Yeah, me too. Although having 'haunted home' is not something I really dream of. Still it's fun to decorate it :)

IF TL decides to give the rest of the world the HDS Halloween update, the below pictures are what should be included. Also, according to zoroak who provided these pics, there are goals and you shouldn't start ANY of the long contracts before doing them. I'll take it that we'll have to do contracts as part of the goals.

*crosses fingers that we'll get the below for this weeks update*

Haha, I moved mine yesterday to the games room next to the bar, TV and pool table! I think the gothic bed, toilet, bathtub, sofa and fireplace will stay all year for me even though they're not exactly my favourite colours, I like gothic things, LOL! ;p

@howdy2you, I was offered gems (in the subsequent goal after installing) to install HDS halloween in HDS as well as 6 other TL games, but no guarantees who will get the offers to install. So if you don't mind waiting, but then again, you may not get the offers, I think others have mentioned that it's random who gets these offers to download.

So I've seen Halloween items in my neighbors' homes, and I keep reading about downloading a Halloween edition of the game. How does this effect the normal game? I thought there would just be an update that had Halloween items. I'm a little confused.

Just install the Halloween Version of the game and use that. You can delete the regular version, or leave it on your device, just don't use it right now. TL always advises that we use the most current version of the game, and the Halloween Version is the most current. Your same house will show up in the Halloween Version, but you'll get the goals and decor as well.

It's not an update, it's a new HDS Halloween edition app that is downloaded from the AppStore, your progress in the original HDS is saved on TL servers, is linked to your UDID and this game will load automatically onto the new Halloween edition app that you download. In short, your old HDS game will be on the new app. The new Halloween app will have the Halloween backdrop, theme and decor/items to buy.

Ok thanks. I was scared to mess with the original game. I've worked REALLY hard on my house and would be pretty upset if I lost it.

zoroak
10-17-12, 06:55 AM
No you won't lose it. But if you switch between the 2 versions, you may get sync issues and lose seconds to minutes of play if the versions are not forcequitted between switching.

The Halloween version does have the drop coins, they are candy pieces instead. Yes you can delete the regular version icon, just hold it until it wiggles, then hit the X.

Oh and the coins I'm talkin about is where ur furniture drops huge amounts after certain time periods. E.G. The bamboo shower drops over 700 coins each time. It's from today's update.

Yes, that still happens but it looks like candy but you get coins for them.

I get what Delforce is saying. In the HDS app store update...most objects had a timer that would produce money. But in the Halloween version it's not happening. The coins looking like candy is different, that's when you're collecting likes/sparklies.

I'm getting the timer when I click on it... But when the coins are ready to collect I do get the candy on top .. Some are 10 coins and most are higher

No, the likes/sparklies still show up, the candy = the coin. I've had candy and sparklies, so I know they are different.

10-17-12, 10:09 AM
I wasn't trying to sound rude in what I said. I know that the sparklies are there and show up [we're talking the Halloween version right?]. When you tap to collect the sparkles, you get a candy truffle which is the coin. What I'm saying is that I no longer see the little pop up above certain items that collect coins over time. That part was from the original HDS update yesterday. If I go into my original app they are there [the ones that are complete] and the timer for the ones remaining, but they are not in the Halloween one. I think the lowest timer is something of 2 minutes? My game has been open for over an hour and they don't come up. Maybe it's just some of us...I was just saying that I think Delforce and I must be on the same boat.

Maybe. Mine show up as Candy instead of coin. For example, the Washers can't be LIKED, but I do get Candy on them every few minutes. Yes, the halloween version. Maybe you need to force close your game. I was in mine for about an hour and I was constantly getting candy but not LIKES, as the news feed didn't change. *shrugs*

You are not being rude
Okay the big candy is the on I got after clicking on sparkle... And the litle candy on top of washing machine are those that collect over time.. Washing machine gets 10 coins every min I think

Exactly. I know the difference, I just don't have both in my game.

My HDS original version - Object timer coins, and sparklie likes show up

http://i45.tinypic.com/4htuky.png

My HDS: Halloween - Only sparklies that turn into candy coins show up. No object timers/candy pop up above item that is complete.

I KNOW RIGHT. I dont have problem with the goals either.
What im saying is that it would be BETTER if those items unlocked by goals are gem based.
like that of frankenstein, headless horseman, zombie waiter in Restaurant Story.
or Frankenstein table, mummy baker, or vampire baker in Bakery Story.
