Blowtorch!

Maxi's worlds emptied of era specific stuff – made for simmers who wants themed hoods of their choice.

So, you found T.O.O.L, the super useful mod by Twisted Mexi, and learned how to decorate your sim world.

But there is this problem with Maxis houses and items, which do NOT fit in your sim world. So far, the most used method has been to hide them, as in either move them away (if even possible) from sight or use a hider/override to make them invisible. That method has its limits, is very tedious (need to find, make an override, ect, and there are SO MANY items)

Blowtorch has another approach. It takes out the items (houses, vehicles, modern deco, well - all silly deco really) from the world. You can then place nicer deco or game items instead.

The items are not hidden from catalogue, so you can place the same items back but in a different place if you so wish. Or use cc deco. Make the world medieval, or Victorian, or sci-fi, or whatever.

HOW DOES THIS WORK?

This mod edits the preloaded deco in the world. It changes game files – and the changes will affect all your saves, old and new. If you decide that you want the deco back, you can do it either with the GAME REPAIR function or using the backup of the original folders that I included in the mods folders.

You can either use all my edited files – or the ones you want. If you for example want Willow Creek to be as it always has, but want a blowtorched Oasis Springs, just delete the Willow Creek files before installation, and keep Oasis Springs.

I have blowtorched almost all the hoods in the worlds, both EP and GP: s (See list in Documentation PDF for exceptions.) If you don’t have all EP/GP I recommend to delete the ones you don’t have before installing.

(Save the zip with the mod somewhere safe so you can add new worlds when you add a new EP/GP with a world.)

Here are some general rules I went by:

- All landmarks, architecture deco, street deco, vehicles, with special effects - blowtorched

- Functional objects: outside tables, playground items, and such – blowtorched. Place them again where you want them!

- All lights, both streetlights and built in hood lights, blowtorched.

- All palm trees, ever pink trees, wispy modern beeches, and other modern plants, blowtorched. (I of course kept the palm trees in Sulani and Selvadorada)

- ALMOST ALL THESE THINGS (not the built in lights) are still available in the catalog (debug, live edit) items though. So, if you still want a modern, but DIFFERENT hood, you can place them again, as you want them. This is a big advantage compared to hiders – those usually hide the items also from the catalogue.

- Visual effects belonging to vehicles and other stuff mentioned above, blowtorched. No modern yachts, no airplanes.

- The lights are gone. The world will be dark at night if you don’t place streetlights or such.

WHAT I KEPT

I kept the seasons stalls, where they are available (if you have the Seasons EP.) They can also be placed, but as they are in conditional layers (changes with the seasons) this can't be done by placing them manually.

I kept all spawners. All the fishing spots and all the bugs, frogs, dig sites, wild growing plants.

Lighting mod included

This mod also includes the Sunblind lighting mod by Softerhaze. Lighting mods also change these files, so I added Sunblind with the creator's permission. Read more about their mod here.

(You do not need to download or install the mod; it is included in the Blowtorch mod.)

If you want another lighting mod or no lighting mod, you need to edit the files manually.

This is done by replacing the resources “Sky Box Texture Data” and “World Timeline Color”.

ECO LIFESTYLE NOTE!

Unfortunately, the Evergreen Harbor world that came with Eco Lifestyle (EP 9) has some special evil magic and the deco needs hiders anyway. If you play with that world and want it to be BLOWTORCHED, install the file ELHoodHidersMerged in your Mods folder.

Other recommended mods:

Check out T.O.O.L and Twisted Mexis other mods here: https://twistedmexi.com/Mods/

To add deco stuff outside lots:

T.O.O.L – at Tmexis page you also find information about his CAW-project, still in alpha testing.

I also recommend his Better Build/Buy mod, and his toggle mods, especially the Strangerville Story Toggle on if you want to use Strangerville as a normal world. And also his that enabled build/buy on the Secret Lab lot – in new saves.

Zerbu has a couple of super useful mods:

All Worlds are Residential  https://zerbu.tumblr.com/post/173398784785/the-sims-4-mod-all-worlds-are-residential

Venue changes https://zerbu.tumblr.com/post/160347810775/the-sims-4-mod-venue-changes

Twelfth Doctor has a great mod for travelling to all the hidden/special lots, so you can edit them: https://td1sims.tumblr.com/post/635457539495084032/travel-to-venue

This mod is also useful if when you work with TOOL: Clickable worlds by Awingedlama

Q&A about Blowtorch mod

1. Can I use this on my old saves?

Answer: Yes. The mod does not affect the saves, or your CC, or anything other than the game files in the Windows directory. You can easily uninstall the mod by using the backup files (included) or do a Game Repair.

