just a few simple loading screens for now â nothing special. I need to free up some space in my drafts, so maybe someone will like them. I think they go nicely with the splash screens I made earlier.
â ď¸ only use one file of this type at a time!
- if you find any issues, just let me know :)
- do not claim!!
Base game, EP03, EP07, EP11, EP12. Other worlds use base game clouds. Default replacement.  Will conflict with any other clouds replacement. Just put them and unpack in your Mods folder.
A save file including more than 400 Sims, including 250 played ones, around 120 lots and plenty of lore!Â
After all this time, Iâm finally able to share the first version of my save! đ This save is the result of years of playing the Sims 4, as some of the Sims you are seeing there were first created 10 years ago (and some of them have followed me since the Sims 1!). It all started with two worlds, Henford-On-Bagley and Tartosa and 50 Sims (as those worlds werenât being built by my brother Rope), but it was then expanded to way more than that.
Please take the time to read all this post, as it gives some important informations on how to enjoy this save the best way đ¤
đ Pour mes amis francophones, vous pouvez tĂŠlĂŠcharger la sauvegarde en français et lire toutes ces instructions en suivant ce lien.
đľÂ This save is the result of years of work! If youâve been enjoying it or any of my content, your support would mean so much! A small donation here could go a long way, especially as I navigate my career change. Thank you!
You are free to enjoy this save as you like, and if you post screenshots of you playing there, you can use the #DownInSaveLand on Bluesky to share your stories đ¤Š
You can modify anything you want for your personal use, but please, donât share Lots and Sims from this save and claim it as your own. If you want to use those as a base for your creations, please ask me first.
Worlds and Lots
In order to keep the save reasonable in terms of size, I had to focus on a limited number of worlds. In those worlds, you will find lots built by me (and some builds based on original builds from @simsontherope, heavily or lightly edited) and the worlds outside the lots are customized using the TOOL mod.
Fully edited worlds: Henford-On-Bagley, Tartosa, Del Sol Valley, Sulani, Brindleton Bay, Nordheaven, Copperdale, Forgotten Hollow, Granite Falls, Selvadorada
GTW career lots are also included, as well as some other random lots in worlds not listed here. My goal was to be able to enjoy most of the pack's functionalities. Everything was playtested, and should be functional.
Sims
One of my favorite things is creating characters, therefore I have a lot of Sims living in this save, all created by me. None of the original premades are here, except some necessary townies (that I made over of course).Â
You might notice that some worlds include a lot of Sims (the record is Del Sol Valley with 19 played households) and some others donât, and include more community lots. It comes from the way I started working on this save where I filled in only a few worlds at the start, but then expanded it.Â
All the Sims come with outfits (3 Everyday, 2 Hot Weather, 1 for the other categories, and a customized work outfit), additional traits, skills, careers, preferences, lifestyles and anything you can customize.
Lore
The most exciting part for me is the lore I created in the save file. You will be able to discover all the stories of those Sims in many ways!
Each household comes with a description, custom photos on their house for some of them, and even the books in their bookcases are customized.Â
Each Sim has many relationships (with family and romance dynamics, romantic satisfaction, sentiments), and milestones to tell their stories.
I canât wait for you to explore all of that and their dynamics!
Requirements
I'm using all the packs (EP, GP, SP and Kits) and pre-order items that have been released up to May 2025. For event items, in case you haven't unlocked everything, these Lunar mods may help: here & here đ
I also used the Plumbob lamps unlocked by owning Sims 3 packs in two builds, you can grab them here if needed (Alma Mater Reward and Your Name In Lights Reward). Thanks @diemilchschnitte !
Recommended mods
No mods are mandatory to discover the save, but I do have some recommended mods in order to enjoy the save to its fullest.
My mods:
Overall, the whole save has been built and designed to be used with all my mods. But some are more important than others if you want to get the most out of the save (but again, nothing compulsory).
Multipurpose lots (đŞ Multi-Purpose Lot Traits, đ Functional Registers, đď¸ Rent a Room): I'm using the three mods on this page to add functionality to my lots, particularly residential rentals. If you don't take the ââRent a Roomââ mod, some doors in community plots may be locked (mainly hotel rooms). You can just put the doors back in buy mode to unlock them.
𧲠Improved Turn-On & Turn-Offs: I used this mod to set these turn-on and turn-offs, if you don't have it, the Sims might just have some weird preferences on other Sims' outfit colours.
đ No Outfit Change When Promoted: I've spent some time defining the work outfits for all the Sims, it would be a shame to have an ugly outfit by default if you don't use this mod! The other mods on this page are also useful for limiting inconvenience and regulating visitors on lots.
đˇ No Townie Generation and Relaxed Filters: The save includes all the necessary NPCs and Townies if you use this one, it will prevent the generation of new Sims completely (there are already more than enough Sims in this save!)
đ§âđ¤âđ§ Interact in Tight Spaces: As my lots are cluttered and are in general small, it makes Sims interacting in them way better.
Other creators:
More Selectable Icons - Zerbu: I'm using it for club icons, but as the mod can make the game lag, and I'm only using it for clubs, you can download here a limited version, which only keeps a small selection for clubs (and if you have a mod to add small business icons, it's compatible).
Milestones Expanded - Lumpinou: Useful if you want a more complete view of my Sims' milestones, you might just lose some information if you don't use it.
TOOL - TwistedMexi: It's only useful because it includes a fix that ensures items placed in the world are not deleted when you load a residential rental.Â
MCCC - Deaderpool or any other mod that prevents Sims from culling, because there are a lot of them in my save, and the game might remove them.
Visual mods:
Eye replacement : If you donât have ones, those ones are great
Sunblind : Make the outdoor lightning way better
Out of the dark : Fixes the blue light in dark spaces
Mods for the save:
Those are some mods that I created specifically for this save file.
Open World: another very optional mod, especially if you don't have a very powerful PC, but as I've added extra stalls, bars and other stuff to certain parts of the worlds, it makes the worlds more lively. Once again, there's no risk if you don't remove it on another save, you'll just get NPCs appearing without much to do.
World Sorter: this mod just lets you sort the worlds in the selection screen so that the worlds I've modified appear first.

