Think you might make a version of Swimmable Worlds that is compatible with both lotharihoeβs Purple Skies (https://lotharihoe.itch.io/purple-skies) and Lunar_Britneyβs Seasons Master Fix (https://modthesims.info/d/692031/seasons-master-fix-wip.html)?

Can't believe EA doesn't do the same in making these places swimmabe, but thank you for making this mod! I took me a couple of tries to get it to work, but that is because I didn't follow you directions (next time Jacquie, read the instructions, lol!) It works so wonderfully in my game and I can't wait to get the other phases of this mod. Thanks for all of the hard work you put into it!
NerdyDoll
It's inside the installation folder.
NerdyDoll
If it resets the world files, yes. How to know if it did? The mod won't work :( but great news is, it's enough to replace the world files in the Delta folders, so once you installed the mod, updating it will take max 1 minute when needed.

Hi! Do you need to follow the instructions each time you've done an update to your game?
Karen O`Brien
Hey can someone point me towards the download instructions I cant seem to find it
NerdyDoll
No, mod is compatible and highly unlikely to break from a patch update (though it may need to be reinstalled with patches). Please check if you've added the world files to the Delta folders.
Howa
Hi! I followed the download instructions but there are no interactions on the water in brindleton bay in either of the locations, could the latest patch be the culprit?? Thanks!
NerdyDoll
Please check if you have replaced the world files in the Delta folders.
Kerry Kelly
I downloaded all of these...only tried using the Brindleton Bay ones so far...and it seems neither of these worked? I deleted (saved the original for back up) and put in your files and followed the directions but for some reason yet the water is not swimmable here.
SulSul
This is the mod i've been waiting for so i'm super stoked about it!! However it's only working in Brindleton Bay for me though.. is this a known issue? I followed the instructions so I don't know why it didn't work
NerdyDoll
If you have EP04 installed, it must be there however it may be in a different place. If you open the EA App, you can find the needed folders. For better info, please check the installation doc.

this C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 4\EP04\Worlds\Areas does not show up on my Windows laptop? Any suggestions
NerdyDoll
If that's a separate lighting mod then unfortunately no. :(
NerdyDoll
Yes, other lighting mods will conflict with it. Windenburg Island is not possible unfortunately but Island Bluff is, so that will come soon!
Luna_del_amor
Thank you very much for such a great mod!!I am very sad about its impossible to become swimmable Windenburg island⦠and what about purple skies by lotharihoe?Does it conflict with your mod?
Fr0g.R4ve
Will the Sunblind version work for Twinkle Toes? I believe its one of softerhaze's lighting mod as well.
Melly
You just changed the whole game for me.... wow. thank you!
NerdyDoll
It's very important to replace the files in the Delta folders too! Delta folders are the main files read by the game. I hope that will solve the issue, if not don't hesitate to reach out again
Cristina Vivalda
Hi, I installed your mod (also the new one with the others world) but my sims can't swim... I don't know what's wrong... could you help me? I install all world under: C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 4\Data\Shared\Worlds\Areas as per your attached instructions... Thanks a lot!
NerdyDoll
Please make sure that the new world files are added to the Delta folders.
talina Laslie
I only see an option to wade. don't see one to swim or create water vehicle.
NerdyDoll
Hi, which one are you having trouble with?
Lxllijohannaa
I donβt get how to make this work in the Game..
NerdyDoll
Swimmable Granite Falls is also coming soon! While the island in Windenburg can't be swimmable due to its shallow water, the Island bluff can be with some small modifications so it's also coming soon along with several other worlds.
Martina Horvat
OMG! It is insane that we couldnt swim in Brindelton Bay, a perfect coastal town! I wish we could swim in Granite Falls, there is really not much to do there and this would make summer vacations so much better. Please also make water around Windenburg island swimmable! Thats another spot I always go to and wish we could swim there. Thank you for amazing work!
NerdyDoll
Thank you for the kind words, it means the world β€οΈ
Tay
Thank you so much for your hard work! The community has been asking for this for so long. I'm glad we have amazing modders that can help give us simmers what we need!π€β¨
