Seeing Early Access videos and tunings that were updated in the latest patch, I think was right 😅 But I already see a nice mod opportunity to make things work better, as it's possible to add buffs to Club/SB/CV activities (only working for Custom Venues). I'll start working on that to test later.

First round of updates for my mods is out ! Nothing seemed broken, but lots of tunings to edit for Adventure Awaits compatibility 🤗 Find the list of update mods here : down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7958427... #TheSims4 #Sims4Mods

Just started working on my mods updates 🤓 It seems things are not broken, but many updates are required for when the pack is out (mostly filters and the other usual adjustements, but some surprising stuff, I never thought a pack would impact the campfire 😅).

It looks like building r-rentals on penthouses currently cause white screens and endless loading screens. Try this method: forums.ea.com/idea/the-sim... and revert the lot to a residential one.

Hi ! Just a note about my mods updates : I won't be able to look at my mods until next weekend, and will have to wait until the weekend after to finish and test the updates for the new pack. Sorry for the delay, I'll try to post a list of what is broken next week !

After debating on that with myself, I've made a small list of issues I think could benefit from more upvotes. I selected them for specific reasons (see the Tumblr post for why) and tried to provide a link to a fix, or ways to avoid them. #fixthesims down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7949668...

I guess the new rule of fixing issues with the most upvotes will be for the next patch 😅 At least, with what is listed here (mostly fixes related to tagging and swatches), I don't think a lot of mods will break... except if they touch up a lot of stuff behind the scenes.

Sad to realize there is a new (not that new, from last month) issue that makes all your photos in-game blurry. They are reduced to a small size as soon as you load a lot, and saved this way, meaning they can't be recovered. #TheSims4 forums.ea.com/idea/the-sim...

Nice to see they will take extra effort to address issues, I hope it will have a real impact. My only concern is using the metric of votes only to prioritize issues, as some of them might be easy to fix and not seen by most players, and newer issues with less votes might be forgotten or delayed 🥲

I've tried to play a little bit, as I wanted to see how the naturopath career worked (as it made sense for two of my Sims to switch to that !). It was fun, but I think I'll try and work on replacing the ailment overlays that are little too whimsical for my style of gameplay 🤗 #TheSims4

There is a new "Awaiting Additional Reports" status on the bug report forum. What I guess here, is that if an issue is not voted by enough people, it won't be looked into. That really makes me angry, as even some issues with full reporting are not solved for months, it's another level… #TheSims4

Welcome to my TED talk ! Here I'll try to explain why I'm concerned about how Custom Venues and Getaways will work in terms of autonomy. From what I'm understanding, It will use the same system as Clubs and Small Businesses to pick activities, that don't work as well as for regular venues. #TheSims4

I think everybody observed a lot of details already but maybe not this one : this kettle that should be the kind of object placed on a counter is placed on this table. Maybe it can be used for other appliances ? (unlike the ones from the Kitchen Clutter and Restoration Workshop Kits) #TheSims4

Loved the trailer for the new pack, so many activities (and animations) and new systems that don't seem to bloat the regular gameplay ! I'm very curious about the Custom Venues and the possibilities with getaways 🫣 I really hope the patch before will come with a lot of fixes #TheSims4

Just posted about that on my Tumblr to order my thoughts. www.tumblr.com/down-in-sims... #TheSims4

Nice to see them addressing the save issues, but that's not the first time and it's still not fixed (I get that it takes time from the complexity). But in the meantime, bugs continue to pile up, new content to be released, and most of them are not fixed. Even easy ones where the root cause is clear.

Just tried to load an old save with the issue of default lots showing instead of what I've built using the “FPB” version: the issue is gone 😃

Rare post from me, but I was really happy about all those skins details added by the last patch ! I can finally make some of my elders look the age they are supposed to look 🤗 (all those Sims are from my save file if you want to play with them 🤗) #TheSims4 #ShowUsYourSims

Hi ! It seems like some stuff broke with scripts mods that is beyond my understanding at the moment (just got back from holidays and working again tomorrow 😑). I'll take time to understand and update this weekend, but in the meantime, mods I created involving scripts could be broken.

Coucou ! Pour mes amis français, j'ai ajouté une page d'index de mon Tumblr tout en français, pour que ça soit plus facile de s'y retrouver 🤗 Tous les mods et ma save sont traduits en français ainsi que les descriptions pour rappel 🐓 down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7907789...

