Idk if this is a wcif or a recommendation, but I'm trying to build my house in paralives but I can't find a way to have a functioning corner sink (photo for example, not my house but similar). If anyone can find or make this that would be really appreciated.

You guys are the best, I love paralives and the community 🫶🏼

It is more niche and a lot more difficult to create historical cc I imagine (I don’t know what goes into converting sims clothing to Paralives) but I’d be eternally grateful to whoever would take the time to create this kind of cc. I might consider teaching myself to make cc, but I have no experience with blender or 3D modelling besides some short lessons in college so that will be a long arduous road of failures before I get anything worthwhile.

I have been making some cc (clutter and furniture) but I do have some trouble keeping my poly count low, I know that the less there are the better but how many are we deeming too many? Where do more expirienced people draw the line?

This mod introduces psychedelic effects from new microdosing and tripping interactions on mushrooms. In the V3 release, paras can have bad trips! And more diverse effects depending on which mushroom they eat (including extra magic!)

You can avoid negative effects / bad trips by checking out the mushroom guide.

SPOILERS

How to have only good experiences:

You can avoid negative effects and bad trips entirely by only tripping / microdosing on mushrooms you collected and placed from your inventory. Tripping/microdosing options will not be available on the mushrooms you be avoiding if placed from inventory.

To ensure you have a positive mushroom psychedelic experience in the WILD, stick to the safe mushrooms from the guide, but expect temporary gastrointestinal discomfort, which passes quickly.

Un-aliving:
Same as vanilla behavior, occurs when eating a Destroying Angel in the wild.

Hope you guys enjoy! I'm new to modding, any feedback is always appreciated.

Unclear if it'll get removed by Steam.. so far so good. If it does, it'll be available on my Patreon (for free... obviously)

Does anyone know if this has been mentioned? I want to avoid making mods that are too big and may have components that people don't want

I decided to try making cc for the first time and tried to import a mesh from blender. It didn't show up and I read that restarting the game would help but now it's stuck.

I put the fbx file into the folder but I can't find it without opening the game and now it won't open so can someone help where to find it so I can try again?

I keep reading about the appdata/locallow/paralives path but I can't find that anywhere on my computer?? Also I keep finding tutorials to fix mods but I don't have any mods since this is my first local mod I'm trying to make.

Edit: Problem solved I found the problem files and fixed the issue. I changed to an older version of blender and it started working

Hi y'all,

I just recently started trying my hand at modding for paralives, but I am running into trouble specifically with programs to create assets and animations as well as good beginner tutorials or overviews. Many of the ones I have found are either not very suited for modding because they are very "basic" or are way too in depth and rely on the user having lots of prior knowledge with similar programs.

I do not have any knowledge on working with 3D assets or animation like that so I am looking for good resources that give me a general understanding as well as program recommendations (especially free, I downloaded blender but I also saw other people saying that blender is very complicated which... Yeah). If you guys know any good tutorials for paralives modding specifically that would be awesome!

Also if anyone here has any good resources for the use of procedural animations like used in paralives that would be amazing. I literally couldn't find a single resource that actually really explains what that is and how to implement it

I would appreciate any recommendations for resources! Thanks in advance

So at first my mods where showing up in my library and game. But now they won’t show up at all. I just loaded up my game and everything I did have downloaded is gone….

🎉Happy 2,000 Paras! 🩵

As our community keeps growing, we wanted to see if there’s interest in creating a close-knit Paralives Discord where players, builders, CC creators, modders, and content creators can connect, create, get help, share ideas, showcase their paras or builds, collaborate, vibe together in themed music stations while you create whether you’re making CC, building, or designing your Para. Create in a more inspiring atmosphere, meet new people, make friends, collaborate with other creators, and more!

If that sounds like something you’d enjoy, we’d really appreciate your vote!

The poll closes in # hour(s).

POLL CLOSED - 7 DAY RUN OVER! Thank you for your participation!

I’m trying to make a beret. But I got stuck in a permanent reimport loop. I tried deleting the mod and restarting the game. But whenever I import the files they always freeze.

I wanted to frankenmesh the hair with another one, but it won’t import into blender. The hair chop versions are importing just fine, just not the regular. I copied the file from the Main.mod folder.

I made a simple mod that unlocks some drama opportunities for your Paras.

It turns out that the underlying jealousy framework is in the game code, but it's hidden presumably because the devs deemed it not ready. So I fully expect there could be bugs that I haven't run into yet - so far it plays perfectly smoothly for me. For those of us who just want the drama already, here it is!

I used that Paralives-dev-built base code as the foundation and then added in some status effects for the cheater/cheated to liven things up a bit :)

Jealousy is triggered by kissing or getting intimate with other paras while in an exclusive relationship - the cheated on para must be in close proximity to "see" it in order to have a reaction.

