I've been playing the Sims a lot in my semi-hiatus from this simblr, but the save I'm showcasing is new to me and really simple (and honestly taking over my life rn). Kind of a housewife Nara Smith simulator? Thought I'd see how far I could go before I got bored lol.
June Jonquil is a newly-minted midwife whose roster is starting to stage a mutiny 👀 her ultimate goal is to be the perfect wife and mother, but life never truly goes as planned...
I'm tired of manually moving things back and forth to switch between a normal modern save and my medieval save, so I made a Profile Mod Manager for TS4!
You can now keep all your mods in a single folder, and make profiles that call which mods to use via symlinks!
And you can also have multiple config files for different mods (if the mods by default create their own config files).
Sadly this does require you to have some prior knowledge on how to instal Python and run apps via Terminal (I will not be teaching you) and I have not tested this in Linux/MAC; technically it should work with some minimal changes but I am not sure.
Code and documentation can be found on my Github: https://github.com/westrany/Sims-4-Mod-Profile-Manager
beyond bloom save file ♡ | all worlds done, new townies, stories, lots & more | updates & changes
first, i want to extend a huge thank you to all the talented sims builders who allowed me to use their already built lots. thanks to their contributions, i was able to rebuild every single world, including the vacation worlds and the latest addition, ciudad enamorada, from the lovestruck expansion pack. this world is probably the biggest update in this version of the save file. ♡
all the builders are listed in description box of the video!
about the save file:
♡ this save file is not pack restricted, there are many packs used in the creation of this save file, so keep that in mind!
♡ i created so many new stories for the new but also old townies/families & i gave them new careers, skills & such.
♡ there are also new holidays which you can enjoy and celebrate with your sims, but also new clubs where your sims can gather and hang out!
changes & updates:
♡ holidays & club are remade, so no mods are needed to play with this save file.
♡ completely new neighbourhood in willow creek.
♡ new families, stories & relationships.
♡ new lots all over the worlds, ready for you to explore.
♡ completely redone ciudad enamorada - new families & townies, existing townies stories changed, new lots & more.
strangerville mystery solved
♡ this save file is based on the 2.0 version, where the strangerville mystery is solved, and the town is back to normal. i thought this was the best approach, but if you want to redo the whole strangerville story, you can always awaken the mother plant.
Over the last year I have been working on custom basegame styled looks based on this tutorial provided by @mizoreyukii. As the BG looks are now finished for all age groups, I made an index to link all of my posts in one place.
All styled looks apply without overriding the make-up (or lack of) on your sims. This is by design, since I have been always bothered by how EAs looks apply the most unsuitable make-up on sims.
In the above posts you will find additional information, an overview of all looks included and individual download links. You can, however, also download the respective files from my SFS folder.
I also recommend to use the Hider Mod for EAs Styled Looks by MizoreYukii, if you're not interested in EAs Styled looks. Otherwise, the custom looks will be at the end of a very long list of EAs styled looks.
This save is still very much a work in progress. While most things appear to be complete (such as builds), there's still a lot to be done. So, keep that in mind. Also, I tried my best to playtest everything, but this is a HUGE save. So, it's possible I missed things. If I did, feel free to let me know!
TOU:
Please don't claim as your own. Don't reupload my builds as your own. Basically, don't be weird. Just give credit please as this took centuries to do lol.
Special Thanks!
EDIT: Ahhh! Big thank you to @lasabarcassims for helping me set up SimFileShare! Please check out their save as well. It’s amaaaazing.
Shout out to @aaliyahnavI @doit4thesims @forever-lbsims @senselesssims for playtesting this monstrosity. I greatly appreciate you all!
Thanks to @simmerapple (gallery: ImpossibleBelle) and @simkuza (Gallery: Mimilagu) for checking out the save and sending some of their amazing sims to use!
Lastly, I want to thank everyone for their continued support and encouragement! When I started this thing, I was just bored and looking for a way to improve my game. I honestly did not expect to finish it, nor did I expect so many of you to care lol. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It's still very rough around the edges, but I hope it brings you some enjoyment!
Also, don't hesitate to tag me in any posts! I want to see my precious Doo Doo brought to life!
16 worlds redone (Mt. Komorebi, Sulani, Selvadorada, and Tomarang still need some TLC)
Some updated townies with lore, relationships, jobs, etc. etc.
New townies!
New clubs and holidays
LOTS of packs used, so not BG friendly
For Version 2, I hope to finish this save completely. When will that be? That's a good question lol
What's not included:
All the packs - I don't own (and probably never will lol) HSY, Werewolves, Lovestruck, and MWS. Also missing most of the kits.
