Foraging - WIP Update - Discussion

There were SO many great ideas with the last discussion about foraging! Here's what I've put together based on your suggestions:

• Adding all basic berries, tubers, and mushrooms.
• Berries will be found in shrubs, tubers in low shrubs, and mushrooms near trees or dead wood (I may do one, the other, or both I'm not sure yet). 
• Adding insects that are required for campfire recipes (all beetles I believe). Uncommon and rare bugs will be harder to find. I'm toying ...

ROM Separated Items - WIP Update

I got almost everything done this weekend but the double bed frame. I have the rugs and a bunch of clutter, jars, and books to decorate with. I've been sick with a stomach bug since yesterday so I need to rest but I'll get these posted soon as my stomach is not hurting so bad. Until then here's a screenshot of what I've finished so far, the double bed frame is a variation of the canopy frame which I need  to complete next. :)

Realm of Magic - Discussion

I'm separating a bunch of clutter, the beds and rugs, and adding slots to surfaces as usual. If you all have some suggestions for what you want to see me separate specifically or create from this pack let me know below. I can't guarantee I'll get to them all, but I'll do my best to incorporate what I can! :D

Project Goals & Update

This month I'm just going to focus on separating some clutter (esp. from the RoM pack), my candle crafting mod, and the foraging mod. I'm not going to be doing any harvestables because I need to find and fix some issues before making any new ones. The harvestables also need an update (nothing major) so I'll be looking at that too.

In between that stuff I'm going to working on updating mods so I can finally get caught up. I only have a handful that need fixing/updating and most of them I...

Beds - UPDATED...again...

Okay, I THINK I got everything updated now lol. The single mattresses were uncomfortable because I cloned them from a cheap bed and forgot to change the stats on them. The only ones I saw that needed edits were the Can Do and Whispering Wicker beds. If I missed anything let me know!

Discussion - Foraging

The 'Foraging' interaction was part of the chicken egg harvestable but I want to make it it's own mod. I'm looking to add some other objects to what you can find when you forage, what would you like to see? 

I want to stay away from stuff that doesn't make too much sense like apples or fish, definitely potatoes and the new harvestables from the magic expansion. 

In a previous discussion where I mentioned this, we talked about being able to forage for wood and make it a r...

XML Injector - UPDATE

This isn't my mod but it's important to have the most updated version of this because a lot of my mods rely on it. 

Scumbumbo has not been online recently so Triplis has updated this mod instead. Please follow the link above to find the new download - it is NOT on the main download page, it's in the comments and should be at the top of the page if you follow this link.

I have tested it with a couple of my mods and it seems to work fine but if you have any issues let me know s...

October Lot

So I know I need to finish fleshing out Willow Creek but I was wondering if you all would rather I do a witch lot you can play with in the new magic world :D

If I do a witch lot it will be more geared toward a nature witch. I'm thinking a little cottage in  the woods with plenty of garden and space for herbs. Probably a little more woodsy and secluded. Maybe make it Off the Grid functional?

If I do the Willow Creek lot it will likely be a home in Courtyard Lane. I can totally...

UPDATE - Vendor Stall Tweaks

Updated for patch.

UPDATED - Island Living Beds

I think I got all of  them, I fixed an issue with the single beds not animating properly when a sim got into them. If I missed any of them let me know!

• Can Do Canopy & Drift Away 
• Whispering Wicker

UPDATE - Outdoor Shower and Tub

There was an issue with these disappearing on placement that I think I fixed and I made the shower Off the Grid compatible!

Pre-Releases Available!

• Bog Mud Puddles

WIP Updates

This is taking forever I know but I'm almost done. I was in way over my head with this one, the lot was HUGE to start and the layout I picked was super complicated but it was totally worth it. There are numerous areas to host weddings, parties, and receptions. There's not a ton of clutter because I wanted this to be customizable depending on the type of event your sims will be hosting. There are a few bathrooms, a kitchen for catering, several bar areas, a rooftop bar area, 2 lounge areas, an...

WIP Update

So this is done, I just need to make a couple of recipes to go with it so you have something to use the eggs with. I'll have this and one or two recipes up for Early Access this weekend. 

I think I figured out how to fix the corn, so I should have those up for pre-release this weekend as well.

For Lot-owners, I've got the foundation to the building laid out and I'm going to start decorating it this weekend. I'm a little sad that S4S hasn't updated for Moschino stuff and I can...

WIP Update - Separated Beds

So I got totally carried away with these this weekend. You will have almost all variations of mattress and frames for all size beds. This was a tremendous amount of work but I couldn't help myself - there were so many lovely patterns and textures I couldn't NOT make them all. I'll get these uploaded tomorrow sometime because I still need to separate the mattress patterns.

