The Sims:
We didn't get very far adding sims to the game, but all of the pre-made maxis sims are saved in favorites, and there are a few we added.
I truly appreciate each and every person who created the builds and sims for this project! All of you are so creative and there are some amazingly talented builders that were a part of this. Please look up their galleries to say hi, download and favorite their builds, and follow them. If you were part of this project and have a blog or YouTube channel, feel free to comment and leave us a link. Thank you all so so much!
This savefile is looking fantastic, I am so glad that I could be a part of this awesome project. So what\s next @HomeMama
Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you were a part of it. I don't know what I'll do next, but I enjoyed this project so much. For now, I'm enjoying the infants and playing with all of my packs again.
@HomeMama It is looking wonderful! Great work everyone!
This was a lovely project and I'm glad I was a part of it. It's been very inspiring!
Thank you for being a part of it, and helping us finish! I was getting a little tired at the end and it sure did help that fresh hands came in to help.
Okay, I finished updating the save file to reflect your name. So sorry for the typo. I also updated the long post to only have a link to the updated file, so that all downloads from here out will have the correct spelling.
> @HomeMama said: > @TheStrongOne I'll finish the save file in the next week, I hope, and I'll share a link to the save file. LilSimsie has an instruction video that explains it, if I remember right. It's really very easy though. It's not a mod or cc, but it's in a folder near there called "saves", on your computer. The same way you get to your "mod" folder, you can find your "save" folder. When you download it, it goes on your computer and you drag it into your "saves" folder. It then becomes one of your new saved games when you start playing.
Hiya! I just got around to adding the save file to my saves folder. When I went to load game, it said "requires desert luxe?" It will not let me click play due to this requirement. Wasn't this supposed to be base game only? Is there another version that is base game only?
I downloaded from the simfileshare link posted on March 24th post, which shows edited March 27th
Hi @TheStrongOne ,
Desert Luxe is not basegame, but it is free. If I remember correctly that's why it was included in this project.
You can check in your app to see if you have it enabled.
> @mightysprite said: > Hi @TheStrongOne , > Desert Luxe is not basegame, but it is free. If I remember correctly that's why it was included in this project. > You can check in your app to see if you have it enabled.
Is there a specific store it is free? The EA and epic are showing it costs money to acquire.
> @mightysprite said: > Hi @TheStrongOne , > Desert Luxe is not basegame, but it is free. If I remember correctly that's why it was included in this project. > You can check in your app to see if you have it enabled.
My research shows it was only available as free for a limited time and ended Oct. 17th, 2022. And someone had to know about it and manually redeem it. :'( Bummer, thanks anyway! You all did a lot of amazing work and things look great from the pictures posted. :)
Might be good to mention for clarity that the kit was free at one point and is needed, however not everyone may have it.
This is a really big ask... and would probably depend on if there was only 1-2 builds vs. dispersed throughout many builds that desert luxe was used... Would it be possible to have a version without desert lux items? Probably going to be a no, but figured I'd ask just in case!
Oh no! I didn't realize it wasn't free any longer. @HomeMama any thoughts?
@thestrongone I can't believe you can't use the save file. By rights, you should be able to play with it without the Desert Deluxe kit. Normally the items will be missing from the missing kit. Am I wrong to assume this?
> @abelhinha35 said: > @thestrongone I can't believe you can't use the save file. By rights, you should be able to play with it without the Desert Deluxe kit. Normally the items will be missing from the missing kit. Am I wrong to assume this?
I went back on to show a screenshot of what I see, and it is giving me an option this time to "view pack" or "play save with missing content!!" It did not do that before and only said I had to buy pack when I clicked "play". So looks like things are all good! It does give a message now that "Content from unowned packs will be removed." Yeah!!! Maybe there was a bug before?? No idea, but just thankful it is letting me still have an option to play without the items!!! I'll let you know how everything goes when I start playing the save file. :)

Awesome @TheStrongOne, its a lovely save file. I hope you will enjoy it. If you come across any please please let us know.
It sure is lovely! Just wanted to say how amazing everything looks and functions so far! I've played in a starter home so far, which is super cozy and cute, and just visited my first community lot, the park with pool. The attention to detail at the pool lot is 110%! Love the options to bring kids and they have toys and sleeping areas, as well as how many activities are available. Even the easels and observatory! Cannot wait to check everything out

Oh wow I missed a lot! I'm so sorry I haven't checked in in a while!! I'm glad you guys figured it out. I'm so glad it's working out for you @TheStrongOne . I'm so so glad someone is getting to use it. That's very exciting for me.

@mightysprite Okay cool...I'll correct it as soon as I can.
