sims 4 mrrakkon's World Redux!

[TriggerBlade]

Hey for those that didn't notice. I added a new list on the original page called "Fluff Mods". These are mods that I've used in the past or have a good reputation that I've listed as I think they will better your experience with the save.

They're either quality of life mods or mods that enhance the game itself. Such as being able to have Tony play his own music at DJ booths or to let you have a more fleshed out experience with Selda's game streaming career.

Just for full understanding, I do not have these mods in my folder. The only mods I have are ones I use to make the save.

In regards to function, they serve the same purpose as Suggested Mods. Though the difference is that I'm not actively using them.

I put them under a spoiler, as well as the career mods, to reduce scrolling.

@TriggerBlade Amazing, thanks! I'll add all of these ❤️

@Chipendale Thanks for recommendations too, I tried Carl's gameplay mod, but it made things a bit difficult with the reduced income setttings

Thanks for your effort keeping that alive!

I do have some bug reporting for you guys:

 

 

-> Windows not correct!

-> Bed CC are missing!

 

Also the Autoshop Career is broken: https://midnitetech.tumblr.com/post/184690867427/auto-shop-career-hi-all-heres-a-career-based

better use the new free midni career pack as an update for all used careers: https://www.patreon.com/posts/simdeed-services-63452495

 

I think I know what's the issue with the windows. A while back CC windows and doors were broken by a patch, evidenced by there being a S4S batch fix for "Fix windows and doors". What I'm guessing is that Triggerblade got the CC (it's only after he incorporated most of that that we started trying to be more deliberate about things, and as you see on the last page, there are still mistakes made) for this lot from the old world where that fix has not been applied since it was before that glitch was introduced, hence why they are not fixed. 
Replace it with the package I've pasted here (which should be fixed, because they look fine in my game) or just run the batch fix in S4S on your build CC and it should fix any broken windows and doors you have. 

 

PC-TS4-VaultedRanch-Merged.package

Spoiler

 

As for the beds, I'm not sure there are supposed to be any, at least there aren't on my end either. This is orginally a lot I downloaded and edited and placed in the world for that purpose. 

 

Also thanks for the hint on careers, that's probably a thing to do yeah!

As someone who hasn't used S4S a lot except for some minor things, I wasn't aware of the batch fix. So I got excited and wanted to try to fix some doors that has been broken since 2020. Re-downloaded the files and S4S can't even see them. I went in to the game just to see if they even show up anymore and... now they're working just fine. Don't know what the hell is going on, but I'm happy.

Thanks @mrrakkonn for letting me know the batch thing is a thing. I'll keep that in mind, for sure.

There definitely should be beds, since all the details like hidden knifes under the bed and stuff are still there. You also can clearly see the position where the bed should be. May there is another “wrecked” bed you can place in the rooms.

I've tried several different custom saves but Mrrakkon's World is the only one I use now. It's my favorite and so much fun. This was driving me crazy!  Even with all packs and CC and retrying the original save several times the game kept telling me I had over 500 items missing no matter what I did . I finally gave up and went in  spent a lot of time editing the lot so that it worked for me.  I knew there had to be a solution.  So thank you so much!

If you disagree with any of my decisions for non-mrrakkon sims please let me know what you believe would fit better.

 

The CC in the update folder has been merged into the primary folder and CC for new content is now in the update folder.

Yes I noticed there are doubles of each folder. Google Drive chose not to merge folders that shared the same spelling and case. I'm working on it.

[GhostJ27F]

Sweet!

 

So since I already have all the cc do I just DL what's in the update folder?

If you've downloaded the update folder before I posted my changelog, then yes.

All of the content that was in the update folder before is now in the main folder.

[Parasoralofus]

Sims 4 doesn't seem to be recognizing the save. I'm not sure if anyone else has the issue or just me.

 

Edit: Copied Save to Desktop, Renamed it to a different version number and now it shows.

Edited May 11, 2022 by adellanuki

[GhostJ27F]

I don't mind the non-MrRakkon sims in the game, but if I can make a suggestion to just have his sims as favorite household would be nice as well as only the sims he created to be un-hidden.  that's just my personal preference of course.  

 

Other than that this save is fn awesome appreciate all the hard work you putting into it.

[kreamypie]

Hey, as I was looking into the custom traits folder, is there a reason why the scripts like NewHobbyTraits.ts4script has a .zip next to it? Is it okay if I can change it to .ts4script rather than .ts4script.zip or no? Thank you in advance!

[Blackdas77]

What is The relation of Goth Family with Spell caster & Vampire ? Who are those Big Photo Frame hanging in There House ? Looks Like Vampire . 

[TriggerBlade]

The next update will likely be 3.0* and while I wait for mrrakkon to send me sims I often experiment with my own stuff but I thought I'd let y'all decide what I focus on.