UPDATED - Inventory Not Shared

I reverted back to using an override file instead of a script file so please re-download! Also removed the digital frames option until I can test it more.

Pre-Releases Now Available!

• Fishing Cooler 
• Purple Carrot 
• Yellow Carrot 
• Chili Pepper

WIP Update - August Lot

So, back to the wedding venue lot. I think it actually worked out in my favor that my laptop died with the original lot on it because now I get to use those new windows from the moschino pack for this lot and they are going to be PERFECT!

Here's a link to the lot that I'm going to try to emulate:  http://www.thefoundry.info/discover 

It's not going to be exactly the same but the idea is for it to...

WIP's Update

I have a bunch of slot overrides, separated rugs, and an edit to the Kava Bowl coming for Early Access either tonight or tomorrow. Once I've done that I'm going to release more stuff for Pre-Release. I meant to do this the other day but completely ran out of time.

So the clothesline - I was originally going to completely change the animation for it because I was having issues with it - you can see what it's supposed to look like in the image above but here's what happens during the anim...

UPDATE - Plain Place Settings

These were previously known as 'Basic Place Settings'

I completely re-made this so be sure to delete the old files and install the new ones. I made some changes to remove the original override file, making it easier to update later both for patches and for more add-ons.

I also separated the actual place settings and kept them in their individual files so you can pick and choose what you want in your game.

I created a tutorial on how to tablescape and added a link to it in th...

UPDATED - Unlocked Artifacts

I fixed some broken tunings in one of the artifact resources and changed the name of this file so be sure to delete the old version and install the new one!

UPDATE - Pumpkin Carving Table Requires Pumpkins

Tested and updated the naming on these - delete the old versions and install the new one!

UPDATE - Eat Harvestables Fills More Hunger

Just tidied this file up and changed the names so be sure to delete the old version and install this new one instead!

UPDATE - Refrigerated Fishing Cooler

It didn't look like this needed any tuning updates but I did adjust the buff chances.

Also, Lot Owners should replace the cooler I used on the Caldera Cove lot with this. It will work as a fridge to store your fresh caught fish and food and allow you to take it out fishing with you. It's perfect for Off-the-Grid living!!!

 AND this is now available for 2019-08-04 05:05:09 +0000 UTC View Post

UPDATE - Inventory Not Shared

Please check out the notes for this on the download page but you'll only be able to use one of the file options in your game. I believe having multiple file versions of this script was causing conflicts so I updated this mod with an 'ALL' version that allows you to have all of the inventory edits I've made so far instead of choosing only one. 

Be sure to delete the old versions and install the new one and please let me know if you have any further issues with this!

WIP & Mods Update

Mod updates are coming along slowly. I mentioned in my last message that my laptop died on me so I've been without it all week and with the new job commute I haven't had much time on my desktop. My old laptop was unfortunately not repairable so I purchased a new one and it was delivered yesterday. I'll be bringing it with me to work so I can update/create stuff when I'm not busy. There's so much traffic everywhere I spend my lunch at my desk anyway, it will be nice to have something fun to do...

WIP Update

I know I have a bunch of mods that need updating, I'll get to those during the week and try to have them up next weekend. I put them off a little longer to do something a little more fun...

...and I made the Sulani deco mailboxes functional and also made a single version just in case multiple boxes was too many. I made a Sulani terrain pack, a mod that changes the seasonality of the Sulani harvestables to be year-round in warmer climates, and a mod that makes a counter sink usable off-t...

Hello Again!

I'm sorry I was MIA guys, I was so stressed out. We had the most awful time moving but things have settled down a little and we're finally in the new place. Yesterday I got internet connected and today I got my desktop setup. I'm going to rummage through my drive to find what I worked on via my laptop before it died so I can get it uploaded. I work tomorrow but Tuesday I'll be able to catch up a bit, which seems like a good day because apparently there's an update :)

I'm still trying to...

Off The Grid & Recipes

I'm going to make a quick version of some updates to the Off-The-Grid items so that playing on a lot with that trait is more manageable. Some of these will be a public release because the system is so broken, but others will be patron releases.

Once I get these basic fixes/mods done I really want to work on an Off-The-Grid system that allows you to use all your appliances/plumbing but requires regular maintenance like a water pressure tank and water supply (well or spring). Have you all...

Important Announcement!

Hey all! I haven't been able to do much because there was more stuff to take care of on the house and moving than I anticipated. I also found out today our house wont be ready until July 8th which means no desktop until then. We're gonna be moving around crashing at friends and family's for the next couple weeks so I probably wont get much done except updating my mods, unlocking objects from Island living, and working on some off the grid adjustments. The lot should be ready by the 7th, I'm g...
