The Sims 4 Mod: Decorate your Garden with Animated Sprinklers

The Sims 4 Mod: Decorate your Garden with Animated Sprinklers

Bakie came up with a solution to add animated sprinklers that you’ve seen in neighborhoods as decor into Build Mode. These sprinklers will not affect your garden or actually water harvestable plants but it’s a really nice object that’ll make your lot feel more alive.

The object can be found in 2 variants: with and without grass. As the sprinkler is invisible once you place it on your lot its easier to find it with the grass version of this object.

The sprinkler without grass will run non-stop once in live mode:

The sprinkler with grass comes with an on / off toggle in case you get tired of the sprinkler:

To add this object you’ll need to download it from Mod The Sims first. After you’ve downloaded it, extract the .rar file to Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > Mods folder. Make sure you have mods / custom content enabled in your game!

You can download this object by clicking the download button down below!

OPINION: The Sims 4 City Living got boring pretty fast

OPINION: The Sims 4 City Living got boring pretty fast

My City Living hype didn’t last for long. After just 2 weeks since The Sims 4 City Living release I find myself forcing to enter The Sims 4 just to realize that I don’t have anything fun to play with since I’ve explored everything the new Expansion Pack has to offer. The video down below basically explains my situation:

I wish I was the only one who no longer feels the excitement after The Sims 4 City Living Exploration Expansion Pack release, but other simmers have expressed similar concerns as well:

Some of course still like the pack and what it brings:

And some are caught in the middle:

 

My biggest issue with The Sims 4 City Living is that it’s torn apart from 2 pack concepts: exploring and living. It feels like the pack is somewhere in the middle while cutting features from both concepts. San Myshuno, which is the main feature of this Expansion Pack is probably the smallest world in The Sims Franchise and this is no joke. The Sims 1’s Old Town has more lots to explore than City Living’s San Myshuno:

The biggest reason why I got bored of this pack so quickly is that the living concept as well suffered major cuts. No buildable apartments, no elevators and you’re stuck to playing City Living features in San Myshuno. Basically, you can only play with most of the new features in the smallest world in The Sims Franchise.

11-05-16_2-08-35-am

If City Living was an art project I’d have no complains, but we’re talking about a 40$ video game expansion pack which’ll make you say ”ooooh this is pretty” for a few hours and a few days later you’ll rarely visit the world because of the same-old claustrophobic surroundings.

I know that your own creativity also plays a huge role in playing The Sims 4 but I just can’t get a feeling of creativity when everything is so small, limited and made by The Sims Team’s personal choice, leaving almost no space for me to do and make things my way.

I really hope future expansion packs don’t focus much on the environments and more on the gameplay and customization as City Living became boring pretty fast, at least to me. I’m happy some simmers still enjoy the pack and take their time to explore certain features but as a person who got bored after pulling an all-nighter to write a City Living Review I doubt I’ll visit San Myshuno for personal gaming sessions any time soon.

City Livings Tutorial: Apartments – Last steps before saving/uploading to gallery

City Livings Tutorial: Apartments – Last steps before saving/uploading to gallery

Written by SC Social member Shinzhia!

After making a well-decorated apartment, you might be one of those few who wanted to upload them as 1 full apartment room but can’t preserve the full build because of wall restrictions. I found a way to break that restriction and fix them accordingly so you are able to upload them as 1 room. The only draw back of this is probably a privacy issues inside that particular apartment in-game.

So if you still want to upload a full apartment without a missing door or wall, here’s the trick…

STEP 1: Find a corner of a particular room you want to be included when you upload to the gallery.

STEP 2: Using the sledgehammer, delete a corner wall of that room. It has to be the corner, not center wall.

STEP 3: Make sure that walls of that room are now detached from one another and that the room is broken. If you have a well-decorated room, you must find a way by deleting the decor and then just put it back after the process.

STEP 4: Select the broken wall and then drag them to fill in the empty corner you deleted.

STEP 5: Done! Make sure that when you select the apartment room the grid color selected the whole apartment. Now you can upload it as 1 full apartment.

Other tips:

1. For multi-story apartments, be sure that you put “Flat Square” flooring first before making 2nd and 3rd floor rooms so that when you upload them the rooms below and above are determined. When you have a see-through 2nd Floor of the 1st floor you don’t have to worry about that excluded room that is see-through. As long as you have a “flat square” first the people downloading them can easily put them down on their apartments. The see-through part will be a black/empty room without “flat square” flooring.

2. You cannot upload a 2 to 3 storey apartment unless it is penthouse, so be sure to name them properly per floor.

3. I would like to suggest that if you upload a full apartment, name them per apartment address so people downloading your build will know where to place them.

The Sims 4: New Update + Patch Notes! (November 15th, 2016)

ts4e3logo

The Sims Team has released a brand new Update for The Sims 4!

To download the latest version of The Sims 4, simply open your Origin program and if the game doesn’t update automatically, right click on The Sims 4 and select ”Update”.

In case you have Mods or Custom Content, the game will automatically disable them for you after first launching The Sims 4 after the update. To re-enable all your Mods and Custom Content, select the Settings option in the Menu and select Settings. Under the”Other” section you’ll find the ”Enable Custom Content and Mods” option. Check it and restart your game in order for it to take effect!

