after uploading i realized i forgot to add my new patreon supporters to the list!! i am SO sorry! will definitely fix that next time!! so thank you to my new supporters: BIos, Jermaine M., Olivia C.
this is so cool! i don't know if you're from the pnw yourself, but here's some unsolicited advice from someone who's lived in WA for 15 years: - feel free to put lots of ferns around the firs and pines, esp. in the most nw parts of the region it's really common to have massive ferns - if you feel like doing so, making blackberries be the main spawning plant lying around the world would be a great touch, as picking them one of is many people's favorite things to do annually in the summer/fall, and they are native to the area - the overwhelming majority of houses are made out of wood/siding as opposed to stone or brick (lumber industry woo) in terms of dressing sims: - flannels are still very common throughout the oregon-washington area, as are outdoorsy type clothes like puffer vests in the winter - people tend to dress very casually, including wealthy people - scandanavian last names are very common here, since this is where many people settled when they came to america (specifically norwegian and swedish ancestry) Take or leave any of this, I'm super excited to see someone making a world that looks like my homestate! :)
i'm from new england, but i grew up absolutely in loveeee with the PNW and i always dreamt of living there! i'll have to live vicariously through this save file haha! i will take every bit of advice i can get from someone who actually lives there! i love the blackberries tip, will def look into doing that. i actually already started placing a ton of ferns lol the main things i know about the pnw are: pines/firs, ferns, gloom, cozy 😎 the scandanavian thing i did not know, and thats wicked cool! will keep that in mind when i'm naming everyone! thank you so much for this! def let me know if you think of anything else i should keep in mind
I lived 30 years in WA and was friends with some of the conservation folk and did some ecology conservation myself. Blackberries are one of the biggest threats to native wildlife. Himalayan blackberries are actually not native to WA. Please don't add blackberries. They're a non-native invasive species to WA that the state has been trying to eradicate. They're a class C noxious weed. Those are the ones growing along the roadsides and taking over the forest. The ONLY native blackberry is trailing blackberry and it's being out competed. Also the norweigian/scandinavian thing isn't true. The majority of european ethnicity/last names in WA is Irish more so than norwegian/scandinavian. You're thinking of places like Minnesota. We (as my family was one of the earlier settlers to Clark County) kept moving west as the east were extremely discriminatory against Irish settlers. WA was one of the last places to be settled chronologically, and the earliest settlements of europeans were starting in 1825. Migrants from Scandinavia didn't just *show up* there, they had to cross the continent first and the majority of those who settled in WA were in covered wagons and had been in North America for several generations. Also large ferns tend to be in old growth forests, less so in secondary forests. They need the extra shade and moisture, unfortunately secondary growth is usually taken over by invasive vines and blackberries.
@@impishrebel5969 Hi fellow Washingtonian! I had a hard time telling whether you were attempting to passive-aggressively rebuke every statement I made to show you knew more about our state than I, or being a rockstar and offering more education/helpful tips. Regardless, here's some clarification on my comments: I was talking about the Rubus ursinus blackberries, not Himalayans! I spent a whole summer in college trying to get rid of the Himalayans in a local park, to no avail. Show me where I claimed that people *showed up* here??? I said it is where many people settled, which is true. I was not actually thinking of Minnesota, I know what I'm talking about based on the history of the towns I've lived in for 15 years. The towns I lived and live in were founded by Norwegian and Slavic and Croatian settlers, respectively (insomuch as any settlement in America was "founded" by Europeans). Regardless, my main point was that Scandinavian last names are very popular here, which is true in my personal experience. I know about the ferns, i've lived in Western WA for 15 years and hiked it extensively. I was mentioning them because they are not something someone from out of state would think to put in, and she mentioned wanting the area to be forested place. Have a great day! Go dawgs!
@@allysonmurray5993 ok! I actually looked at mods and it’s possible ! Twisted mexi toggle ___ (vampires, werewolves etc) their mod will force sims spawning in to be human and so no occult stuff! No were wolf !
Absolutely love seeing more simmers doing this. Honestly thank goodness for modders. I personally would not be able to play this game without any mods. With the T.O.O.L mod and Better Build Buy we really can let our imaginations go wild in this game. Anyway, just a word of advice regarding the backdrops, before placing them down, I scale them down and once they're on the lot I place them down and click on them once using the Tool mod. Unfortunately you can't see them being selected like other objects, but usually they do get selected once you click on it. Then I just use the scale option in Tool and alt click until it's out of the lot boundaries, that way it doesn't get deleted if you bulldoze the lot. I hope this makes sense. It took a while for me to get the hang of it, but once I did it became relatively easy. It definitely takes quite a bit of maneuvering. I can't wait to see how your save turns out!
