BEWARE OF SIMS USED WITH CRYSTAL CREATIONS
Are you getting this LE? Here's what I have found out from personal testing.
Background: I started getting the LE above after adding the townies for my upcoming drag show to my game. I tracked the issue down to a sim that had jewelry and hidden gameplay traits from the Crystal Creations pack.
Shout out to @toastie-sim for all the troubleshooting suggestions! 💕
Troubleshooting and Things I learned:
Disabling the pack stopped the LE, however, upon re-enabling the pack the issue continued, although I had done a Save As to remove all the Crystal Creations content.
The issue spread to other active households and LOTS as I played them
Bulldozing the affected lots did not stop the LE
Deleting the initial sim and household that caused the LE did not stop LE from continuing to popping up in the households and lots that the issue had spread to
Using MCCC to empty the affected sims household and personal inventories did not stop the LE.
Issue can be caused by trayfiles or sims downloaded from the gallery
Solution:
“Saving” the sims: Using MCCC, I was able to copy and paste the initially affected sim onto a new sim so I could use them without continuing to get an LE. I copied them from a version I had saved with the pack disabled (that way they were not wearing any of the Crystal Creations jewelry and they did not have any hidden traits related to the pack and gameplay).
Fixing the affected sims and lots: I rolled back the save to before I had added the initial affected household.
To keep the changes I had made to the affected lot: I was able to place the version of the lot I had saved without the pack enabled. I did this so I didn’t lose any of the decorating I had done. Wasn’t necessary to stop the LE, I did want to lose the decorating I had done.
Be cautious of adding Sims to your game that have been used with Crystal Creations.
What I Don't Know:
If the error corrupts or ruins your savefile. I am not sure if you can just ignore the LE and your save is fine but I don’t like doing that. And the fact that I could not find a way to stop the LE freaked me out. And the issue seem to be spreading to every household I played.

Bridgeport fix / alternative small industrial world help?? 🌃✨
hellooo
so this is very premature given gen4 are still babies, but i figured i’d have a look round bridgeport and edit some lots etc for the late night generation
during my testing, i found that the world is sooo laggy and it won’t even load up most of the time when i try to start a new save
i’ve tried ellacharmed’s world fix and i’m gonna see if compressing my package files again has an affect cos it’s definitely my mod folder size that’s causing the issue and i haven’t merged my cc in a while
but i don’t really want to play without my cc / mods tbh so if that doesn’t work i’m just looking into alternative industrial worlds that might run better
if anyone has any suggestions for custom worlds or if there’s a fix for bridgeport idk about, please let me know!!
I’m currently thinking about doing the gen in an edit of lucky palms that has high rises and i might just add in some of the townies, but pls give me some more suggestions if you have any 🙏🙏

can you batch edit the display number on all categories by the same creator or does it have to be separated by category for it to work properly?

Townie Makeover WIP: Mystery Adami
Actually, I was playing with another Sim, Drago. Who met a young woman at the Gnome's Arms. They chatted for a bit. Unfortunately, Mystery's Simlish isn't the best yet, so there were a lot of misunderstandings. Ultimately, Drago finds out Mystery is an Alien. And, erm, yeah… I looked her up on the household screen, went to CAS, and got distracted.
In CAS, I ran into a new problem. I can't change Mystery's eye color or skin color. Not a single swatch is showing up in her Alien form. Her human disguise has access to everything. Currently, I'm 50/50ing anyway since one of the mods I use wrecks the UI. If anyone has an idea what to look for in case of the missing eye color and skin color swatches, let me know, please.

I feel so embarrassed to even ask this but I want to buy a gaming laptop for the sims 4 that can run with tons of cc and doesn't take hours to load the game. Currently have a Lenovo IdeaPad L340 15 with AMD RYZEN 5-3500U, 16GB, 512 GB SSD. I have 200 GB of CC and moved it to my external drive and run it from there (yes it's possible) and it doesn't matter, it still plays like shit.
Anyone willing to tell me what kind of laptop you guys use? How the sims runs and how many cc you have? If you're just a pc nerd (BLESS YOU) what would you suggest? My limit is around 1500. Keep in mind I'm European but I will glady take any advice!