Specialty lots (i.e. police station, magic realm) won't be touched until Ver. 2
CC, Mods, and Tips
If you want the townies’ relationships to stay intact, I HIGHLY recommend downloading MCCC. If not, you shouldn’t have any issues playing the save, but some relationships will eventually be deleted due to the culling system. Instructions here!
I did use one piece of CC, but it is absolutely not required in order to download this save. It's the Modern Family Portrait by RAVASHEEN! Download only if you want some cute portraits of the families.
For this save, I grouped some of the worlds together. You don't have to play this way, it's just a note to consider:
Oasis Springs, Del Sol Valley, and StrangerVille
Newcrest, Willow Creek, and Magnolia Promenade
Windenburg, Forgotten Hallow, Glimmerbrook, and Henford
San Myshuno, Brindleton Bay
San Sequoia and Evergreen Harbor
The other worlds? They're just on their own for now.
I'm back with a new street style collection, and this time it's masculine! This 22 item capsule collection includes a variety of items for your hottest male sims. The styles are clean, simple, and très cool.
Guys I've updated loading screen map mod for Gibbi Point and according to the survey results I placed it nearby Sulani.
Also made the 2nd version where it is nearby Copperdale and Granite Falls, especially if using this replacement mod while playing.
V2 - Gibby Point near Copperdale and Granite Falls
V3 - Britchester and Foxbury are located now nearby San Myshuno
So, a bit of explanation why there are so many versions of them.
As I'm working now on the project "rebuild every world" for my no cc save file, I was in need of a map where I can see all the worlds and their locations. Cause the main idea of my save is the ability to travel as we do it in reality.
At first, I placed Britchester nearby Henford on Bagley cause of their similarity in architecture style and Foxbury nearby San Myshuno cause of the city view background which u can see while playing in Foxbury. Also, for my gameplay, it was more relevant to have two uni in different ends of the map. But there were a bunch of unhappy people about this placement, so I've done v3.
Secondly, as for Gibby Point, I made a voting poll where most amount of people choose to place it as separate island. But for me and my gameplay, I see it as a part of Granite Falls and Copperdale. That's why v2 appears.
So, to sum it up, I hope everyone will find a version that likes the most.
if you ise mc_dresser config to make sure your random townies are being generated dressed reasonably, it WILL mess with your imaginary friends
because they are generated the moment you turn a doll into a child, they'll also generate wearing something from the config instead of their imaginary friend outfits

It's here. My second released Reshade/Gshade preset for The Sims 4. Like my previous one, Yuhum, this preset is meant to enhance whatever the light is doing in your game. With certain hotkeys, you can make customizable changes to your screenshots. Brighten or sharpen, add grain and chromatic aberration, or create some fun lens flares. It can be as simple or as personalized as you want it to be.
before/after shots, list of shaders, my tips and tricks, and download link below the cut.
Click for bigger! Here's a couple before/after shots to show you the subtle changes. Overall the pictures with the preset have a softer look while still remaining quite sharp. The F1 hotkey is a quick adjustment in brightness because sometimes a scene calls for light and bright, and other times you just want to retain the exposure. F1 basically just toggles on/off the pd80 Contrast Brightness Saturation shader.
Want more lens flares? Just go on the HexLensFlare shader and increase the intensity (for brighter flares) and decrease the threshold (for flares coming out more frequently). You can also change the size and the colours of the flares to your liking. Too extra? Just do the opposite or toggle off the shader (Shift + B).
It was important to see how Tawhay looked on different skintones in outdoor and indoor lighting. Keeping the undertone true to sims' skintones was crucial, so I opened up my old high school years save file and got the gang to model for me.
Tawhay uses 2 different kinds of depth of field (DoF) shaders to give you the flexibility of having a mouse-driven DoF or something automatic. For most gameplay shots, I stick with ADoF because it does the job of putting the foreground in focus; but if I want more precise point in focus, I go with CinematicDoF.
These are the list of shaders used. They all come recommended when you install Reshade. If there's anything missing in your shaders folder, you can go to the repository and simply install them.
You can also see the hotkeys I've set up, but feel free to change them to whatever suits you.
All the shaders are turned on by default. It is usable this way, but I recommend playing around with toggling on/off different shaders, particularly ones with a corresponding hotkey. That way you can figure out what works best for your screenshots. Personally, I toggle off G (FilmGrain and CAb) because I like to add that stuff in post. I also have F1 toggled off for most shots unless I want something to look darker.
In the screenshots used above, I'm using the following lighting mods:
sunblind by softerhaze
better in-game lighting mod v1.1 dark saturated dark rooms by northernsiberiawinds
I've also tested this preset in a vanilla save without any lighting mods. You can see those screenshots here.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask in my inbox.
