First Call, Sims 4 Infants Patch is Coming Soon!!

(graphic credit: Bonxie)

It's almost time, the Infants are Coming!! Before the patch on March 14 breaks mods and custom content in preparation for the March 16 Sims 4 Growing Together expansion pack, I thought I'd run through a few things you'll need to know about, ahead of time.

When you load up after the patch, Mods and CC are going to be disabled by EA. This is fine, we're expecting a lot of things to break, and this time, it most likely will include MCCC.

We on Deaderpool's Discord recommend taking all of your mods/cc OUT, not leaving them sitting "turned off" (disabled) in your Mods folder. There's no guarantee the game can't see them anyway, so for the cleanest test, we always say to move the files out into a folder on the Desktop. You need this "game only" benchmark to see how things are supposed to behave, or to see if what isn't working properly is a problem in the game code, itself. 

Most of the time, we would actually recommend a "mc-vanilla" test, which means to ONLY leave MCCC in your mods folder... but in the case of a Big Patch, until Deaderpool has a chance to evaluate (and hotfix) MCCC for code changes that might cause the mod to give you unexpected issues in game, "true vanilla" (mod/cc free) would be where to start testing.

By the way, if you need help getting your files organized ahead of the patch, you can find a downloadable Mods folder template here, courtesy of Shino Nox.

Without benefit of MCCC's mc_lastexception.html error file to help dig for errors, once you have your game-only test run completed, the next thing to do would be a 50/50. Make a copy of your save file, to safeguard against accidentally saving while your mods and cc are not in the game. (Don't worry, if you DO happen to save your main file this way, just come right away and ask us on Discord how to recover from it.)

One tip we've learned over the years is that you might be able to rule out entire sections of files with two basic tests: 

One test with all of your cc & no mods (except MCCC, as long as it's working properly)

One test with all of your script/game-changing mods, and none of your extra custom content. (You would need to keep all of a mod's pieces together, both ts4script and package files.)

If either test results in any kind of error, you'll need to drill down through those files with the 50/50 technique, to find what's broken.

Luth's forum posts and Scarlet's mod list are both excellent resources. You may notice I'm not linking to any specific forum post. The reason is, Luth/luthienrising starts new patch threads in the section I did link, as needed. You'll be able to spot it once she has created it.

Last month, our team on Discord celebrated our sixth anniversary of helping players.  Don't panic once the patch is live, just swing by and see us for help.  If you can't get in, because you've been banned for some reason, our appeal process is outlined here. 

Most questions you might have are probably answered in the #server-info channel. PLEASE read it, before approaching us in support. It will make everything easier, for both of us. 

Thanks for your time, and, good luck with the patch!!

friend I remember you from Instagram tell me about your robot game pleaseeeeee

My robot game!!

Scrapped was originally something I made for some art history kinda class (not the game history class, but we did look at games and other media in it. But was the same teacher as the game history. She’s a prick)

The final project was to make just. Anything based on one of the topics we discussed in class. So I decided to make a loose game concept based around general overconsumption, and the weird need in capitalism to constantly buy the newest products that normally lose their quality and break faster an faster.

So for the first concept sketches made, two versions of the same robot were made, the boxy lookin thing that’s got an assortment of mixed parts. Then the sleek round robot, with all the uniform parts you’d expect to see on every other version of its model. Think Wall-e and Eve The "box robots", B0N-1X // B0N-X1 [Bonix // Bonxi]

The idea was that the player would be offered two paths of either scrambling around for loose scrap they’d find in the environment or would get by breaking down the glunk bots (small npc bots), and trading the scrap in for cash in order to buy whichever upgrades needed when a part broke.

Or to take the path where the player can level up their skills and learn to just fix themselves when damaged, being able to level up through fixing up the same glunk bots that you could destroy for a quick coin.

