TL;DR: My mods will now be uploaded on Curseforge. My Tumblr blog and my Patreon page will still be used to divulge news, but everything will be provided from Curseforge.This is just to announce that I'm gonna be moving all my mods to Curseforge. This is something that's been on my mind for a while, but I wanted to wait and make sure the platform was well received by the community.See, Tumblr isn't really meant for stuff like this. I can't upload files directly, and if I edit a post all previous reblogs will remain unchanged. Th...
Mod Update - 08/22/23
Automatic PreferencesIMPORTANT: If you were playing on a previous version of this mod, your sims will lose all current progress on their preferences when you update. They won't lose any preferences they already have.I made some large changes which - being honest - should have happened before the full release of the mod, if I had given myself time to actually test it properly.I apologize for the inconvenience, but I think it's better for the future of the mod that I make these changes now.- Added Communication, Fashion and Characteristic...

AUTOMATIC PREFERENCES
This mod changes how sims gain Likes/ Dislikes during gameplay.In a vanilla game, the player receives a choice prompt whenever a sim runs an interaction while in a certain mood. It’s not a very nuanced system, and giving the player complete control makes it quite boring.ACTIVITIES AND MUSICSims will slowly build up their Activity and Music Likes/Dislikes while interacting with the world around them, based on their mood. A small icon will pop up periodically over your sim’s head to indicate this progress.Upon reaching a certain threshold, th...

Mod Update - 03/01/23
This is a small one again, sorry!

She might not be very trustw...
Taking a Break
Hello! This post is mainly for my patrons, but I'm making it public so the information is available for everyone.Lately I've been kind of in a creative slump, as evident by my lack of updates. This time of year is always stressful, and leaving you guys without any new content is stressing me out even further.For this month, I'm pausing billings for all my current patrons, which means you won't be charged if you are already subscribed. It doesn't feel right to receive the support when I know I won't have anything to show ...

This was a small bugfix-focused patch, so most of my mods were unaffected.Run, Don't Jog!- A bug preventing sims from autonomously running over long distances was fixed by the patch.

Run Don't Jog- No longer requires the XML Injector to work;- Compatibility with other mods has been improved - you no longer need to choose between multiple versions;- There's a "Run Here Together" interaction in the game that is not properly implemented.
