Exciting Updates and Sneak Peeks: A Look into Our Progress and Upcoming Mods!

Good morning, everyone! It's time to share some progress we've made throughout this week!! Starting with the website launch! I'm thrilled with the community's reception; we've already surpassed 3 thousand visits since the website came back online.

I took advantage of this moment to release some mods that were on hold, as I previously shared with you, such as mods that clean up the interface, enhance speech bubbles, a revamped loading screen mod, and more!

The Classic Sims Revival mod was also launched on MTs, which helped me gather more feedback to address some issues that I wasn't even aware of but that it had been showing. So here's the call to all of you:

• We fixed an issue related to some sims and mainly Plumbots that weren't performing their activities because they were "too tired." In reality, I had forgotten to adjust the need parameters when I reverted to the energy decay rate. This caused the Sims, even with energy, to think they were too bored/tired for it.
• With these issues resolved, I moved on to another report, that the NRaas Error Trap was generating a ton of error scripts. The problem seemed to be related to the "Call to meal" interaction. I removed the XML parameter and the problem was solved. I suspect that this issue was occurring especially when the Sims' fridge was empty and they were encouraged to prepare food and call the family for a meal, but since they couldn't do it, the game flagged it as an error. Whether it's this issue or another problem, it shouldn't affect players anymore.

Taking advantage of the week, I started working on a replacement for the in-game snow, as can be seen in the image above. Below are several before-and-after captures for you to check out. Snow has always been something that bothered me in The Sims 3, especially because I didn't like the texture much, both the texture on the asphalt and the lack of detail and noise in the snow above the terrain/roofs. Now with that sorted, I also made the decision to remove the details near the edge of the ice roofs (I don't know the name of that xD) because I prefer the look more similar to The Sims 2.

Before x After

Now we have a cleaner and more detailed look than before. Something that personally pleases me a lot! I'm looking forward to sharing more downloads with all of you! Soon, we'll be back with a variety of updates and ongoing projects. In the meantime, keep an eye on our social media to see what we've been up to throughout the month. As always, I deeply appreciate your support and feedback. Wishing everyone an excellent weekend, and we'll see you very soon with more mods in early access!
