Has anyone created a mod yet that expands the number of icons for creating a holiday or increases the amount of traditions each holiday holds?

If not..... Could someone make it pretty please!

    Not yet, but I imagine either Zerbu or some other modder has it on their bucket list when or if they come to the realization that there's not many options to choose from.

    I'm anticipating this mod as well, I wanted more selections!
    If push comes to shove, I'll make the mod myself.

    The icons suck :( I wanted to do a summer solstice holiday but theres no suitable icons. I also really want more than 5 traditions!

    Take a look at Sacrificial mods! He does an extreme violence mod that would work!

    It would be nice if Easter had more than one icon in the game (you forgot the bunny and eggs).

    An American Flag might be suited for a mod since that would require other country flags to be added as well. Wait, when did Labor Day become a patriot holiday?
  • marcelmagiera12marcelmagiera12 Posts: 8 New Member
    @FreakAboutSims Maybe a white flag with the sims logo to represent patriotism?
  • FreakAboutSimsFreakAboutSims Posts: 795 Member
    That's a decent idea. Maybe make the flags the varieties already available from the in-game flag pole.

    LittleMsSam has added a school holiday tradition.
    Just add this Tradition to a Holiday and your Kids will get a free Day. You don’t need to add any extra Traditions. The Day off will fulfill the Tradition immediately.

    DON’T check the Day off Option on top of the Holiday Setting Window or else Adults will get a free Day too!

    There's also a new no work tradition. While you can set a holiday for no work, this one is more customizable.
    Just add this Tradition to a Holiday and your Sims will get a free Day. You don’t need to add any extra Traditions. The Day off will fulfill the Tradition immediately.

    There are three Traditions:

    No Work!
    No Work! (Women only)
    No Work! (Men only)

    DON’T check the Day off Option on top of the Holiday Setting Window or else Children & Teens will get a free Day too!

    LittleMsSam is one of my favorite modders. So many design decisions that should have been done better to improve the game from the start. The Sims team should just hire her already.

    And here's one from MTS that makes the hidden holiday traditions (such as season premiere and talk like a pirate) unhidden. http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=615880

    Hi All,

    Any more new tradition mods? I'm disappointed at the lack of them appearing, I thought everyone would have been eager to create mods for more traditions! :'(

    There's a lot of different religious icons for holidays here: http://modthesims.info/download.php?t=616166

    I believe there is already a bunny and eggs icon for Easter in the game.
    Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, and Veterans Day are considered national or federal holidays, therefore, the American Flag icon is appropriate.
    If you're not satisfied with the American Flag icon for Labor Day, then I would suggest a hammer icon.
    A yellow ribbon icon for Memorial Day and Veterans Day could be used as an alternative.

    As for the lack of art available for the holiday icons, since I do digital art I'd be happy to make some new icons if people wanted them, but unfortunately I'd have no idea how to mod them into the game :(
