About This File
Sims 4 Bear Pride Stuff Pack
Â
Â
The most comprehensive collection of Bear Pride content for The Sims 4.
Â
INSTALLATION
Extract files and place in your "Mods" directory
You'll find the merged file on LoversLab but individual packs are now only on MediaFire to make it easier on everyone
You can find the content by searching 'bear' or by noting which objects have the Bear Pride paw thumbnail
Enable custom content in The Gallery to be able to see the shop as a placeable lot in the game
MediaFire link: Individual packs --- Combined --- Lots --- Bear Pride Addons --- Standalone

P.A.Q. (Possibly Asked Questions)
Are there any bugs?
There shouldn't be any since there are mostly recolors, but sometimes errors do happen
Maxis sometimes places the textures in weird ways, so I've done my best to fix their UVs. No problems so far
The kotatsu table uses a different texture when Sims sit at it, so my recolor actually disappears for that
I've added two "walk-in" showers that are meant to be base game. Sometimes they're very glitchy and might vanish right after you place them. Just undo and place them until they don't vanish.
I have X, is it compatible with this mod?
Technically, any mod should be compatible with Bear Pride Stuff, so long as the meshes aren't changed.
There are mods that complement this mod to complete the 'Bear' appearance of your sims
I recommend using Lumia's Body Hair V5/5+ or Simdulgence's body hair, SimpleGens penis, and SimpleChests.
How big is this mod really?
Gigantic. The largest file is about 1.1GB and that includes all the content in the mod. Only use this if you have all the DLCs
The packs vary in size and install only if you want a certain pack or if you don't own all the DLCs listed
The 'Grrr! Bear Shop' uses items from the base game and Get to Work so do not install if you don't have that DLC (not updated since v2.6)
I don't have a high-end nor low-end computer and my game runs fine, so you should be fine
Why are updates available on Lover's Lab and MediaFire?
This is done to avoid large file sizes on this site and also to make it easier for people to update individual packs. It's easier to update for 1 pack than to download an 0.8GB zip file for only 1 pack they'll use.

Released
v4.0 The Final Update
Â
This is my final update for Bear Pride Stuff and all other Bear-themed content by me. This past year has changed a lot of my life and I'm in a much better position than I was before. Unfortunately, the trade-off is that I won't be able to continue working on this mod in the foreseeable future. I may return, some day, but for now, this is my final gift to all of you who have supported me and check out my work. I never imagine or planned to make this much content for what was at first a very simple, hastily made mod. But now it's been two and a half years and it's enormous. Anyway, for the content I added some minor changes here and there. Since I will not be able to work on the add-ons, I incorporated parts of them in some way here. I finished the posters for the final time and this time I think they're the best they'll ever be. I hope you all enjoy and once again Thank You.
