Regarding the current state of Sims 4:

It's going to get to a point where it will be required to only load certain - and sparse - packs when playing Sims 4, if not the case already. The problem with that is 1) the game is boring and shallow and less packs means even more boring gameplay and 2) the way EA cut and dispersed gameplay across packs also means that some functionality of key features, including toddlers and family gameplay and milestones, will be lacking/missing entirely without certain packs installed. We do indeed have a pack that's useless without another pack (looking at you My First Pet).

This game was never meant to be so expanded upon. Had they not cut so many packs into 74 or so DLC, not only would the game be easier to test across all life stages and with all packs, but we wouldn't have so much weighing down the game and breaking it beyond the stage of even being playable. The bottom line is that greed got in the way of common sense and quality.

This game is essentially going up in flames. Modders alone are what's keeping this game afloat, but for console players....what's the answer here? Modders should not be responsible for making a game simply work as intended. I'm seeing videos of people hyping up what could be coming packs. I don't see why anyone cares at all at this point. People saying they now wait until packs go on sale don't seem to realize that either way, buying is buying. Paying for broken packs and endless bugs is outrageous, whether it's at full price or 50% off.

I don't see how this can get any better. The rate at which packs are released compared to the rate at which bugs are fixed is not balancing; we still have packs that do not work without mods, and with every buggy patch those essential mods get broken. It's just a train wreck, man. I don't see how more people aren't livid at this point.

Why is the Sims community boycotting Curseforge?

I've seen a lot of posts going around calling on Simmers to stop using Curseforge, a modding platform that enables creators to monetize their downloads, with plenty of outrage directed toward modders and CC-makers who are still on the platform. But I've also seen a lot of people who are confused about why there are calls for a boycott.

Curseforge is owned by Overwolf, a company that is donating money to the IDF in support of its ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people.

In late October/early November, Overwolf posted a graphic on their social media asking followers to "defend our defenders" by contributing financially to a fundraising drive for the IDF. They were met with backlash and quickly took the graphic down, replacing it with one that used language about raising money for "those effected by the violence in Gaza" (my phrasing may be inexact) but the money is still going to the IDF and not to any agency actually supporting civilians or doing humanitarian work.

You can see the original graphic on this change.org petition, which provides some additional context.

If you are using Curseforge in any way -- by hosting your content there or downloading from it -- you are giving money to a company that is raising funds for an ongoing military campaign against a civilian population.

This is why people are calling for a boycott. If you are a modder or CC maker for the Sims, you should remove all of your content from the website and redirect people to other DL sources. If you are a consumer of mods and CC, you should stop clicking curseforge links and send (polite!) messages to modders and CC makers to urge them to pull their content from the site.

[uncharmedlife]

is it just me or do creators make their cc so overwhelmingly complicated that you no longer want to download their stuff? its just link after link that takes you to 5000+ plus more links and wtf am I even looking at anymore? none of it makes sense and at this point I forgot what I was doing

[uncharmedlife]

Damn I should really start working on my sim story fr *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shit* *doesnt do shi

Hello!

You can call me Kiwi, I'm a simmer who has been playing since Ts1. I don't particularly enjoy building, so I rely on others, but I've noticed lately it's hard to get good vanilla builds. This is especially true after the latest updates to the gallery. I'm hoping this blog will provide a resource for others to find public CC-free builds, and serve also as a compliment to other blogs that focus also on builds or strictly cc free things!

Feel free to @publicvanillabuilds if you would like to be reblogged. I will do so as long as: 1. It is available to the public. I do not reblog early access or ad-links 2. It is completely cc-free

PSA Regarding Hateful Anons

Tumblr recently made it a requirement for you to be logged in to send asks anonymously. If you receive a hateful ask, don’t publish it - report it to Tumblr. It can be traced back to the user that sent it and with enough reports that person’s account will be suspended.

Share to raise awareness but also to make the clowns who think this behaviour is acceptable think twice before acting brave behind the guise of invisibility.

Important! Sims 4 cas.fulleditmode bug

If you have the new Sims 4 EP Growing Together, you need to know that there's a bug with cas.fulleditmode and Sims with added traits (beyond the basic 3 traits). If you trigger this bug, all your household Sims will have the same name and your CAS UI will be corrupted. Worse, this bug can spread to other Saves.

Read:

the bug report on AHQ: If you have experienced this bug, please "me too" the thread.

Crinrict's blog post about the bug

You can avoid this bug:

Back up your saves outside the game folder before you play. Make this a habit. Don't rely on an automated online backup (like Drive) to do this; there are known issues with this.

Save before entering cas.fulleditmode. That way, when you do the next thing, you haven't lost a lot of gameplay. You might be fine if you're not touching Traits in CAS, but play safe!

If you encounter the bug in CAS, exit without saving.

Before you open a new save, exit and restart the start.

There is not a mod for this bug. When this bug is resolved, I'll updated this post.