2. Why are there stuff not deleted? Annoying modern fences in Windenburg Ugly Modern Business district, for example?

Answer: some items are a part of the world mesh and is not yet possible to edit. If there will be a solution later, I will update the mod.

3. Will I have to update the mod after patches and new expansions?

Answer: Yes. If the patch/ep/GP does not include a new world, you just reinstall the mod (see instructions below) as you installed it the first time. I will make updated versions asap when new worlds are released.

4. I don’t have EP X or Y – can I use the Blowtorch mod?

Answer: Yes, but I recommend deleting the folders for EP/GP you don’t have. See list in the PDF-file with documentation.

5. Does this mod clash with Timeless mod? Answer: No, but it makes Timeless obsolete. Timeless hides stuff - Blowtorch removes the same stuff.

6. How about mods like Nandos Egypt (Strangerville) or The Sense Medieval's Medieval Windenburg? Answer: if you have a mod that changes one hood or one world, and want to keep them as they were, don't install the Blowtorch files for that world/hood. The Senses default replacements are not affected.

7. Should I keep my hiders of stuff used as hood deco? Answer: Better to take them out. This mod eliminates the need for hiders.

Even more detailed explanation here.

Where to find nice themes hood deco to use with Blowtorch?

You can basically use any item, from game or CC, to decorate hoods. Try out the options with T.O.O.L to change the size of objects!

I already posted some Hood Deco CC – and I have much more to come. I have been converting/editing/creating and preparing hood deco from Sims Medieval, Sims 2 and Sims 3 and other games – my CC is medieval/historical themed but I hope for other creators to add to the hood deco options in the future.

Due to filesize all the downloads can be found on Patreon (of course for free): Download Blowtorch (Patreon, always free)

There seemed to be some problems loading the Patreon page so I added a SFS-folder also with the same files. Download Blowtorch (SimFileShare)

This list will include all ratings and tags, so read at your own discretion! :)  

And Your Enemies Closer by GoldenUsagi - Rated G

Some Satanic monks summon Aziraphale to sacrifice to a Beast of Hell.   Unbeknownst to everyone involved, the Beast is Crowley.  The ritual sort of goes downhill after that. 

On Being Bar Mitzvahed by write_away - Rated G

Zachary Hirsch is quite certain that he's never met Uncle Anthony and Uncle Ezra before, but all sorts of relatives have come out of the woodwork for his bar mitzvah, so it's not like he's surprised.

Crowley and Aziraphale occasionally crash b'nei mitzvahs, confuse the bar mitzvah boy, and leave presents.

The future's going to break through by nieded - Rated T

Series: 3 Works

My take on South Downs: Aziraphale and Crowley decide to become professors. This is inspired by the headcanon that Crowley has 20 different degrees. He is the Serpent of the Tree of Knowledge after all.

The Official Mr Fell Quarantine Thread by argentconflagration - Rated T

 It is with an exasperated sigh that I introduce you to an official thread for this guy. We've discussed it and we've decided that this is the only way we can stop you guys from derailing threads to complain about this guy. By mod decree, all Mr Fell complaining, griping, bitching, grousing, and miscellaneous butthurt now belongs in THIS THREAD AND THIS THREAD ONLY.

The forumgoers of The Codex, a forum for rare book hunters, come to some very interesting conclusions about the personal life of one Mr Fell of Soho. (Inspired by a tumblr post.)

Sleeping Like The Dead by WorseOmens - Not Rated

Aziraphale takes up the habit of sleeping, and goes a bit overboard. After all, with Crowley in bed beside him, why would he ever want to get up?

(Or: The ineffable husbands sleep for three months straight and the whole street thinks they're dead. NOT ANGSTY)

Unto the Whateverth Generation by AstroGirl - Rated T

When your family has been unsuccessfully trying to summon a demon for generations, it's bound to be a little bit of a shock when he actually shows up.  Especially for the demon. 

Chicken Soup for the Dudebro's Soul by ShinyHappyGoth - Rated T

Chanctonbury Ring, a prehistoric hill fort covered in beech trees, is a point of interest near Devil's Dyke on the South Downs. Local legend has it that, if you run around it seven times anticlockwise, the Devil will appear and offer you a bowl of soup in exchange for your soul.

Local legends are weird like that.

Like He Hung the Stars in the Sky by asideofourown - Rated T

“There’s so much you humans don’t understand about the universe, it’s not my fault that I do,” he said in a statement to BBC reporter Jane Smith.  “Just you wait!”

BREAKING: SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY IN DISARRAY AS NEWCOMER UPENDS DOZENS OF ACCEPTED THEORIES

Up and coming British astrophysicist Dr. Anthony J. Crowley has rocked the science world this week with his research that proves many previously-accepted scientific theories about dark matter and the nature of our universe completely wrong.  Dubbed the ‘Devil’s Theory,’ Crowley’s research has made the astrophysicist a star practically overnight, and one of the most sought-after scientists in the country.

