The Sims Team has released a game breaking update for the game. Questions regarding The Sims 4’s stability and performance remain as well. Leaving the huge part of the community wondering what the future of their own creations is. Unfortunately, EA has added repercussions for Custom Content Creators and Modders who have been following the rules for years. It seems that the question that bothered many within the community regarding Permanent Paywall is now answered. You have to make an asset on your own, or else you might be reported by others as suggested by the new “How to Report Mods” section. If you plan to publish your Mod, the options of using The Sims 4’s official brand material is no longer an option. From The Sims 4 Logo and Renders to even the official Plumbob. The new policy also suggests that players no longer can use official Assets for The Sims 4 to promote their content. Which is a popular platform for CC Creators and Modders to publish their content and earn revenue. In the case of the simming community, this is most likely referred to Patreon. Whether people support them on Patreon (or other platforms) or not.
However, it was explained by some community members that there’s a big exception in the bottom part, which says that Creators *must* provide their Mods for free. Previously it was thought that there would be no repercussions for Early Access.
Passive advertisements and requests for donations must be limited to the Mod website or distribution site, and not appear within the Mod itself.Īll users must be able to access the Mods in full for free regardless of whether they donate. If you are a Creator who is publishing through Patreon, it’s getting obvious that you will **no longer** be able to provide Early Access to your creators. This caused some major issues in the community – one of them which was doxxing. A practice done by few community members where said creators never make their content available to the public, but rather lock their CC / Mods permanently behind a paywall. There are some valid concerns listed here which would prevent perma-paywalling. We reserve the right to address any inappropriate Mods, including Mods that infringe the intellectual property or privacy rights of others, contain obscene, objectionable, or harmful content, jeopardize the integrity of The Sims 4 gameplay, or otherwise violate the EA User Agreement. All users must be able to access the Mods in full for free regardless of whether they donate.Passive advertisements and requests for donations must be limited to the Mod website or distribution site, and not appear within the Mod itself.
Accordingly, Mod developers may recoup their development costs via passive advertisements and donations as long as: However, Maxis recognizes that creating Mods takes time and resources. Mods cannot be sold, licensed, or rented for a fee, nor can Mods contain features that would support monetary transactions of any type.
Not really sure what these do, or how to use them? Here are some demo gifs: (Not what you’re looking for? You want a dude with boobs, or a lady without any? Check out my secret cc page for my CAS Breast Toggle gender option mod) The male sliders are entirely new! Because why should ladies get all the fun?
However, the new ones have slightly different dimensions to the old ones, so some manual adjustment may be required to make them look how you want.Īnd, because the female sliders now use bones instead of sculpts, they should cause fewer issues wrt disappearing torsos and the like. If you were using the old version, your sims should automatically switch to the new sliders, so you won’t need to redo their chests completely.
The female slider is a revamp of my old 3d Breast Sliders, which are now no longer available. It works for all genders, ages teen and up, and has been tested on a variety of trans bodies, all of which work as expected so far. This is a set of two sliders (one for each gender) that will add a little bit of variety to your sims’ chests. They could always use a little more variety.
