Nornities

Do you use the NRaas mods? Has the information on the NRaas website and forum ever been useful to you? If so, a moment of your time please!

I’d like to share the current situation with Simblr – which you can also read about directly from the site owner here: https://www.nraas.net/community/topic15428

While it seemed like we were entering an era of old-internet revival and indie websites in the fight against the dead-internet, a significant road block has emerged. Prices have inflated drastically for server parts, memory, storage, and server-hosting itself. This puts all non-profit online communities in peril.

As a result, the site owner has opened a Patreon so that the community can help cover the costs of keeping us online.

Important clarification:

The NRaas mods are NEVER going to be paywalled. The project will remain open-source and free for everyone. Donations are optional.

These mods are still in active development! The site and mods have been maintained by Chain_Reaction since Twallan's retirement, providing countless updates and support. Lots of cool stuff over there if you haven't updated in a hot minute.

There is no pressure to donate if your situation does not allow for it. Thank you for the consideration!

Long post ahead with information on the situation and some incentives for reaching membership goals.

Hi everyone!

The NRaas site is going to be unavailable for the next 10 days or so as we migrate to a new server - thanks to the incredible support!

The notice about this on the site will also go down in a few more hours, so hopefully you'll see this or the MTS post to reassure that we haven't fallen off the face of the earth.

What might be hidden behind this door? It might be for Sims two, three or four! There is only one way to find out :)

Happy Simming :)

It will be available after Christmas in the regular DL section (as all other goodies).

That means that when you donate, it goes to change.org. Now, this isn't useless — it does mean that the petition gets boosted. However, you're pretty much doing the same thing by reblogging. I am concerned about people donating something like $40 dollars since I'm not sure if they realize it doesn't contribute to the legal fund or not.

The new day was warm, crisp and cloudless. After some more melon slices as breakfast, Captain Beaudard went off for a little exploring of his own. Fallonfuchs had run to the north the day before, he went west.

A cloudless day always held the promise to turn into a cloudless night. His stars might be revealed, and finally offer him a clue of where they had stranded.

He wished he had his looking glass, though. To search the horizon too. But it had to be done with the naked eye, squinting.

The island was beautiful. As was the empty horizon. One steady, calm line.

At camp, Lady Aerdenwald paced the beach. She felt uneasy with the Captain gone. Yet, from the corner of her eye, she could see him run in the distance, and halt, look about him, and run again. He would never leave her view. And somehow, she suspected he did that on purpose. For her. Just like he'd made sure she'd got some rest that night, on the logs, taking turns with the children. In between her naps she had seen some of the men sleep on the beach sand, but he had always sat near her on the cowhide, looking at the clouds high above. He kept watch.

It was as if Captain Beaudard remembered the promise he made to her father, all by himself.

Today I’m happy to release Praaven Reworked, a new version of Praaven by jje1000/potato-ballad-sims, edited by Simsmidgen and me. As usual this project took longer than expected. But with the help of our many fantastic testers all is well that ends well.

Simsmidgen and I tweaked some things more to our liking, replaced broken CC, reduced the overall amount of required CC, recoloured EA objects and/or replaced them, fixed major routing issues, reduced world file size, replaced/fixed all those bloody arches and stacked staircases, thinned spawners, improved terrain painting (at least we think so). We added the two festival lots by lowrisim and tweaked them a bit and also made sure that the tomb can be solved (yes, there is a tomb, go looking for it!). We tried to leave the world as original as possible though (apart from the things that didn’t work well). Public release is with permission of potato-ballad-sims.

Reblogging this because I noticed the DL link would give you the world file and nothing else. Not sure when or how that happened, as this has been out for more than 4 years now and no one complained. So I just hope for the best. Anyway.
