Sunlit tides with an IP Twist...Testers wanted

cmbaker16

I wasn't sure where to post this so it ended up here lol.

OK so this is far from done but I need some testers and that's where you come in I was recently gifted Sunlit Tides and during the time I've had it I've made some changes to it to include features from IP. Sadly I don't have any pictures but I do have info for you that will be helpful when your play-testing if you choose to do so

1 Ports:
Seaside Port
Hidden Spring Port
Old Fisher's Pier

Known Issues: Hidden Spring Port sims can't move the houseboat from it, needs to be removed.

3 Dive Lots w/cave systems:
Sunny Grotto
Sea Witch
Pirate Cave
Rockey Caverns

Each of them should have a chest and cave you can travel through to another cave. Exception is Sea Witch which has 2 caves and each one leads to different places.

Known Issues: Rockey Caverns is un-accessible needs to be removed

3 Hidden Islands:
Fisher's Village Resort- Unlock by owning a 5-Star Resort
Abandon Isle- Unlock by getting close ex. swimming/boating there
Siren's Call- Unlock by befriending a Mermaid, Should lead you right to it

3 Resorts: (not including Fisher's Village Resort)
Hidden Springs Resort & Casino- An upscale Resort for the Rich
Pirate's Plunder- A fixer upper type resort so it's suppose to look run down looking and empty
Serenity Retreat- I added/moved things around so it could function as a Resort

if this has convinced you Download Here

Thank you in advance to anyone who gives their time to test this .

Oh and I think it be wise to start with a brand new family as there seems to be trouble with unlocking the mermaid island and I think it might have to do with the one mermaid I tried befriending was added to the world after is was made...I think befriending my sim might be the key as she was in the world before it was made. Good Luck and let me no any other Problems you come across

Hi cmbaker16 and thanks for sharing. I have downloaded it and have played a little and so far so good ;D The game is running smooth and considering the amount of stuff i have in the game it is quite surpricing 8D (own every ep,sp and all the store plus a few mods and cc) Am currently cleaning the game up a bit trowing lots of stuff away that are duplicates only a few colour changes (houses so far but will check the com-lots later) so i play when im tired of cleaning so it can take a while before i can give a complete conclusion but i love this world and the changes you have made adding ip-content. Looking forward to more updates

Edit: ops forgot to say i started a new family as you suggested. I put down a 10x10 lot and placed a tiny treehouse that my sim live in with her simbot and a roommate from college that came back with her for some reason when she graduated I have played this fam in another world and just moved them over lol.

cmbaker16

oh I'm glad your trying it out I thought no one would to be honest...Hope the cleaning of the game goes well and can't wait to see how you get along

I'm downloading it now and I'm also going to start testing this world for you as well @cm. Now that I've finished the challenge I can work on something else and this is just the thing to take my mind off of things. Can't wait to start a new family and see where it takes me

Well have been playing this, but have not been able to dive yet (only on level 1). All seems ok but it needs more community lots so have been busy adding some (salon, firestation, shoppingmall etc.) if you have some clever small lots with lots of content crammed together please add I like to keep them small or one huge with all the trimming lol.
Well one npc seems to get stuck but it is only the one so not sure where he/she might be at the time of getting stuck 8D Well no more to tell so will get back to the game Take care ;D

cmbaker16

@djsdragongirl: Glad to hear you'll be playing around in it can't wait to see what you say

@sofie981: ah...I didn't mess with the buildings or the adding of community lots I was just focused on getting the IP features in but that might be my next step once all the IP features have been tested cause I'm worried the islands won't work as they should though I know so far that one works as it should but I don't know about the other two

sofie981

Well i found out where the npc-sim got stuck all the time it was the hotell that have a scene to preform on and the sleep in tower to close to the fence (Hidden springs resort & cassino) but i fixed it and all seams ok. Have dived on all but one dive lots and they sure lack stuff like shells and fish spawners as it gets kinda dull just staring at seaweed and exploring the caves to get better at diving Have not unlocked any islands, and have not met any mermaids yet, but it's early days and much more to do. Thank you so much for making this playing in sunlit tides again as it such a stunning world and so beautiful whatever the weather (have all 4 seasons as i simply love winter-snow and fall with it's stunning colours. Have fun Hugs Aja

cmbaker16

@sofie981: The spawners for the dive lots are in there in might just take time for them to spawn in but their in there.....I'm glad your having fun.....oh and thank you for letting me know where the sims get stuck .

A little update: all is running smooth so far, have not met any mermaids yet but have met a few divers while in the water, and had a fight with a shark Wich ended good and was fun to watch

cmbaker16

@sofie981 oh I'm glad it seems to be working and your having fun with it

cmbaker16

@sofie981: Thank you so much for the World of Wonder Carousel Collection it was quite the surprise to wake up too this morning

sofie981

Glad you liked it I like to give back some of the joy i get from downloads, and i had some simpoints lying around that i didn't need so have fun with your gift and playing the game, and a wonderful yuletime 8D

cmbaker16

@sofie981: Well thank you...I spent all day playing with the new building tools and created my very own Big Top that functions as a showtime venue

This sounds amazing! I will have to try it out

cmbaker16

@frozenorgangejuic O.O...I'm glad to have you checking it out . I hope you enjoy it and the playing is smooth

My sim was on a houseboat at Old Fisher's Pier and I directed him to go to Pleasant View Park. He got off the boat, changed to swimwear, swam around a for a bit, then got back out of the water and got in a taxi.

cmbaker16

@frozenorangejuic oh my...I don't know why that happened but the game is funny sometimes maybe it's just one of those things that happens but I'll take a look and see if it can be fixed .
