Hey everyone, hope your week is going well!
For those who did not see my post here, I was on break for most of last week and had also posted an explanation of what happened the previous week, which was that I spent the entire time helping others with their projects and left me no time to work on my own. This was also why I had no dev blog that week like I had mentioned and hoped to do in my pr...

Evening everyone! Just stopping by to say that today we had a minor patch and my mods are compatible with this patch, along with Pancake and I's mods. No Fade on Everything is functioning but will be updated to support the new painting and the new kit once S4S is updated for the new kit
The Functional Dairy Cow has been updated (unrelated to patch) to fix a bug with the groce...

Hey everyone, hope you're doing well! I just wanted to stop by and let you guys know that I will be on my first vacation since I started modding (and had my son) in two and a half years starting Tuesday, probably ending Saturday. I will be unavailable for questions and will be limiting social media where possible so I can get as much relaxation as possible, and spend time with my fiancé as it's our anniversary. Once I'm back I'll respond to questions and commen...

Even after 3+ years we still have people avoiding mods that use XML Injector for whatever reason, so I'm going to explain what it is and why you need it for some of the mods out there.
What is it?
XML Injector is a script mod that doesn't do anything by itself, it's sole purpose is to help other mods work in your game. This means it won't corrupt your game, won't change your game in anyway, or do a...

Hello everyone! Hope you've been enjoying the new patch and/or the pack!
It is now August 6th, unfortunately for me (hopefully not for you guys), and I'm extremely disappointed because I really, really, wanted to get the planned mods out before Cottage Living had hit. Besides a few days of break, helping others, or working on a mod, I only just finished the last of my updates for the patch, which is frustrating. But I'm still focusing on the mods though, and now that I'm not in a total ...

This is just a condensed list of what was updated and changed for the 1.77 patch. Note that SimCity Loans was re-updated today with a fix for those experiencing the packet bug. No Fade on Everything has also been updated for the Cottage Living pack and the new BG items.
Updates:
- 2022 April 28th - Updated due to previous patch changes.
- 2022 February 17th - Updated for patch 1.84 changes.
Adopted from Shushu
Does as the title says, the mod allows kids to plan events through the phone or the calendar like teens and up can do.
Someone asked for an update to the calendar UI file of this mod from Shushu, which broke with the recent patch (1.77). I've gone ahead and u...

⚠️ Updates August 5th: ⚠️
My final updates are now done! You can find a condensed list here if this one is too long.
Hey everyone! Just stopping by to let you guys know that there will be a massive patch tomorrow. You can see some of the info in the image above (by Turbodrivder) for base game, but as it warns this is also an expansion pack prep patch and these ones always come with widespread mod breakage.
Last expansion patch in November it was traits and some other things due to Snowy Escape, and this one? More than likely anything associated with cooking, recipes, functional objects,...

Ack, how in the world is it the 14th already!? CoL releases in 8 days! I feel like it was just yesterday that it was announced, I can't believe how fast time is moving.
Current Progress
📌 Medieval Dance:
Right now I've picked up another older mod that I started a while back, and then put on hold, as part of my "Complete Before CoL Releases" batch of mods, which is the dance from The Sims Medieval. Again though this is one of those momen...

As promised here are the last of my planned mod updates for a while (except one, explained in Everyone Can Suntan)! I will now be focusing on a few of my other WIP mods to try and finish them before Cottage Living releases. I'm trying to get as many done as I can because I'll be swamped with farming WIP mods for a while once it does release. I'll be explaining more in a monthly post soon as I haven't done one in a while, sorry about that!
Updates:
- 2021 July 23rd - Updated for patch 1.77. Please make sure to delete the old package and place the new one as the name has been updated to match the patch number (and always will).
I know, bit of an odd one, but someone brought this up to me last year as a possible mod and I realized I liked the idea as the lot outlines on the maps ruin the aesthetic of the EA and override maps. Fast forward to now, and thanks to Pancake who figured ...

All of my mods are cleared for this patch, other than No Fade still. I will be updating No Fade sometime this week for now until the person helping troubleshoot gets back to me for my final batch of fixes. The missing packs will also be included, and with that update post will also include updates for School Uniforms For Any World, Everyone Can Suntan, and the snapping arm fix for Human Ghost. I should have a new tiny mod released too.

October 26th - All S4S bugs related to Styled Looks and SimInfos has been fixed, including the CC bug! I've removed that part of the tutorial now that it is no longer needed (also updated with a new flag to block hair, nails, and makeup, thanks to SimplyAnjuta). Thank you everyone for your patience!
This works on both CC and EA clothes, and is easy to do, but keep in mind that only hats, accessories, makeup, hair, and clothes...

