Several of the old sim uploads are still available, should probably be able to find whatever you're looking for there, if you kind of remember what it was I might also be able to find it for you.

They might be yeah. Simkuza is currently one of my intended projects, and I'll have something related to that up in not too long a time, though there's a bunch I have to figure out and decide on to do the whole gang. 

 

Butler NPC will probably come at some point, I just haven't been very interested in doing it. I was not aware there were life guard and camp instructor (which camp?) NPCs, and the last one is a total mystery to me. 

 

This Lady comes with Outdoor Retreat & Life Guard in the beach Comes with Island Living they patrol in the beach.

Not yet, all of them are pretty much just sketches at this point. 

 

Anyway just figured I'd say that I'm probably going to hold off on uploading anything new until after the new skintone update, gonna have to see what kind of damage that one ends up doing I think.

lets tbh whatever they do The sims 4 without your sims , useless..

[thelord007]

Okay I am kind of new to sims 4 modding, which files do I download?

[Loveternity]

@thelord007 Depends on which Sim you want and how much you want them to match the pictures. Read the description, there's a lot of info there. Since you mentioned you're new to modding, watch out for mod conflicts: if for example you're using a different default female skin, don't use wild_guy's, only pick one.

@mrrakkonn I've been meaning to ask this but I keep forgetting, in my game when one of your Sims ages up their height (foot slider) gets reset. I imagine that's because you adjust that after you've finished creating the Sim. Is there an easy way to prevent this from happening? It's no big deal readjusting it, it's just a little inconvenient when I have many of your Sims in my world.

That's because MCCC let's you adjust values by typing them in, giving you exact precision. However, it does not alter the sim's genetics. Meaning, if their genetics (preset) includes large feet (the height slider goes by foot size), even though MCCC imposes a small foot size, when the sim ages up or down, it resets to their genetic preset, giving them large feet again (making them tall). The way to prevent this is to go into CAS, and manually change the foot size slider. This WILL change genetics. Obviously, you'd move it to the exact same spot, and you'd have to this for each sim.

 

I suppose, for future sims, maybe @mrrakkonn can adjust the foot slider in CAS, after setting it to the correct size? Height precision would then depend on how close he moves it back to the right spot.

 

EDIT: using MCCC you could make a template for smaller teens, that would retain their genetics. They can all have smaller ("less developed" bodies) as teens. When they age up to YA, they get their "normal" genetic bodies. Here's a comparative pic (note: the template used for teens had not been refined to look it's best. It's just an example to show potential.);

I hadn't considered the age up and foot slider thing to be honest, even if I was aware of it happening, I mostly play without aging when I actually play, so it's never something I've had to deal much with so it didn't really enter my mind. I guess I could try to set the heights in CAS for my sim uploads going forwards if people want that, I'll probably miss a bit, but with reference I should probably get close enough that it won't really matter.

Thank you, don't worry about it if it becomes too tedious to do for every Sim, it's really such a minor inconvenience, I was just wondering.

Speaking of feet weirdness, I recently downloaded Callie Lawson and found out that her swimwear includes random basegame shoes whenever I add her, that's so strange. Her archive was also missing [erplederp] Kliekie Lovely Lingerie - Bra (Fix).package, but I found that from one of your other Sims.

I probably uploaded the wrong one to the archive, for some reason I've still got the old not-fixed ones around as well. The feet might be because alot of default feet replacements are kind of messed up with the newest update due to the remove shoes indoors thing, might be that she got asssigned some weird value of that for her swimwear.

I've noticed some of my sims (seems to mostly be older ones, but it's kind of random) sometimes don't use the defaults I use when barefoot for some of their outfits, giving them shoes and then removing those seems like it works. But I dunno, right now I think part of the blame might just be that default replacements are mildly broken in some circumstances. 

 

 

Not related to that, I was playing around with some dance animations I found at https://www.patreon.com/syncdanimations and recorded some quick videos of the teen versions of Alexis and Thalia playing around in Thalia's bedroom.

These look really cool. I'd love to see them with breast & butt physics added (like with RTBP or something).

I'm well aware of it, and I don't even consider doing it 99% of the time.

Even though I'm probably going to have fix this in a couple of days when the new skintone and makeup update drops, I'm going to go back on what I said here because I've got a pretty big upload I'm working on uploading now. 

 

It's a pretty thorough update and partial remake of Tracy Muller, it's been a long while since I updated her and I've made changes to her both gradually and some more thorough ones recently. Including some face and body edits as well as changing some skin details and her skintone. Perhaps most notably I edited her eyes slightly and applied an "asian eyelid" skin detail I stumbled across in a sim I downloaded, her part Asian ancestry is should now be a bit more apparent than it was before. 

 

   

 

But in addition to that the bigger part of this is that I've now spent a good amount of time putting together her immediate and extended family. This includes her parents, dad working in the Strangerville miltiary career and mother who still lives in Mt. Komorebi with her new husband and family, which includes one of the schoolgirls asked about above. 

 

    

 

 

But perhaps most significantly this will be the first step I take in my stated goal to make sims for the Simkuza gang in Basemental Gangs, because Tracy's mother's brother (her uncle) holds a high position in the Simkuza and is going to be characterized as the right-hand man of the gang, heading up the American/Sims Nation side of business. At the moment I still have some work to do with fleshing out him and the Simkuza itself, but I expect to get more done there eventually when I make a couple more gang members. 

 

 

This big update will also be the first time I equip some of my uploaded sims with the lifestyles that came with the Snowy Escape expansion pack, which I will continue doing going forwards where it makes sense. An optional thing I'm mostly doing for myself is incoroporating the Language Barriers, and the sims in this pack have assigned primary languages and second language skills as I thought appropriate. Using this mod is completely optional and not having it should cause no issues. 

 

So yeah, lots of stuff, and probably something I'll have to reupload in a week or or two, once the dust from the coming update clears. I'll be updating the old post for Tracy with new pictures, CC credits, character notes and biographical information when I finish putting together the upload. 

 

(I might need to put some pictures in this spoiler as I might go over the upload limit for the original description post)

I'm struggling to find words of gratitude and amazement for this last update, @mrrakkonn. Seriously this is incredible, thank you so much. I'm also a big fan of things like Language Barriers, really happy to see that!

I love it. Watching it again, it looks like a youtube video some dumb teenagers uploaded.

I recently incorporated that mod in my own modlist, so nice knowing future sims will come pre-set for it.

 

I've been thinking about Cara and Linney though for when I get back to them though... would they be native san salvadorean speakers or just highly proficent in your view?

I've set them (and some others) up already on my end, I figured they'd grown up basically speaking both Simlish and Selvadoradian (hate trying to spell that), so I actually just gave them both as native languages, for their parents, Leon has Simlish as native with decent Selvadoradian second language skill, and Miranda has Selvadoradian as her native language with Simlish second langauge skill (a bit better than Leon's Selvadoradian).

I just downloaded Audrey Reynolds and she hasn't the cleavage "shadow" like in the photo, is there a mod missing?

Get the "Shared CC" archive, I originally set it up to have things like replacements and frequently used skin details and such in a separate archive (to cut down on the filesize of the sim archives). It's a bit outdated by now, but the cleavage overlays I use are still in it, so I'm guessing you haven't downloaded that archive.
