PUBLIC RELEASE: The Sims 4 Tropical Getaway Modpack

Added 2018-09-20 20:11:47 +0000 UTC

Aloha and Sul Sul! The Sims 4 Tropical Getaway Modpack (Requires The Sims 4 Base Game, Outdoor Retreat, Seasons and Jungle Adventure) is here for you. For free. This modpack is probably one of the biggest mod projects ever made for The Sims 4. This modification doesn't just transform the former world of Granite Falls into a tropical retreat called 'Palm Falls' - it also gives your Sims new ways to explore this destination, new gameplay, new clothing options and additions to your build-buy catalog.

If you enjoy this full-blown mod pack I'd be very happy if you'd support this and future projects through this Patreon.

New Features:

changed foliage and textures around the world, made it lush, tropical and beachy.
new climate system: tropical storms in winter, heatwaves in summer, no more snow (it's a tropical destination, duh.)
improved lighting inspired by the lighting from Sunlit Tides in The Sims 3.
new UI changes including a new world icon, world name change (new save file is recommended), new world map
added the ability to play in the ocean (swimming in the ocean is coming with a future update!)
added the ability to relax near the river (check out the fishing sign)
sunbathing now is a thing - including a positive and a negative outcome: sunburns and gettin a nice tan!
added a palm swing to the game and the world
added an inventory-able duffel bag that your Sim can carry around
added pool floaters: your Sims can now take a nap in the pool, floating!
added an actually cooling ceiling fan
added an inventory-able kiddie pool
added 15+ CAS items (including a fancy banana costume)
added 30+ build/buy items
added, tweaked and removed stuff that we can't even list anymore because this mod is huge.