Edit: *2.2 to 2.9 will be incremental updates of Urbz content and bug fixes with 3.0 signaling that content being temporarily closed as we move onto other things for the save.

Anyone looking at Magnolia Promenade will see that I put real life businesses there just for fun. Is this something you'd like to see more of? Despite some easter egg characters(which to be fair 90% are from me) and some other sims being inspired by video game characters mrrakkon likes to lean towards realism.

 

mrrakkon has given me a strict rule of no sims of actual people(I've gotten away with the occasional parody) this is why Cozmo Street and the Black Eyed Peas are not going to be in the final Urbz update. I chose Joe Vega to fill in as Jayde's city confidant instead of Will.i.Am.

 

So the TL;DR is would you all like real life businesses to add to mrrakkon's more realistic tone or maybe something like recreations of lots from Sims 1, 2, and 3? Or a mix of both? Please let me know.

I just went through the google drive and the zip thing must be with how your system is configured. I can't really help with that.

Though there were several duplicates. Which I removed. I think google drive has issues in overwriting files. It overwrites folders when I upload to the drive but not when I move them within the drive.

mrrakkon made portraits using those paintings as a base and edited his screenshots into them as that's easier than actually painting it. If the portraits are showing vanilla spell casters and vampires then you didn't download the proper CC.

 

Though to answer a lore question. The Goth family has always had connection to the occult in and out of universe. They were used in promotional material for Making Magic in Sims 1, Bella is a witch in Sims 2, and Mortimer's mother is showcased in a magical pack on the store in Sims 3. There's explicit mention of both Mortimer and Bella's parents being into the occult throughout the games.

Rather than making them spellcasters, I gave them bloodline traits as to not cause compatibility issues with those who do not own Realm of Magic. Such as mrrakkon himself.

I've been spending the past few days thinking of how to address this. From now on I'll keep mrrakkon's sims that are not explicitly meant to be NPCs unhidden. So you all can easily just move them into houses to play if you want. 

 

As for favorite households the only non-mrrakkon sims that are there is the scooby doo parody and I have those showcased simply because we haven't actually done anything with Strangerville other than me making edits to households Maxis themselves posted on the gallery as a way to avoid ugly randomized sims.

Edit: Loading up the save to work on it more I did notice I put my attempts at Vampire stuff in the favorite tab. If it's distracting I can remove them I guess?

Ohhh, that is weird O.o It's fine though. I fixed it by simply getting rid of the .zip at the end for the file. Thank you so much!

@donjonlong8 
Quoting from your review.
"When will/are Tracey, Alexis and Taliah being added?"

 

We're waiting for AEP to be updated or for an alternative to present itself. Turbodriver is possibly doing something as a feature for Wicked Whims so we're keeping an eye on that.

 

AEP won't hurt your game but some of its features are non-functional. Like the filming career activity and some people mentioned the photography modeling is bugged. The rabbit hole and live cam streaming work just fine though.

 

Cara is mostly in the game, but left unplayable, because her family has ties to a lot of things completely unrelated such as Jungle Adventure natives and it would have been weird to keep that spot on the family tree empty. 

 

There's a lot of things left to do in other parts such as finishing off the Foxbury students and adding playable Ubrite Students, as well as fleshing out Basemental Gangs, working on Willow Creek to make it something other than just a dumping ground for Jason and Samantha's family. The list can go on as to my knowledge we're going to add just about every Sim mrrakkon has posted as well as some that have been in his wip bin.

 

The porn characters could be thrown in at any time and both mrrakkon and I highly suggest you download them from his page if you want them THAT badly but for the save officially, we want to wait until its most fitting both narratively AND functionally. So don't expect it for sometime.

Tracy may be added prior under similar context to Cara as both her father and childhood friends are residents of Strangerville and her uncle is a member of the Simkuza.

It's always nice to see more ancestry added, but Milton and Enriqueta are Bella and Michael's paternal grandparents while Simis and Jocasta are their parents.

 

Mr. Rieper's cameo was ruined while I was sorting CC. I mean 

Spoiler

Agent47_Redtie_Jacket

should only be used by one character.

@TriggerBlade thanks for the response, I will be adding the three girls myself in this new update.

 

I have an issue with some of the sims clipping/stretching through the floor, mostly chloe piatek, sydney coloma and grace rogers, i don't suppose you know which cc they share that causes this, I cant remove it in cas as im unable to see them.

 

thanks

Derp. It'll be fixed in the next update. They're there for flavor so not something to be too concerned with.

Also I think I'll rename that package to make it less easy to notice this way.

Nobody click on the spoiler. It was a really fun easter egg/cameo to make XD

Clipping through the floor? Can you provide a screenshot? I've never heard of this bug.

Finally fixed the duplicated folders. Either everything is fine or mrrakkon and I are going to need to go through and fix 11+GB of CC... Now you know why we didn't upload directly to LL XD
