POLL - Custom Recipes

So I actually decided to do this right away so I don't forget lol

The last set of recipes were all using custom harvestables and I wanted to get some feedback about what you all think about custom recipes and ingredients.

I've listed the options below - please keep in mind the last two versions will require a little extra work because I would have to make a second version of every recipe.

Let me know what you think!

Project Goals

Hey All!

This month I'm going to work on that recipe set I wanted to release last month. I guess it's technically still spring so it works! You can view some inspiration pics above. I'll definitely be using some custom harvestables for the main recipe but I'm toying with the idea of making a version with no ingredients. I'll be releasing a poll later today and you guys can tell me what you think :)

Part of the recipe set includes some table decor to match the theme so you can put ...

May Lot Poll

I want to do another interesting lot so tell me which you'd prefer:

Beachside bar for Sulani. It'll replace the Lagoon Look lot and should replace The Sand Bar as far as functionality. 

or 

Older tree house in Selvadorada on the cliff. I might even try to make a valley and river if I can get it to look good. I'm thinking the Jungle Bungalow lot.

WIP Updates

Sooooooo, the monthly lot and market objects may come a little later than anticipated but I have a REALLY good reason. 

After I finished updating the Foraging Mod yesterday I went back to wrapping up the market objects for this month. I started separating the tank from the aquarium to use as a display for the fish market and then I thought - how cool would it be to have this tank display that people could auto buy fish from like a retail fridge and the produce stands?

So I sp...

UPDATED - Foraging Mod

There were a couple of problems with this so I fixed them - thank you all for reporting your issues! 

There were some more things that I kept thinking I wanted to add/edit to this mod so I figured I'd do that while I was in there updating it; you can see the list of what I did below. I was going to edit the success rate of food foraging but decided against it after playing around with it a little. I feel it should be a little harder for the average Sim to forage since it requires s...

WIP Updates

Hey all, sorry it's been a while since I had an update I've just been busy irl trying to keep keep up with everything - as I'm sure a lot of you are doing right now. I hope you are all staying safe and healthy!

I've finally caught up on the major updates. I just realized today that the fishing cooler needs an update and a new download link so I'll be working on that simultaneously with the market objects I talked about releasing. I ended up having to re-mesh the barrel displays to work ...

News About Tiers

I just want to let everyone know I'm changing the name of the Early Access tier to WIP Access because it represents that tier more accurately. I'll be going through and updating posts with the new tag so please bare with me. I should have it updated by Friday!

DOWNLOAD

People who downloaded this previously will need to delete the old version and install this one instead.

I made quite a few updates to this, including adjusting the egg spawn seasons and making the chickens spawn at random intervals instead of having them hang around all day. Recipes to come!

Next Lot Poll

Okay guys, I am BURNT out building residential, I need to do something different so I figured I'd do a grocery store. Nothing big mind you, something kind of mom & pop style using those objects I showed you a while back, you can see an image below. 


I don't want to put it in Willow Creek because we already have a market there, although I have a build I did previously for Mag...

Okay guys, I'm trying something new for the Pre-Release level and up. When I have large updates for multiple files I'm going to be offering Patrons a bulk download, meaning I'll include all the updated files in a single download for you.

The bulk download file below has all of the harvestable updates in it. I've made numerous fixes, updates, and changes that I'm going to sum up below:

  • Fixed some textures inside of the Garden Plants files
  • Updated all plants for Tiny ...

Quick Update

Hey guys, I've been working all week on harvestable updates, an add-on for the foraging mod, a mod for crafting menus, and an overhaul of all the woodworking recipes to use wood as an ingredient. As I was updating the harvestables one thing just kind of led into another and ya know, more mods lol. I'm also hoping to have the recipe cookbook and all the recipes uploaded as well.

There were a bunch of small things I found that I missed previously with the harvestables like an update with ...

UPDATE

Harvestable Season Adjustments

So here are is the first version of the updated Season Adjustment files for all EA harvestables. I've made changes to everything except for harvestables like the money tree, emotional berries etc. 

In general I've made all seasons more realistic for all EA plants, including edits (like my custom harvestables) that make it so some plants will still have foliage outside of their harvesting seasons. I've also updated the number of harvestables yo...

WIP Update & Poll

Harvestables 

So after playing around with it for a couple of days I was not able to get the plants to show up normally indoors and not have super dark foliage.

I can make most of the plants look normal indoors if I make some edits, but if I do it will prevent the plants from moving in the wind. Although it doesn't look bad, it's super noticeable when there's a storm or a windy day.

I can leave them as they are but any harvestables I make, as well as ...

DOWNLOAD

This is an old file I had been meaning to get updated and added to the new site but couldn't find the files. After scrounging around my SimsFileShare I found it!

I've updated the slots on this and converted the 2 sets of standing books into bookends.

WIP Update & Quick Poll

I'm still working on Harvestable Override updates but I have so much coming. I'm condensing the files down to 3, I'm updating meshes, adding more harvestable adjustments, and I think I found a way to fix the issue with harvestables turning dark indoors - I'll be testing it out today. 

Because I'm changing so much I think this will come out as a Pre-Release before I release it publicly.

Until I wrap that up I have a quick poll for you all about bees. When they came ou...

News & Updates

Hey all! This post is long overdue but I had the flu pretty bad still while I was trying to visit family in Oklahoma so I was out of it.

First off you all know that I've had less time lately for creating, and the most recent need for updates on many of my objects has set me back both with creating and getting downloads posted. After some thought and discussion I've decided to enlist the help of my daughter, ChibiLotus, to help create new posts and maintain my website. She'll be taking c...

Quick Update

I've been sick since Monday and I have an early morning flight to Oklahoma tomorrow so you all probably won't hear from me until later this weekend with a more in-depth update regarding fixes and current projects.

Pre-Release: I'll be releasing the next batch of items by late Sunday night

Early Access:  As of this morning it looks like Sims4Studio updated and I'll be able to separate beds and create some clutter from Tiny Living for next week.

Lot Owners: I'll likely ha...

UPDATED

The link above will take you to my Comfort > Bedroom page. I've finally finished updating everything in this section for DU and ROM, including pillows and bed linens. 

I've removed all long bed frames and sheets, now all bed frames and sheets are a standard size.

I spent a bit of time cleaning up descriptions, standardizing prices, and renaming files to keep the catalog and my mods folder tidy. Please make sure you delete any old files and replace them with the new ones! View Post
