Updates:
- 2020 November 25th - Updated to include buyable shrines, which I had to override in order to get it to work (compatible with No Fade on Everything though). Also includes an override version of the object tuning instead, upon request, so please only choose one when downloading.
I understand why they had to remove this interaction but I know many also wanted this for their gameplay like I did, so here's this interaction re-enabl...

So far this patch hasn't been too bad on mods, I'm really surprised! I also meant to get this post out waaay earlier but ever since the patch hit I've been experiencing crashing and only just now got it solved with a full repair and folder refresh. It's been one of those days, lol.
I've checked all my files and they should be compatible and function in your game, though a few do need to be updated to add in the new missing lifestyle/sentiment stuff.

Sorry for being so late! Ahhh, I can't believe it's been 2 months since my last summary. I really hate how quickly time flies by. ;-; But, like I said in my previous mod post I have plenty of good news to share, and I hope it doesn't disappoint! Because I missed two months I have a lot of info to go over, but I will make it as short as possible.

During the middle of September my modding pace slowed because I couldn't focus, so no mod releases soon, except for maybe one which I keep forgetting to finish and release. xD The monthly summary will be up in about two weeks or so after the upcoming patch, which is October 6th (so please prepare your game) and I have plenty of good news to share with you! I hope around then we finally get an idea as to what the next pack is, and whatever it is I pray it's good.

This tutorial will not cover creating icons/images in a photo editing program, only adding a custom one to your files.
Hopefully you already have a mod going, and the files you want to add the image to done. To add an icon, you need to make sure you are adding the right resolution (or as I call it, size, lol) and transparency. If your file already has an icon referenced, please use that as a base. If your file does not, open similar EA files to see what icons they are using and use thos...

You would not believe how common it is for people to setup their TDESC Browser wrong. I’m not sure if it’s a case of not reading the bottom of the download description (easy to miss), or not understanding it, but either way it’s a common issue and deserves its own tutorial because of it.

This would have been out the day of release but we all know how that goes. xDD
Anyhow, this is very simple and does what the title says. I unlocked the interactions for all Special NPCs like Kylo, Rey, Agnon, Vi, and Hondo so that you can romance them or properly hangout with them, etc. It doesn't remove their status or specials roles, and when testing I didn't encounter any bugs. Enjoy!
Next: Lightsaber Replacement for Version 1 of the swordfighting mod. :D

I forgot to post this yesterday, but all of my mods are compatible (including CC wrench by some miracle)!
As usual with No Fade On Everything, an update will come as soon as I get the Star Wars pack. While I don't like the theme and would prefer not to buy it, I need to keep the mods updated and I need to study the files for future mods (like the new creation and purchase menus, I want to use them for my blacksmithing mod to do custom swords). I also have a couple of ...

Do not like tumblr for tutorial uploading and don't think I will do it again unless absolutely necessary. Oh, and I need to make an object tutorial, which is basically just cutting up the current ...

I have another minor update for Bloody Vampire Bites & Wounds coming after I finish this custom knitting tutorial so it works during a custom interaction from Vampires Can Kill by Zer0.

I made the last week a catch up day on currently existing mods or tutorials, and have also made some other discoveries, like custom baby onesies are possible! As usual a tutorial will be incoming soon, but I also need to make some injectors for it (otherwise everyone's custom onesies will conflict) and upload the cowplant and human ghost mods. Before those three releases is the Knittable CAS CC tutorial which should hopefully be done in the next day or so. Also, my toddler got ahold of my gla...

For those that missed that post, this is a server for creators of all types (CC and mods) and for people who like to have a place for mod updates. It has a tutorial directory, help and discussion channels, mod & cc news channels, as well as chatting and sharing channels. It's a nice little hangout for all people.

I know, I know, it's not Human Ghost or the other mods. But this only took me maybe...10 minutes or less to put this altogether. One of my friends wanted this gone and then another person mentioned it, so I decided to just do this last night right before bed (and it's a good thing I did, 2 more people mentioned it this morning).
This removes the Bits & Pieces Bucks requirement for the making candles interaction and the recipes themselves so you no longer have to collect or rec...

Yes! Another "impossible" solved by thepancake1 and I! We figured out how to make custom Styled Looks and it's quite easy to do. It supports CC as well, so CC creators will be able to create Styled Looks for their sets if they'd like. We would like to eventually do a program so it's even faster and easier for your average user, but we're not sure when this will happen. I really hope soon though as I know how useful a program could be for your average gameplay. Imagine putting together and sav...

Yes, we (thepancake1 and I) discovered how! And I’m happy to report it is very easy too despite past concerns with rings being VFX, which it turns out they aren’t, so this tutorial won’t be difficult. Depending on what you want to do, you will either need basic retexturing experience for just the ring textures, or experience with Blender in order to create a new plumbob mesh. This tutorial will not cover how to retexture or mesh, only creating a new plumbob, so please refer to beginner ...

Sorry for the wait everyone! Pancake and I discovered something amazing the day of the patch, which is that custom occult plumbobs are possible! This has been one of those Sims 4 modding problems that has plagued me since creating my Removed Occult Plumbob mod and trying to help others who were wanting a custom one. I thought for the longest time that they were VFX, but they aren't and are in fact meshes! I was so excited about our findings that I spent the last few days testing and writing a...

Hey everyone! I'll try to keep this short on what's been going on.
Misc
So to start off, I was quiet the last few weeks because I was working on finally launching my creator focused Discord server, which caused some issues. It always frustrated me that we had servers with tiny help sections that were thrown in last minute, but never a server focused entirely on creators with dedicated channel topics, etc.
So I, and then later some friends ...

This tutorial will teach you how to unlock general interactions that are normally hidden for your average sim.
The first thing you want to do is track down the interaction you need and add it to your package. You then need to give it a new instance, tuning ID, and name, which you can learn how to do in my other tutorial if you don’t know how. If you only want to override the interaction, the...

- 2020 September 10th - I missed an animation when working last time. I honestly had no idea there were two different animations, but it's now been included in the mod. I also changed the name of the .package to remove the "swimming" since it's the only transformation for mermaids and felt like a mouthful. So please make sure to track down the old one to delete it, then add the updated file.
So long story short to thos...

Here is a tutorial on how to start a new custom tuning file so you don't override EA's files. I will be covering two methods so you know what to do in any situation, and for this tutorial you need Sims4Studio.
Before we begin, I will explain instances and tuningIDs (to the best of my ability). The instance is the unique name of a file in hexadecimal format, and tuning IDs are the instance converted into decimal. The S= you see at the top right of files is the tuning ID, and y...

I've checked my mods and thankfully most of mine were unscathed and I only needed to do a few updates. Can't for sure say the same about my WIP mods but we'll see what happens when I get back to them, lol. This would have been out yesterday but I ran into a weird crashing bug when entering CAS, so couldn’t take pictures of the new icons. By the time I fixed it the day was late and I still had a few things to do, so decided to hold off on rushing.

So instead I will just explain this quick and easy compatibility method because it can also be used for other conflicting mods. This is written with object overrides in mind though, but I'll also link a tutorial on regular mods in case you want both featur...

Yes, I should be working on the mermaid mods, etc. but I was really inspired to work on this, and I'm finally getting the experience I've been wanting and been learning a lot with animations! My goal, now that I am done with the Bloody Bites mod, is to work when I can on what inspires me that moment, while keeping a layout of my plans guiding me. This way I don't burn myself out and can keep a good modding pace.
