THIS JUST HAPPENED

(around 7.25pm, Nov 23, Palestine time)

please please PLEASE do not stop speaking just because of a temporary ceasefire. please. some of you will have holidays but please take a few minutes out of your day to voice out. and if you can, perhaps do not celebrate and instead protest and keep emailing reps and posting about a complete ceasefire. please.

while some of us will be breathing a sigh of relief over the temporary ceasefire, people will STILL be dying. people ARE still dying. up until the very last minute. they’ve intensified their attacked. there is no “pause” for them.

please. your festivals come every year but these people… these children… once they’re gone, they’re gone. there will be no next year for them.

please keep speaking up. we’re not done yet. please.

HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP

m’not sure about donations still because the ceasefire doesn’t mean money will get to gaza right away BUT!!! care for gaza, the e-sims, hirbawi, and palaction are all donations you can make even with a blockade.

other than that, please sign all the petitions, join the campaigns and contact your reps using the various options provided. AND PLEASE remember to boycott companies listed by BDS

The Sims 4 Growing Together Expansion Pack

Strengthen family bonds, make friends or enemies, and discover your Sims’ truest selves with The Sims™ 4 Growing Together Expansion Pack*! The ways your Sims relate to those around them – from family members to Sims they’ve just met – are evolving. Both planned events like sleepovers and unexpected milestones like having a midlife crisis will shape your Sims and their relationships.

A LASTING IMPACT Key choices and milestones will help to shape who your Sims are. Unlock and change personality traits throughout your Sims’ lives as they cope with midlife crises, respond to family requests to move in, and more. Self-discovery is a lifelong journey.

FAMILY TIES The bonds between your related Sims are important and complex. As they experience life together there will be opportunities for both drama and unity that will affect family dynamics and Sims’ relationships with their family members.

SOCIAL DYNAMICS Sometimes Sims just click. Your Sim might have natural social chemistry with a Sim they meet at a party – or they might naturally clash. Your Sim will now have preferences that determine which Sims they are socially compatible with, and which Sims are more likely to become their enemies.

PERFECT FOR FAMILIES Located along an ocean bay, San Sequoia was once a small fishing village and has grown into a bustling town. It features quiet suburbs, a lively rec center, a tight-knit community, and even an influential local family – the Robleses.

The Sims 4 Growing Together is available on March 16th, 2023, on all platforms!

* REQUIRES THE SIMS 4 (SOLD SEPARATELY) AND ALL GAME UPDATES. SEE MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FOR THE PACK.

Studio updates with batch fix for CC beds

Hi all, the High School Years expansion added pillow fights on beds. Studio’s (Windows and Mac) batch fix updates CC beds so your Sims can pillow fight on them.

The batch fix has been tested on double beds, single beds, double mattresses on separated frames, and single mattresses on separated frames. If you encounter a bed or separated mattress that isn’t fixed by this batch fix, please report this so the batch fixer can be updated to work on all CC items.

On monetizing mods:

The pushback I’m seeing against EA’s no-paywalling policy is honestly…bizarre to me?

I’ve played a lot of games, but The Sims is the only one I’ve played that let other people profit off their IP. Imagine trying to monetize fanworks from any other game without the IP holder getting a cut of the profits… Bethesda? Rockstar? Blizzard? Nintendo? I’m sorry, but EA was being generous by allowing people to make money off their game assets in the first place. Other gaming companies would have just sued.

(** Any company would have a problem, not just games–imagine if EA was Disney. You can’t put so much as a Mickey Mouse silhouette on something and sell it without getting hit with a prompt cease-and-desist.)

I’m not sure if people are being purposely obtuse or if they really just don’t understand how IP laws (or user agreement contracts, which everyone who downloaded the game agreed to) work. “Don’t sell someone else’s intellectual property for a living” feels like a statement that shouldn’t need to be made. Whether you like EA as a company or not, IP laws either matter or they don’t–you can’t pick and choose when laws apply based on how you feel about the IP holder, or how much you think you deserve that money more.

It just doesn’t work like that. It never has.

As far as how this all affects the community…again: other games just don’t have this problem, so I’m not understanding the issue. Banning paywalled mods won’t hurt the community in the slightest. Skyrim modders consistently put out professional quality mods for free, because that’s just…how it is in other gaming communities? They make mods because they love the game. This monetization issue doesn’t exist for other games in the same capacity as it does for The Sims. (And even for Sims, it didn’t used to be this bad.)

In summary: EA’s newest policy update isn’t a shock, nor is it any kind of betrayal of the community. It’s just basic IP law and common sense/decency. 🤷

I understand people feel entitled to compensation for their work, but that just doesn’t apply to fanworks, and it never has. This is the wrong creative outlet for you if your primary goal is profit, in the same way fanfiction would be wrong for you. If you want to make money off making 3D models, you are perfectly free to do so on any number of sites created specifically for that. (TurboSquid, CGTrader, etc.) The Sims isn’t the place for it. Sorry.
