Simularity Update 095
Wow, lots of news to get through today! I have several mod updates for you including fixes, new features, corrections, and translations. I will also tell you about some of the things I have planned for August here at Simularity and at the end is an important note about Patron and EA’s EULA about mods and cc. I hope we can both make it to the end of this post!
Mod Updates
I answered a few requests recently for some new mods and mod edits. The Don’t Do That Mods has been updated with two new additions: Don’t Shovel During Heavy Snow and Don’t Smash Dollhouses. The Island Living Holiday Traditions has been updated to fix the Sunbathe tradition so that Vampires are now exempt, and Mermaids are now exempt from the Scuba Diving tradition. While I was at it, the Snowy Escape Holiday Traditions have been updated so that the Go Sledding tradition can now be satisfied when your Sims go sledding together rather than only when they’re sledding alone. I still have a few more requests to get through but as always, feel free to send more my way via my contact form. (Remember, patrons/supporters/donators get priority with their requests put on the top of my to-do list.)
The Semi-Long Lifespan Mod has been updated not only to work with the latest patch but also fix the latest bug! Install my lifespan mod and you shouldn’t have any more problems with quickly aging Sims. After noticing that Teen Sims can’t use my Public Welfare mod due to its timing, especially if you have High School Years EP, I have edited the scheduling so that the appointment to pick up the welfare check happens later in the day at 4:30PM and on Wednesday instead of Thursday. This should make it a little more accessible to teens who are in High School and maybe everyone else as well.
Thanks to the generous ShanniSim, we have several new Italian mod translations for you! The mods with the new Italian translations are: Artist Trait, Farmer Trait, Green Thumb Trait, Modern Art Gallery Lot Trait, Movie Theater Lot Trait, Scientist Extraordinare Aspiration, and Wedding Spot Lot Trait.
August Plans
I have a lot of plans for what I intend to create in the month of August that include both mods and custom content. Let’s start with mods…
I have a new lot trait in the works that was requested and has a “supernatural” theme to it. I may make a new personality trait to go along with it, I haven’t decided yet. I want to figure out the new Wants and Fears system. I changed all of my traits’ whims into wants but I need to figure out the fears part of the system so I can add some fears to my traits like Agoraphobia and Bipolar, possibly others. I want to enhance my Adventurer Career with chance cards and maybe a “work at home” option. I also have a brand-new career in the works but it’s going to take some more time to finish. I’ve actually got a whole list of ideas I want to get done soon but these are the top things.
As for cc, I plan to recreate/repaint my old body hair cc which was in the tattoo section of CAS to improve it and make it for the new body hair CAS category. That reminds me that I still need to get those decorative tattoos I created a while back, back onto this new website! I’ll try to get that done very soon. I’m also thinking of updating my Vintage T-Shirts sets to work with a base game shirt mesh if possible. I haven’t decided yet. Regardless, I do want to create more of those shirt designs for new sets if I can.
Important Note
For my full post about the update to the EA EULA regarding mods and custom content, please see this post on my Patreon. I’ll be brief here. I am going to continue creating mods and custom content for as long as it is fun for me, and people continue to enjoy what I do. As long as there are people who want my stuff, I’ll be happy to create more. As always, there will never be any paywalls between you and my content. I can and will still accept donations to keep this site running and be able to afford new packs that I can then mod for you all.