Disclaimer: This preset was made and tested on Reshade 5.9.2 but it should work on other versions of Reshade or GShade as long as you have the necessary shaders.
TOU: Please do not put this behind a paywall or claim as your own. Once it's in your game, feel free to change whatever you want to fit your tastes.
🌿 We made a Sims 4 Character Sheet, and I think you’ll love it! 🌿
Have you ever had a whole dramatic story in your head about your Sim, but no idea where to write it down? Or maybe you wanted to share your character’s backstory but didn’t know how to format it nicely? I’ve been there so many times! That’s why my designer and I created the perfect character sheet for Sims! 🎨✨
📌 What makes it awesome?
— Stylish, clean design that feels modern but still captures the Sims vibe.
— Icons straight from The Sims 4! I personally extracted, sorted, and renamed them so you can easily find what you need.
— All the important details in one place: traits, aspiration, career, even their home — everything that makes a Sim unique!
— Super easy to use. I used to jot things down in notes or save random screenshots, but now I have (and you do too!) a beautiful, organized sheet.
— It’s completely free! Because I believe in sharing cool things with the Sims community.
📥 How to get it?
🔹 Use the template in Figma: LINK
🔹 Download the Sims icons (for extra customization!): LINK
💡 How to use it?
I’ve already filled out several sheets for my Sims, and it turned out to be incredibly useful! Now it’s so much easier to track dynasty stories, fill out challenge cards, or simply save the biographies of my favorite Sims so they don’t get lost. Give it a try — I’m sure you’ll love it!
If you fill one out and want to share, tag us! I’d love to see your Sims ❤️
Am I getting this right? Someone hacked my simfileshare account? For real? Do you have nothing else to do? If you're this good at hacking then just hack idk Elon Musk's twitter. At least honor your talents by doing something more useful.
I’m sure at least some of you are wondering what I’ve been up to since I had to abandon updates to Career World. Well, as a matter of fact, even before the For Rent corruption bug caused all that to go pear-shaped, I was already working on my next giant save file project: a save file meant to maximize immersion in The Sims 4 by pairing lots that blend seamlessly into their surroundings with gameplay setups that lean into world identities and pack features already established by the Sims team.
I’m really excited about this project and I think it’s great, but there are two problems with it: A) I can’t work on it fast enough to keep pace with all the new content releases, so I fear it will never be done, and B) if it winds up being as big as Career World (which was the intention—I had planned on this being another “all worlds” save file), it is likely to run up against the same save-file-destroying bug. So, despite how awesome the unifying concept was, I’ve decided I’m better off releasing it as a series of several different save files, some single worlds and others world clusters, depending on what best suits the gameplay angle I’m going for. The first of these was the Dream Town Makeover save file, which features seamless Maxis-match lots and maximizes the potential of the pack content from Eco Lifestyle and Dream Home Decorator by pairing them together. If you haven’t played it yet, I strongly suggest you check it out—it will give you a feel for the concept I’m working with for this save file series.
In light of the recent release of the Businesses and Hobbies expansion pack, which allows you to hold live classes for any skill, I think the concept I’m going to focus on next will revolve around education. I’ve already made substantial headway on immersive versions of Copperdale and Britechester, the two education-focused worlds, and I expect I can have them finished with the new content integrated in about 3 to 4 months. But of course, I also have ideas for building playable elementary and preschools using Businesses and Hobbies, plus extension schools, specialty schools (Windenburg Butlering Academy, anyone?), etc., not to mention my penchant for creating study abroad programs—so in the end, I expect this to wind up as a very large world cluster. I think what I’ll do is release this one in stages: the core worlds of Copperdale and Britechester first for version 1.0, and then a new version every time I complete another world that I want to tack onto it.
And of course, if I ever finish this immersive save file series and have every world done, I will at least try to smoosh them all together into the one giant save file I had originally envisioned, because I’m me. Perhaps the corruption bug will even be fixed by then, who knows?
So keep an eye out for something new in about 3 or 4 months, and until then, happy simming!
This is a simple tuning mod that changes the rather lacklustre corporate partnership options in Get Famous (seriously, who wants to do an ad for a fishing association?) and increases the amount of money you get from successfully completing a partnership deal.
All of the partnerships are now beauty and cosmetics related and will be successfully completed by filming and uploading a video via the Video Station. You'll get anywhere between 15 000 and 35 000 simoleons with an added bonus of 5000 simoleons if the uploaded video is a "Beauty Review."
Disclaimer: This is my first public mod. It's basically just a very quick tuning mod I whipped up for my own gameplay purposes. It requires Get Famous and will conflict with any other mods that touch the corporate partnership tuning. Please let me know if you find any bugs or errors.
