidia K1 chip, android running in 64 bit or ART problem...

More likely the chip or 64 bit as TSTO works on nexus 7(2012) running Android L.

Reports of TSTO not working on the Shield either.

They haven't said so, but that is what is assumed. Neither of the characters have even appeared on the TV show since he died so I'd imagine they are fairly unlikely for the game. A shame as they were two great characters and they are running short at this stage.

Other than a real Sideshow Bob and Gil, I can't think of anyone worthwhile that is missing at this stage.

I'm surprised that Helen Lovejoy or Lindsay Naegle haven't appeared in the game yet. Old Jewish Man is another possibility.

For a minute there I thought you were on about Krusty's dad. That guy that was the villain in the movie could be a possibility too.

There's a ton of people that the show could go on with, a ton more kids (like Lewis, Brockman's daughter, all the Superfriends), the nerds who help Homer, Frank Grimes, Homers mom, the real Seymour Skinner, Homers brother, Cecil, Chief Wiggims wife, Gabbo...

Theme wise, they could have a Shelbyville theme, where you can get the impound lot, the characters and Flanders RV. They could have a Simpsons family theme where you get all those random family members that Homer rounds up to prove that the Simpsons don't have a stupid gene.

That's all I can think of right now!

Cookie Kwan and Charles Bronson Wise Guy,

How many of them are any way important? They aren't. They are all either minor characters (Wiggum's wife) or one offs. Mona Simpson is the only exception and as far as I know she is actually dead this time.

That was my point. All the worthwhile characters are already in the game.

RoryMurphyJnr · 19-11-2014 12:34pm

Still no idea why they don't include sideshow bob.
Complete waste of what should be a great character.

And we need more land, why can they not give is the chance to buy more?

And on a side note, has anyone done a complete reset?
Think of storing everything and restarting my layout but afraid it will all go belly up

I'm working my way through a reset now. It's slow progress but I like the way it is coming along. You can get ideas from here. It's a thread with a link to other threads where people have posted pictures of what they have done with their buildings.

marcbrophy · 19-11-2014 2:47pm

My god Mars Bar, the effort some people go through to make their towns pretty looking.

Mine must look like a f'ing pigsty to the neighbours that I have

Excellent thanks, usually play on the iphone, may do a reset off the ipad

I would say that Wiggims wife is more important than the space blob thing, Shona and Booberella. All I can hear in my head when I think of her is "Claaancy"

endacl · 19-11-2014 7:27pm

It's about time we had some of the cameos introduced as TO characters.

I want Spinal Tap in my town, dammit!

RoryMurphyJnr · 20-11-2014 5:06pm

Puritan Flanders added

Casino is back as well at last woohoo, loads of goodies available

hoodwinked · 20-11-2014 5:31pm

and marges mom!

corkie · 22-11-2014 8:02pm

Daily Quest and possible rewards!

Whispered · 23-11-2014 8:55am

:mad::mad: Not very happy with myself at the moment. I put everything into storage and didn't realise that it would reset tasks which were underway already and that it wouldn't be easy anf entertaining to pull everything back out.

My town now looks like a shanty town minus any roads with all of the characters stuck down in the bottom corner on the one patch of concerete I bothered to put in.

Characters who had been almost finished long tasks, just restarting them. Gah - I'm a dope!

hoodwinked · 24-11-2014 4:44pm

so have day 1's task done, apparently we'll get one a day, with possible prizes? i was wondering why after homer finished nothing happened and looked it up,

here they are for anyone who wants to know who to keep free (i got it from the tapped out forum):

Today: Homer triggers and has a job

25th: Sacagawea Lisa triggers and has a job with Homer

26th: Sacagawea Lisa triggers and has a job with Puritan Flanders

26th: Homer triggers and has a job

27th: Puritan Flanders triggers and the flanders and simpsons family needs to be free (Can use Homer, Marge, Lisa, Bart, Ned, Ghost of Maude Flanders, Rod, Todd,Grampa, Patty, Selma, Jacqueline Bouvier, JubJub and Hugo)

27th: Homer triggers and has a job

28th: Sacagawea Lisa triggers and has a job with Puritan Flanders

29th: Homer triggers with no job but Krusty has the job after 24h

5h4mr0(k · 25-11-2014 10:33am

For anyone that needs to stop a characters activity so that they can do something else, and doesn't want to spend donuts, put the character into the inventory.

I had deliberately avoided giving Homer a job but then set Kang to probe him. Would have tied him up for ages.

Mars Bar · 25-11-2014 7:27pm

You can't do it with the Simpson's house though as you can't put it in to inventory so you're stuck if you send Homer or Lisa on a task.
Bart comes with the treehouse so that's ok.

5h4mr0(k · 28-11-2014 10:57am

Anyone else having trouble doing the feast quest today? I have Lisa and all the Flanderses available but the feast doesn't appear on any of their options.

I did it with Ned and all the Simpsons. Make sure you're using the right skins for Ned / Lisa.

Ned is the only Flanders I have at the minute so I don't know if the others should have the option.

This is the feast for the animals using the leftovers from yesterday's feast. I'm using the right skins. I think from the initial description of it, it should Lisa and maybe Ned in the thanksgiving skins, but the option isn't in their menus.

Ya, I don't get the option as well for today. It says make Sacajawea Lisa host a leftover feast (or whatever) for puritan Flanders and they are both free and both in their costumes, but I don't have the option to do it.

In other news I bought the volcano lair and Hank Scorpio in the hourly deal. It's the one I mostly wanted, and it cost 150 donuts in stead of 200. I've about 250 left now so might see if I can get Barney's bowlarama or something like that as well if I see it come up.

pedatron · 28-11-2014 1:04pm

I've 136 donuts to spend. What character would people go for ?

Barneys isn't one that will be coming up. Click on Gill and you should be able to see the full list.

It's actually showing as coming up tomorrow at 11am, so hopefully I'll pick it up then although I'll be quite hungover tomorrow so might not have sufficient mental capacity for it.

Just updated it. Going to take 10 hours to complete task, so won't be done today.

god's toy · 29-11-2014 1:05pm

Still no K1 support.

If your referring to the Tegra K1 on the Nexus 9. EA have no plans at present to make it work on the N9. Someone posted on the EA forums.

I think the Nvidia Shield Tablet is another device the game doesn't work on.

I'm looking for more t.o friends.

Any ideas?

The Christmas update now makes the game playable on the Nexus 9!

I wonder will it also now work on the Nvidia Shield Tablet?

Mars Bar · 04-12-2014 1:37am

The download is pretty big! Over half a gB.

I'm liking my revamped town under the snow!

Still not finished it as I have taken up more land. I need to raise a lot more money before buying the rest of the land.

Looks great so far, 4 new characters plus loads more good stuff

Grand Moff Tarkin · 04-12-2014 10:45am

Have it downloaded but all my people are doing jobs for the next 10 hours so have to wait to start the toy building quest with Homer and Lisa.

Same. I put all my characters on jobs for the day before I knew the update was available.

Mars Bar · 04-12-2014 1:30pm

I've got 226 donuts. What should I spend them on?