[Crowley can't keep his mouth shut about the stars, and accidentally becomes a famous scientist.  Based on this!]

A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square by ThetaSigma - Rated T

Sam had settled into his job at the Ritz nicely. For example, no one there cared that his birth certificate listed him as Samantha and female and accepted him as Sam and male easily. It's a job he really loves, not least because his supervisor is possibly the nicest person to roam the Earth.

Sam also may be the first waiter in all of history to find out why the wine bottles fill up again when Aziraphale and Crowley have dined there.

***

 He discreetly cleared away the empty bottles on the table and went to put them in the recycling, same as he always did.

 Jim stopped him. “Not those bottles, son.”

 “But they’re just empty bottles, Jim. Nothing left.”

 “I know. But trust me. Cork them and put them back on the shelf, especially if those two ordered more than four bottles total.”

ok friends so i know we all joke about, like john mulaney and keanu reeves and hozier being immortals, but… i really think we gotta add anthony j. crowley to that list

thelongest27yearsofmylife reblogged and said:

Christ, Beth, Anthony Crowley is an increasingly popular, openly queer creator with explicitly queer rep in his work that’s really important to some people, can you not make this into a meme for ONCE in your life?

[Crowley accidentally gets a bit famous, and the internet figures out he may be a bit immortal]

The Cell Block Gavotte by WorseOmens - Not Rated

Crowley is forced to defend himself from three disgruntled demons in the heart of London, and that is really, really hard to explain in a human court of law.

(Or: Crowley goes to prison, and decides to just roll with it)

stand on the brink of the warm white day by appomattox - Rated T

hdjngjjbg you guys earlier i was waiting at the bus stop just outside a bookstore and the owner, a little upper-middle aged man who gives off immense gay vibes, walked by on his way in and just. handed me a bag of fun size almond joy????

Wherein: Aziraphale is a Confirmed Immortal.

Wilson & Sons by voidify - Rated G

Ever since its establishment in 1768, Wilson & Sons Barbershop had been a proud family business. Customers came and customers went— but there was one who had, apparently, been there since the very start: A.Z. Fell. 

it's a new craze by attheborder - Rated T

***

CROWLEY: I try not to make a habit of gratitude, but I must give our appreciation to everyone out there who’s been listening and subscribing to The Ineffable Plan.

AZIRAPHALE: Ooh, yes, we’ve become quite popular, haven’t we?

CROWLEY: Yeah, just hit number eight on the advice charts … No advertising at all.

AZIRAPHALE: Mm. How … miraculous.

CROWLEY: … Aziraphale. You did not.

Crowley and Aziraphale are very possibly the people least qualified, on the entire planet, to start up an advice podcast.

But what else is there to do when the world isn’t ending anytime soon, you’re technically on indefinite sabbatical from your lifelong careers, and you need a plausible excuse to spend more time with your best friend who you’re definitely not, absolutely not, maybe just a little, actually maybe overwhelmingly in love with?

Crowley Invented Youtube Recommended (Parsley, Thyme, Sage, Daffodils remix) by flibbertygigget - Rated T

After Aziraphale's video on crêpes makes it into Youtube recommendations through a little demonic intervention, he quickly goes viral. Cue college students just trying to make it work, a bunch of young queers who see A.Z. Fell and his husband Anthony as "goals," and quite a few comments from one Newton Pulsifer. 

The Art of Pretence by WitchFlame (RachelMcN) - Rated T

Playacting is an essential skill for a demon.

Especially when you get summoned by amateur witches with a thirst for power. Luckily, Crowley's silver tongue has always been his most versatile trait.

“You wrote the binding wrong,” the demon speaks and she jumps so harshly that her carefully cradled flask spills and smashes against the floor.

Anthony J. Crowley, Retired Demon and Airbnb Superhost by TheOldAquarian - Rated G

What are you supposed to do when you've been fired from your sweet job in Hell for thwarting the schemes of Satan, you've got a swanky flat in Mayfair, and you're looking for an excuse to spend all your time in someone else's bookshop? Obviously, you turn to the dubious world of short-term vacation rentals.

The resulting Airbnb property has been variously described as "an instagram trap," "a vampire den but make it botanical," and "the weirdest bed and breakfast in the shared history of beds and breakfasting."

what a way to make a living by attheborder - Rated T

Without any more assignments coming from Downstairs, Crowley is struck with a bad case of the doldrums.

It takes a bit of trial and error, but eventually a solution is found.

(Or: the one where Crowley becomes an Uber driver.)