With all of that said, I think there is nothing more to add, so enjoy!

As part of the fundraiser we are holding for the trevor project I'm releasing my personal preset that I'd describe as an 'elevated' vanilla preset!
It's a bit moodier, the colors are more muted, the greens are more of a cyan than yellow, overall my goal was it to give the game more of a realistic look while still honoring the classic cartoony sims charm! :)
The preset drew a lot of inspiration from the arcadia preset by pearlean, simhatton by piixxa and miugren - would recommend checking them out!!
Controls
PPFX SSD0 - F7
MXAO - F8
ADOF - F9
qUINT_Relight - F10
iMMERSE Ultimate: ReLight - F11
Information
I'd recommend turning MXAOFFXIV off for gameplay
All of the pictures were taken with SRWE - thumbnail used Bloom and SmartDeNoise I usually just turn these on for Screenshots
Socials
YouTube / Twitter / Fundraiser
introducing Vanilla Bean - vanilla-esque gshade preset designed specifically for gameplay. It's not too shadow-heavy, non-intrusive and you can still see and read all necessary info during gameplay.
all effects are in the standard download of gshade, minus relight. I think i have everything set up though?? note that I tweak my relight all the time according to the scene!
*i do use Sunblind by Softhaze btw!
TOU: literally whatever. Go crazy. If you use my preset as a base and choose to upload it, please just credit me & link back to this post <3
i dont fuckin know how to format tumblr posts, bear with me;;
soo, preset! i think its nice :] i was inspired by my favorite metric album; wanted to go for something warm and nostalgic - i think i did a good job!
info //
made for gshade. i followed @/veone's tutorial on how to download and use it after the whole malware fiasco; altho it works just fine on reshade if you get the required textures and shaders :D
toggle keys for ssr, volumetric fog, dof, comic outlines, 4:3 aspect ratio border to crop your screens and lens dirt overlay! its very hands on;;
definitely not suitable for gameplay. in fact im sure itll fry your gpu, do not recommend having this guy on for too long lmao
i also use the following lighting mods - no blu (darkest), into the light, shadows for days, sunblind, graphics rules overhaul
PLEASE tag me if you use it!! seeing ur screens would actually make me fuckin cry asgjkdsfksd
This is one of the many presets born from me trying to make one to be my main one. So expect many more, I'll be sharing them all!ă
BIGGER BEFORE & AFTERS: O1 ⢠O2 ⢠O3
You'll find the download below the cut at the end of the post, some mandatory stuff is listed before.

1 â I'm using â Sunblind by @softerhaze and Even Better In-game Lighting Mod (Bright) by @northernsiberiawinds
ă
2 â MANDATORY DOWNLOAD:
The Moods MultiLUT by @pictureamoebae
(Tbh a must even if you don't use my preset!)
To install amoebae's MultiLUT just open your GShade Control Panel > Installs > Open Custom Shaders & Textures Folder.
DO NOT copy the "reshade-shaders" from MultiLUT download. Instead open it and merge the "Shaders" and "Textures" folders from inside it with the ones from GShade's. â Here's a gyazo video showing what I mean!
You won't need to download Prod80's Framework as stated by amoebae, GShade already comes with all Prod80's shaders.

ADD THESE TO YOUR PREPROCESSOR DEFINITIONS:
ă
SHORTCUTS LIST:
(on/off is for what it is by default)
ă
PRO TIP: I always adjust the "BloomAndLensFlares" shader to my needs, which is where the magic of this preset lies. The settings I'm uploading it with may be too strong or too light for some cases, so it really depends on your shot. Just mess with the "fBloomThreshold" slider a bit and see what I mean and, if you're feeling confident, mess with the "fBloomAmount" altogether.

Lately has been a pain trying to share stuff since srwe is lowkey not working for me right now, but I was able to take sooome screenshots so here we go.

*** I'm using the milk thistle mod and better in game lighting mod in my game; the colors may look different in your game if not installed.
I have been struggling with a CAS mask item that I wanted to share for Edgewave and it's not working thusfar, and I still wanted to share something for it. So here are some cute photo spots, and some takeout food for your sims!
If anyone wants to make poses for the surf wave photo spot, please do!
Most Pocket Camp items have only 1 swatch, so some items have extra swatches added by me đ
I hope you enjoy! đ
Note for patrons: There will be a new poll for June posted on the 3rd of the month (always on the 3rd of the month, around 12 noon EST) Remember to come and vote! đ
Always suggested: bb.objects ON, it makes placing items much easier. For further placement tweaking, check out the TOOL mod.
Use the scale up & down feature on your keyboard to make the items larger or smaller to your liking. If you have a non-US keyboard, it may be different keys depending on which alphabet it uses.
I do not use DX11 with my game.If you are using DX11 & having issues with CC, run the DX11 batch fix with Sims 4 Studio before starting your game. For those that have never done it, do not fear for it is very simple and will update any CC in your mods folder that needed it. I know the new DX11 API causes issues having something to do with the wall items, that I know of, but seems to sometimes effect thumbnails or causes other issues. If you do not have Sims 4 Studio, here is a link about how to install it from their official website. And of course, if you need help please send me a message.
Download below, all in a zip file or pick & choose!
Type âacpc summer concert" into the search query in build mode to find quickly. You can always find items like this, just begin typing the title and it will appear.
As always, please let me know if you have any issues! Happy Simming! đ
