Working hard :)

I had a free day yesterday and I spent the better part of it preparing a new set and carefully testing each item one by one. First by opening the package in TSRW to make sure all textures are showing up as they should. Second, placing it in the Mods folder of a vanilla game (no other cc running), placing the item on a lot and running the game for a few minutes. The creation software allows you to select if the object, for instance, is one of the things that a sim with the "insane" trait will talk to when having one of their special moments. This is a good time to make sure that's working as it should as well.

I've also been reading and trying to learn about other things I want to try. I started another project with some framed prints, but I realized that I want to be able to remove the shine from the "glass" in the framed wall decor, because it totally takes away from whatever you've put inside the frame, depending on what it is. I made 5 swatches last night, but when I saw how it looked in game I knew I had to find a tutorial tonight on how to remove that shine. I'm looking forward to it :)

Thank you all for your nice comments on my recolors. It makes me so happy to be able to share with you, and over the moon that you're enjoying them! I will keep trying to improve and learn. Have a wonderful day, everyone! And happy Simming!

**Here is a tutorial I found on removing shine from objects:

02/05/2019 Update - Broken link in Simple Container's page

Hello ☺!

Hope you are all ok!

Tomorrow (or today, if you see this post on May 3rd) Simple Container will be available for download.

I noticed I did not copy html code for one of the link properly. It looks like this:

Californium Wood Floor Decking: a href="https://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/details/category/sims4-objects-furnishing-decor-rugs/title/californium-wooden-floor-decking/id/1427729/">*click here*

I am sorry for this incovienience, I was quite tired while submitting the creation to the TSR team. It should look like this:

Californium Wood Floor Decking: *click here*

Feel free to use that link instead of copying code into the search bar. ☺

Also by an accident by Actinium Towel dispenser I put a link to Gourmet Kitchen part II by Ung999 - ignore it, it was a mistake ☺

Have lovely day,

Approved :)

Today I logged in to see that the mod I redid and resubmitted has been approved. This hopefully means that I can catch any errors with my current testing setup.

If you are new to this, a helpful pointer I got from the TSR team is to open every package in TSRW once it is done, because sometimes there can be an error with the textures not cloning properly (especially with extra stuff pack items) and opening it in this program will ensure that you see the error before submitting it.

I hope that I encounter the error myself so that I can see what it looks like and feel a better understanding for that whole thing.

I will keep updating with things that I've learned that I think are important or helpful for anybody who wants to make their own mods.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Hi everyone ☺!

Hope your weekend went well!

I have two new creations coming for you guys soon. There will be the set of 5 wall designs coming and a new house. I decided I will start previewing my upcoming TSR creations exclusively on my Ko-Fi account. It is a donate website but I do not oblige you to support me to see new stuff. It's very optional if you wanna support me or not. The walls are already previewed there, a house should be there very soon ☺. 

If you are curious about new stuff, simply click on the button below ☺. 

 I am also reminding you that those two creations are going to be available to download 24hrs prior to the TSR release (unless the TSR team uploads the creation next day). You can visit my Tumblr profile here☺.

Have a lovely day and a week,

♥♥ Caroll 

Sims 4 Finally

Hi I am bored so here is some info about me. Well I have laptop but you probably know that. I am from Czech Republic and I like playing Sims 4. I am sisxteen and I don't have money for notebook so I bought 32 sd card and It's in my laptop, of cousrse with the sims 4 gameplay on it. But I have only base game so I am more like creating on sims 4 studio. But problem is that I don't know how to publish sims 4 content here on TSR site. Also I don't know how to create meshes on Blender, because I don't know how to control like rotation or zoom. If you can help me with that I would be really gladfull.

Just waiting for now :)

Since I have submitted the mod that I remade for my intended 3-item set, I am currently waiting on the TSR team to read my messages in reply to their last question, and my mod is in "pending." I was asked if I resubmitted the bad mod or if I recloned it. I remade it starting over at step 1 in S4S. Then I opened the package in TSRW to make sure the textures weren't missing, the TSR team said it can happen sometimes, especially with items from extra stuff packs. Then I started my vanilla game with that package as the only one in the Mods folder. It all looked good, so I uploaded that as "revision 2" for that item and resubmitted the set with the revision made. 

That's all I can do for the moment, I've prepared lots of my ideas but not submitting anything until I know my testing process is now giving the correct results. I hope everyone has a great weekend!

*When a mod is resubmitted after being rejected, it can take awhile for it to be reviewed again because it goes to the bottom of the pile. Just helpful FYI!

Got my testing all set up.

I am now able to open my package files in TSRW to make sure that there aren't any issues as well as run a vanilla game with only the mod that I am testing. So far I have had 2 submissions rejected due to missing textures. As soon as I had both things installed (and figured out how to set the paths, and open another package in TSRW) I checked out the most recent rejection and it's textures were all there. My vanilla game also didn't have any errors/crashes. So I am not sure if this is going to solve the issue of having some of my submissions rejected. If this is the case I may need to take a indeterminate break from submitting so that I can try to figure out what is going on. I really hope that doesn't have to happen, but I want to be able to prevent this issue.

*For now I've remade one of the rejected mods, started over completely. It would be a happy confirmation if the testing results from TSR are the same as mine. This can be very confusing! To anybody else that is learning as well, don't give up!

Help

Maybe someone can help me hear because I have no idea how to fix this issue im having. I love the nose mask but in game i cant use them if i use them the EA lashes come back on and i dont want that does anyone know how to fix this would love it if someone could help me out.

15 million downloads

Yay for me!  and for all those lovely Simmers who have contributed to this milestone - especially the ones who keep on keeping on . . you know who you are . . and I love you all.  

15M might not stack up large against our high profile members' tallies . . . but for an old graphics hack like me . . it's FANTASTIC!  

I still have to pinch myself every so often to make sure it's real.   So . . it's all down  to you my friends  . . .THANK YOU!

Some of you have asked after my health recently and I thank you for your caring  . . .  I can say that my eyes are back to 20/20 [and that's pretty extraordinary at 81!] . . but the rest of me is still some way off optimum . . getting there, but it's a sloooow process that tends to frustrate even my high level of patience some days. . .   the alternative is not to be considered, so . . .one day at a time is my plan . . and it seems to be working.

See you around the site I hope