I’m planning on playing a Stardew Valley-inspired save and was wondering what mods you’d recommend using.
I don’t expect to get things 1:1, but I’d like to have some mods that add and expand on the gardening system and relationships.
Tumblr media
So first as a disclaimer I'm going to out myself and say I'm not a SDV girlie--I grew up with Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons and they're what scratches my cozy farming itch--but they're similar enough and I do have a whole ass farm save to one day return to so...
For vanilla gameplay, you can get a basic cozy farming save going with Cats & Dogs, Seasons and Cottage Living but these mods SHOULD enhance your gameplay overall. I've used most of them to varying degrees in the past--anything I haven't used I marked, but they come from creators that I highly recommend.
As always, read the requirements for each mod! A lot require the XML Injector, and relationship ones often require the Mood Pack.
This mod list was written on Patch 1.98.158.1020 / Mac: 1.98.158.1220 (June 13 2023).
Mods for Better Relationships
First Impressions by Lumpinou: I know I always suggest this one, but if you are doing ANY sort of save where romance/relationship building is a core part of it, you want this! Starting off strong with a villager is a good thing! OR you can have enemies-to-lovers!
RPO by Lumpinou: I also always suggest this one. If you don't have it, please get it! It's beautiful! It's powerful! I honestly use all the modules, but I would specifically suggest Modules 15 & 17 here as they add to relationships. Module 17 is the new RPO Attraction system. But it's nice to have the rest of it too if you don't already, especially if you're planning on kids in your save. It really adds to the gameplay to find your ~ideal partner~ and then it turns out they don't want kids when you do :O
Road to Romance by Lumpinou: This adds a romance skill to the game, with custom interactions. Add in for more in-depth romance. (It also adds in rabbit hole dates which I like to get sims offscreen for a minute)
Have Some Personality Please! by Polarbearsims: This one I suggest to help with autonomy. You want your potential love interests to act of their own accord? Their traits to matter? Get this. It'll help. It can also block off romantic interactions :) so you feel like you've earned the heart events you're imagining
Wonderful Whims by Turbodriver: I'm not currently using either WW in my saves but I would suggest it for the attraction system, as again that will help with your quest for love. It can work in tandem with the attraction system from RPO as well :)
Home Regions by Kuttoe: this isn't really a relationship mod, but I would use it anyway JUST to keep your SDV sims in town where they belong... and keep the other townies OUT. You can set which TS4 worlds you want to see overlap from as well (like if you want some out of town visitors from Windenburg showing up, etc). Fun fact, it also fixes the problem where all your townies are Japanese so
No Randoms by Zero: and finally, this also isn't a relationship mod but it's pretty handy. Maybe you're like me and you don't want the default Mayor in your cozy farm save. You created your OWN characters to fill that role. Well, with this, you can assign the NPC roles in the game. Henford-on-Bagley has several NPC roles that play into the "story" of the world (Mayor, Garden Stall owner, Agatha & Agnes, Creature Keeper, etc) so it's definitely helpful for that!
Tumblr media
Mods for Better Farmlife
Free Range by lot51: this mod lets your cows and llamas roam freely without the Animal Shelter. They DO make messes that you'll have to clean up though (cow pies, trash, etc) and there's a few other extra little things like fairy circles that can spring up :)
Bug Life by lot51: and THIS mod brings bugs to your active lots. I always did a lot of bug collecting to make extra money in my Harvest Moon games.
Bird Life by lot51: I have NOT tried this mod out yet but I'm adding it already because if you're going to add Free Range and Bug Life already... Enhance the outdoors! Why not! Bring your farm to life! BIRDWATCH! (has anyone else played Wingspan? great game)
Farm Animal Set by TheKalino: this adds more custom animals to the game, some of which you can harvest wool or eggs from. Some are just aesthetic. They're added to the Animal Shelter. Nice to expand your farm options, if that's something you want to do!
Cottage Living Tweaks by Zero: specifically Agatha & Agnes are Mortal; Village Gossipers are Residents; Dogs Chase Foxes More Often; and Patchy Scares Foxes (that's right. Use that scarecrow for something). These are just little tweaks to help you out. To be fair, if you're using Home Regions I don't think you'll need Village Gossipers are Residents but I also don't trust TS4 and I used them both at the same time in the past so.
Better Animal Hygeine, Better Animal Hunger, Better Animal Activity by LittleMsSam: these are small tweak mods just to make your life easier with the animals. :)
Calm Bees by LittleMsSam: if you want to add beekeeping to your farm (I would), this is a nice little addition to calm your bees tf down!
Flower Arrangements slower decay by LittleMsSam: I don't remember the Harvest Moon game I got REALLY into doing flower arrangements for, but there was definitely one and I definitely spent a lot of time doing them and gifting them to my love interest. So I'm suggesting it for that reason lmao
More Woodworks by LittleMsSam: you know, just in case your farmer is really into crafting...
Pets Everywhere by Kuttoe: adds stray cats & dogs to every world, including Henford-on-Bagley. Nice if you want to play it as if your farmer befriends the dog and they join the household that way.
Dairy Cowplant by Icemunmun or Cowplant Farming by BrazenLotus: you could have both of them but I think it's just easier to pick one. These add new cowplant varieties that make... milk! They can also make different kinds of milk.... See below with the harvestables... I feel like the Cowplant really does fit with Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons' level of quirky, you know?
Functional Mill, Plant Milk Press, Dairy Churn by Icemunmun: these are custom objects to, again, add onto your gameplay. They work with the custom harvestables below to add some more stuff for your farmers to create. And they're very on theme.
Cheesemaking Skill by BrazenLotus: another custom object/mod/skill that adds to what your farmers can make. I have NOT tried it yet but I'm honestly about to throw it into my game today because I'm obsessed with the very IDEA of it. I've used BrazenLotus mods in the past so I can recommend
Tumblr media
Custom Recipes and Harvestables
One of the best parts of these cozy farming games has always been the cooking, right? The custom harvestables will add more variety to your farm... The custom recipes are just my suggestion to spice up your game. I am a glutton for custom recipes, tbh. Besides, the way to a love interest's heart is through their stomach, right? What better way to
Custom Harvestables by Icemunmun
Custom Foods by Icemunmun (requires custom food interaction)
Custom Foods by BrazenLotus (there are a LOT here--BrazenLotus has a whole homesteading section which is really cool and was not there the last time I went to their site and I'm literally obsessed)
Grannie's Cookbook by Littlbowbub
Oni's Food Mod (I use this one the least--right now in my "gutted' mod folder I only have Grannie's Cookbook--but I've used it in the past and still highly recommend)
Tumblr media
Hopefully this helps! Happy simming!

