To all simmers who share freely...

A heartfelt thank you to all of you who share love and amazing content, be it CC, stories, comments, ideas, gameplay or whatever comes to your creative minds - and all for free!

A community thrives from sharing and interacting. You are the ones who turn this into a community and a wonderful place to browse, chat, help, and giggle. You are the reason I am still here and enjoying this special space.

Thank you!

All in one post...

Thank you for the tags for doing the 24 pictures for 2024 thingie - sadly I didn't post that often, so there is nothing to see here… I'll just add some screenshots from my hard drive. But this might be something of a resolution for 2025 which I also got tagged for: to post more? To play more? Definitely on my wishlist for the upcoming year.

And it's also more than high time to thank all those lovely people who put nice messages in my inbox in 2024, which each should receive a proper reply, but that's something I am notoriously bad at.

So this maybe is more of an appreciation post for all the kind simmers who thought of me in the past year. Thank you for that and for making my days brighter!

I won't tag anyone to do anything special as I am way too late to the party as usual. But share away if you feel like it!

It is indeed! ❤️

hello i really liked the method about the DXVK because i wanna fix the lag and memory crash's and freeze in my game, but i have a question when u said about (-1) do i need to put -1 in both like should i write (-1) in first line and the seconed line ?

Hi! Before you try (-1) which means to not limit MemCacheBudget, have you tried (high) values? Like those for 1 or 2 GB? Maybe try those before experimenting.

Also, can't say if you should enter the (-1) in both lines. As far as I know the value in the first line should be higher or equal the value in the second line. I guess that's where the experimenting begins...

Maybe someone who reads this has a more informed reply?

It looks so tranquil 😍

The new day was warm, crisp and cloudless. After some more melon slices as breakfast, Captain Beaudard went off for a little exploring of his own. Fallonfuchs had run to the north the day before, he went west.

A cloudless day always held the promise to turn into a cloudless night. His stars might be revealed, and finally offer him a clue of where they had stranded.

He wished he had his looking glass, though. To search the horizon too. But it had to be done with the naked eye, squinting.

The island was beautiful. As was the empty horizon. One steady, calm line.

At camp, Lady Aerdenwald paced the beach. She felt uneasy with the Captain gone. Yet, from the corner of her eye, she could see him run in the distance, and halt, look about him, and run again. He would never leave her view. And somehow, she suspected he did that on purpose. For her. Just like he'd made sure she'd got some rest that night, on the logs, taking turns with the children. In between her naps she had seen some of the men sleep on the beach sand, but he had always sat near her on the cowhide, looking at the clouds high above. He kept watch.

It was as if Captain Beaudard remembered the promise he made to her father, all by himself.

UPDATE

Reblogging this because I noticed the DL link would give you the world file and nothing else. Not sure when or how that happened, as this has been out for more than 4 years now and no one complained. So I just hope for the best. Anyway.

Tldr: Download link has been updated to include the world as sims3pack, world file, CC and information!

Today I’m happy to release Praaven Reworked, a new version of Praaven by jje1000/potato-ballad-sims, edited by Simsmidgen and me. As usual this project took longer than expected. But with the help of our many fantastic testers all is well that ends well.

Simsmidgen and I tweaked some things more to our liking, replaced broken CC, reduced the overall amount of required CC, recoloured EA objects and/or replaced them, fixed major routing issues, reduced world file size, replaced/fixed all those bloody arches and stacked staircases, thinned spawners, improved terrain painting (at least we think so). We added the two festival lots by lowrisim and tweaked them a bit and also made sure that the tomb can be solved (yes, there is a tomb, go looking for it!). We tried to leave the world as original as possible though (apart from the things that didn’t work well). Public release is with permission of potato-ballad-sims.

Hello, dear Nornities. I have a question about CAW. If I create a road texture using CC and share it, will the CC texture be reflected? (Sorry if this is a strange sentence)

Hello :)

If you use custom textures for roads in CAW, those will be included in the world you export. It will show up in your world. So no need for a player to download the custom textures separately.

I hope this answers your question! If not, please send me a message :)

Actually not only for Absolute Beginners 😉 And even though it just turned 5 it's still worth a look. If I say so myself. I see many questions asked over and over again when the answers are right here. (And yes, still working on that website. The century isn't over yet, so stay tuned!)

CAW for Absolute Beginners – a guide

It took me long enough, but I made a guide for CAW for those of you who always wanted to try to build your own worlds for Sims 3 but never knew where to start. And for those of you who tried but got frustrated because information is hard to find, outdated or just doesn’t cover what you were looking for.

For now it’s a PDF for you to download. And maybe sometime in this century it will be turned into a website for better navigation. Stay tuned! And don’t hesitate to ask if you have questions!
