Weekend update
🕑 Added 2024-09-09 06:14:47 +0000 UTCHello my dear Patrons,
I had planned on replying to requests yesterday and completing two Sims last night and two tonight but had a massive SSD failure at some point after posting Friday night/Saturday morning. The last clean/successful backup was 9/2/24. I have had partials since but can't get them to restore accurately.... teaches me to use old back up software on new hardware lol. I had 6 Sims partially completed that were completely lost. If you had been given a tentative creation start date was 9/2/24-present, there is going to be a delay as I will need to start those 6 Sims over again since I literally just got running. It actually took ALOT of tweaking just took get the game and mods functional.... I was shocked because I have transferred this game to different computers at least 10 times since Sims 4 was released lol. I have been a computer professional for more than 20 years and a Sims Guru for almost as long so for me to struggle getting things functional again shows how bad the failure was.
The 4 Sims that I had scheduled to start this weekend, and the dates that were scheduled after that will be pushed back as well. Basically I have lost about 4 work work days plus this weekend since I have been working to get back up and running. I thankfully posted 2 Sims and emailed 2 Privates on Friday otherwise those would be mostly lost as well. It could have been much worse I guess. I am guessing I should have at least two Sims ready Wednesday or possibly Tuesday at the absolute earliest..... but I will have to see how it goes with my Mods, CC, Sliders, etc, as everything is kind of a mess right now. File/folder encryption is a nightmare after restoring.
Apologies for the delay :(.... I will respond to requests as soon I can get the schedule figured out again. It really sucks because I had literally just got caught up and was trying to get to a point where I was releasing 10+ Sims a week again along with sending 2-3 privates. Also, today was suppose to be my first poll in months... Oh well, something to look forward to in the near future.
Anyways, thank you all for your patience, kindness, and support as you are all way more patient than I have ever been. I would be cussing myself out at this point but very few of you have gotten to that point ;)
Thank you again,
A Touch of Realism
