Hi! The patch broke a lot of mods today, including Regency Romance. I'm in the process of assessing the damage, and I will let you know as soon as things are updated/confirmed compatible. Thank you for your patience with me!
A Few Mod Updates
Hey -- I have a few long overdue bugfix updates out tonight. Regency Romance - https://www.patreon.com/posts/71308728Soulmates - https://www.patreon.com/posts/mod-soulmates-78603754Song Injector - https://www.patreon.com/posts/modding-resource-87682545I also want to apologize for being so absent. This year has been sort of hellish when it comes to time, and I've done a really poor job of handling it all. But - I'm just starting a new job ...
Updated Mods + Personal Update
Hey all,Thank you so much for your patience with me, and I'm so sorry that I've been MIA. It's been a difficult few months, and between juggling a some hectic changes at work and some private personal and family matters, I haven't been able to be present here the way that I wish I had. I'm sorry if I worried anyone, and I promise I'll get back to my usual schedule as soon as I can.I'm in the process of updating many of...
What I'm Working On #034
Hey all! I'm back with another update on how things are progressing. I know it's been quiet for a few weeks -- I ran into a few bugs that have unfortunately set back the timeline of the Regency update. It's important to me that I make sure things are really finished and not rushed, and I want to take the time to iron out these issues before release. I'm so sorry for the change of plans when I had thought I was so close!One of the ...
What I'm Working On #033
Hey all and happy new year! I took some time off for the holidays, but I'm still hard at work on the content update for the Regency Romance mod. It's been a lot of animation this week (and every week), but I feel like I'm learning a lot. Making dances that travel without colliding with large groups has had a fun learning curve to it. It's also been an adventure making sure the Sims route to the correct spots for each different d...
Functional Object: Ringing Bells
Hello, and Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! 😊 I have a small treat to share today: bells that ring! There are a handful of functional objects included in this mini-mod. There are three Hanging Bells which are suspended from the ceiling in small, medium, and large (each has a different pitch). Then, there is a standing Town Bell if you'd prefer to place one outside. The bells ring on their own at 6am, 12pm, and 6pm, but you can click...
What I'm Working On #032
Hello and happy holidays! I'm back with another quick update on how I've been spending my modding time. This week, it's more and more animations for the Regency Update. Instead of just showing a couple of pictures, this time I thought it would be fun to share a bit of my process and how the animations get made. Other than that, I've continued working on a lot of the coding and bugfixes, so I hoped this would be more interesting...
Tutorial: Basics of Traits, Buffs, and Loots
Sul-sul! Today, I wanted to share a little bit of something different: a tutorial explaining the basics of traits, buffs, and loots. I know a lot of people have been using Mod Constructor, but I've always found it helpful to make my mods from scratch, and I thought others might want to learn to do it the same way. A lot of the tutorials I used when learning are outdated, or I figured things out by trial and error, so maybe this could help som...
What I'm Working On #031
Sul sul! I'm back with another update on how I've been spending my modding time this week. I feel like this is going to be one of those updates where it doesn't looklike I've done a lot, but I actually made a lot of progress, and the steps forward are really impactful.My big success of the week for the Regency update was getting the new tuning file types for the game finished. I now have a reliable way to make synchronized animati...
WIP: Similization
I'm super excited to share this work in progress with you, because it is something that has been in the works for a really long time! Not to be dramatic, but this mod is the reason I originally started modding, and it's been out of my reach for a really long time. But after teaching myself the skills these last few years and sorting out the framework, I'm working on this in earnest.This mod is focused on giving structure to your sims&...
What I'm Working On #030
Sul sul! I hope those who celebrate had a happy Thanksgiving. I'm back with a quick update on how I've been spending my modding time. Regency UpdateMy primary focus now is the next content update for Regency Romance. This update is going to focus on making dancing a complete skill. With that in mind, I'm in the process of animating line dances which will be able to be performed by 4, 8, or possibly 16 sims.Don't mind the hands - ...
Mod: Rideable Dragons (requires Cottage Living)
Sul sul! I'm back with another animated skill mod: rideable dragons. This is a completely custom new animal for the Sims, complete with life stages (Child, Teen, Adult, Elder).These dragons breathe fire, and until you train (or cheat) them not to, they will start fires on your lot autonomously. You can dye their scales using crystals, but be warned that this only lasts for a single life stage, after which they will return to the color they we...
What I'm Working On This Week #029
Hey y'all. I'm so sorry for the radio silence these last two weeks! I kept hoping that this update would be the one where I get to say everything is ready to go, but between patch fixes and bugfixing for this mod in general being an adventure, I'm still not quite done.This bug has been long since fixed but it's still funny to see Liberty Lee flying around by herself, lol. I'm still investigating a bug with one of the LODs th...
Regency Romance Re-Updated
EDIT: Regency Romance has been re-updatedto fix the autonomous dancing bug. (I had made some changes to help with the ball lag which messed with the autonomy - so sorry!)Hello all! Regency Romance has been updated for bugfixes, including but not limited to fixing a bug where estates were not inheriting properly on a Sim's death, ghosts being referenced in Lady Whistledown, and adding more venue possibilities to events. Additionally, teens wil...
Life and Death Patch Status
Hello all! Thank you so much for your patience as I check my mods for compatibility. Remarkably, everything is confirmed compatible with the latest patch, but I'm working on some unrelated bugfixes for Regency Romance and you can expect an update in the next 24 hours. Best, JS
What I'm Working On #028
You guys, sometimes I feel weird getting excited about what I'm working on, but this week, I just can't help myself. The thing I'm the most excited to share is that the dragons have life stages!🎂Oh, and they breathe fire now, too! :) And can start fires on your lot, until you train them not to.The baby hasn't quite found his flame, yet. :) Unlike Sims, they'll automatically age up; no need to throw a birthday party for the...
What I'm Working On This Week
Hey all - it's more dragons this week for me. :) I've also been working on bugfix updates to Regency, but those are a little bit less visual for sharing.I worked on a bunch of animations this week, from hugs, to cleaning, feeding, etc.I also got the gem system working, so you can change your dragon's scale color! :)I've also started work on the flying/dragon riding animations. There will be a handful of different flights you can ...
Work In Progress: Dragons
Hello! I just wanted to share a bit of what I've been working on lately in terms of new content. Things have been slow going with life changes, but I finally feel like I can get back to my regular modding schedule. And I'm super excited to share that the next mod will be a new animal - dragons! :)You will be able to raise them from eggs, feed them gems to dye them different colors, add to their hoards, and yes - ride them. There is an ass...
Patch Updates
Hello all! So sorry for my sluggishness in checking my mods for the latest patch. Regency Romanceand Soulmateshave both received small updates, and everything else is compatible.<3 ~JS
Looking Ahead
Hey all! As you may have noticed, I'm starting to get back into modding, and I wanted to share a short explanation/update on the future of my mods. These last few months have been really rough, and I don't want to share anything beyond that, but what I had intended to be a short break needed to be longer for personal reasons. Almost every facet of my life has fundamentally changed this summer, and the amount of time that I'm able to ...
