Paris World Mod | v1.01

Pack your bags, we're taking a trip to Paris!

This mod transforms Britechester (Discover University) into a beautiful Paris-inspired world. With the help of bbygyal123, I've created a unique experience that goes beyond just an aesthetic backdrop. I hope this new world will inspire gorgeous stories for you & your sims! ♡

Beautiful Street Decor

The streets are decorated with Parisian buildings, cafes with outdoor seating, and more, including iconic Morris columns showcasing beautiful ads designed by bbygyal123.

Functional Parfumerie

An interactive shop where you can purchase functional perfumes. There are 4 different scents with custom buffs. Storefront window design by bbygyal123.

Functional Pâtisserie

An interactive shop where you can purchase macarons and petits gateaux. So far you can order 3 sweet treats, but I plan to expand the menu in future updates! Storefront window design by bbygyal123.

Foxbury Campus Overhaul

I personally hated the sleek modern look of Foxbury, so I've replaced the buildings to look more like Britechester university. Note: I did my best to preserve the core Foxbury object interactions, but my focus was aesthetics first, so there may be a slightly 'imperfect' experience for sims attending Foxbury university.

Coffee Cart Overhaul

The university coffee carts have a new design and a new expanded menu, featuring food & drinks from various packs such as croissants, crepes, macarons and café lattes. (Only food from packs you own will work.)

Paris-Inspired CC

New objects that you can use to decorate your own builds, including a functional espresso machine for the obligatory french cafe. Find cc in build/buy by searching "paris" or "lijoue".

INSTALLATION NOTES 

(IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!)

This mod has two components that need to be installed in two different locations.

Mods

The folder called "Paris World CC" should be placed directly in your "Mods" folder like normal cc. 

Areas

The folder called "Areas" has three .world files that correspond to the 3 neighbourhoods in Britechester.

These .world files must be placed in the "areas" folder for EP08 (Discover University), replacing the EA world files with the exact same names. The path to find the correct folder will vary depending on your setup, but it should be something like this:

Applications / The Sims 4 / delta / EP08 / Worlds / Areas

OR

c:/ Program Files / Electronic Arts / The Sims 4 / delta / EP08 / Worlds / Areas

Please note, this is NOT in the same “the sims 4” folder that has mods. 

For Mac users, you have to right-click The Sims 4 app icon and select "show package contents" to see the folder. From there the path is the same as above.

The three .world files are OVERRIDES which means you should be REPLACING the original EP08 .world files. If you don't see the exact same .world files to overwrite, then you're in the wrong place. 

PLEASE BACKUP YOUR ORIGINAL EP08 FILES BEFORE REPLACING THEM.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Usually when there's a patch for new pack, the game will automatically revert back to the original EA .world files. All you have to do is replace them with the modded files again.

*Please send me a private message if you need help installing the mod correctly. *

Lighting

THIS MOD IS BUILT WITH SUNBLIND BY SOFTERHAZE.  THESE ARE OVERRIDES. If there's a different lighting mod you want to use, you would have manually edit the files yourself. Each .world file functions independently, so they shouldn't impact your other worlds. This means you can have Milk Thistle lighting mod in Willow Creek, but Britechester will still have Sunblind lighting.