Obligatory Introductory Post

Hello all, I am Engineer GunzelPunk. Pronouns They/Them. By my name, I'm an Australian railfan (a ''Gunzel" is a Australian term for a railfan used a lot in Victoria; it used to mean something similar in implication to 'otaku', ‘foamer’ or even "Queer" in the LGBT sense, but it's changed a bit since then), and think way too much about trains and the Railway Series/TTTE. Here is where I will dump all my odd train thoughts, art (OCs, redraws and other things), some videos and generally engage in nostalgia.

I simp really hard for Henry, the green Black Five. If there is a bit of an excess of Henry content, that is the reason why. I also simp for Victorian Railways locomotives. I do not apologize.

I may also indulge in a bit of TTTE AU (human-This Is Sodor: The Age of Iron)/ Red and Black Steam On Southern Metals (Victorian Railways RWS/TTTE AU/Extended Universe)/headcanoning from time to time.

THIS IS AN NSFW 18+ BLOG. DNI MINORS AND PEOPLE THAT DON'T LIKE ANY SORT OF ADULT CONTENT.

I will tag all "adult" topics appropriately for the benefit of everyone, as there will be some topics discussed on my blog such as death, funeral culture and its associated practices, criminality, obscure and bizarre magical philosophies or other such things that may offend or trigger.

Some of my fiction is spoken in my native tongue (liberal use of the word "cunt" will be the least of it). It will offend or be incomprehensible.

There may be gore, violence or drug references.

IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY SUCH CONTENT, TURN AROUND AND WALK.

DNI

Here is a list of tags you can put in your filter list:

#thomasallgrownup (for spicier TTTE or my other sentient train related content, mostly varying levels of Coarse Language and Adult Themes)

#gunzel speaks (for any particular thing I want to make an announcement for)

#cw gore

#cw violence

#cw suggestive

#cw language

#cw drug use

#cw alcohol use

This blog is LGBTQIA+ allied. NO APOLOGIES. All in the Queer community are welcome at Casa D'GunzelPunk.

It should go without saying but I'm going to anyway... NO TERFS, NO SWERFS, NO FASCISTS.

I don't want to single out Ace/Aros but all sexual content will be marked for your convenience, if you wish to proceed.

NO MINORS PLEASE. THIS IS AN ADULT BLOG.

This is for your own safety. There will be adult content here. Minors DNI.

MAPs GET THE FUCK OUT. NO PEDO REQUESTS. FUCK OFF.

Otherwise I just wanna have fun posting stuff. No Drama.

Now with all that out of the way, I shall introduce my GunzelVerse under the cut:

This Is Sodor: Iron Age (Gunzelverse human/transformation AU/EU branch)

“All things pass into the night...

Goodbye Horses! I’m flying over you…”, Q Lazzarus

The name the “Age Of Iron/Iron Age” is supposed to evoke the Ages of Metal in Classical thought, with the Golden Age being the best and the age of Iron the absolute nadir, a Dark Age. (Such phraseology is used in steam enthusiast culture with the term ‘Golden Age of Steam’ being a well worn phrase, so the reference to the ‘Iron Age’ is a darkly ironic answer to that.)

It's grimly ironic considering the primary metal that steam locomotives are made of and the fact that during the Lokodammerung ("Twilight of The Locomotives", my term for the mass locomotive scrappings during the Beeching Axe/Operation Phoenix), they were being reduced to this base component.

Given as the AU occurs during that particular Dark Age for locomotives, the 60’s and early 70s, I thought it would only be appropriate as a subtitle for it.

The locos when they become humanised start becoming wise to humans, what it is to be human and messing about with subcultures in vogue at the time (in Britain; Mods, Teddies, Rockers, Skinheads, Greasers, Hippies, Punks, etc, and in Australia; the Mods, Sharpies, Bodgies and Widgies etc.), for them its a second sort of adolescence where new info, new sensations flood their conciousness, new modes of being... and a potent new weapon in their survival against the scrappings.

#GunzelVerse# This Is Sodor: Iron Age#ttte humanisation#ttte gijinka#thomasallgrownup

Red And Black Steam On Southern Metals (Victorian Railways AU/EU)

The Island Of Sodor isn’t the only place with non-faceless vehicles.

On the other side of the world, on a railway network the size of Great Britain and every Victorian human is no more then 25 kms away from a railway line; the steam locomotives of the Victorian Railways live and work.

They breathe and suffer and love like humans; from Newport Works where many locomotives were built, to the notorious soot-caked North Melbourne Loco Depot and the 1-30 slopes of the high country at Cudgewa, known as ‘K-class Country’, and the ever stylish Spirit of Progress and The Overland; when the Oz version of the Beeching Axe and Lokodammerung strike their Broad Gauge fiefdom, their world is upended forever.

And the survivors must carry on as best they can.

