You are free to do whatever you want with this shirts, I just recolored this top from EA and made some of my own patterns, grabbed a few from the game too. I'm inexperienced when it comes to CC making so dont expect the quality to be like that of EA or some of the more talented modders. I am planning to make a similar version of this cc using other shirts as a base.

If you put a republican sim in my cc, i will bust your knee-caps <3

My Rotational Gameplay Settings (and Mods)

I put together a guide on how I setup my game to rotate between a few main families. I hope this helps other folks, and please share any ideas you have as well!

be forewarned, it's LONG!

First off, let me explain how I use a few terms. I divide my households into certain categories: - my main families (that I play when I rotate) - NPCs (think nonplayer sims that I made for a specific role - Townies (think sims that the game auto-populates to fill a role) - and other families (families that I don't actively play with)

Story Progression vs. MCCC I prefer Story Progression over MCCC. It's simple and meets my needs. I have story Progression turned off for my main families, though. And if you want to use Story Progression exclusively, make sure to have the override in MCCC disabled, and set all the marriage settings to 0. You can do a combination of Story Progression and MCCC marriage, but I don't. I prefer to manually, match up sims every so often and I have a calendar event to remind me to do this. You could let MCCC or Story Progression handle this, but I like to decide how this will happen. Especially since I use Home Regions, I want to keep my sims entanglements local, unless I think an "international" romance or move is in the cards for them.

Game Option Settings

Neighborhood Stories: Enabled Auto Age (Played Households): Yes Auto Age (Unplayed Households): Yes Sim Lifespan: Normal (I used to play on long but now I use these MCCC aging settings ever since EA did us dirty with that CAS aging bug. It ruined all of my saves and backups!!) Season Length: See Sim Lifespan

Settings for "Townies" Households: You can learn more about how I control which sims my game imports here and here. In my gallery these, these households are all saved under "Townies" so I can sort by that term using Tmexi's Searchable Household Management mod. IMPORTANT! The MASTER configuration for Neighborhood Stories affects ALL sims in "Other Households" and for all of my townie households this is what I have (see pic below). I don't really want their households to grow or expand, I think of them as service sims and background characters. They can come and go so to speak.

Settings for "NPC" Households: Next, in my gallery these, these households are all saved under "NPC: [insert something here]" (i.e NPC: Landlord) so I can sort by them also using Twistedmexi's Searchable Household Management mod. Since the MASTER configuration for Neighborhood Stories affects ALL sims in "Other Households", these sims' settings have to be set manually one-by-one if you want them to differ from the other settings, for example I usually don't want these folks to "die in accidents" so I turn that off.

Settings for "Family" Households: In my gallery these, households are all saved under "[Insert surname here] Family" (i.e. Freedmans Family) so I can sort by them also using Twistedmexi's Searchable Household Management mod. Since the MASTER configuration for Neighborhood Stories affects ALL sims in "Other Households", these sims' settings have to be set one-by-one as well if you also want them to differ from the other settings. For example, I usually don't want these folks to "die in accidents" so I turn that off (like above). And sometimes I change the settings for them to be able to adopt children and pets too. Depends on the family and what I envision for them.

Recommend Mods:

kuttoe's Home Regions (keeps sims in their local regions/worlds)

twistedmexi's Searchable Mods + Neighborhood Stories Viewer

littlemssam's Let Friends Age Up (this mod allows you to control when all sims age up.)

Lot 51's Slower Stories

MissyHissy's Gossip about Neighborhood Stories

flauschtrud's Neighborhood Stories: Marriage+Suggestions - adds Get Married option to neighborhood stories. (cf waring)

KaylaDot's Neighborhood Stories Expanded here (cf waring)

Carl's Download Carl's Gender Preferences Randomizer Tool

How I Deal with the Game Importing Townies:

importing and dressing them using mccc here and here

aging settings here

Tips & Other considerations:

Consider adding an extra rotation if you want to play with random households for a bit and take a break from your mains. Sometimes it's just nice to just explore other NPC households more in-depth. I did that with the Staleys (see random gameplay tags) and other families in my forever savefile.

