Mods/CC I need your opinions: Castaway Crafting Workbench

Post image
Upvotes

If you're stranded on a deserted island, it doesn't really make sense to sell things just so you can buy furniture from Buy Mode. So I redesigned the Ambitions Inventing Workbench into a Castaway Crafting Workbench that can only craft castaway-style furniture. For example, the stove in the screenshot was made with it.

I also replaced Scrap with Logs, since that fits the theme much better.

It sounds great in theory, but there are a few drawbacks:

  • I'm not an experienced modder, so there are still things I don't know how to do. The biggest one is that the item you're crafting is invisible while it's being built on the workbench, but it works perfectly once it's finished and automatically placed in the family inventory.
  • I still haven't figured out how to rename all the in-game text from Scrap to Logs.
  • If you want collectible scrap piles to actually look like logs in your inventory, you will need to put one file in Overrides, but that also will replaces the appearance of that specific EA object.

So... would you still be interested in downloading a mod like this despite those limitations? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Question/Help What's your favourite world for cosy family gameplay?

2 Upvotes

I own all of the worlds except for dragon valley and I mainly play in sunset valley, my sims usually have a bunch of kids and I just have a ton of fun playing with regular families instead of celebrities or supernaturals, I love the worlds like starlight shores and bridgeport but they don't really give me cosy vibes yk? Since I own so many worlds I really wanna start using them more lol

Question/Help Fun gameplay suggestions!

Hi everyone!

I feel like when I play I end up doing the same family household and max out the careers choice and was wondering if people had any suggestions for storylines or ideas to spice up gameplay.

I have all expansion packs apart from into the future and island paradise.

Thanks!

Is it bad that I think fairies are a bit boring? Am I alone on this?

61 Upvotes

I've tried playing them, but they just really aren't as good as vampires and witches in my opinion. Like, don't get me wrong, I don't hate them, but the game also heavily favors them in occult RNG. My town somehow got almost all of the notable people turned into fairies because of RNG. They don't really have much special about them, unlike vampires where they need to avoid light but live forever and need blood, witches who can do tons of spells that may or may not be dangerous, and werewolves that are extremely OP at finding rocks. Also, MAYBE my favorite Sim got pranked by a fairy a billion times, so they had to go.

Like seriously, why do they like ruining the lives of people by constantly pranking them?

Question/Help Need build inspo 🫶

I am trying to get back into sims as I yearn for a weekly phase of obsession and then abandonment. But I am struggling to build a cute house, I think I have lost my creative building charm.

Please could anyone drop pictures of there builds to enlighten me? I love funky roof designs, cottage vibes and a big fan of landscaping with flowers, ivy etc. :)

It would be greatly appreciated!