Yesss modders are a godsend! I wouldn’t be able to play it vanilla, either. Thank you for the tip! I messed around with the backdrops a bit more after recording this video, and I was able to get a couple in place better! They don’t highlight green but some make a select sound so I know they’re grabbed, others are a little more finicky lol I’m excited to share more progress!
This is so cool, I hate how we can't make our own worlds in the game. ❤ also this video was super helpful, thank you for sharing and explaining how you did it.
San Myshuno remade with a Seattle or Portland vibe would be cool to see. With maybe Evergreen Harbor serving as the industrial parts of those cities, especially since it's inspired by cities along the Puget Sound (at least it gives me that impression, I'm not sure if it actually is.) Can't forget Moonwood Mill being based off Forks. Del Sol Valley and Strangerville would also be an interesting addition. The Eastern side of Washington and Oregon have an entirely different climates than the deep woods and stormy coastlines people usually dream of when the PNW is talked about. As someone who has lived all up and down the Puget Sound for over 30 years, I'm excited for this and will definitely be following along.
That’s so fun you and your fiancé are working on this together! It’s a nice way to bond over creating something. I randomly just found your channel on my feed and I love this concept! My game is struggling cause i have way too much cc but i just moved my sims (gen 16-18) into a new save file so everything is default lots and the classic townies. Definitely am getting inspired by watching your video
Yea it’s an exciting little project! The game was becoming a little stagnant for me so I figured I’d start something new! I’m glad you’re enjoying the content! Good luck with your new save, it feels good to start fresh once in a while lol 💖
Me when you mentioned save files: “Say the line WolfXDreamer!” ‘ saves files like windbrook and folkling and… silent pines’ “YAYYYY!” (Silent pines being my most favourite save file so far)
I literally love your builds. They are so dingy and lived in! I’m excited for this project. I don’t own any occult stuff cuz it’s not my thing but I genuinely might get werewolves just for the build items and the Moonwood Mills world. Have fun creating! ♥️
The occult packs are honestly worth it just for a bunch of the items it gives you. Werewolves has great objects especially in debug. And vampires has some wall damage and cobweb stuff. I love it lol
all the support is deserved!! i've been here from the start and your vibes and aesthetic are the best, i couldn't believe you weren't a big simmer channel when i found you!
I can't wait for this save file. I have two save files you mentioned, and am waiting for next one you mentioned and this one too. Me too, I like those kinds of environment for the world. Looking forward for videos as well.
So glad I found your channel! I love the things you’re building, and I know I’m 4 months late but would you ever showcase how this looks during gameplay with all the different townies and you playing with your sims etc?
Thank you! Yes, for sure. I’ll keep documenting the process for the most part, and when it’s done I’ll post a tour video! I also have another RUclipsr that’s going to play test and showcase it on her channel when it’s done 🙂
u are doing so good so far!! i think ur gonna get the hang of filling the blue spaces in no time! i can’t wait to see what this safefile looks like once everything comes together 💖💖💖
I love this!! I'm from Seattle and love driving through these areas! I highly recommend looking at pictures of Aberdeen, WA for inspiration. It's an old logging town on the water and also the hometown of Kurt Cobain. It's never been particularly wealthy, but especially nowadays it is very working class and many parts are impoverished. Both old pictures and newer images/Google streetview would be great inspiration I think. My dad grew up there and I still have family there and it's always been a cozy place to visit. It seems like exactly the kind of town you have in mind! :)
Aw cool! Thanks, I’ll definitely take a look! I’ve been a little stuck lately and haven’t worked on the save file, so that might be the inspo I need! 💖
Just recently came upon your and account. I’m from the PNW, so I’m excited to see this when it’s all finished! I plan to download the non-CC version, only because I don’t like downloading a ton of CC. Can’t wait to see it all complete!
you’re a legend fr. can’t wait to see what you do with it. i wanna create my own save file too but this is too much for me 😭 i love when I see other ppl doing it tho
8:22 you should do something like allow subscribers to send builds or sims with a hashtag in the gallery to use them to have a lot of diversity and lore
I'd add Evergreen Harbour to the list~! That has a semi-similar vibe, especially the dock area.❤I love Folkling's posts on Tumblr and all the peoples who do realistic builds! Windbrook is good save file~
I’d say go for it! Make a duplicate save file so you can work on it with this mod, and if it doesn’t work out you can scrap it and it won’t mess up your original 💖
i think it would be so cool and immersive to create a custom map for it as an override as well just to improve the gameplay experience. i have a mod that makes it more realistic so i hope it shouldn’t be too hard to replicate!