I'll updated this as I think of things that I missed. Have questions? Let me know.

Hi I have a question! Thanks for following me btw I love you smmm! I’m working on a forever save, and I want it to be cc lite. I’ve been downloading a bunch of cc since I built my pc but my game is already slowing down 😭 if you could recommend where you find your realistic builds/shells and how to get started with building and decorating that would be amazing!! I’m having so much trouble I want to teach myself to build but have no idea where to start 😔 thanks in advance!

Hiii,

I swear I was already following you. Sometimes I have to re-follow people, I think Tumblr does something sneaky sometimes.

But anywho, onto the question.

For build blogs I recommend following @publicvanillabuilds and I have a builds tag on my ccfinds blog here. Also, check out my wcif tag too! I have build recs there.

Also, there are some really talented folks in our community like @yellowduck3 @beetlemp3 @reblueka @lobo-crujiente @egorka0. These folks are cc free or cc lite.

Some folks I recommend following on the gallery too are sonechk0 CatSaar and nengster65.

Oshinsims has a bunch of CC free or cc lite gameplay videos (on youtube) and she sometimes recommends builders too.

I actually keep a notepad full of creators that I check every once in a while because I’ve reached the limit on the number of creators I can follow on the gallery.

For inspo I use my brain (lol) or pinterest for ideas! Also I am super inspired by creators here. There's a lot of folks on the sims 4 vanilla tags like @whyeverr who make amazing builds and gameplay.

Hope this helps, happy simming!

Keeping Lag to a Minimum...

I was chatting about a few things I do to combat lag over on discord and realised I do quite a bit of maintenance to reduce lag/load times. I decided to write em all down and before I knew it, I had a big ol' list. Here's hoping it helps!

Save/File Tips:

Clear your caches (located in the same spot as your mod folder fyi) I usually delete the onlinethumbnailcache, avatarcache and localthumbcache caches every time I exit the game, the main one to delete regularly is the localthumbcache file, they're just temporary files but it can get pretty big after a while.. if you're having any mod issues, particularly ui ones, it's always worth deleting that to see if it helps.

Remove any saves you're not using from your saves folder, and keep an eye on save file sizes. In my experience, any saves over around 30-40mb start to get a bit laggy. Things that bump this size up are the amount of townies in game and the amount of lots/objects in the world.

Regarding the above point, I regularly bulldoze lots I don't need anymore, just to save the game from having to cope with extra shit to load in the background and reduce save file bloat.

Similarly, I delete a lot of unnecessary townies. Also, try to keep the amount of outfits on townies to a minimum, ain't no townie need four swimsuit outfits, the game will thank you..

If you have cheats enabled you can usually shift-click/delete object on things like random coffee cups or stray cupcakes sims foolishly drop around the world (or eat em.. whatever tickles ur pickle) just get rid!

Whilst we're keeping objects in game to a minimum.. I try to clear sims inventories now and then, including townies. You can do this via mccc even if you're not currently playing that household by heading to MC Cleaner -> Sell Sim Inventory/Sell Household Inventory. RANDOM LUMPS OF CLAY BEGONE!

Think of a save file like a lot.. the more objects in it, the laggier it gets! Try your best to remove anything or anyone unnecessary where you can.

Hit "Save As" instead of "Save" now and then - the more you overwrite a save, the more chance it has of going wonky, treat your game to a fresh one now and then and remove the old one from your saves folder (maybe don't delete it right away in case you wanna roll back, keep it somewhere safe).

If you can (although ik it can be a pain) set up a new/fresh save, you'd be surprised how bogged down old ones can get! For legacy players, it's usually best to do this whenever you have a small family to save yourself some pain, since you can just save the household and take em to a new save (you will lose sims inventories/household inventories/relationships with sims outside the household tho so beware! Pictures/other collectables can be saved to a lot however, and you can always cheat back relationship bits etc.. bit of a last resort but new saves are shiny and fast!)