Probably whispering into the void here, but does anyone know what is causing this lil gap/seam just under the chin here? All of my male sims have it now, and it's worse on some than others.

If you download a bunch of CC from a creator who packs their mods inside a folder, this is the easiest way to extract the files without doing it manually.
If you want to move the contents of a source directory and all of its sub-directories to a single destination directory (i.e. flatten the folder structure), it's very easy and you don't even need to bother with the command line. Just go to the top-level source folder (whose contents you want to copy), and in the Windows Explorer search box type * (just a star or asterisk). This will display every file and sub-folder under the source folder. Now just sort by Type to group all files together, select them all, then cut/copy and paste in the destination folder.

Friends, please help.
I want to turn my Acres Family landing page into something like this; obviously replacing my excellent art with actual heir pictures. I could either have the faces be links to their stories, or have them underneath thats fine.
My issue is I don't know how to do this, or what tutorial name I'm looking for! I've looked for ages today and come up with nothing, pls help.

FYI - if you repair your game and do a folder refresh, make sure you keep your old user settings that are stored in your EA folder. Otherwise you’ll lose all of your daily unlocks.
If they are going to release all these items for free, I’m not sure how much this matters, but sharing in case it happens to you as well. 
Edit: See comment with some directions!

Guys, i need help :(
Everytime i try to invite someone to my lot, the sim come completely invisible. I only know they are there because I click in the relationship panel to "focus on sim" and because props like cellphone starts floating up and my sim hugs the air :(
I tried inviting Blue's sister and later their friends to a baby shower but all the guests were invisible i had to exit the game
Also i ve been having saving issues where my game will just save forever until i force it to close :( ive lost some gp bc of that :(
Anybody know how to fix it or is having the same issue? I didnt updated my game yet so it wasnt the patch or outdated mods :(
Reblogs are appreciated too :(

ohhh, not me trying to figure out why this color is coming out as a grey splotch in game instead of being red 🤔
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so here's what I did -- I made a copy of one of the scars from the werewolf pack. Got the texture into PS and doubled it up so there's hard lines and used Color Burn/Linear to get that red splotchyness without me having to do anything to it.
but it comes out like that in-game. any idea what that could be?