this was really great! i've never seen this process before. if you used the blowtorch mod, does that mean that players will need to have that installed in order for the save to look as designed? i don't remember changing the data/delta files for silent pines or other save files, but curious how that works :)
Thanks! So I didn’t end up going with the blowtorch mod for this, only willow creek/newcrest emptied by awingedllama. So it’s just one package file if you decide to go that route! If I had used blowtorch it would’ve been a whole thing that most people probably don’t wanna deal with lol
There is a mod where all of the worlds and NPCs are all deleted. Something's blank save. I don't remember what it's called exactly, but you also already started so idk if you would want to start over. Probably not 😅, but it's out there if that's something you'd be interested in using in the future. Just takes a bit of the work out.
It takes a lot of talent and hard work to build an entire world ❤. That Tool mod is a tricky thing. I am trying to learn how to use it. All I have learned is moving items off lots. Sizing and rotating is difficult for me. I am amazed at you building a whole new world and changing everything ❤❤❤ I wish I could do this so I could change the world where vampires, witches and werewolves live because I like to play more realistic game play so that doesn’t fit in but I would love to use the world to travel to as vacation spots. I know many people like to play with the cults in the game but I am more into realistic game play. Wish you were changing one of those words ❤😂😊
TOOL definitely had a bit of a learning curve, but keep trying and you’ll get the hang of it! It took me a while, and I’m still not a pro with it lol. I wish that awingedllama would make empty world mods for all the worlds! That would be awesome!
great video. i have been look for something this. i have already did the blowtorch mod. i need the tree to go. how can I remove the tree or hind them. i look on your patron. i do not see that save file on here.
@@ladyTSimmer it’s still a work in progress so I didn’t upload it. Here’s the mod (it only removes stuff from willow creek and newcrest) www.tumblr.com/awingedllama/722878561457930240/hi-do-you-think-you-could-release-the-override
That is sooo cool that the mod allows you to remove everything! How cool! I did not realize this was a thing. Makes it so much more immersive and detailed rather than trying to work around what’s already in willow creek! Looking forward to this! 🫶🏻🤎
i just noticed you using the Tool Mod with Dark UI and I wanna ask if you are having any conflicts? i started using the Tool mod bc of this video, it inspired me a lot ahah
Aw cool! Thank you!! The tool mod is a great…tool lol. The UI mod has instructions in the folder that tells you to remove certain files that conflict with certain mods, like tool. So just be sure to read the entire patreon post and all the directions and you should be fine! I have no issues
Cc roads are by awingedllama and backdrops are by florwal: florwal.tumblr.com/post/751118546990432256/buyable-backdrops?is_liked_post=1 www.tumblr.com/awingedllama/716999595609210880/bg-terrain-replacement-for-the-anons-asking-about
@@Simventure77 no problem! And yea same, I was debating between PNW and New England since I haven’t rly seen anyone do those, most seem a bit Midwest themed. New England theme would be a fun one!
Hi, loved the video, your aesthetic is everything. I’m also into making a save file rn but I’m kinda newbie to some mods. Soo, about blowtorch, how can i make it apply only to one save file? I’m so scared to “ruin” older saves.😢 please someone help me
Hey thank you! So blowtorch will remove everything but the trees. It will apply to all your save files. All you have to do is back up the files you are replacing, that way if you want to set it all back to normal, it’s really easy to do. It won’t ruin anything, it’s very easy to undo it. But it WILL affect all save files in the sense that it will remove objects from the world you install it in.
