More Realistic Lifespans in The Sims 4

I saw a video on Youtube and I wanted to share this post with you guys. It came to my attention that people use rather different lifespans in their games, but nobody talks about how they determine them. If you are using MCCC to modify the lifespans in your game like I do, here is my method that I formulated over the years to make them feel more realistic.

If your gameplay style is fast-paced, this method is definitely not for you. But if you enjoy long-lasting legacy gameplay, you may find this useful.

I am a bit too literal about lifespans. I like it being as close to as RL. Unlike the players who equate 1 sim-day to 1 sim-year, I base a sim-year on the duration of the in-game calendar.  The calendar provides me the multiplier I need when I’m calculating how long a lifespan should be, in sim-days.

If I am using the shortest season length (1 week for each season), 1 sim-year = 28 sim-days

If I am using medium season length  (2 weeks for each season), 1 sim-year = 56 sim-days

If I am using the maximum season length (4 weeks for each season), 1 sim-year = 112 sim-days

Here is how I perceive the life stages in the sims 4, based on human years (a.k.a. real life, duh) :

Elder: 60-70

Adult: 35-60

Young Adult: 20-35

Teen: 12-20

Child: 5-12

Toddler: 0-5

Before I trigger anyone, let’s clarify one thing.  In my opinion, how we perceive age is relative. If your definition of an adult or an elder is different than mine, that is totally fine. Feel free to tweak the numbers, replace them with the ones that make more sense to you, considering how you perceive or define a certain age-group in human years.

So, my calculation looks like,

B (Max. RL age) - A (Min. RL age) = C (Lifespan in human years)

C (Lifespan in human years) x S (sim-days in a sim-year, a.k.a. the multiplier) = Y (Lifespan of the life stage in sim-days)

Let’s see the formula again, but clearer,

B - A = C

C x S = Y

Now let’s put this formula in action. With basic mathematics, the duration of lifespans should be calculated like this;

If the season length is set to minimum, 1 week for each season:

Elder => 70 - 60 = 10 (x 28) ==> 280 sim-days

Adult => 60 - 35 = 25 (x 28) ==> 700 sim-days  

Young Adult => 35 - 20 = 15 (x 28)  ==> 420 sim-days

Teen => 20 - 12 = 8 (x 28)  ==> 224 sim-days

Child => 12 - 5 = 7 (x 28)  ==> 196 sim-days

Toddler => 5 - 0 = 5 (x 28)  ==> 140 sim-days

If the season length is set to moderate, 2 weeks for each season:

Elder => 70 - 60 = 10 (x 56) ==> 560 sim-days

Adult => 60 - 35 = 25 (x 56) ==> 1400 sim-days  

Young Adult => 35 - 20 = 15 (x 56)  ==> 840 sim-days

Teen => 20 - 12 = 8 (x 56)  ==> 448 sim-days

Child => 12 - 5 = 7 (x 56)  ==> 392 sim-days

Toddler => 5 - 0 = 5 (x 56)  ==> 280 sim-days

If the season length is set to maximum, 4 weeks for each season:

Elder => 70 - 60 = 10 (x 112) ==> 1120 sim-days

Adult => 60 - 35 = 25 (x 112) ==> 2800 sim-days  

Young Adult => 35 - 20 = 15 (x 112)  ==> 1680 sim-days

Teen => 20 - 12 = 8 (x 112)  ==> 896 sim-days

Child => 12 - 5 = 7 (x 112)  ==> 784 sim-days

Toddler => 5 - 0 = 5 (x 112)  ==> 560 sim-days

Right now I am using the maximum settings for my game :) I know this may seem insanely long for the majority of simmers, but rest assured, the time flies when you are playing on maximum speed, and they grow up faster than you’d even imagine :)

So, this is another one of my little attempts at making the game more visually enjoyable.

To emulate believable reflections without setting fire to everyone’s computer, what most games do is use cubemaps. Simply put, they’re images layered underneath everything that move depending on the camera position. Parallax and all that stuff.

What developers usually do for sandbox/open-world games is automatically generate cubemaps so that it actually looks like objects are reflecting the world around them. For whatever reason (probably performance), TS4 doesn’t do that. The developers use premade images with white squares that vaguely resemble windows and stuff, cause most of the time when you’re indoors that’s where light comes from.

Now, that doesn’t always work. And with that I mean it almost never works. When it’s completely dark, for example, the cubemaps get completely blown out, and instead of a nice reflection you get a weird alien glow on your kitchen tiles. You also just get random reflections that don’t really come from anywhere, and that can be a little immersion breaking. I personally hate it. 

So I replaced all cubemaps in the game with empty, black textures. That way, they become transparent and don’t ever show up at all. To me, that looks way better, the game looks more natural and things look less plastic-y. It’s my personal preference, and I’m posting this here in hopes that maybe someone else likes this look as well :)

All pictures in the post are taken with both my ITTL and OOTD mods! Highly recommend you to use both of those as well.

Changing Lot Sizes S4S

First of all, this statement was made some time ago: “You can’t make a lot bigger. The size is given. To place bigger houses you need to put them on bigger lots.”

Well, you can’t change lot sizes IN the game, but you can change lot sizes in Sims 4 Studio 😇 And yes, you can freely build on its altered size! Just for secret lots (and non-residential lots) such as the Forgotten Grotto, Sixam, and Sylvan Glade you’ll have to enable the bb.enablefreebuild cheat.

Here’s a test example of the lot size altered to 28x in Sylvan Glade:

And another one altered to 40x:

In the same world file you can also alter its position, right now you can see that almost half of the lot is covered by the world props (mountains).

