The Sims 3 Smooth Patch 1.0

Yeah, you read correctly, I said Sims 3 :)

This mod makes the game’s logic threads run faster, speeding up loading of Buy/Build and CASt, smoother UI elements, smoother CAS, fixes CAS music randomly stopping. Can also speed up live mode and loading, it’s essentially a general improvement.

Steam/Disk version: SFS / Dropbox

Simply unzip the file into your “The Sims 3/Game/Bin” folder.

Origin version: SFS / Dropbox

For Origin, unzip the file into your “The Sims 3/Game/Bin” folder, and launch the game from “TS3PatchLauncher.exe” every time you want to play. It’ll be just like launching the game normally from Sims3Launcher, going through Origin and everything. If you’re bypassing the launcher by renaming your TS3.exe to Sims3Launcher.exe, it will also work just fine so don’t worry about it!

You can configure the mod by editing the TS3Patch.txt file with notepad. I left comments in that file on how to set it up if you’re having any issues or if you think your computer is good enough to increase the speed more (or decrease it if the default is too demanding)

The changes are most noticeable in CAS: Smoother body sliders, Sim rotation and quicker switching of clothes.

I’ve made an album with some GIFs showcasing the mod (Tumblr is not letting me embed Imgur so click on the link…):

An old tweet from thepancake1 made me give this a shot, as he hadn’t released any downloads or information on how to achieve it.

Can someone explain how to find The Sims 3/Game/Bin folder on Mac? I've read so many forums and cannot figure it~

Mine looks like this:

I saw this which seems to be the closest, but still no go: Applications/The Sims 3/The Sims 3.app - left click and select 'show package content'.

The path then is: Contents/resources/transgaming/c-drive/Program Files/Electronic Arts/The SIms 3/Game/Bin

Mad Max told a story about sexual violence and survivorship without relying on rape scenes to impress upon the audience how *serious* things were.

instead of watching the abuse on screen, we hear about it through the interactions between the wives. they tell us what happened, and in that way they take control of their own narrative.

rather than being voyeurs witnessing the wives’ trauma played out onscreen, we were an audience listening to their story.

and that makes a world of difference.

[scarlettohairdye]

THIS THIS THIS.

[jcalvinist]

So instead of showcasing the specific treatment we were told of it, which is the contrary philosophy of most filmmaking (show, don’t tell)

[mohala-sumiko]

or they made the decision to not sensationalize and fetishize the rape and brutalization of women. and in doing so spared the feelings of thousands of trauma survivors in their audience.

but whatever, film theory 101.

[smitethestate]

“Show don’t tell” is for FUCKING AMATEURS. 

[mad-madam-m]

This statement:

“So instead of showcasing the specific treatment we were told of it, which is the contrary philosophy of most filmmaking (show, don’t tell)”

demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of the idea behind “show, don’t tell.” I would argue that Mad Max: Fury Road DOES show us how the Wives were treated by Immortan Joe. However, it chooses not to do so in the obvious way (which would be showing the abuse), but rather by showing us in other ways.

We’re shown the message the Wives leave behind: “We are not things,” from which we can infer that’s exactly how they’ve been treated for God knows how long.

We’re shown that they wear flimsy white fabric that leaves their bodies on display, unlike pretty much everybody else in the film.

We’re shown them using boltcutters to rid themselves of chastity belts, devices which pretty much exist solely to remove a woman’s ability to choose her sexual partners.

We’re shown rage from the Dag when, even though time is of the essence, she takes the time to run back and kick one of the discarded belts as hard as she can before running back to join the others at the War Rig.

We’re shown Angharad using her pregnant body to shield Max and Furiosa from Immortan Joe, because she knows beyond a shadow of a doubt he won’t shoot her or her unborn child because he still views her as his property.

We hear Furiosa’s “Remember me?” before she kills Joe, and there’s so much fury and anger in those two words that you know she was a Wife before she was an Imperator.

We ARE shown what happened to the Wives. The issue lies in thinking that the only way to show that they were abused is to show the abuse itself. And as MM:FR demonstrates, that isn’t the case.

Can Pain Be Used to Treat Pain?

By Jeanne McArdle, Guest Columnist “Can you cure pain with more pain?” was the provocative question posed last month by National Public

“Can you cure pain with more pain?” was the provocative question posed last month by National Public Radio’s Invisibilia podcast, “The Fifth Vital Sign.”

The show features the story of Devyn, a 16-year old former gymnast living with chronic pain. Devyn broke the end of her thighbone and required surgery, but the injury never fully healed and her pain was spreading. She was diagnosed with “amplified pain syndrome” and enrolled in an unusual pain rehabilitation program at a Kansas City hospital that combined intense physical therapy and psychotherapy. Put simply, Devyn was taught to ignore her pain by being exposed to more of it.

The resounding backlash from the chronic pain and illness community was swift and fierce, blowing up NPR’s social media feeds with charges of endorsing torture and demands to pull the episode. An apology for “triggering” pain patients from podcast hosts Hanna Rosen and Alix Spiegel served only to generate more ire.

NPR’s Public Editor, Elizabeth Jensen, stepped in on March 15, publishing an opinion piece that parsed individual points of contention while somehow missing the main one: Patients were outraged that NPR provided free publicity to treatment programs that put children in tremendous pain on purpose.

The original pain rehabilitation program profiled in the Invisibilia podcast operates out of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. It is based on founder Dr. David Sherry’s belief that we do not accept pain as a natural part of life anymore. We focus on it and try to eliminate it — often making it worse.

Is there scientific evidence to support the theory that paying too much attention to pain causes it to spread elsewhere in the body? I couldn’t find any. I believe this idea is just woo and bunk. Widely accepted pain research shows that once nerves are sensitized it takes less and less stimuli to create more severe and widespread pain. It is important to break that cycle, to treat the pain, before moving forward with physical therapy and other treatments.

Sherry’s program takes the opposite approach. It rests on the unproven idea that flooding the patient with pain will reset her brain’s response to pain. Take away the patient’s pain meds, force her to engage in many hours of hard exercise each day, subject her to other painful stimuli, and her brain will no longer process pain as dangerous. It will become bored with pain.

Would you want someone with such an extreme view of pain to be in charge of your pain management program? Would you want him in charge of your child’s pain management program? (Read more at link)

This is so disgusting! If my back doesn’t hurt because I broke my ankle, I still have to deal with the pain of the broken ankle! Abled will do anything to not treat us with opioids.

[heyatleastitsnotcancer]

This is literally child abuse and Dr. Sherry is straight up taking advantage of scared parents to abuse children. The horror stories on the Philadelphia support groups about Sherry are absolutely terrifying.
