I. Almost THREE YEARS of modding! :)
First of all, since we are very much nearing my three year modding anniversary, I once again want to express my immense gratitude to YOU.
It is thanks to you that I can be in modding for the very long run, and able little by little to create new features to the game and improve them as I go. Your enthusiasm and faith in my work gives me courage when I falter. Your financial support means I can dedicate myself to this and keep maintaining my existing mods and trying to provide new complex experiences for the game, to bring more options to your stories.
My mods would not be happening without you, and every single one of you is to thank for their existence.
III. About the next new RPO Mod in construction
About the upcoming new RPO mod, I believe you already know it is called "WooHoo Life", as for exactly what being made in it, I regretfully must ask you for a few more days of patience before I make the preview post.
The reason for that is that a few of the features I am working on for it, I am not yet completely sure that they will work out the way I want in the end - obstacles are usual and normal, but those are 'new territory'. So I don't want to start talking about it announcing things when I am not sure that I won't have to scrap them in the end.
I just have to ask you to trust my process for a little longer until I can show you what I've been cooking up without any fear or doubt.
I will not either answer questions about it at this moment, so please just wait for the preview post which will come within the week.
The less pressure I work with, the better & faster my work goes.
I will say at least that I am making a variety of features for it that I hope you will be excited about once you hear about them :)
Initially I was thinking this would be 'Small', but it has building up into a larger mod than I initially planned, with more aspects covered!
______________________________________
BUT Since we're here, I thought I'd already push out new things & changes that I've made to the rest of RPO since last time.
Early Access for now; these new things will be public once the new upcoming mod goes public.
You don't have to update, you can wait till the release of the upcoming mod and official posts etc; but if you want to update, you can! Links in this post.
II. RPO: 'Quality of Life' - type update
* New options under 'General Management' to Send Sim to Other Household or Bring Sim into Current Household.
* New cheat under 'Reproductive health' to easily & quickly switch impregnation attributes. Lots of people in mod support seemed in need of something like that.
* Fixes for grandchildren preferences, which weren't working or showing moodlets.
* Fix for infants unable to return normally from custody visits
* Fix for all household transfers: for those who have "Growing Together", sending a sim to another household (for custody visit for example) will mark the other household as 'Played' if not already, so your Sim doesn't loose their milestones. Also, babies already in correct household at custody decision should not try to leave.
* WTD Cheats: improved and now also available on other Sims, not just the active one.
___________________
IV. NOT NEW but a REMINDER:
The RPO Collection mods have many cheats & debug options to help you!
I've been getting a lot of questions like 'how can I add / remove a relationship' or such. I also notice that many people have no idea about the cheats in general. So, here's a reminder.
A. Cheats about & on the active Sim
They are in several places.
- General ones are under 'General Debug'
- Cheats relating to a particular mod of RPO or function are arranged thematically AND appear only when contextually relevant AND to avoid breaking immersion, are generally not called 'Cheats' but 'Sim's Status'.
For an example, the 'Pregnancy' cheat menu, located under the main 'pregnancy' menu:
When Pregnant:
VS when Not Pregnant:
B. Cheats on and about other Sims
They're located under 'Actions' then 'RPO Special Actions', when clicking another Sim.

That's it for today,
Thanks for your patience,

I have a suggestion. In the event a sim tells her partner she is pregnant, I wonder if the male sim has a parent still living and announces pregnancy can we create some drama and have the parent question paternity as an option?

2023-07-27 17:59:23 +0000 UTCHi, take out all of your cc and mods and try in a new save, with just rpo in. Very important that it be in a new save. Then report back, thanks!
Lumpinou
2023-07-01 16:37:47 +0000 UTCHi, I'm having a problem where when clicking on sims the pie menu takes long to load. without RPO in it shows almost immediately. With other mods that add to the pie menu, like ww, sacraficial and etc, it loads fine. I have tried with only yours and it takes about 3 seconds. Is there any way for me to fix this?
2023-07-01 16:34:59 +0000 UTCYeah it's still planned
Lumpinou
2023-06-30 20:38:01 +0000 UTCHey I was just wanting to ask are you still going to be bring out the mod for courts if I can remember it was so you could get arrested for certain things thanks love your work
rubysapphire666
2023-06-30 20:36:24 +0000 UTCIt gets decided by chance influenced by factors
Lumpinou
2023-06-30 19:50:26 +0000 UTCHi just quick question about the cheating module. Was reading up on it and it says when confessing to having cheated with, leads to pop up window with decision to stay or leave unless the pop ups were turned off. So what happens when they're turned off? Is the decision made by chance or is it decided automatically they should stay together?

2023-06-30 19:49:31 +0000 UTCDoing one would normally make it happen for both, it's set that way
Lumpinou
2023-06-24 19:41:22 +0000 UTCIf the surrogate has twins, how do I get to "welcome to family" both babies? It's only allowing me to do one.

2023-06-24 19:40:56 +0000 UTCOh and also another teen couple too, using the try for baby.
Sabbysims
2023-06-22 01:23:05 +0000 UTCHi again, this is abnormal and not something anyone else has ever mentioned. Can you go to another household and get another teen pregnant via mess around or RPO interactions (no WW) and see what happens? You might need to take out WW to test that
Lumpinou
2023-06-22 01:22:08 +0000 UTCTeen sim, I used wickedwhims. She has happy mood, and tense,( freaking out) because she doesn’t want the pregnancy. Which is not ready for pregnancy. Then when I restart the game, it shows just the tense mood.
Sabbysims
2023-06-22 01:18:31 +0000 UTCI need more context. What is the age of the sim, how did the pregnancy start, what preferences did you give to the Sims, and what do you mean by 'eating got two and freaking out'
Lumpinou
2023-06-22 00:33:16 +0000 UTCusually after a pregnant sim takes a test they will get a mood when they find out about the pregnancy which could be happy, tense etc. What is happening is my sim is showing two reactions moods (the normal one happy eating for two) and your mod reaction moods. The problem I am having is that should only be one reaction to the pregnancy, its a glitch, there should only be one moodlet reaction. Also when I restart the game then the sim will have the correct reaction from your mod (showing only one). It appears your mod is not overwriting the default mood of the sim when finding out they are pregnant, at least not until the game is restarted, any way to fix that?
Sabbysims
2023-06-22 00:31:56 +0000 UTCHi, please give more details on context etc
Lumpinou
2023-06-21 21:18:13 +0000 UTChey it keeps showing two reactions to the pregnancy for me.... which are eating for two (the happy one) and freaking out. I deleted the old files, but it still doing it. Also when I restart the game it will show the correct reaction for the sim.
Sabbysims
2023-06-21 20:08:42 +0000 UTCHappy 3 years my creation Queen. Keep it coming.

2023-06-01 10:01:52 +0000 UTCYou're the modder i have supported most consistently and the longest. It's been worth every penny. I hope you continue to thrive in your creativity and grow in self care.