Phew, been a busy few weeks thanks to Summer of Sims and mod work!
Also is anyone else as hyped as I am about the new EP!? I'm so glad that EA is doing farming, even if they just labeled it as Cottage Living. Just note that even though EA is adding farming, we're still working on our own farming stuff!
We plan to do the missing animals, add any features from our cow to the EA cow, add improvements to EA's other animals if necessary, and we also have some farm related o...

Final updates complete, here's the compiled post!
No Fade On Everything will be updated soon, just no set date yet as we are going through the last few files.
New:
- Remove Hats Indoors - Two options: an interaction to remove hats regardless of where a sim is, and then a hat rack that functions like the shoe rack but for hats (and BG).

June 8th - Final updates complete! Check here for the final update post and notes.
May 28th - Meant to post these earlier today but got behind on some things. These mods have been updated first (along with Pancake and I's More Traits and Color Sliders):
Note: Some people are getting LEs when placing the coat rack down. I haven't pinpointed the cause yet, but it only happens on certain lots and the lots are different for each person.
Updates:
- 2021 July 24th - Updated for patch 1.77 changes.
New base game compatible mod with two options:
- Remove Hat interaction for individual played sims, under the Actions menu. This is in case you want to remove the...

Hi everyone! For some reason I thought it was the end of the month already, specifically the 28th?? I am lost in time sometimes, lol.
Anyways, just stopping by with some updates! I will have 2 mods releasing soon, the hat removal mod that functions like the SE shoe rack but does not require SE to function (yay!), and then my broom mod! Pancake and I restarted the animations and so far so good it seems.

It has been a crazy two weeks. I mentioned before I was attempting something big but so far it's been fighting me every step of the way and I might have actually reached a stalemate at this point....I'll keep trying and hopefully have some good news to report, but this + the mods discussed below have been taking up all my focus lately. But look at it, look at that mess! That's just one of the bugs I ran into! It's extremely frustrating because I was over the moon in excitement and now I want ...

Hey guys! Sorry for the quietness since my last update post, time got away from me and I also didn't have anything important to post about as I was still at a stalemate with my mods until a few days ago, lol. Also, I've decided to name these WIP posts "Dev Blog" for a number of reasons, so this should make them easier to identify.

Hey everyone, hope you've had a good week! This patch was very small, minimal damage other than UI related mods like Pancake and I's stuff and CC wrench. Everything else should be fine (including Scarlet's mods). As usual if you notice anything wrong please let me know! No Fade will get a kit update sometime in the next few weeks, once we get the new packs and after I hopefully hear back from the people who were helping me narrow down some stuff.
Patrons, you will be ge...

Posting another quick update on the broom. Finished the basics and was ready to test in-game, but running into some issues as you can see from the gif. The broom is being weird and I'm not quite sure what is wrong with it or how to get it to behave without remaking pieces of it. Pancake is looking into it with me but he's not quite sure either, lol. I was hoping to finish it this week for release but I have a feeling that's not going to be the case....So I'm going to mainly focus on arranged ...

Edit: Edited to add that we're still working on the cow bug-related update, but everyone got a bit sidetracked with their own projects, and I myself am struggling to fix the name bug in the friendship panel. I can't figure out why it's glitching as SimFirstName, but hopefully I'll figure it out soon, lol.
I'm also going to post another preview soon of the broom, I almost have it ready for in-game testing! So far I've been working on exporting everything from Blender and putting the basi...

Thankfully this patch was pretty easy on my mods! The following needed updates because of the improved trait bits they added, but otherwise were still functional. Everything else not listed is compatible with this patch (including CC Wrench). Also still waiting on S4S to update for No Fade, and still investigating some issues with it as well.
I have to work on Pancake and I's mods next as the patch adjusted the relax posture to be used in-game, and they added watch TV w...

I'm still working on the Styled Looks tutorial, but wanted to run a quick poll to see what tutorial themes you guys want. I add a new tutorial idea to my list almost every week so I'd like to choose an area to focus on when I do get the chance to write. Trying to decide by myself what to do first is hard, lol.
Note that I can't do the custom bassinets/onesie tutorials until after I get the injectors going, otherwise they will still conflict.

Here is a list of just Scarlet's mods if anyone needs a quick reference, but you can find them all listed in the Mod & Tutorial Index as well.
This will be where all of my mods and tutorials are linked for fast browsing, as well as my TOU, the current monthly summary, and patch statuses. Once my website is up (it's like 90% finished but I keep forgetting to check in with my friend) you will have a better viewing experience there for everything.
I have also gone through and fixed the tags so everything now has a matching tag based on the below (so misc mods are now tagged as misc mods, etc.).
Originally by Shimrod101 and was maintained by Scarlet.
Original Description: This mod removes the distance blur.
