hi!!! OP here: i'm sorry i forgot to update the post to warn people about the issue!! this started happening to me as well, and it didn't used to do this. i have no idea what could've changed to cause it because honestly i'm winging everything i do and was just following a tutorial to make those recolours, but i am hoping to recreate them soon to try and fix it even if i need to redo them from scratch (i need to set up my desktop to be able to use TSRW and have no external keyboard or functioning monitor rn).

Let’s Fill This Town With Color - Part 1

This is the first time I’ve ever made a set so huge and I’m very nervous about posting it haha. I was tired of being so limited in my colour choices, and since learning fence recolours are possible I decided I simply had to do something about it.

Feedback is very welcome! I think I’ve double checked everything, but let me know if there are any issues.

Info and download links under the read more:

#honestly i just assume no one ever even downloads these fdkgjjfsh i hope u still get some use out of the rest of the recolours tho

How to sort non-default eyes CC by style in CAS 2.0

This is an adapted version of @syaovu's how to sort non-default eyes cc by style not by colors. The post linked to a faster grouping method by applying changes to the entire package instead of individual swatches which I followed and didn't quite work as expected with nondefault eyes.. But based on the previous knowledge from the two methods, I've updated the tutorial on how to sort/group your non-default eyes custom contents with just a few mouse clicks!

Required: CmarNYC's S4 CAS Tool

Step 1: Open S4CASTool_version.zip, run S4CASTools.exe, enter your creator name (any character will do), and check for the right directory to your The Sims 4 folder, hit Save.

Step 2: In TS4 Cas Tools program, click on Clone Package Editor tab, and click Select to choose the package you want to change.

Step 3: In Clone Package Editor, click on Recolor Manager tab and you'll see the sorting order of every swatch in the current package.

Step 4: Under Recolor Manager tab, click on Renumber Sort Order and a window to change the sort value will pop up.

Keep the "Renumber using start value and increment" option.

Here I use the same tactic recommended in the original tutorial, go for big numbers! Swatches with bigger sort values will appear at the bottom of the eyes color panel in CAS. You can use this method to organize your eyes cc how you see fit!

Set your start value to 1000. For increment input, I keep it 5.

Apply changes by clicking on Renumber.

Step 5: Finally, hit Commit Changes, and Save Package. 

Step 6: Repeat steps 2-5 for every non-default eyes you want to sort with different start values such as 2000, 3000.. etc to avoid mix-up.

Step 7: When you're done, place the packages into your mod folders, open your game, and there you have it! Neatly organized non-defaults eyes in CAS the lazy easy way. 😋

sims 4 ppl more in the know than me: do we have the option of placing ceiling tiles individually, or does it function more like how the fill room or foundation/platform options work?

i finally caved and bought that one maximalist sims 4 kit and honestly im so fucking disappointed by how low quality this wallpaper is, even knowing damn well what ts4's texture quality is like.

crunchy as all hell, visibly more pixellated than other wallpapers, and it doesn't go around corners properly? what the fuck is this quality control

this is probably very un-notable to anyone who actualy knows their way around this stuff but i truly am flyin by the seat of my googling skills and im v proud of myself for gettin a workin prototype for rug floor trims

a lil experiment to see if i could make this floor trip not be half eaten when up against a wall + an outside corner piece that i forgot to delete the under-the-wall extra tile bit on the layer lol

#i thought the get famous pool deco trims were gonna be the answer but bc of the way she was meshed + textured it uh. was not lmfao #im glad i had already been experimenting with blender for the sake of makin a model to paint my character design ref onto #bc that made figurin out how to resize the city living rose petals to be full tile way less stressful and way less overwhelmin #than the first time i tried to do this a few years ago #this concept is gonna go on hold now tho cos i've procrastinated on other things in order to scratch this itch for too long oops #LESS FANCY REALISATION: i can make thresholds omg.... #sims houses always look so wrong to me especially when flooring changes but there's nothing covering that change... #i could even make these trims modular... choose the border and the little diamonds separately omg... #i am perhaps overengineering with that one tho

#jesstxt #ts4 cc wip #i think ultimately if i do anything more with this ill make them as rug pieces instead bc i'd much prefer the versatility #of using any flooring with the trims

☀️🛹 JOE SK8's tattoo

this has been really fun to learn to make, it's position meant it went over three different parts of the sim texture and i really enjoyed that challenge more than i expected to. she's not perfect, but i'm pretty proud of and am happy with the outcome. i hope all the sk8 fans will enjoy using this 💚

notes:

there are two swatches offering differing opacities

disabled for random

custom CAS thumbnail for easy finding

PLEASE show me your joes if you use this tattoo!!

