mhm if I have anything wrong or needs to be corrected please do let me know!!! I don’t want to be spreading misinformation 😭🙏

Generative AI serves nobody. Not even the CEOs/Corps using it, who think they'll save money and make bigger profits from it.

I don't know if I can articulate this right (brain fog is a helluva bitch), but in short:

Using AI will LOSE you sales. That's it. There's no gain.

The only people who will go see your movie, buy your game, etc, are people who either don't care about AI, or don't know it's been used. No one's gonna invest in your product because you used AI.

But thousands of us, who would've purchased otherwise, sure as hell won't if you use AI.

That's thousands of sales you just lost, and a company/brand you've tarnished forever.

And the more people discover your use of AI, your preference for cutting corners instead of hiring real people, all in an attempt to line your own pockets, the more sales you'll lose over time.

And even those who didn't mind/know about the AI use in the beginning, will start to tire of you sloppy work, unfinished/broken products, and shop elsewhere too.

Hell, even if you perfect the quality of AI products, you'll still not regain those that left because of it's use. We're not just out because it's sloppy.

Meanwhile, those who continued to employ real people to do real jobs and deliver real products, will be rolling in the sales you threw away. Because, in contrast, they will gain sales through the refusal to use AI.

Real people like to support real people. And we will back products and projects because of their moral stances.

You're NOT going to support the Sims 4 Marketplace with money, reblogs, etc.

You're NOT going to harass or bully creators who go on the Marketplace. Ignore them. Make them irrelevant. Don't feed the trolls, DON'T engage with and be shitty to people.

You WILL support FREE (and/or reasonable early access) creators. That means REBLOGS and advertising people's stuff in builds on social media (within reason). Not likes. Reblogs.

You'll spread the word about free alternative content-- let's be real, it's out there somewhere. The Sims 4 has SO MUCH custom content out there. I easily have content from over a T H O U S A N D creators on my HD. There is NO SHORTAGE of a million variants of the same type of item and thanks to all the available tools out there, making custom content is easier than ever.

You'll share 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️ on the high seas, if we can figure out how to do it.

You're not going to support billionaires' continuous human rights violations, environmental disasters, and global networks that literally want to take EVERYTHING from us, INCLUDING our creativity and our willingness to think for ourselves.

REASONS TO AVOID THE MARKETPLACE + ITS PARTICIPATING CREATORS + ITS CONTENT LIKE THE PLAGUE:

The Saudi investment group and TRUMP FAMILY buyout. 'Nuff said, but we'll continue.

The interest on EA's loan to do this buyout is going to be ~$1 BILLION annually. Them doing this means they are DESPERATE. We should NOT be rewarding them just because we want that fancy lipstick that, let's be honest, exists for free if you'd take like five minutes to go look on Google image or Pinterest.

EA is laying off workers to replace them with generative AI. They're closing other game studios. They would literally sell creators to Satan for a billion cornchips and they'd watch you roast in hellfire for a "cheap" laugh.

They haven't (as of this post) given an actual price-scaling metric - and in fact, have outright said it is subject to CHANGE. That means the pricing will NOT remain the same, EA has direct control over it, and the "value" of content is variable.

It's literally just gambling. Like holy fuck, this is so fucking predatory. And for those who don't know, the saying about gambling is, the house always wins. Casinos always rig shit to their favor to "run their business." Microtransactions work the same. Damn. Way.

Maxis literally wants the Marketplace to fail. They're hoping it dies and they're RIGHT to want that.

To be honest? I want to have sympathy for the folks who need $$$. But I can't, not at this point. There are multiple avenues of earning money through Patreon, Boosty, Substack, Modco, TSR (to a lesser extent), SimsFinds (formerly SimsDom), & even Curseforge - and yes, Curseforge does come with the caveat that they're part of an umbrella that helps support the IDF. Pretty sure I've even missed one or two other monetizing sites dedicated entirely to Sims content.

Creators who are joining up with the Sims 4 Marketplace are actively pouring little bits of gasoline on a forest fire in the middle of a dry summer with the reasoning that it'll help them be more warm at night.

Love that for you, but you are actively feeding something that is already wildly out of control and consuming the community.

With DXVK and S3SS living their high days, older Sims 3 installment guides are rapidly starting to become outdated. So here's a brand new and up-to-date step-by-step guide to go through when you do a fresh install of your game that will help you get the best performance you could possibly imagine for this old and laggy gem of a game.

Have Sims 3 installed, but is it performing abhorrently? I highly recommend a fresh install. You don't have to delete your saves or mods. Just get yourself a fresh bin to work with by uninstalling, going into your program files The Sims 3 folder and deleting any remnant files still in there. Then follow my guide!

All of the steps to follow are below the line ->

there's so many incredible cc makers out here making amazing content 100% free. because modding is a community. i absolutely disagree with monetised mods that are "officially" implemented. i was ok with the kits, it gave console players a little slice of what we get on pc, never been happy about the price of them, though. ea is a multi billion dollar company. this is corporate greed disguised as community and creativity.