This is an Extended/Alternative Universe existing parallel with the Island of Sodor and overlapping with This is Sodor: Iron Age, though the sweep of time is longer. It will feature humanisation.

The 'Red and Black' of the title refers to two common liveries, black for goods work, red for passenger work during the active days of the VR (with plenty of variation such as the blue and gold "Spirit of Progress" livery of the S-class Pacifics).

It will feature OCs of mine based on real life locomotives like VR Pocono H220 ‘Heavy Harry’, Hudson R707 ‘City Of Melbourne’ (but here called ‘Cerberus’), A2 4-6-0 No 986 (in this universe, ‘Pluto’) and others. And there will be some reference to real life personages.

These are fictional representations of locos and humans and no comment is to be inferred from them, or offense intended in their depiction.

There will be very heavy coarse language (like I said in my intro, the word ‘cunt’ being used will be the least of it) and adult themes, and be written in the Australian vernacular.

A lot of it will jump time as the mood takes me. They will be dated if possible.

OC Profiles below:

VR A2 4-6-0 No 986 "Spirit of Warrigul" aka "Pluto"

VR H-Class Pocono H220 "Heavy Harry"

Cheers!

history: 

Growing up with Stolas was actually a pain. Aside from being the product of her mother’s infidelity, she had to deal with a brother who didn’t like to give her the time of day. It wasn’t like she asked to be born, or really to even exist the way she did. But alas, the boy felt to remind her every chance he got that she wasn’t really part of the family. Surprisingly though, Mr. Summerfield treated her better than he did Stolas. He was more interactive with her life and gave her almost anything she wanted. It was because of that Nadine had the chance to learn to play multiple instruments, have her own library of books (that she has read all of), any clothing piece she wanted and so on. She was spoiled, yes, but that didn’t effect her views of the family she was in. She watched Stolas beg for a single ounce of attention, affection, anything from him. Listened to the shouting, the glass breaking, the crying. A part of her wondered what it would have been like had she lived with her biological father and if all families were like this. Nadine was thankful to be at Hogwarts. A lot of her time spent in the library when she wasn’t in class, to avoid Stolas of course. She strived for perfect marks, not that anyone forced her. The girl loved to learn, loved to escape reality within pages, loved to be alone. She was able to be someone else, thankfully, using her biological father’s last name. Had people known she was a sister to Stolas she wasn’t sure how that would play out. But she knew he wanted nothing to do with her so she obliged, even when he got into fights with a supposed friend of his. After Hogwarts she left as soon as she could. Traveling for a few years before she started to do concerts. Nadine didn’t like being the center of attention but she loved to play and she wanted people to hear the music, to enjoy it the way she had. Now, she’s on break from a tour and finally decided to revisit home, Diagon, Hogsmeade.

Prem Mein Dhokha: Pyar Mein Dhoka Shayari ki Kala"

Manav bhavnaon ke kashmakash mein, prem anand aur dukh ke beech ek sukshmatam seema par chalta hai. Jab prem anjaane mod par dhokha mein badal jaata hai, tab Pyar Mein Dhoka Shayari ki kavitaon ka kala aur gehra moolya samne aata hai, jo dil ke todne ke saath judi hui bhavnayein vyakt karta hai.

Pyar Mein Dhoka Shayari ki har pankti ek dhokhe se bhari prem kahani sunati hai. Kavi vyaktiyo ke sambandhon ki jaal bhari bhavanaon mein kushal se ghataate hain, layapoorvak aur vyaktigat bhasha ka istemaal karke. Is kalaatmak aur sundar bhasha ka upayog karke ve ek tasveer tairte hain, jisme dard, nirasha aur dil tootne ke saath judi gehrayaiyan prastut hoti hain.

Pyar Mein Dhoka Shayari ka saundarya usmein chhupi dil ke dard ko kavitayein banakar vyakt karne ki kshamata mein hai. Yeh ek cathartic madhyam ban jaata hai, jisme vyakti apne antaratma ke bhavnayein vyakt kar sakte hain aur vyakti kaatil shabdon mein vyakti pa sakte hain.

Ant mein, Pyar Mein Dhoka Shayari ka mahatva uski kavitaon mein chhupi kshamata mein chhupa hua hai. Yeh na keval dhokhe ka dard vyakt karta hai, balki samajhne aur guzharne ka ek madhyam bhi pradan karta hai. Iski panktiyan, Pyar Mein Dhoka Shayari ko samayik banati hain jo prem se dhokha tak ka gahra anubhav karte hain, aur prem ke complexity ko ek eloquent aur vyaktigat kala rup mein badal deti hai.

