It's fun for me to see what others do in their games. I feel that is similar to reading a book or watching a TV show. It's just a different style of fictional characters. It can also be fun to connect with other followers of the same content too... much like fans of TV series and books do... and share thoughts and ideas on…
The Patreon member version is just an earlier version of what is released to the public. When the public version gets an update, that is what the Patreon version was... and then the Patreon version gets updated with new features. There are times some mods probably push the "reasonable" timing of releasing to the public…
Not sure if this was mentioned yet, but CharityCodes has created a replacement for the outdated Playable Pets mod. This is not an update but more a mod of note. https://modthesims.info/d/678890/selectable-pets-always.html From the mod description...
While working through my mods, I noticed updates from alisrabbo... * 6 Credits Per Term - 19/07/2023 * HS Expulsion Changes - 19/07/2023 * Restrict Club By University - 20/07/2023 * WoohHoo Partnership Tweaks - 19/07/2023 https://www.patreon.com/posts/mod-tracker-77579825
Make sure you click the save button at the bottom after you remove swatches from each file. I say this because I went through about 50 files before I realized I had to do this, so I want to spare others from the realization you wasted time. :#
I would intentionally delete my entire mods folder every 3 to 6 months. The plan was to only download what I really, truly wanted to keep in my game. Then the mod folder slowly creeps up in size, because I have a daily CC shopping addiction. :D A week or so ago, my folder was over 98GB. Rather than deleting the whole thing…
Only once... the first sims day into a rags to riches storyline. It's so unfortunate how that lottery win turned out to be a scam and all the money was lost again. Tragic. ;)
^ If that doesn't work, a good old -fashioned repair game can go a long way in fixing problems with game textures going wonky. I had a similar issue after uninstalling a mod that changed the texture of snowflakes.
I hope it works! I have to say that I've noticed a strange uptick in broken appliances since Growing Together came out. I have a handy sim who even upgraded all the appliances and plumbing and they are all still breaking every few sim days.
My current family has five daughters and a cat named Tuna. I used to stick to two kids max, but after doing the 100 baby challenge, I can handle many more in a household.
For me, it's however far they can get on a normal lifespan. Depending on my current storyline and the number of sims in a household, that can be anywhere from level 1 to 5.

It depends on my mood. Sometimes I'm all focused on the game and nothing else. Other times I'll put on an 80s or 90s playlist and jam. Occasionally, I'll watch others play sims or listen to podcasts. Lately, I've gotten into the more mellow lofi vibe when I want to just unwind from a long day.
I have loved it so far. In my vanilla save, I got a whole household inviting themselves over and it led to some funny drama. My poor single dad just wanted some help and he ended up wrangling rowdy houseguests and twin babies! In my legacy save, it was so amazing to be able to invite the grandparents to stay after a new…
My son plays my copy occasionally, but not with enough interest to buy him his own copy. When I started playing Sims 4, I gave my Sims 3 discs to a friend and got her hooked. She eventually started playing Sims 4 too. Other than that, most people I know personally thinks Sims is lame or a "girl's game."
My longest save lasted several years and 34 generations. I started to have issues with the save after a game bug and moved the current heir over to a new save. I'm now on generation 51 overall. I blog their story... the link is in my signature.
