Update on Everything - Discussion

Apologies I didn't get more done the last couple of days, I was down Tuesday night and yesterday with a bad headache but I'm back at it today. I also wanted to let you all know I'm going to be MIA tomorrow until Sunday. It's my birthday and my husband and brother are taking me on a mini-vacay to the beach :D

Anyway, on to updates!!!

Beds: 

I haven't seen a batch fix for the beds yet so I'm going to start the task of updating them myself, starting with the most recent versions and working my way backward. If you haven't heard of this issue, it seems the beds need an additional tag to be placed on a University Housing lot without crashing.

I may or may not be updating the old versions of my beds. The old versions all have copied textures, which means they take up a TON of space in-game. I also made different versions of some of the beds that I don't support, like the long versions. The plan has always been to re-make them as texture dependent so they take up very little space, update them for cats & dogs, and extend all headboards slightly to leave space for pillow deco. I would also like to make some add-ons like toddler frames/mattresses. So I've decided it's probably time to start that project.

I think the re-made beds are going to be sent straight to Pre-Release because they will be new objects, but I'll be using some of the resources from the original objects. Let me know in the comments below which beds you'd like to see me work on first, I want to get the most frequently used separated beds updated first!

Slotted Surfaces: 

There are a couple of surfaces that I haven't been able to update yet; the Split-Panel Display, the Caress Bookshelf, and the Borded Text Bookshelf. The Split-Panel Display is being impossible. I've deleted all slots and it's still having an issue so I'll likely need to re-make that object. The other two files are old objects from my Tumblr that I don't have in my game anymore. If you'd like to send me a copy of the file I'll go ahead and fix it and send it back to you!

Dining Table Slot Overrides: 

I'm going to see about getting these updated today.

Other Stuff:

There are some other objects that need updating but because they're not a game-breaking issues I likely won't be looking at those until later next week. 

Foraging Mod:

Ok, let me tell you about MY luck. So I went through all the trouble of testing all the pieces of this mod out in game. The world object tree I was using to test it on was displaying all the forage interactions perfectly! So I fleshed out all the tuning and left adding it to all the individual world objects for last because I had already tested it and knew that part of it worked. Nope. That tree was LITERALLY the only world plant I could get the tuning to work on properly. Seriously. I couldn't get it to work with ANY world objects - I looked and cloned different types of objects and NADA. I was not happy.

What does this mean? It means that you'll only be able to forage for stuff on a lot. What I'm going to do to compensate for that is create some new forageable plants (which are just copies of plants in-game already) that cost 0 simoleons so you can get a similar experience foraging at no cost on a lot. I'm really sorry about this guys, I'm still going to keep trying to get it to working off lot but until them at least you'll have something to play with right now. As long as I don't run into any other issues 🤞🏼 I'll have that available later tonight or tomorrow morning before I leave.

Anything else:

I'll be creating an updated list when I get back Sunday of stuff that needs updating so if I missed or forgot about something please feel free to let me know below or send me a PM. There was A LOT of issues with the last patch so I'm sure I missed something. 

Thanks everyone!!!