Hi ! It's time for some Mod updates : 🚷 No Townie Generation and Relaxed Filters: fixed an issue with the Plant Sim filter. You can find my townies for the pack under my EA ID Down-In-Simsland 🌿 Plant Sims use the Enchanted by Nature Hairstyle: a new mod to get rid of the BG fauxhawk! #TheSims4

Hi ! I fixed an issue with the barista from my Multi-Purpose Lot Traits, and a manifest issue for Plumbuddy users with the three script mods I updated (Removed Situation Jobs Outfits, Eat and Drink Sitting, Less Club Gatherings). Have a nice day. #TheSims4 #Sims4Mods

I have updated my mods, it was long but everything should be okay now ! You can find the list of updated mods here : www.tumblr.com/down-in-sims... As always, as I don't have a Patreon, you can tip me here: ko-fi.com/downinsimsland ❤️ #TheSims4 #Sims4Mods

Hi ! As you might have noticed, I'm not really posting or reading stuff there anymore. I needed to take a step back as creating for this game wasn't bringing me happiness anymore 🥲 My only duty left is to update my mods, and I already started to work on that, but it will take time. #TheSims4

Last time I'm reposting it, I promise 🫣 I have yet to see anybody play it (I think I only saw one person but it was during playtesting, thanks Amari!). I was so excited seeing people discover the save, so if you do, don't hesitate to tag me or use the #DownInSaveland tag 🤗 #TheSims4

Reposting this one, as I think (by looking at the SFS downloads) that only a few people noticed that I also shared with this tutorial some custom brushes ready to use, and an override of existing brushes to make it possible to use them in a smaller format 🤩 #TheSims4

For those who haven't seen it this weekend 🤗 I'd love to see your screenshots playing the save, you can use the tag #DownInSaveland here and I'll check them! And If you want to makeover some Sims in your style or anything else don't hesitate 🤩 #TheSims4

Hi ! For those who don't want to use the full save (even if they are better there 😁), I also (re)uploaded most of my builds (only the ones created fully myself, as some of them are based on @simsontherope.bsky.social builds) and part of my Sims on my gallery under my EA ID Down-In-Simsland #TheSims4

Pour mes amis francophones, les instructions et la sauvegarde elle-même sont aussi disponibles en français, ça se passe ici: down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7837928... 400 Sims dont 250 joués, 120 terrains et plein d'histoires vous attendent ! Elle nécessite tous les packs disponibles. #TheSims4

It's finally there! My save file is now available to download here: down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7837928... It includes more than 400 Sims, including 250 played ones, around 120 lots and plenty of lore! Please take the time to read all the instructions 🤗 It requires all the packs. #TheSims4

It seems like I finished my save file, both in French and English, after lot of testing (thanks @simsontherope.bsky.social and @amaricurious.bsky.social that helped me with some of it) but now I have to take pictures and write a long post in both languages and I'm already tired about it 😅 #TheSims4

Some mod updates: Multi-Purpose Lot Traits Functional Registers Rent a Room Club & Businesses Extended Interactions Bar, Nightclub & Lounges Visitors No Townie Generation and Relaxed Filters More options for the Bubble Tea & Espresso Bar counters #TheSims4 down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7837361...

Just a quick fix for the Kitchen Clutter backsplash, just changed the shader used by the mesh, it won't mark it as CC. Grab it here: simfileshare.net/download/542... On other news, my mods seems fine with the new patch, but I'll publish some updates later to include new objects in my mods #TheSims4

Hi ! You might have noticed I'm not really active at the moment, as I started my new job, and I'm actively testing my save (it takes so much time 😅). But also, the more I play in live mod for those tests, the more I'm noticing issues with the game, and this last laundry list was a let down #TheSims4

Discovering a little bit more the Live Mode, finally! I spent a day with Pascal and his games bar / tattoo parlor, everything is going well 🖋️ #TheSims4 #ShowUsYourSims

Hi ! I have a lot of questions about hosting my mods outside SFS, sorry for the moment I won't be able to, I'm starting school again and a new job next week, and have to juggle with administrative stuff to stop my freelancing company, so I won't focus on Sims related stuff. Sorry for that 🥹

Sorry for the silence these past few days, I had a minor surgery (all is well!), so I’ve been taking some time to rest. 😊 It gave me a chance to start updating all my households with content from the latest EPs, and even started creating some new ones. But there's still a lot left to do!

There was a small issue with the 🚷 No Townie Generation and Relaxed Filters if used with my 🪅 Multi-Purpose Lot Traits, it's now fixed, you can grab it at the end of this page: down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7691257...

So my work here is done, as in addition to those updates from yesterday, I have other ones ! First, I added a page called Better Community Lots and reordered some mods as the Townies & Outfits page, and the Random Small Mods page were full! #TheSims4 down-in-simsland.tumblr.com/post/7807863...

I have two days left before starting my classes, but I didn't get a chance to sleep in for one last time because there was work going on in my building! Today's project: finish all the mods I'm working on (most of them are already finished, but I need to write the descriptions to share them).

To celebrate the fact that I finished a first version of my save (that I'm now testing), I released a new mod to prevent townie generation completely, and making some filters more flexible. It require some set-up so read the instructions. I also added a bunch of NPCs to the gallery #TheSims4

Just got two new tattoos. I didn't remember that tattoos actually appear progressively exactly where the tattoo artist place their tattoo pen 🫢 And now I have to create them as tattoos in game to add to my simself!

I don't know what it's supposed to be, but those fake walls being 1 tile exactly, and three of them stacked up a regular wall-size, and the wall shelve being exactly one tile sized up, opens up so many ideas to things to create using TOOL 🤩

Updating my families and my lots is also giving me the opportunity to discover them again 🤩 Love how those two living rooms seem to come from decades ago! #TheSims4 #ShowUsYourBuilds
