Early Access: two mini-mods

Here are two little mods that deal with little things that annoyed me:

Regional Greetings

This mod limits the availability of region-specific greetings so that your options aren't full of "Friendly Introduction" equivalents.

"Respectful Introduction" will only appear if your Sim is in Mt. Komorebi, if your Sim lives in Mt. Komorebi, or if your Sim has the Proper trait.

"Howdy Introduction" will only appear if your Sim is in Chestnut Ridge, Strangervill...

Update 12/17 -

  • Added Market Stalls Everywhere
  • Reuploaded all mods because I am a dummy who messed up the scheduling by mixing a 24-hour clock and a 12-hour clock together.
  • Bars placed on gym lots will now spawn a special bartender who serves healthy drinks, including the obscure protein shake recipe, and a few kinds of salad.
  • For lots that normally have bartenders, adding a second bar object will spawn a second bartender. This should be helpful for makin...

Always Auto Lights Functionality

I'm thinking of making a change to how Always Auto Lights works and I'd like your opinion. 

I'd like to change it so it only attempts to change the settings once the first time you enter a lot. This would allow you to set certain lights to Always On, like for a greenhouse or grow room, or Always Off, like for a spooky basement, without having to constantly redo those settings every time you enter the lot. However, this does mean every time you buy a new lamp after your Sims move in...

Patch Report 12/6/23

Yesterday's patch was uniquely disruptive in that it knocked several diagnostic tools out of commission. We modders use those tools to see whether our mods are broken and where so that we can start fixing them. Without those tools, unless a mod is crashing the game or misbehaving in a very visible way, it can be very time-consuming to find where the new issues are, and without a detailed error report it can be troublesome to find the problem in code to fix it.

To explain the root proble...

Pizza Preferences Update

I've made some necessary changes to Pizza Preferences to fix some odd issues, mostly related to autonomy.

Patch notes:

  • Updated German translation by LittleDog1002
  • Fixed an issue with the Pineapple and Hawaiian Dislikes that would cause those Sims to never autonomously eat any prepared meal at all
  • Sims who dislike *any* pizza topping will not autonomously eat a pizza they hate unless they are starving (not just pineapple haters) View Post

Poll: Next Small Project

Itโ€™s been nice to get back into things and clean off some of the rust, but if Iโ€™m being frank, the momentum I had on any of my other big projects has been reset to zero. Not only do I need to remember all the motions and techniques of modding in general, but I need to remember where I was on those projects and what all still needs to be done.

In the meantime, I need a couple of quick wins to get things flowing. Iโ€™ve always had a bunch of quickly slapped together mods in my persona...

mini-mod: Backpack Book Fix

In a recent patch, Maxis added functionality to backpacks which were previously only decorative, allowing them to hold books and allowing Sims to carry them around in their inventory. Unfortunately, Sims are unable to properly put books away into these backpacks, but that does not stop them from trying. Any attempts at using the backpack like this results in the Simโ€™s hands breaking and the book becoming glitched, which is obviously not ideal.

This mod fix prevents Sims from trying to...

Hello everyone! Good to see you all. I wanted to first mention really quick that the life circumstances that I was dealing with around the time the Horse Ranch pack came out have more or less been dealt with now. Things are settling into a new โ€œnormalโ€, and I should have more time and availability to work on my mods again. I hope to have more substantive updates for you soon.

For now, I have an update for Pizza Preferences ready to go that accommodates the new toppings included in t...
