  1. Ever wanted to play the #Sims 4? Are you #Blind? IF so, someone made an accessibility mod for the Sims 4. IT's still a work in progress, but its something worth looking at. Here it is: patreon.com/tyjokr/posts/scree

  2. Somebody fucked up a certificate so now Sims 4 triggers Windows Security as "malware".

    According to the Sims Team it might take days to fix.

  4. Valerio & Gabriela. Windenburg. The days after.

    As expected, life for Gabriela and Valerio changed drastically after they returned home from the hospital. With all the new responsibilities, Gabriela slowly found herself in a much better place mentally. She finally felt needed. There wasn't much time left to overthink anymore. Her fears were still there, but they no longer took over her days. She still had the occasional moment when she'd watch Nova with the twins and wonder what life would've been like if her own mother had been there […]

  5. Valerio & Gabriela. The Days Before. 1/?

    Part 1. Part 2 (coming soon) Part 1. The early stages of pregnancy were going well for Gabriela. Valerio was trying to surround her with as much love and care as he possibly could. However, the more time passed, the more anxious Gabriela became. The story of her mother passing during childbirth due to complications was always sitting somewhere in the back of her mind, and all the hormonal changes definitely weren't helping either. To calm Gabriela down a little, they decided to go for a […]

  6. Lana. Mt. Komorebi. Beneath the Ice.

    Song ⬇️⬇️ After stopping by Willow Creek for a brief visit to see her family after Winterfest, Lana finally had some time off from work, which also gave her a chance to see Kyle. The two of them were still... a "thing". What kind of thing exactly, Lana wasn't sure. She felt good around him. Comfortable. Easy. That was exactly how she wanted it to stay. But did Kyle want the same? Honestly, she had never really thought about it. If he kept coming back, then this arrangement was fine […]

  7. Archibald. Willow Creek. Sneaky Masterminds.

    With school being over and the Winterfest holidays getting closer, Archie was spending more time doing his favorite things. However, being at the Snow residence during this time also meant taking part in all the family holiday activities. "You called for me, grandpa?" Archie shouted as he ran downstairs. "Yes, son. Come over here and help me." Joseph looked over at him, handing him a box of holiday decorations. "Ugh... I'm not really into this, grandpa. You know that. Besides, I have a […]

  8. Archibald. Willow Creek. In His Own Orbit.

    Time at high school for Archie was passing practically uneventfully. He quickly realized that most classes bored him to death. Teachers seemed obsessed with the plain basics and grades. Scores mattered more than actual interest or knowledge. Archie wasn't exactly shy about sharing his opinions, and whenever he pointed out that he didn't think half the things they were teaching would ever be useful to him in the future, teachers would roast him in front of the class for being shallow and […]

  9. The main issue still with #GamingOnLinux: 9/10 times "it just works". And really, it does! It's great!

    But when it doesn't... Let's say I just lost 2 days of my live getting #TheSims4 to run on my #SteamDeck again due to it breaking on the latest EA app. Couldn't find a fix yet online, so had to test some stuff myself and come up with my own solution. Uploaded the whole procedure to #ProtonDB, so with the next content refresh it should be public.

    But really, people who aren't as deep into it Linux and the technical side of gaming on it likely wouldn't have figured out how to make it run. My eventual fix made sense if you know how Wine and Linux work, it's not that complex once you got the answer. But for a random gamer who's not further into the topic (and just wants to play anyways)? A bit much to figure out from scratch...

    Luckily it does get better at rapid pace the last few years, I haven't seen these kind of workarounds needed in ages (so don't take this post too discouraging). But it's a good reminder that these issues aren't gone yet, and will be a blockade (in bigger or smaller degree) for mainstream usage until they are.