ok but i'm still stuck on "safely" coming from ea bc i absolutely do remember:

that whole kerfluffle with EA ignoring that creep gamechanger/streamer that was grooming underage people . please remember, that katwhisperer CHOSE TO resign and we never heard about any other gurus or any management (where the responsibility lies) along that chain of command getting fired.

ea getting hit with a data leak in 2021 and origin having a damn near 10 year exploit which explains why people get hacked on origin way more than epic games or steam. this company not instilling any other safeguard since then other than an extremely weak 2FA and finally doing away with origin for a platform that is arguably worse.

this whole fifa scandal coming from some employee trying to hustle from the inside (sorry but lol)

the cc creators that will doxx you over things you paid them money for and over ip they do not own (miko, harrie, felix, et all) now accepted and are modding this curse(d)forge.

please know this company has never had your "safety" in mind.

sims summit tl;dr

here’s what they announced for ts4:

updated babies coming early 2023

two new expansion packs in 2023 coming with two new worlds, both of which look like cities

monthly updates continuing through 2023

new platform for official mod/cc integration through overwolf/curseforge

teases and concept art of new build/buy and gameplay content like dentures, bikes for kids, etc.

project rene, the “next generation” of the sims, is in very early development stages, will be both single and multiplayer, and will have cross-platform capabilities

#curseforge is fucking horrible to look for mods and cc on lmao

i created a tumblr account just so i can ask you this. Is there a 'Lets Fill This Town With Colour Part 2'? Have you abandoned the project or have you uploaded it somewhere that is not tumblr?

hi omg

i haven't officially abandoned the project, but i definitely accidentally abandoned it when life/health/etc kinda got in the way and i honestly haven't have much joy playing ts4 for a long time.

i do want to re-find that joy though, and i do want to come back to it (both the game and the recolour project), and part 2 was started. i just need to dig up the files.

#tbh knowing that someone liked it enough to actively find out if i had completed part 2 really made my day to see #thank u anon

Now for something other than TS4 Patreon Drama:

Someone in the community finally got ahold of EDITH! For those of you who are new players EDITH was the in-house developing tool that was used to develop TS1. Since TS1 and TS2 share a core engine it also means that we have the tools that potentially could be used to edit TS2 as well. This is because sims in both TS1 and TS2 sims use the SimAntics engine for behaviors.

This could lead to being able to create more complex sim bhavs much while modding!

This is a big deal because it allows you to edit character behaviors WHILE the game is running. It also is much more in depth than most other modding tools because instead of being a program that was reconstructed to edit the game it's the tool that can edit anything IN the game.

I've contacted Luc (the person who upload the video) to try and get a copy to upload to the Sim Archive. This is such a neat discovery and I hope that TS2 modders who are very savvy will look into trying to make it work with TS2? If not, we can only hope that one day TS2's version of EDITH will be release to the public.

I have no idea where on earth this was found but wow! It's such a great find.

You make cc? Why are you on the blacklist thing??

I do make cc, yes. I public as Marvell. And my cc blog is called Marvell-World https://marvell-world.tumblr.com/

Now to you second ask, what blacklist thing? I have no idea what you are talking about? Could someone tell me what this is about, please?

But wait if this is about the doxxing list, this is ridiculous, as my content is free to download from my patreon, except from when it’s in early access. So again what blacklist?

EA Early Access Situation

Got the news yesterday but I was thinking about what to say.

As EA clearly stated, I will not make Early Access content anymore. Everything will be free since the date posted. This feels bittersweet for me, to be honest.

I’m not gonna lie, I’m a bit scared. You guys know this is my way to pay college, therapy, meds and many other things, and now is where I kindly ask you to stay and support me. I have nowhere to go at this moment and I feel lost, I have to find any other income now and to be honest I DON’T KNOW how.

However, this is like removing a big thing from my back. It’s like getting out of an abusive relationship with my own self. I’ve been feeling so bad the last days I can’t even get out of bed, all because I HAD to make content worthy of an Early Access to be able to pay bills. I don’t have to overwork myself anymore now, and this is the bittersweet part. 

Anyway, I’ll still be here, and I’m happy this will be back as my hobby (that’s how it started), but yet, please, keep up with me and help me fight :)

And THANK YOU, permawall guys. I hope you’re happy.