The trees aren’t removed with blowtorch. Only the buildings and other deco. To remove the trees you have to use the hider by awingedllama. www.tumblr.com/awingedllama/722878561457930240/hi-do-you-think-you-could-release-the-override
If you figure out how to place the backdrops let me know! I'm trying to make a custom world as well, but I can't figure out how to place them so that you do not see the edge of the world still. I don't know how to make it look more realistic to the game. I looked everywhere for a tutorial, and I can't find any info anywhere 😭 so if you figure it out can you make a tutorial video?
its a painnnn!!! ill talk about it in my next video. but i figured out that once i place the backdrop, if i lower it using a negative number in the "elevate" option in TOOL, you can lower it enough so it still looks good but doesnt show edges, and then whatever imperfections are still there, add tree backdrops in front of them
@@wolfxdreamer6860 I made a custom skirting out of a base game world skirting for the edge of the world! (since the buyable backdrops didn't have base game ones) it's a pain to place cause for some reason it's out of view when you place it and every time you move it the elevation resets and you have to lower it again then if it doesn't line up. move it again then lower it again, on and on until it matches up. it took me a few hours but I wrote down the exact scale, elevation and place on the neighborhood map to place it. If you'd like the file just let me know :)
Hi! Honestly it’s been so long since I’ve played the game vanilla that I can’t remember if it’s a game feature or if it’s from the betterbuildbuy mod. I hit tab to go into the free camera mode!
after uploading i realized i forgot to add my new patreon supporters to the list!! i am SO sorry! will definitely fix that next time!! so thank you to my new supporters: BIos, Jermaine M., Olivia C.
Are you going to allow us to submit sims for your save file??
@@zebras04 yea pretty much, just have to think of how to go about it. Maybe host something on Instagram with a hashtag to keep track!
Hey, could link the winged llama tree hider mod?
It’s amazing what mods can do it looks like a whole different game😭
I know right 😭😍
this is so cool! i don't know if you're from the pnw yourself, but here's some unsolicited advice from someone who's lived in WA for 15 years:
- feel free to put lots of ferns around the firs and pines, esp. in the most nw parts of the region it's really common to have massive ferns
- if you feel like doing so, making blackberries be the main spawning plant lying around the world would be a great touch, as picking them one of is many people's favorite things to do annually in the summer/fall, and they are native to the area
- the overwhelming majority of houses are made out of wood/siding as opposed to stone or brick (lumber industry woo)
in terms of dressing sims:
- flannels are still very common throughout the oregon-washington area, as are outdoorsy type clothes like puffer vests in the winter
- people tend to dress very casually, including wealthy people
- scandanavian last names are very common here, since this is where many people settled when they came to america (specifically norwegian and swedish ancestry)
Take or leave any of this, I'm super excited to see someone making a world that looks like my homestate! :)
i'm from new england, but i grew up absolutely in loveeee with the PNW and i always dreamt of living there! i'll have to live vicariously through this save file haha! i will take every bit of advice i can get from someone who actually lives there! i love the blackberries tip, will def look into doing that. i actually already started placing a ton of ferns lol the main things i know about the pnw are: pines/firs, ferns, gloom, cozy 😎
the scandanavian thing i did not know, and thats wicked cool! will keep that in mind when i'm naming everyone!
thank you so much for this! def let me know if you think of anything else i should keep in mind
I lived 30 years in WA and was friends with some of the conservation folk and did some ecology conservation myself. Blackberries are one of the biggest threats to native wildlife. Himalayan blackberries are actually not native to WA. Please don't add blackberries. They're a non-native invasive species to WA that the state has been trying to eradicate. They're a class C noxious weed. Those are the ones growing along the roadsides and taking over the forest. The ONLY native blackberry is trailing blackberry and it's being out competed.
Also the norweigian/scandinavian thing isn't true. The majority of european ethnicity/last names in WA is Irish more so than norwegian/scandinavian. You're thinking of places like Minnesota. We (as my family was one of the earlier settlers to Clark County) kept moving west as the east were extremely discriminatory against Irish settlers.

Migrants from Scandinavia didn't just *show up* there, they had to cross the continent first and the majority of those who settled in WA were in covered wagons and had been in North America for several generations.
Also large ferns tend to be in old growth forests, less so in secondary forests. They need the extra shade and moisture, unfortunately secondary growth is usually taken over by invasive vines and blackberries.

Yay I’m glad! I’m eager to keep sharing the process with everyone! 💖
I know this is going to look incredible when finished. I wish I didn't need mods to do this because I would love to do something like this!
I knowww I wish this game had a create a world feature. That would make it so much more fun 😭
I am anticipating this. Can't wait and take your time ❤🎉
🫶🏻 I’m eager to breathe some life into this new world!
WE LOVE YOUUU!! CONGRATS
THANK YOU BB 💖
i think it would be so cool and immersive to create a custom map for it as an override as well just to improve the gameplay experience. i have a mod that makes it more realistic so i hope it shouldn’t be too hard to replicate!
