Small Update on Phone Call Overhaul

KawaiiStacie has recently updated her Slice Of Life mod. It seems to be a complete rework, and the compatibility packages for Phone Call Overhaul are no longer needed. I’ll keep an eye out in case I need to add them again, but for now I have removed them from the mod.
Please remove the packages from your mods folder too in case you were using them.

Mod Update - Patch 1.73.48.1030

All other mods not listed here should be fine.

I started a process of moving all my multi-package mods into zip files, but instead of doing it all at once I'll do it as I update them, to avoid overwhelming you guys. Both the mods in this update were affected by this change, so you'll be downloading a single zip file now with all the packages inside.

Mod Update 04/19/21

While working on something entirely different, I stumbled upon a much cleaner way of doing my Vampire Invasion Fix. The fix is no longer included in Sim Spawn Overhaul, so please download the separate version from my Bug Fixes Compilation if you’re interested.

BUST THE DUST OVERHAUL

Yet again, Maxis completely butchered a concept I’ve always wanted to see done. I played with the new Bust The Dust kit over the last week and tried to salvage as much as I could from the clunky gameplay and annoying features.

This mod has multiple packages to choose from, read the descriptions below before downloading.

This mod requires the Bust The Dust kit.

BETTER REACTIONS

Have you ever noticed how bland your sims look when they’re walking from one point to another? And how they will only display emotion and react to the world around them when standing still?

This is a compilation of mods that attempt to fix that by changing various animations to be played when sims are routing instead of only when they’re standing still.

It’s important to note that some animations may look slightly weird, because they weren’t made to work like this. Still, ...

Small Announcement on the Influential Mod

Better Mood Reactions 

- Adding the new Scared mood to the mod created issues in some people’s games. I haven’t been able to track what’s causing this yet, so for now I’m rolling back the mod, meaning the Scared mood will no longer be affected.
This might be temporary or permanent, depending on whether or not I’m able to fix whatever’s causing the issue. Sorry f...

It’s been a mess these last few weeks, but I wanted to hop in here real quick to wish everyone a happy new year!

Last year wasn’t easy for anyone, but all the love and support I got from you guys was definitely a positive, and I can’t thank you enough. Feels great to create something you love — even better to know other people love it too.

MADAM SIMOVAR - THE POTION SELLER

This mod requires the Realm of Magic game pack.

Introducing Madam Simovar, a new NPC that allows your non-spellcaster sims to get access to alchemy potions — as long as they have the money.

I won’t spoil the mod too much; everything is intuitive and I want you guys to really explore the interactions and dialogs that I wrote. In this post I'll only give you the basics on how to start using the mod.

Small Mods Compilation 

I compiled some of my mods that were too small to have their own dedicated post. They are:

I have also added four new mods to this compilation:

SMALL MODS COMPILATION

Some of my mods are way too small to have an entire post dedicated to them, so I decided to join them in a single post with a single zip file so you guys can find them and download them more easily.

INSTALLATION

Extract the zip. Inside, you will find a folder for each mod, with one or more corresponding packages. Take the packages you want from inside the folders and paste them in your Mods folder.

Small Update

I just changed the downloading method for Purple Skies. If you already have the mod, you don’t need to download it again. 
Nothing changed in the files, all I did was separate the mod into folders so people won’t need to download the entire mod again when it updates, or download files for packs they don’t even own.
