Nocturne

after:

before:

I've never thought my map would literally "come to life"! It used to be just a loading screen, but now it replaces the world selection menu, and you can click on the map and head to any sims city!

Ts4 Starter No CC Save File

get bundle version

get simple version

So, the foundation of this save is tourism, functional playable lots that fit in with the overall world and surrounding decor, an emphasis on playing with all families at once, moderation in everything, and simple, normal gameplay.

What do we have?

Edited cities, moderate amount of inter-lot TOOL work;

All EA characters + my own have been remade;

Dynasties/Clubs/Jobs/Skills/Relationships have been configured, a calendar, and holidays (under 14 days) for all characters in the rebuilt cities.

Aging is disabled for everyone, NPCs are present.

Each build and family has a storyline I've created, which can be traced either in the family description or through the characters' relationships with each other. I also recommend watching video reviews of the save on YouTube; I'll explain everything in more detail there.

Why?

- If you like my lots but are don't want to search and install them one by one;

- If you want the lots to blend in with the world and not be cluttered, but still be aesthetically pleasing and playable;

- if you want to travel more often with your characters across all worlds;

- if you want to have interesting sims, clubs, skills, jobs, calendar to play with;

Bundle!

In addition to the SAVE FILE itself, you will also have access to ALL my BUILDS in one zip folder and a WORLD MAP Loading Screen MOD!

Worlds Rebuild:

Sims:

Holidays | Calendar | Clubs and more:

So, I hope everyone will find a version that likes the most.

Update for Map Loading Screen

Important Update:

Since I made a mod where the map is available in the world selection panel, I decided to update the loading screen. What's new?

- The map size on the loading screen and in the world selection panel is now the same.

- Various map resolutions should be supported, including 4K and ultra-wide monitors (if you have display issues, please contact me).

- Added a green scale with an airplane instead of a dotted line and an airplane.

- Game tips are displayed above the green bar, you can also use my mod which removes them completely.

- The speed and smoothness of filling the scale depends on the power of your computer, I tried to make it as smooth as possible.

- Currently I'm working on a completely new version of the map with a bit different city layout, I've left only one version for this one, with Britechester and Foxbury near San Myshuno. I think this version is more relevant for gameplay, although I really like my second version, where the universities are separated. That's why I left the decorative Britechester University buildings near Henford.

An example of a map loading screen and world map panel (tips language will match your localization):

Lightning Mods and My Gshade Preset

So, to make the game beautiful and my preset look like mine, we'll need some graphics enhancements:

- First and foremost, lighting mods (I use both, depending on the world)

- Second, improving the world backgrounds. His recommendations also include replacing background trees and adjusting graphics settings (read the installation instructions carefully)

- Additionally, replacing clouds

- Lighting in the CAS (also affects the lighting of characters in the game)

- Remove the blue tint in rooms and sims

Now, regarding the preset, you can look at the images here and download it from there (I've written about each shader in detail; the archive includes shaders and textures for its proper work).

[ts2|ts3] to ts4 pets cc conversations

get them

While I'm waiting for ingame roofs to be fixed and can't take screenshots of Ondarion for posts and future uploads, I decided to convert some pet objects from TS3 that I’ve really wanted to have in TS4.

The set includes 11 objects. I made both clean and "dirty" swatches for the pet beds and dog houses, so you can play through not only an inherited farm storyline but a backyard dog house too!

The "Bone" sign comes in two versions: one can be hung on the wall, and the other can be placed on the roof or the ground.

The bench can be placed in vet clinics, and even the muddiest pup won't ruin your furniture!

A palm tree scratching post - because sims aren't the only ones who deserve a tropical vacation!

Oh, and a foosball table left over from the previous set is included too! It used to have occasional animation glitches, but I managed to fix them!

"A snack bar in the old railway station building. The perfect place to meet and discuss everything that's happening in the city."

The old train station completely came alive once the new burger menu dropped. Now, it’s a total hotspot: locals come out here to play board games and fully indulge in some guilty-pleasure food.

Old Shipyard

get it

"After a new, modern shipyard was built on the other side of the Wilupet Sound River, a wax processing and candle making factory was established here. "

I wanted to turn this whole area into an industrial hub, so you're gonna see a lot of factories around here. This spot used to be for fixing ships and unloading cargo, but today it’s home to a DIY candle-making and wax-crafting workshop. And by the way, you can actually drop in for a class.

'The Waterfront carpentry factory once stood empty, but after it was purchased and restored by the joint-stock company "Shtil", it opened its doors to anyone who wanted to work there or order "smart" furniture for their home.'

I mostly designed this lot as a workspace to roleplay a factory using club mechanics, but I also threw in everything you need for a community space. You can check out more about the vibe behind this lot and the whole neighborhood right here. Will soon also do eng video.

Rave Club "Factory"

get it

"This used to be a sawmill where the workers suffered from depression. Now, they play techno music 24/7, and your Sims will suffer only from hangovers and blisters! There's a huge dance floor, a bar made from old beams, and restrooms you shouldn't enter alone. The perfect place to practice your DJ skills or experience a midlife crisis. "

This rave club is totally inspired by the German clubs.
