NO LONGER NEEDED | Cheat Console Fix - Public Release

A recent patch caused the cheat console to block all game input when it is open. This is just a small mod to undo that until the next patch. SimGuruNick has already stated it wasn't intentional.

Note: If you downloaded the pre-release version, please re-download. This version includes a fix for the story-mode CAS being blank.

Instructions:

Download the .package file to anywhere in your Mods folder.

Cheat Console Fix Pre-Release

Some of you might have noticed the cheat console blocks game input in the newest patch. This reverts that because, well, it's annoying. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ


Save the package file to your Mods folder. Enjoy :)

Clean UI Update + Moschino Icon

This update fixes a glitch with the travel and photography menus, and adds a classic version of the Moschino stuff pack icon.

BLACK SCREEN FIX:

If your menu has a black screen where the animatic should be, open your options.ini file and set the "animaticpack" value to 1000.

Due to it getting linked so much, I've deleted the files for it. Please always use TwistedMexi.com to ensure you're using the latest version. Google will usually send you to the wrong post.

T.O.O.L. Pre-Release

What is TOOL? Well, TOOL... Takes Objects Off Lot. It's a way to give players more real-estate for objects, and gives you 100% control over the objects position and rotation, on or off the lot.

New Features:

  • Point & Click Move - Lets you mark an object as active, which lets you then shift-click where you want it to go and TOOL will immediately move the object to that position.

Another peak at T.O.O.L.

TOOL is still in development, decided to rework some of the interface, and added new visuals for things like rotation.

I'm also splitting out the Move functionality to separate "Move" and "Elevate" options, so it's a bit less confusing to move an object.

Working to get it out soon :)

Clean UI Public Release

Don't like the new UI, or is it even causing migraines? No worries with this mod - get the original minimalist UI back with a single package download.    

This version works in all languages and is compatible with UI Cheat Extensions.

I hope you all enjoy! Thank you for the support!

Edit: Woops, a conflict with UI Cheat Extensions worked its way back in, but it's gone now. If your UI is missing in game, please re-download!

Coastal Basements & Pools

Get that extra real-estate back! This mod unlocks basements and pools for coastal terrain (ocean lots)

Fair warning, this mod comes with a few quirks so it's mainly intended for builders. I'll patch out what I can in future updates.

Why can't I place things on the ocean surface?

Better Exceptions v1.04 Hotfix

Fairly small update to BE to help remove false positives toward WW scripts, and closed a loophole where some invalid tuning mods might be missed. This should improve BE's accuracy even further.

Also made sure that the tuning scanner only activates if invalid tuning was found, which will cut down on reporting times for those with older hard drives.

As always, you can either grab it from below or just let the game auto-update for you at next launch.

Expect another update so...

Coastal Basements & Pools Pre-Release

Going to be short here as I have errands, will detail it more with the official release.

This is mainly for builders currently as it comes with some quirks, such as not being able to route using ocean ladders (working on it) and sims walking under water on the lot. Swim interactions still work fine outside of the lot boundaries. Pool floats should be placed from sims inventory to avoid frustration trying to get it on the water level.

In many cases you'll need to clear the lot be...

Exciting new update to share with everyone, a few of you may have already received a version of this but you'll still receive an update notice as I've made a few changes.

If you already have BE installed, you'll receive an update automatically when you start your game. You'll just need to restart the game for changes to take effect. Automatic updates will become available a few minutes after this post goes live. Otherwise you can grab it manually at the bottom of this post.

Vampire BugFix - Routing Issues and Conflict Resolution

Quick bugfix for the vampire issues, looks like someone accidentally removed some code from the vampire tuning.

I've added it back and packaged it for a quick bugfix mod. Keep in mind once EA fixes this, you should go ahead and remove the mod.

I built this this morning, and found out Simvasion got a bugfix out as well. I figured I'd go ahead and post mine to help people find it, but...

Island Living Cheats

 As always, I strive to be your first source for cheats. There will certainly be more when the pack drops but for now I've found two new cheats, one of which lets you trigger Volcanic Eruptions :) 

 They're available on TwistedMexi.com    

I've added pack options to the dropdown to make finding the new cheats easier.

TwistedMexi.com Now Live!

So if we're being honest, patreon isn't that great for maintaining a collection of downloads. It's pretty hard to find older posts.   For that reason, I've created a dedicated website for cheats and mods. I'm still adding some of the more obscure cheats currently but once I'm caught up, I've designed the site in a way that will let me add every new cheat almost immediately - and I mean every cheat.
In addition, I've added a feature that will tell you exactly which cheats require ...

Better Exceptions New Report Format (Pic Preview)

So I've added a lot of new info to the report and in doing so, the simple text reports were getting more and more difficult to read. So I've swapped them to an HTML report, which lets me give you a cleaner interface and enables more advanced features like linking you to help resources.

The next version of BE will be able to tell you directly which tuning mods have issues, if any, so you'll know exactly where to start when trying to fix your LastException.

I'm working hard to get...

Tsuki Early Hands-On

Is this a pre-release? No. I don't consider this a finished mod. I have more items planned but Better Exceptions turned into a bigger project than I had imagined, so I figured I'd let patrons get their hands on what I had in the meantime. I hope to have the finished pack -which will hopefully be the complete "Why Are You Sad" collection - out in June.

Quick thanks to all of you!

Apparently my patreon started blowing up after the release of Better Exceptions. I didn't have access to my desktop for a few days but now I'm back at home and have some things to work on with BE. Excited to get back to work and thanks everyone for the continued support :D

[FIX] Destroy Object Cheat