Make sure your Screenshots/Video folders are empty - move em somewhere else, it works, trust me. If you have a lot of custom music installed try n' clear some of those out too.. the smaller that Sims 4 directory is, the better.

Delete any last exceptions/last crashes (same spot as your mod folder again) you don't need em unless you're planning to upload em somewhere for help.

Settings Etc:

If you get a bad lag spike, opening the main menu and/or saving can randomly stop this. If it doesn't, try exiting the game, clearing your localthumbcache and restarting.

Clearing all notifications from the game panel can also help.

If you can, close all other apps and background apps you don't need whilst playing, ts4 is super memory hungry so it can definitely help.

The GraphicsRules Override file by Simp4Sims can reduce lag/latency and make your game look a little better in the process!

Srslysims Simulation Lag Fix mod can help reduce lag too (if you've altered the game speed via mccc tho, don't use this unless you plan on resetting it to default).

If you aren't keen on, or barely use a pack, consider disabling it.

Not ideal, especially for those of us taking screenshots, but lowering the graphics settings whilst playing definitely helps.

If you use re/g-shade, consider switching it off whilst playing and only turn it on for screenshots.

A clean and tidy pc/laptop runs better in general. Remove anything you're not using/don't need anymore to free up space, remove temp files, clean up your folders now and again etc etc.. especially that dreaded mod folder, speaking of...

Managing Mods:

SORT OUT YOUR MODS FOLDER FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.. skdsjdjs it doesn't have to be immaculate but at the very least try n' clear it out now n' then. Also try to separate your script mods/overrides from the rest, patch days don't need to be so stressful ;-;

Personally, I don't merge my mods; if something breaks it's much harder to pinpoint! It makes it easier to find/delete specific mods too.. and let's face it, there's usually one or two items in that set you could do without lmaooo.. also, don't think it helps much tbh! Yeah you could say the game doesn't have to work as hard to load merged files but that's debatable, it's still the same amount of items/polys at the end of the day ¯\(°_o)/¯

If you like merging files and/or see results from doing so, you can merge stuff you definitely know you're never getting rid of, especially CAS/BB stuff.. but steer clear of merging gameplay/script mods! If a merged file seems to be the culprit when using the 50/50 method, try unmerging it and 50/50ing it again! You might not need to get rid of everything if something's borked.

Bulk Rename Utility can be used to remove all spaces and special characters from your mod files, the game doesn't particularly like loading those so it'll thank you.

The Sims 4 Mod Manager is a great way to sort through your mods, you can easily see, move and delete files from here (not great for build/buy, poses etc as thumbnails are usually missing, but great for CAS stuff). An extra hint with this that I've noticed is that if any of my mods get renamed with [D1] at the beginning after looking through them via the mod manager, it means it's a duplicate file so you can get rid.

I also use the Sims 4 Tray Importer to help me sort through mods. Simply save a sim/lot with any cc you don't want and find it in the importer, you can then go through all the cc in the cc tab and delete/sort it (I also use this to sort cc if a bunch has the wrong tags etc, makes it easier to find in my folders by saving em to a lot or w/e - it also spots duplicates which is handy).

It's a ballache, but the 50/50 method is tried and tested if you're having issues.

I like to keep an abandoned cc folder tucked away somewhere, that way you can remove mods willy nilly without stressing about losing them. If you change your mind, you can always grab it back!

Gallery and library bug - unable to save item, found a non-obvious solution

After two days of reinstalling and dancing around the game, I found a solution for me (not a guarantee that it will work for you with the same problem). If you encounter an error when saving a site, when it is not possible to save the building to the library or gallery, - try lowering the game graphics to the minimum - save and exit -re-enter under these low settings - and after this I was able to save the site. I hope EA will fix this bug in the next updates.🤨🤨🤨 In the meantime, I'll take a little break and try to bring back the inspiration for new builds.

[bartoszsims3]

two versions: brief and thong. a sleek little underwear set that comes in two variations: a classic brief and a cheeky thong. I’ve updated the textures with a subtle shine for that extra touch, and yes… they finally have proper thumbnails too! Simple, sexy, and made to fit just right. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
