Do you expect any conflicts with olomaya's upcoming private clinic pregnancy mod? I love yours and the realism for home births.

Hello. I have been tracking the development of this mod for years, and the new updates are really exciting but I wanted to let you know of some issues.

 

The animations are floating in the air. You state on your Kofi to lay the parent on the right side of the bed, but this ended up bugging them out, the sim would stand still in the middle of the bed instead. All the other animations that come with this mod happen in the air, as if they were supposed to be linked to the bed furniture.

 

I'm thinking you might have better luck linking those animations to the basegame bed instead, that way it can be used seamlessly. Otherwise, players will have to always move a bed underneath the pregnant sim and a chair under the doctor, which is a lot of micromanagement.

 

The second issue is that the scripts seem to override the "Go to Hospital" and "in labour" alarms in the game. The sims do not go to the hospital autonomously anymore, the sim becomes un-selectable. And if I do not have another adult sim available to "Take sim to Hospital" they will be in labour endlessly, standing in place and yelling for...well forever.

 

I see that you have the sims 2 to 3 baby mesh linked under requirements but it should be on the main page as well, so people do not get confused, many do not check that section.

 

Not only that but your update is not very well written: what did you update? what did you add? what is a new feature? It actually reads like you want us to go to your other social media accounts for the full update. But it is included in the download here, so it is confusing. The only way to understand what all is in the mod is through your kofi, and many of those posts are blocked if you don't pay, so we cannot see what all changes you have made over all this time. And what you did add was not even all included in the kofi.

 

It should be streamlined and properly updated here where you uploaded the mod, many people may not download it simply because they do not know what they are getting.

 

You also did not link all of the required objects needed for all the animations to work. I see pool and ball but those objects are not listed under requirements or included in the download.

 

But all of your furniture animation interactions do not work anyway. The sims just constantly bug out on them. I even have to use an interaction under singles to take the sim clothes off, but the interaction itself does not work, it's just that all of your other interactions fail to take the clothes off as intended.

 

In short, in order for me to play with this mod in my game as is, I have to put up with: the animations bugging out on furniture, the working animations being in mid air, I have to use the pregnancy controller mod to pause inactive pregnancies, and then track them using Nraas MC, so they don't infinitely go into labor (the only fix when this happens is to delete them as an object). And then make sure someone is nearby to take them to the hospital, then cancel the interaction on my end, so that pregnant sim can go to the hospital on their own. Even then, I tested on 2 pregnant in labor sims and only 1 was able to deliver successfully at the hospital while the other one got stuck in the hospital RH, I had to end their pregnancy using MC for them to leave.

 

I think the mod has a lot of potential, but I do not think it is fair for you to collect money for so many years when this is the result. I get you are learning but it is not fair to simmers who support you. And really, it seems you have not had a stable 3 months to really sit down and work on the mod in years, and it seems like you only come back to ask for more money to work on this mod, it has lost trust with your core audience as a result.

 

I hope you try to do right by the people who paid for this content, and complete the proper mod, with all of these bugs worked out, this is not a quality a creator should put in early access let alone release for free after it being in early access for several years. You credited several modders for helping you out, maybe you can return to them and ask them to clean up your code a bit.

Hi. I installed the deluxe version of the package, but I can't make it work.
Here's my attempt

[inrush]

it is great but why do i see a "get birth at home" option for those who not going to birth and not even pregnant in a pie menu?

I think NPCs must to decide this by their own also...

And, probably a pause mod conflicts with this one, i need to check it additionally...

the above was not confirmed

Hi, 

I do not expect there to be any conflicts. As a matter of fact I am collaborating with Olomaya so you may see some of my animations merged into her MOD!!

Thank you for the feed back. It appears you may have downloaded 1 of the test mods. Go to the default replacement on my page here on LoversLab and download the default. I am polishing up the default replacement. Please us it until I have completed the updates/corrections.

I agree 100%

Is there a way to get the interactions shown in the pictures - like the father assisting the mother? The birth part on the floor works just fine, but all the mother does is stand and hold her stomach and the father just freaks out. No interactions available other than "take to hospital."

Thank you!