[corianderclangen]

Corianderclan and Hareclan had an aggressive history, with many deadly wars that ended up in mass chaos between the five clans. In one particularly fatal war, Corianderclan lowers to a population of twenty-two cats, and Hareclan reigns victorious. In their defeat, Corianderclan is chased out from the lands and is forced to walk to a new home. Along the way, many fatalities occur from the extreme temperatures, starvation, and predators. The remaining ten cats find a peaceful beach and set up a new home. A new Corianderclan.

Then suddenly beech woods, all green behind the dozing eyes  a deer leaps across the forest road  scents of acid and moss and cheek against bark, sunrain  between trunks, I’m home and hear the Baltic Sea  crash against big rocks far away and I rest like a  fairy or a witch in the sweet smells of the forest floor  we can so easily forget what we are who we are  that we are, but it takes only a little call  to waken the sleepers, as now, in the forest, for  LISTEN, isn’t that song and the chiming of goblets  sounding in the green chambers? YES by golly, a celebration  for the child in his seventeenth year, who never has  been happier and never will be happier; the world shimmers  everything unimaginably possible while a handspring  and a new but not disturbing sensitivity have settled  in the middle of his irresistibly marzipanescent  body. 

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Alting Blinker

Så pludselig bøgeskov, helt grønt bag de blundende øjne  en hind springer over den stampede jordvej  her lugter af syre og mos og kinden mod bark, solregn  mellem stammer, jeg er hjemme og hører Østersøen  slå mod store sten langt borte er jeg hvilende som en  fe eller en heks i skovbundens dufte  vi kan så let glemme at vi er dem vi er  at vi er, men der skal bare et lille signal til  at vække den slumrende, som nu, i skoven, for  HØR NU er det ikke sang og bægerklang  der lyder i de grønne sale? JO, et gilde sørme  for barnet i sit syttende år, der aldrig har  haft det bedre og aldrig får det bedre; verden blinker  alting ufatteligt muligt mens et kraftspring  og en ny men ikke forstyrrende følsomhed har slået sig ned  midt i den uimodståeligt marcipanemmende  krop.

Blowtorch, updated for Lovestruck (EP16)

Maxi's worlds emptied of era specific stuff – made for simmers who wants themed hoods of their choice.

Now updated for EP 16 - Lovestruck

So, you found T.O.O.L, the super useful mod by Twisted Mexi, and learned how to decorate your sim world.

But there is this problem with Maxis houses and items, which do NOT fit in your sim world. So far, the most used method has been to hide them, as in either move them away (if even possible) from sight or use a hider/override to make them invisible. That method has its limits, is very tedious (need to find, make an override, ect. , and there are SO MANY items)

Blowtorch has another approach. It takes out the items (houses, vehicles, modern deco, well - all silly deco really) from the world. You can then place nicer deco or game items instead.

The items are not hidden from catalogue, so you can place the same items back but in a different place if you so wish. Or use cc deco. Make the world medieval, or Victorian, or sci-fi, or whatever.

HOW DOES THIS WORK?

This mod edits the preloaded deco in the world. It changes game files – and the changes will affect all your saves, old and new. If you decide that you want the deco back, you can do it either with the GAME REPAIR function or using the backup of the original folders that I included in the mods folders. If you do that, all your saves will have the original deco back.

You can either use all my edited files – or the ones you want. If you for example want Willow Creek to be as it always has, but want a blowtorched Oasis Springs, just delete the Willow Creek files before installation, and keep Oasis Springs.

I have blowtorched almost all the hoods in the worlds, both EP and GP: s (See list below for exceptions.) If you don’t have all EP/GP I recommend to delete the ones you don’t have before installing.

(Save the zip with the mod somewhere safe so you can add new worlds when you add a new EP/GP with a world.)

Here are some general rules I went by:

- All landmarks, architecture deco, street deco, vehicles, with special effects - blowtorched

- Functional objects: outside tables, playground items, and such – blowtorched. Place them again where you want them!

- All lights, both streetlights and built in hood lights, blowtorched.

- All palm trees, ever pink trees, wispy modern beeches, and other modern plants, blowtorched. (I of course kept the palm trees in Sulani and Selvadorada)

- ALMOST ALL THESE THINGS (not the built in lights) are still available in the catalog (debug, live edit) items though. So, if you still want a modern, but DIFFERENT hood, you can place them again, as you want them. This is a big advantage compared to hiders – those usually hide the items also from the catalogue.

- Visual effects belonging to vehicles and other stuff mentioned above, blowtorched. No modern yachts, no airplanes.

- The lights are gone. The world will be dark at night if you don’t place streetlights or such.

WHAT I KEPT

I kept the seasons stalls, where they are available (if you have the Seasons EP.) They can also be placed, but as they are in conditional layers (changes with the seasons) this can't be done by placing them manually.

I kept all spawners. All the fishing spots and all the bugs, frogs, dig sites, wild growing plants.