The tutorial will continue below the read more cut~

Change the name of any world in any save file.

Have you ever wanted to change the name of the worlds in your save file on a whim? With this handy trick, you can change the name of any world at any time. The names are never permanent.

Requirements:

⁠—  Sims4Studio

⁠— Open Sims 4 Studio and click My Projects.

— Locate your saves folder located at (Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\saves).

— At the bottom right corner, make sure you select Sims 4 Save (*save).

⁠— Here you’ll see all of your save files. Double click your desired save file to open it.

⁠— Search for Save Game Data on the left hand side and select it.

⁠— On the right hand side, scroll down until you find neighborhoods. Click Edit Items… to the right of it.

⁠— Finally, on the left side you’ll see [NeighborhoodData]. These are each world in the game. Click each one until you find your desired world. The world name is displayed on the right hand side.

⁠— On the right side, simply change the name of the world.

⁠— Now click the blue save button then save again in Sims 4 Studio. 

You’re done! When you open your game and load into the save you’ll notice the world names have changed! You can always repeat these steps to change the names again. You can also change the names of multiple worlds.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! Happy Simming!

How to get rid of lines that appear on sims/objects/walls

This bug came back when I updated my laptop and I’ve been seeing a lot of people recently that have this bug, so I decided to make a little tutorial on how to get rid of it.

LAG+ENDLESS LOADING SCREEN FIX!

PART 1

Downloading millions of cc will REALLY slow down your game, but there is an easy way to fix this. I for one used to wait so long for my game to start up, and now it takes 3-4 minutes MAX.

STEP 1) Download MOD CONFLICT DETECTOR

The link is going to take you to a page that look likes this. Note it says ‘UPDATE’ but you DON’T want to download the newest version because it’s complicated and doesn’t work like the original.

Download the very first link. 

Once that’s downloaded, it’ll take you to a page that looks like this. 

Double click the one that says Application (Highlighted Above). NOTE: If you are not taken to this page, type “MTS” in the search bar and it will come up.

Once that is open, this will show.

Make sure that the options are checked like below. Once everything is checked correctly, click “scan”.

Wait for it to scan everything and something like this will show.

The colors on the bottom left corner will tell you what file is what.

NOTE: BLUE FILES AND GREEN FILES SHOWN ARE 99.9% NOT CONFLICTING WITH THE GAME SO LEAVE THE CC ALONE!

Often times you will get some odd files that are green and/or blue, so you can delete them. Just make sure to READ the file and make sure it’s NOT a package file.

STEP 2) Deleting Corrupt Files

Sometimes, we can download duplicates and Sims 3 items. In order to delete them, just right click on the file and 

-Go down to ‘DELETE’>’MOVE TO RECYCLE BIN’>OK

You can also click on several files to delete by checking the little circle next to the file.

It may ask you to update this version but I just click “no”.

Hope this helps!

Any items that don’t show up in game can be deleted very easily. Click HERE for a tutorial~

DELETING CORRUPT CC

PART 2 

Some CC won’t show up in game but we can delete it by downloading SIMS 4 TRAY IMPORTER

STEP 1) Download and Install

Once you click the link, scroll down and find where it says “Google Drive”.

It’ll take you to this page. 

Click and download the one that says “Sims4trayimporter”.

This may or may not pop up, but just click “no thanks” if it does.

STEP 2) CREATING A SIM 

Now in order for this to locate what file is corrupt, you need to create a sim wearing the corrupt clothes. 

MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS STEP BEFORE OPENING “Tray Importer”

Then you just save the “household” to your library. 

Next, EXIT the game and open “Tray Importer”.

STEP 3) DELETING FILES

Your saved sim should be there, so click it and this will show up.

Click “CC” and find the file that is corrupt and RIGHT CLICK. then click “Show Containing Folder”.

It will take you to where the file is and you just have to “cut” and “paste” it OUT of your mods folder and then delete. NOTE: You can only delete files when Sims 4 is not open.

Hope this helped!

Howdy! Today i bring you a small mesh edit of my blinds that came with my Shaker Kitchen set. I really liked the blinds, but my good friend jorgha pointed out that since they are quite long, they don’t always work for every situation. Luckily, i had planned to make them in different lengths, but the kitchen got out of hand so it got put on the back-burner………… until now. Both roman blinds are available in 2 additional lengths, medium and high. They use the same textures as the other blinds, just the mesh has been shortened. They are separate items in the catalogue too. So if you want more blind choices, fear no more! If you missed the blinds, be sure to check them out in my latest object set here.

The Build/Buy items feature:

basegame compatibility

non-default

4 meshes in total with 32 fabric options:

find items easily using phrase “Shaker Kitchen” in search bar

style (found under “contemporary”) and colour filter compatible

custom thumbnails

Style tool compatible

Pricing  and polycount as follows: - 1 tile Roman Blind - High ($108, 328 polys) - 1 tile Roman Blind - Medium ($109, 360 polys) - 2 tile Roman Blind - High ($118, 328 polys) - 2 tile Roman Blind - Medium ($119, 360 polys)

CC credits:

All custom content, apart from the floor (find here) is all mine, so feel free to browse through my downloads to find it.

Now, there is only one archive with the separate files. There is no merged option because there just aren’t enough files to make that effort Feel free to merge yourself. The archives contains the package files and style image inside a folder. Extract the archive using winRAR or WinZip, place the package file(s) in your mods folder, then look for them in your game. I hope you enjoy.

Curtains are one type of object i find lacking when it comes to TS4. I generally rely on CC or recolours to meet my needs, but when that failed I decided to make my own. This is the end result and I tend to use these everywhere now.