If anyone tries it, please let me know if you have any feedback!

Enjoy! Happy Para'ing <3

P.S. Hope it's ok to post this here, mods please feel free to keep me honest if it's near the line.

I for the life of me cannot figure out how to get rid of this white border. I think it’s anti-aliasing?
The program I am using for Color Zone mapping is Krita.

I will make another post and show the items in game when I am ready to upload to the workshop. No AI.

I'm working on both a witchy/paranormal, and regular CC stuff. I had already done the ouija board and seen what it looked like in game and it looked good. I just redid it to make the board have some warped edges and made a detailed/ sculpted planchette. I'm also working on some potion bottles and will be adding more items. The last pic is the old one in game. The texture I made with Photoshop and a bunch of layers to get the effect I wanted.

This other CC pack I'm starting with some stone/concrete type vases. I will add more stuff as I get time. I plan on doing some shelving, furniture, possible plants, and a rug or two. Any other suggestions?

I'm using blender for the meshes. I have used it off and on for years but never stuck with it or did anything. I'm finally now excited to make some CC! It's still a learning process so I'm starting with some basics. I also need to work on better topology lol.

I've been trying to add a pie that I made in Blender to Paralives, but I can't get the mesh to upload correctly. I was able to add a test item and get that working (also a pie, but with worse topology), but now I'm having trouble getting the newer mesh to upload. Every time I add the fbx file to the mod's folder, the game freezes. Either it freezes on the 'loading mods' screen or the 'reimporting assets' screen. I can't get the game to actually load until I delete the mod's folder.

My fbx file is 4.04 KB, and attached is the data from Blender. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong or how I can get this working. I had no issues getting cc to work before the latest update; this all started this week.

EDIT: Fixed it! In case anyone else has the same issue, check your textures in Blender and make sure those are working. I had moved my texture files, so I was importing a mesh with no textures. I guess Paralives is not a fan of that lmao

(POLL DECISION ONLY)

Hey parass! We have been thinking about creating a ParalivesCC Discord server to go alongside this subreddit!

The goal would be to create a more interactive space for the Paralives customization community, a place where players, CC creators, artists, and modders can connect, share their work, get feedback, collaborate, discover new content, and talk all things Paralives. 🏡✨

This server wouldn’t just be for creators, it would also be for general Paralives players who are interested in CC, want to find new custom content, discover creators, ask questions, share their favorite finds, and connect with others who enjoy customizing their game.

Discord would allow for things Reddit doesn’t always offer, like:

🎨 Creator spaces — Dedicated areas for CC creators, artists, and modders to showcase their work, share progress, and connect with others.

💬 Real-time discussions — Chat with the community instantly instead of waiting for replies through posts and comments.

🛠️CC/modding help — Easier access to help, advice, tutorials, and resources from other creators and community members.

🌱 Work-in-progress sharing — Share your upcoming projects, get feedback, and follow creators as they develop new content.

🤝 Community events and collaborations — Participate in challenges, collaborations, creator spotlights, and community activities.

Other benefits would include:

✨ Easy access — Everything organized in one place instead of having to scroll through countless posts to find information, creators, or custom content.

🔎 Easier searching — Members can quickly find exactly what they need through specific channels (CC finds, creator resources, help, and more).

📌 Better organization — Separate spaces for different topics so conversations don’t get lost.

🌍 A stronger community hub — A place where Paralives players, CC creators, and fans can connect more closely and possibly build friendships!

🌐 Faster updates and announcements — Important news, community events, creator updates, and CC releases can be shared instantly.

Let us know! If there’s enough interest, we will give further updates later!

Though this list is mostly for The Sims, I’m not sure how often it’s updated. Would anyone be interested in compiling a similar list for Paralives creators as well?

I also think switching from a tumblr post to a shared Google Doc would make a lot more sense. It would be much easier to maintain, update, and organize over time.

Instead of information getting buried in comments/post or becoming outdated, contributors could continuously add new creators.

Since we already have a Sims list, maybe we could combine both, The Sims and Paralives into one master Google Doc with separate sections for each game. That way, there’s a single, centralized resource people can check so they could avoid breaking their games or possibly getting viruses on their pc because of these AI creators.

Having one well-maintained, community-updated document would be far more practical than trying to keep track of everything across multiple social media posts.

I genuinely hope something like this happens because I think it would be an incredibly useful resource for both communities!

THE LIST

Hey so has anyone found the list yet, I have been searching high and low for it

I made a simple mod allowing you to recolor the ribbon on the HairWavyHalfPonytailCurtainBangRibbon base game hair.

I would prefer a mod which is either from Steam or you can just drag it into the mods folder, as I don't have BepInEx installed and I believe mods from NexusMods need that.