That would be awesome!! I have no idea how to create custom maps 🫣
this was really great! i've never seen this process before. if you used the blowtorch mod, does that mean that players will need to have that installed in order for the save to look as designed? i don't remember changing the data/delta files for silent pines or other save files, but curious how that works :)
Thanks! So I didn’t end up going with the blowtorch mod for this, only willow creek/newcrest emptied by awingedllama. So it’s just one package file if you decide to go that route! If I had used blowtorch it would’ve been a whole thing that most people probably don’t wanna deal with lol
This reminds me so much of life is strange! I love this already
I shoulda just waited 😂
Thank youuu!
OMGGGGGG I cant wait for this!
Loved this video and other details you mentioned. Maybe you can add some twilight reference somewhere.. i know lot of ppl hate it but i love 😂
Since it was filmed/based in PNW
Yes absolutely! Lol I forgot to mention twilight is one of the movies that I’m using as inspo for this! Lol
@@wolfxdreamer6860 Yay !
I love this already omg
Yay thank you I’m glad!!
Omg, this is amazing! I gotta lear how to use tool, because I miss being able to decorate the world.
It seems more intimidating than it is. Def utilize it, cause it’s amazing lol
I love this already! ❤
This sounds so cool ❤
I’m happy you think so! 💖
I'm so excited! ❤
🥰
Sounds amazing!
Thanks! Happy you think so!
I’m obsessed!
This is so cute! ❤
🥰
There is a mod where all of the worlds and NPCs are all deleted. Something's blank save. I don't remember what it's called exactly, but you also already started so idk if you would want to start over. Probably not 😅, but it's out there if that's something you'd be interested in using in the future. Just takes a bit of the work out.
Yea I’ve thought about it. Gonna have to restart the save anyway since it got messed up by the update, so maybe I will!
This is giving me Sims 2 vibes. I need to get those mods.
Yessss get them, so worth it!
@@wolfxdreamer6860 I will. Also can’t wait to see how your save turns out. Just subbed.
@@racheydz99 thank you so much! 🥹💖
love this 💗💗
🥰🫶🏻
The world map looks so much like sims 2 I was thinking this actually is sims 2 for a moment
It takes a lot of talent and hard work to build an entire world ❤. That Tool mod is a tricky thing. I am trying to learn how to use it. All I have learned is moving items off lots. Sizing and rotating is difficult for me. I am amazed at you building a whole new world and changing everything ❤❤❤
I wish I could do this so I could change the world where vampires, witches and werewolves live because I like to play more realistic game play so that doesn’t fit in but I would love to use the world to travel to as vacation spots. I know many people like to play with the cults in the game but I am more into realistic game play. Wish you were changing one of those words ❤😂😊
TOOL definitely had a bit of a learning curve, but keep trying and you’ll get the hang of it! It took me a while, and I’m still not a pro with it lol.
I wish that awingedllama would make empty world mods for all the worlds! That would be awesome!
@@wolfxdreamer6860 I’m in ah At everything you were doing 😍
How do you film your videos?
@@sensibilities1 I use the nvidia GeForce experience software to record. But OBS is also a great program 💖
great video. i have been look for something this. i have already did the blowtorch mod. i need the tree to go. how can I remove the tree or hind them. i look on your patron. i do not see that save file on here.
@@ladyTSimmer it’s still a work in progress so I didn’t upload it. Here’s the mod (it only removes stuff from willow creek and newcrest) www.tumblr.com/awingedllama/722878561457930240/hi-do-you-think-you-could-release-the-override
Thank you so much 🥰
wait what's that deco building on the left at 10:10?
It’s from the high school years pack. It’s like a little convenience store ice cream place type of vibe
@@wolfxdreamer6860 thank u sm 🙏
@@luluastarrrrr np!
I love your dream
Thank you 🥹
Need something like this for sims 3
That is sooo cool that the mod allows you to remove everything! How cool! I did not realize this was a thing. Makes it so much more immersive and detailed rather than trying to work around what’s already in willow creek! Looking forward to this! 🫶🏻🤎
Yesss I love this mod so much, definitely makes this whole process so much more fun and creative. I’m stoked!
i just noticed you using the Tool Mod with Dark UI and I wanna ask if you are having any conflicts? i started using the Tool mod bc of this video, it inspired me a lot ahah
Aw cool! Thank you!! The tool mod is a great…tool lol. The UI mod has instructions in the folder that tells you to remove certain files that conflict with certain mods, like tool. So just be sure to read the entire patreon post and all the directions and you should be fine! I have no issues
Hi again, where did you get the CC roads and backdrops?