(I ended up just making an essay for that history class, cause as I said the teacher was a prick and I just wanted a decent grade then making another game I actively enjoyed and worked hard on just to get another C on. Still bitter about that)

The only other character in that original group of sketches was Veldrin, who was just “the shopkeeper robot who teaches the player how to fix things” for the longest time. (Wanted to make big ol burly robot with the animated dad moustache) I also gave him a cat cause it’s kinda fun to have this big gruff ol guy and to give them the tinniest lil pet. As said, the cats name is Rob, and Veldri n named the shop after her (Robo n Robs Bits n Bobs). Hes honestly the character I’ve developed the most out of everyone.

that's most of the beginning stuff I made for this game. I've since developed more characters and story behind them. Gave Bonix a proper reason to their character, and why you're able to upgrade them as easily as you can as the player.

Largely because of how my classes were structured last year, a good chunk of recent development was focused on the environment of the game and more with world building. [most of my classes were environment illustration, this year is character design though, so we'll see what happens.]

took my time to reaspond to this, but it lined up with being posted for robot week! and I call that a win.

[skuaclan]

I'm sorry- but when I first saw your clan name, I had to do a double take before losing my shit laughing,

Context- I'm polish and I've never heard the word 'skua' and thought it was 'suka' which literally translates to bitch.

AND I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT FOR LIKE A GOOD FEW MINUTES 😭😭😭😭😭 I GENUINELY THOUGHT THAT YOUR CLAN IS CALLED 'BITCH-CLAN'

LMFAOOOOSJDKF it's on me for picking a slightly obscure bird i think, a skua is a big seabird- i know they're also called bonxies or jaegers in some places and probably have a bunch of other regional or different linguistic names. that is a very funny lookalike name though 😭 i'm sorry for any confusion hdjfklshl

Another new skull you say? Well check this one out!

Its a Great Skua!

Unfortunately these took a pretty hard hit in the early stages of Avian Flu presumably from feeding on the carcasses of already deceased birds.

This one came from Scotland, where most of the breeding population resides and they are a fantastic bird! Theyre also known as Bonxie which is thought to be due to thier size and stature. According to Wikipedia they can be compared to Buzzards which isnt much of a surprise given that they are around Herring Gull size, especially since they have impressive white wing markings.

They're bold and brassy and apparently pretty intense, dive bombing anyone who dares to get too close to nests and willingly harasses other birds to steal thier meals. They will eat just about any meat going, lets not forget they're a predatory species so feed on other birds too. Including the unusual feeding on Leach's Petrels at night on St Kilda.

These birds over winter in northwest African and southern Europe. I wonder how many survived to make it there, and how many will make it back.

Stornoway - Dig The Mountain! Ganze acht Jahre, eine Trennung und die darauffolgende Wiedervereinigung waren nötig für Stornoway, um ein neues Album zu veröffentlichen. Die englische Band hat sich vorsichtig wieder herangetastet und dann gemerkt: Die Lust ist noch da. 2015 erschien “Bonxie“, das sich kurze Zeit später als vorerst letztes Album herausstellen sollte: Im Herbst 2016 gab das Trio bekannt, nach einer Abschiedstour im Jahr darauf getrennte Wege zu gehen. Stornoway schienen Geschichte zu sein. 2022 aber das Update: Die Folk-Pop-Band steht wieder zusammen auf der Bühne. Lediglich für Konzerte habe man sich wiedervereinigt – dennoch war die Hoffnung immer groß und auch oft […] https://www.musikblog.de/2023/10/stornoway-dig-the-mountain/ #Stornoway #Album #Folk #FolkPop #IndiePop

The Road You Didn’t Take

And i didn’t take the road covered in traffic noise and the call of an old dream

(and so nobody should be stuck in traffic on that road)

but i did choose the road that leads into the inner silence of the heart in the great alone (A protected space to first meet in thought)

the 9th track

Heart of the Great Alone

(as a gentle bird of instrumental thought these words are sent out to find & be found)

A pure dream “reborn”