Lighting mod included

This mod also includes the Sunblind lighting mod by Softerhaze. Lighting mods also change these files, so I added Sunblind with the creator's permission.

This updated version includes the update from Softerhaze after EP 16.

https://softerhaze.itch.io/sunblind?download Read more here!

(You do not need to download or install the mod; it is included in the Blowtorch mod.)

If you want another lighting mod or no lighting mod, you need to edit the files manually.

This is done by replacing the resources “Sky Box Texture Data” and “World Timeline Color”.

ECO LIFESTYLE NOTE!

Unfortunately the Evergreen Harbor world that came with Eco Lifestyle (EP 9) has some special evil magic and the deco needs hiders anyway. If you play with that world and want it to be BLOWTORCHED, install the file ELHoodHidersMerged in your Mods folder.

Other recommended mods:

Check out T.O.O.L and Twisted Mexis other mods here: https://twistedmexi.com/Mods/

To add deco stuff outside lots:

T.O.O.L – at Tmexis page you also find information about his CAW-project, still in alpha testing.

I also recommend his Better Build/Buy mod, and his toggle mods, especially the Strangerville Story Toggle on if you want to use Strangerville as a normal world. And also his that enabled build/buy on the Secret Lab lot – in new saves.

Zerbu has a couple of super useful mods:

All Worlds are Residential https://zerbu.tumblr.com/post/173398784785/the-sims-4-mod-all-worlds-are-residential

Venue changes https://zerbu.tumblr.com/post/160347810775/the-sims-4-mod-venue-changes

Twelfth Doctor has a great mod for travelling to all the hidden/special lots, so you can edit them: https://td1sims.tumblr.com/post/635457539495084032/travel-to-venue

This mod is also useful if when you work with TOOL: Clickable worlds by Awingedlama

Q&A about Blowtorch mod

1. Can I use this on my old saves?

Answer: Yes. The mod does not affect the saves, or your CC, or anything other than the game files in the Windows directory. You can easily uninstall the mod by using the backup files (included) or do a Game Repair.

2. Why are there stuff not deleted? Annoying modern fences in Windenburg Ugly Modern Business district, for example?

Answer: some items are a part of the world mesh and is not yet possible to edit. If there will be a solution later, I will update the mod.

3. Will I have to update the mod after patches and new expansions?

Answer: Probably, but not always. When you load the game after the patch, you will see if the original deco is there. If so, re-install. If the patch/ep/GP does not include a new world, you just reinstall the mod (see instructions below) as you installed it the first time. I will make updated versions asap when new worlds are released.

4. I don’t have EP X or Y – can I use the Blowtorch mod?

Answer: Yes, but I recommend deleting the folders for EP/GP you don’t have. See list in the PDF-file with documentation.

Where to find nice themed hood deco to use with Blowtorch?

You can basically use any item, from game or CC, to decorate hoods. Try out the options with T.O.O.L to change the size of objects!

I already posted some Hood Deco CC – and I have much more to come. I have been converting/editing/creating and preparing hood deco from Sims Medieval, Sims 2 and Sims 3 and other games – my CC is medieval/historical themed but I hope for other creators to add to the hood deco options in the future.

Note: I now have all the files for download on my Dropbox. They are in a couple of zips. The main one contains a folder called "The Sims 4" which contains the modded files.

The Backup files - you don't DO anything with them, if you don't want to uninstall the mod. You can also use Repair game in Origin/EA App, it does the same thing.

I suggest you unzip the files to a folder somewhere to have if you need to reinstall the mod or the original files.

Dont forget to also download, read and save the PDF Documentation-file :)

If you have difficulties with the installation, please DM me and I will help.

Optional: Installer Script (for Windows only)!

This clever script from @tricoufamily can be used for an easy install of the Blowtorch-files (which include the Sunblind light mod)!

Like this:

Download the Sunblind Installer (link to creators page with download link)

Click on the file and open it, a text file opens which you can edit.

Check the path to the gamefiles. If you use the EA App, it should be: "C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 4"

Now edit the path to where your Blowtorch files are located, for example: "C:\Users\$env:USERNAME\Documents\Blowtorch\The Sims 4"

Now click on the script file (run it with Power Shell), and it will install Blowtorch. Note: Always read the instructions also for Blowtorch in general.

My Empty Save File - Start Fresh!

I also updated my Empty Save to include Ciudad Amorada with a builder sim.

Download Blowtorch here:

Satta King Ki Gufayein Khuli: Utsav Aur Khatre"

SattaKing ke romanchak vishwa mein teji se amir banne aur arthik patan ke chhipe hue khatron ke beech ek bahut dhyan se rakha gaya santulan hai. Is blog post mein "Satta King Ki Gufayein Khuli" ke raaz ko samjhne ka prayas kiya gaya hai, jahan khiladiyon ko khinchti hai utsav aur un logon ko dar lata hai jo is uchch-dastaankari sankhyaon ka khel khelne ke liye himmat karte hain.