Cc roads are by awingedllama and backdrops are by florwal:

@@wolfxdreamer6860 Thank you, I'm going to create my own save file. I'm trying to think of a different theme on what everyone else has done lol
@@Simventure77 no problem! And yea same, I was debating between PNW and New England since I haven’t rly seen anyone do those, most seem a bit Midwest themed. New England theme would be a fun one!
@wolfxdreamer6860 I really want to do something with the horses. I love the horse ranch pack but the world isn't my favorite 😕
@@Simventure77 ooo cold mountainy Colorado vibes maybe? I love horses so much too, I love having them be a bigger element of the save 💖
Hi, loved the video, your aesthetic is everything. I’m also into making a save file rn but I’m kinda newbie to some mods. Soo, about blowtorch, how can i make it apply only to one save file? I’m so scared to “ruin” older saves.😢 please someone help me
Hey thank you!
So blowtorch will remove everything but the trees. It will apply to all your save files. All you have to do is back up the files you are replacing, that way if you want to set it all back to normal, it’s really easy to do. It won’t ruin anything, it’s very easy to undo it. But it WILL affect all save files in the sense that it will remove objects from the world you install it in.
here is a tutorial on how to install it. 💖

@@wolfxdreamer6860thanks and sorry for being such a noob but some aspects of the game require a higher level of skills I wasn’t gifted lol😅
@@wanderIvst haha no worries! Here to help 💖
hope this isnt a stupid question but i downloaded the blowtorch mod and i still have the trees in willow creek
The trees aren’t removed with blowtorch. Only the buildings and other deco. To remove the trees you have to use the hider by awingedllama. www.tumblr.com/awingedllama/722878561457930240/hi-do-you-think-you-could-release-the-override
There no alternative besides blowtorch that gets rid of what you need? Cause the hidden stuff mod seems a little bothersome and annoying
@@possum_punk not that I know of :/ those are the only two I’m aware of
I wonder if someone added the willow creek debug in as cc if it would work?
i would love to make workers like teachers, diner workers, or like other NPCs for your save, completely CC free
I would love to have them!! I’ll def post something as soon as I decide how to go about it!
If you figure out how to place the backdrops let me know! I'm trying to make a custom world as well, but I can't figure out how to place them so that you do not see the edge of the world still. I don't know how to make it look more realistic to the game. I looked everywhere for a tutorial, and I can't find any info anywhere 😭 so if you figure it out can you make a tutorial video?
its a painnnn!!! ill talk about it in my next video. but i figured out that once i place the backdrop, if i lower it using a negative number in the "elevate" option in TOOL, you can lower it enough so it still looks good but doesnt show edges, and then whatever imperfections are still there, add tree backdrops in front of them
@@wolfxdreamer6860 I made a custom skirting out of a base game world skirting for the edge of the world! (since the buyable backdrops didn't have base game ones) it's a pain to place cause for some reason it's out of view when you place it and every time you move it the elevation resets and you have to lower it again then if it doesn't line up. move it again then lower it again, on and on until it matches up. it took me a few hours but I wrote down the exact scale, elevation and place on the neighborhood map to place it. If you'd like the file just let me know :)
Hi 😊, are you using some a camera mod? In my game I can't move it freely like that.
Hi! Honestly it’s been so long since I’ve played the game vanilla that I can’t remember if it’s a game feature or if it’s from the betterbuildbuy mod. I hit tab to go into the free camera mode!
Please show all the process
Will show as much as I possibly can!
why does Oregon /Washington town have to be gloomy!!!!!!we have sunshine for 2 months!
2 whole months?! That’s too many tbh. I want the clouds forever. Where I live, I have about 2 months of gloom and I NEED more.
does anyone know how to use sunblind with this mod? I have blowtorch and flamethrower and the lighting mod just doesnt work if theyre in
Blowtorch includes sunblind 💖
@ Omg i did not know that thank you 😭
@@gorillan3433 yw!!
What UI mod do you use?
Chalk’d UI by vyxated. It’s broken at the moment due to the update though 😭
ik this was coming like yesterday
i wanna start a save file but i get so overwhelmed lol
Lol I’m overwhelmed already! But the excitement of it is overpowering that feeling
will you share this save pls?
Absolutely!!
Need something like this for sims 3
I haven’t played that in a long time. Can’t you create world from scratch in sims 3?