Patch Notes

Update: 11/15/2016 – PC Version 1.24.112.1010 / Mac Version 1.24.112.1210

Hello Simmers.  Happy November!  Did you know that today is National Clean Out Your Refrigerator Day?  No? Well we did.  In honor of this momentous holiday we have “cleaned out” some issues:

General Issues:

  • Improved general performance when having a large number of files in the Tray folder.
  • Fixed an issue causing some save games to return immediately to the map screen when attempting to enter a lot.
  • Your paintings, photos and terrain paints will now persist when transferring from the Gallery.
  • Addressed an issue that was affecting some players’ saves where restaurants / retail lots could not be open/closed by pressing the open/closed button.
  • No more homey lot trait buff quickly cycling when performing related activities.
  • Stats for an adopted Sim appear in their Simology Panel.
  • All you kleptomaniacs out there:
    • If you don’t get caught, the stuff will now appear in your inventory.
    • If you do get caught, do the right thing.
  • Dance, dance to your heart’s content! But, when the music stops on the radio, so will your Sim.
  • Call Jasmine. It’s ok. She will no longer knock endlessly.
  • If you’re running Windows XP you can now use the Gallery again, but seriously, you should really consider upgrading.
  • Food can be dragged into all worlds now. Dragged food… sounds yummy.

Get to Work Issues, we addressed

  • The Police Chief is squeaky clean and is beyond reproach.  He can no longer be a suspect in a crime.

City Living Issues, we addressed

  • We have fixed the issue of babies getting stuck in apartments; stuck babies will be unstuck, and babies will hereby no longer get stuck again.  We hope… for everyone’s sake.
  • Festival, anyone?
    • Going to a festival, but worried about gaining weight?  No worries, Sims will no longer continuously order and eat food at the food stalls.  If you’ve already packed on those pounds… exercise, exercise, exercise.
    • More than one Sim in a household can now get festival whims when traveling to a festival, even if it has already begun.
    • Ladies, outdoor bathrooms are now open.
  • The Trophy of 73, which you can only get after winning 73 basketball competitions (there is really and truly no other way to get it), is no longer locked in Build Buy Mode.
  • Keep at it, you might catch the elusive Pufferfish in San Myshuno.
    • And now, all trait images will appear for a ghost who died by Pufferfish when you add the ghost to your household.
  • Politics buff now has words.  The best words.
  • If your child Sim is nice, and plays well with others, the neighbor child Sim might come over to visit.
  • Have no fear, you can ignore a neighbor’s complaint without affecting your relationship with your roomie. And, that’s not all… your Sim will listen to complaints and the interaction will not drop from the queue.

Be good to each other folks!

Modder tries to make The Sims 4 Multiplayer

Modder tries to make The Sims 4 Multiplayer

UPDATE: Simmythesim wrote a new Reddit post about his progress on The Sims 4 Multiplayer Mod:

It’s been four days since I first posted about making The Sims 4 multiplayer. I’ve since worked on my mod and here are the changes!

First off, there’s no more massive data loss when transferring data between games. In the first ever video you can see that the game states are synced somewhat, but not tightly synced with one another.

Apparently, there was a major bug where every other message the first game instance sent to the second game instance was completely lost and not received on the second game instance. This has been fixed, and the sims should now be performing the same actions at the same locations most of the time.

Second, the second game instance can now send commands to the server, it can now change the time speed, queue interactions, and change the active sim. Previously, only the first instance could affect the game state. What good is multiplayer if the other clients can’t interact with the server?

Third, which is the news you’ve all been waiting for, the game state can now be synced across multiple computers! This took quite a while, because I’ve never touched networking before.

Simmythesim, The Sims 4 modder who just recently blessed us with a mod that fixes a simulation lag in the game released a video of his first multiplayer test!

As you can see in the video down below, he opened two TS4 games to see how one game window will respond to the other. From what I’ve seen a Sim from the first screen will repeat almost the same interaction or movement as a Sim on the second screen. This doesn’t necessarily mean that this multiplayer project will ever be realized but it’s still interesting to see talented modders ”unlock” features that were planned for the game years ago.

Join our new website project – Gaming Community!

gcfontlogosmall

I’m super excited to announce that our new website project called Gaming Community is currently in development! Before I explain which people we’re looking for to join the Gaming Community team, let me tell you a few words about the idea of this website.

Gaming Community won’t be just an ordinary video gaming website that focuses on delivering news. Gaming Community is going to be a website powered by enthusiastic fans who enjoy reporting on their favorite video game. I’m sure most of you don’t like reading articles and news posts delivered to you by people who don’t really know their way around a certain video game. For example, when it comes to IGN’s and Gamespot’s news reporting for The Sims franchise, it’s really sloppy. They give out updates when a new Expansion Pack is announced but that’s about it. This is not what Gaming Community will be about.

Each Gaming Community editor will be assigned to one or two video games they really love playing. Let’s say you can’t wait for Mass Effect Andromeda to come and you played all 3 previous Mass Effect games. As a Mass Effect fan you meet all the requirements to join the Gaming Community and write news articles about the game. Your role as a Mass Effect editor would be to keep readers updated whenever a new trailer, blog or any important piece of information gets released.

So, you’re probably wondering, what do you get from all this? We won’t be giving our editors a monthly salary as the site has yet to grow, but that doesn’t mean you won’t get to promote your own content. If, for example, you have a blog post or a video dedicated to a video game you’re assigned to, you’ll be free to share them on Gaming Community whenever you want to. We’re just getting started so you’ll only get better benefits as we grow.

Who can join the site?

Down below we’ll list all the requirements a news editor should meet. Make sure you mention all the skills and qualities that would be appreciated for your role and don’t forget to mention which game you’d like to write about!

Requirements:

  • Above average English language knowledge.
  • 18 + years old.
  • Own a game / plan to purchase an upcoming game you’ll write about.

It would be good if:

  • You have fair knowledge of WordPress
  • You worked previously on writing news and articles

You can send your applications to gamingcommunitynet@gmail.com. The deadline for sending applications is December 2nd.

I can’t wait to see how this project turns out and I’m looking forward to your applications!
