Hobby Aspirations Bundle 2
I added 6 more aspirations to Hobby category. I decided to upload it as a separate mod, so you don't need to have previous one for that one to work. This time I took a bit different approach to aspirations in general, so you'll see only 1 phase insted of 3 or 4.New aspirations: Art Lover - focuses on watching art and visiting museums, a few interactions were added to allow any Sim discussing some art topics (Friendly cat. > Interests > Art Lover) Music Lover - focuses on listening to the music, the one from radio, but also live performa...

Join Afterschool Activities - interaction Add-on
It turns out that at some point interaction to Join Afterschool Activities became unavailable for children if you don't own certain packs. I am sure it was base game compatible when I first created my mod for Afterchool Activities, because I tested it back then on base game. Later on I didn't test in anymore for base game only so I didn't realize this was the case.I created this small add-on to enable this option on the phone for children.Install only if you don't see this option in your game already.Requires XML injector (the c...

Update (aspirations mostly + translations)
As I mentionned in the post with patch information, a small change was done to all aspirations with the last patch - additional hidden buff informing about completion of aspiration - I guess it's for some stats purpose.You could safely play with my mods without this change, but still I had to update it, so here it is.

You can still use safely all my mods, cause all are compatible with the latest patch.However - I'll need to update my aspirations because a small thing was added to them (a buff - probably for some in-game stats for completed aspirations).

Patch Info + Updates Summary: Scripting removal/other updates
All my mods are still compatible with the last patch (1.93.146.) as this was only an update for Gallery filter.But today I uploaded several updates - NOT PATCH RELATED.

So please, make sure old versions of my mods are deleted b...
