lags, freezes and Simport doesn't work well.I don't regret buying it, but without Mods I think it might have been almost unplayable for me. I didn't buy it for this feature and so I'm not too disappointed not to get the full performance out of the EP.

Not to mention Simport is notoriously buggy. Most players now have gone well past this and finding someone to send your sims to is difficult. Watch your Sims rise to fame as they perform on stage in front of cheering crowds in all new venues. You’ll start off singing for tips on the street and performing Sing-A. Being a singer is all about singing, and to really succeed, you need to be willing to belt it out anywhere. However, they cannot join a band as it might conflict with their solo career. Sims in this career can perform on stages or in the streets with or without a guitar. The major problem is that this is an old EP for an old game, and part of the new features is to send your performing Sims by Simport to perform for other players. Sims 3 Showtime features: Venture into the new world of Starlight Shores and play out a rags-to-riches story with your Sims as they become superstar singers, acrobats, and magicians, or even moonlight as a DJ. Singer is a profession in The Sims 3: Showtime. I've managed to live with them quite well.

I believe there is some careless design which leads to routing errors. I found the town 'buggy' and have had to use NRAAS Mastercontroller quite regularly to help keep the freezing under control. There are lots of venues for your singer, acrobat or magician to perform at and earn money. Showtime brings you a new town, which is completely dedicated to 'show business'.