  10. Clarissa & Ben. Selvadorada. Secrets of the Lost Artifact.

    This was supposed to be just one of many ordinary expeditions into the Selvadoradian jungles. Clary and Ben had been doing this for years now and had plenty of experience under their belts. They had built strong connections within the archaeological community, which gave them access to all the knowledge they could ever need. However, in recent months, Ben had suddenly become obsessed with finding an artifact that was believed to be lost and surrounded by countless legends. Clary was curious […]

  11. Valerio & Gabriela. Windenburg. Two for One Deal.

    Valerio woke up early, as always, to walk Bandit and prepare breakfast. "You know you're going to spoil me, and I could get used to this treatment," Gabriela teased, hugging him from behind as he was fetching something for them. "That is my real intention," he smiled. "Haven't you thought about it?" "Will you be spoiling our kids as well with sweet, fresh breakfasts?" she chuckled. "If they let me, for sure." "Speaking of kids, have you ever thought about having them?" she asked, trying […]

  12. Lana. Del Sol Valley. Into the Spotlight.

    Upon Lana's return to Del Sol Valley, the place looked the same, but somehow felt different. New faces had appeared around the apartment complex, often throwing Lana curious glances whenever she walked by. Johnny had gone from the radars again. After their last phone conversation, he told her it was safe to return and that she just needed to stay alert. After that, though, there was nothing but silence. His phone went straight to voicemail. The black SUV was nowhere to be seen […]

  13. Lana. Willow Creek. Old flames die hard.

    Lana's stay in Willow Creek ended up lasting longer than she had originally planned. During the last couple of days of her stay, Clifford called to let her know that Jayson was coming home for a visit, and he already planned their meet up before another long break separated them again. After Conrad's arrest, they had grown even more distant. Lana had shut herself off from everyone, while Jayson had moved to Tomarang with his family after being recruited by a major football team. It felt […]

  14. Lana. Del Sol Valley. Reality Check. 1/?

    Part 1. Part 2. Part 1. Del Sol Valley. Past events. Summer time. Getting into Pembroke Entertainment felt like a dream come true for Lana. She was finally on her way to pursuing acting and doing what she had always dreamed of. Florentina made sure Lana was settled into one of the agency's apartment buildings. She was given some time to return to back home, pack up her belongings, and move in properly. The gnawing feeling of leaving her old life behind was still eating away at her, but […]

  15. CW: Mod Update: The Sims 3 OST in Paralives

    Added Pets support!

    Gee, I kinda wish I could easily add settings for each of these tracks.
    I probably could do it, but it would be a lot of effort.

  16. CW: Mod Update: The Sims 3 OST in Paralives

    Generations is now supported.

    I may try to reorganize the mod in the next update, so you'll have to move your music files to subfolders if you're updating, but judging from the download count I don't think that will be an issue.

  17. CW: Mod Update: The Sims 3 OST in Paralives

    Can you guess what I added in the Late Night update?

    That's right, more variety, and a lower chance for tracks to get completely removed from the queue! How'd you guess?

    Oh, also Late Night tracks are now supported!

    By the way, all of the tracks are optional. You can just add the files for ones you actually want to hear and the rest will just not play. This game is cool about missing files like that.

  18. CW: Mod Update: The Sims 3 OST in Paralives

    Ambitions is now supported. I noticed I accidentally skipped a version number, too... Oh well.

    Also, all previous versions have been reuploaded without the git metadata and ReadMe file inside. They're much smaller! That, and I disabled the other downloads so nobody gets confused.

  19. CW: Mod Update: The Sims 3 OST in Paralives

    I added support for the tracks from World Adventures!

    The sub-world loading music is missing for now because I feel it should only be used while loading actual sub-worlds. If I could find an equivalent feature to attach it to, I would!

  20. CW: Mod Release: The Sims 3 OST in Paralives

    I made a mod that adds The Sims 3 Music to Paralives. Currently it just supports the base game's full-length music, but I'm considering also doing some expansions.

    ***You have to provider your own MP3 files*** (but you *can* just download it from khinsider)

  21. Valerio & Gabriela. Honeymoon. 1/?

    Part 1. Part 2. Part 1. Valerio and Gabriela slipped away from their wedding celebration a little earlier than everyone else. There was a plane to catch, and Gabriela had absolutely no idea where they were going. Valerio had taken full control of planning their honeymoon, refusing to reveal a single detail no matter how much she tried to pry it out of him. With some help from Clarissa and Ben, who had practically become Sulani locals by now, he managed to find a surprisingly affordable […]

  22. I did not expect to say this but #Paralives actually turned out amazing, wow. I really felt like it would end up mediocre with gameplay as an afterthought, but there's so many interesting and fun features in there.

    Of course there's tons of bugs and incomplete features, but that's early access for ya. I trust the team to deliver more. Even at the current level, I feel like it's worth it though. What a refreshing game.
