#And doesn't require hosting fees that I can't afford

[crossf15]

Kind of funny kind of sad that I'm the most capable I've ever been in my life of starting and maintaining a web comic like I've wanted to do since I was a preteen, but with the least amount of motivation to do it during the worst time for web comics to succeed. 🙃

Pottersville 1.0 Has Been Released

Well, I finally did it. I finally released the world that I've been agonizing over for the past three years ever since I ran into some glitches that were bound to be dealbreakers for players. It's why I spent so long trying to troubleshoot it. The irony about all the blood, sweat and tears is that I wound up learning so much about CAW that I'm now juggling several WIPs after I swore Pottersville would be my last world ever.

I'm still pretty much troubleshooting this world (and my computer), but rather than stall Pottersville any longer, I've decided to release it. It's why I'm calling it Pottersville 1.0, so I can leave room for any upgrades and fixes if needed.

Specifications:

It's very large, with 195 lots and over 120 sims.

It's very Showtime and Late Night-heavy, and requires all but University, Supernatural and Into the Future to run. It also requires Riverview from The Sims 3 store.

There might be some issues with Starlight Shores venues (Hoi Polloi, Binder Clips and Brotherhood of Fine Fellows) causing sound glitches. If any sound issues occur, maybe try importing fresh copies of those lots from SS.

If the world is too laggy from so much going on, remember, you can: kick out households, turn some lots into "No Visitors" or use Overwatch and other mods to help out.

P.S. All feedback welcome, as Pottersville still seems to have glitches here and there. Any insight you could provide would be of great help!

Please Consider Donating if You Like Pottersville and Want to Support TheSims Depot!

In all the years of running The Sims Depot.com, I've never asked for donations, because ads would pay for the webhosting fees. However, post pandemic, times have changed. Not only has ad revenue dried up, people are using ad blockers, which isn't fair to website owners or content creators. I know people hate ads (so do I), but remember that it's the ads that keep content free.

So, I'm asking for help. (Learn more on this page). Any amount will do; it doesn't matter. (Heck, give a penny if you'd like!) I'm not looking to get rich; it's just that I can't afford to keep hosting the site and creating content for free when it literally costs me money now.

I'm currently using paypal.me, but if people are too uncomfortable with this, I can set up a Patreon or something. Just let me know in the comments.

Thanks in advance! 💌
