Simularity Update 086
I’m so sorry for going quiet and on a very unplanned hiatus for so long. Things have been very, very rough in real life for me. The health of my dad whom I’ve always been close to and my beloved little dog are both declining, and I slipped into a depressive episode (I’m bipolar, in case you missed that). I’m now desperately fighting my way out of said depressive episode by trying to focus on getting back into modding. It seemed like as good of an idea as any other. It’s a slow slog but I’m not giving up.
I started playing the Sims 4 again last week when I purchased the new Game Pack (Wedding Stories was quite the boondoggle, wasn’t it? I sure hope they fix it.) I’ve noticed a few new things to mod, a few things I can add to my previous mods, and come to the conclusion that most if not all of my mods are working with the latest game patches. I’ll be updating the little notice on the sidebar shortly with that info. If you’ve run into anything that isn’t working that I’ve missed, please let me know. During my unplanned hiatus, I received several mod translations for my mods that I’ll now get to work adding to and updating my mods with. It will just take me a bit more time than usual between having to remember how to do it and feeling so drained all the time from the damned depression.
I just finished updating all of my modding programs and extracting the latest XMLs so things should be ready for me to mod. Should be. I still need to locate my notebook where I had all of my modding notes written down and new mod ideas sketched out. Don’t worry, I’ll find it somewhere. I only have two rooms it could be in to search through.
Okay, that’s enough rambling for now. Long story short, I’m having a really rough time lately but I’m doing my best to get back to modding for you all. I don’t have an ETA for when new stuff or updates will be ready, but I did manage to stay awake for several hours straight today instead of sleeping the whole time so that’s progress in and of itself!

Sending ((hugs)), healing thoughts for your dad and dog, and hopes for more good days than bad! Just lost my dad unexpectedly this year, and my (almost) 2yo and 4yo dogs have been critical in my staying even a little functional (I have chronic health issues including constant pain)-I can relate. Just found your stuff and am loving it which is how I came across this post. Take care!