Teji Se Amir Banne Ka Akarshan

Satta King, jiska vaada hai ki vishesh bhugtan ki badi raashi jeetne ka, isme ek akarshan hai jo kathin hai roka ja sakta hai. Khiladiyon ko umeed hai ki vah ek seema-baad shart ko ek raat mein ek dhan banane ka mauka mil jaayega. Bade jeetne ka utsav ek sireen ki awaaz hai jo Satta King ke vishwa mein bahut se logon ko bulaata hai.

Anishchay Ki Utsav

Satta King ke mool mein anishchay hai. Bilkul ek thrilling rollercoaster ride ki tarah, yeh khiladiyon ko aniyamit mod aur morchon ki yatra par le jaata hai. Ant tak parinaam nahi pata chalne ka romanch us adrenalin ko teji se dhadakne mein rokta hai.

Ranniti Ka Nritya

Satta King ke peeche ek ranniti ka nritya hai. Khiladi purane parinaamon ka vivaran karte hain, rujhanon ka adhyayan karte hain, aur safalta ki sambhavnaon ko badhane ke liye vibhinn takneek ka istemal karte hain. Yeh ek khel hai jo samvedansheeli aur buddhimaan hone ki zaroorat hai.

Uchch-Dastaankari Khatre

Sabhi utsavon ke liye, Satta King mein mahatvapurn khatra hai. Khel ki anishchayata ka matlab hai ki khiladi aasani se jeetne ke liye jitna aasani se har sakte hain. Khiladiyon ke liye jinhone dhyan se nahi khela, unke liye arthik patan ek asli khatra hai.

Andhkaar Ki Or

Satta King ke akarshan ke paas ek andhkaar bhi hai. Yeh vyasan, arthik samasyaayein aur tanav se le kar tanav bhari rishte tak le ja sakta hai. Haar ke piche bhagte hue girne ka khatra hamesha maujood hai, aur yeh woh khai hai jisme bahut se log ghir jaate hain.

Jimmewaar Khelna

Satta King ke vishwa mein surakshit tarike se taalne ke liye samvedansheel khelana mahatvapurn hai. Seemaayein tay karna, dhan ko samajhdar tarike se prabandhit karna, aur khatre ko pehchaanne ke liye zaroori kadam hain. Samvedansheel khelana yeh sunishchit karta hai ki Satta King ke utsav ko bhaari bhaari hone se bachaya ja sakta hai.

Nikhaar Aur Sawdhani: Utsav Aur Khatre

"Satta King Ki Gufayein Khuli" ek uchch-dastaankari sankhyaon ke khel ke is apoorva vishwa ke do pehluo ko roshni daal raha hai. Jabki teji se amir banne ka akarshan aur anishchay ki utsav asweekar nahi hain, ve ek keemat par aate hain. Khiladiyon ko dhyan se chalna chahiye, samajhna chahiye ki Satta King ke utsav aur khatre ek hi sikke ke do pehlu hain. Yeh ek khel hai jahan palak jhapakne mein dhan ki arjit ho sakti hai ya bigad sakti hai, isliye yeh ek uchch-dastaankari lekin khatakne wala safar hai risk aur puraskar ki duniya mein.

This Is Sodor: Iron Age (Gunzelverse human/transformation AU/EU branch)

“All things pass into the night...

Goodbye Horses! I’m flying over you…”, Q Lazzarus

The name the “Age Of Iron/Iron Age” is supposed to evoke the Ages of Metal in Classical thought, with the Golden Age being the best and the age of Iron the absolute nadir, a Dark Age. (Such phraseology is used in steam enthusiast culture with the term ‘Golden Age of Steam’ being a well worn phrase, so the reference to the ‘Iron Age’ is a darkly ironic answer to that.)

It's grimly ironic considering the primary metal that steam locomotives are made of and the fact that during the Lokodammerung ("Twilight of The Locomotives", my term for the mass locomotive scrappings during the Beeching Axe/Operation Phoenix), they were being reduced to this base component.

Given as the AU occurs during that particular Dark Age for locomotives, the 60’s and early 70s, I thought it would only be appropriate as a subtitle for it.

The locos when they become humanised start becoming wise to humans, what it is to be human and messing about with subcultures in vogue at the time (in Britain; Mods, Teddies, Rockers, Skinheads, Greasers, Hippies, Punks, etc, and in Australia; the Mods, Sharpies, Bodgies and Widgies etc.), for them its a second sort of adolescence where new info, new sensations flood their conciousness, new modes of being... and a potent new weapon in their survival against the scrappings.
