Content Updates

It's about time, right? 😅

🪷 Patrons:  you should have the most up-to-date files with the downloads folder so you can ignore this post unless you're interested in reviewing the changelog info.

This update brings a lot of changes to my files. If you use any of my recipes there's a chance that it will trigger an error because the game is looking for something that has been moved or changed so you may need to update your save. Follow the instructions below to avoid and/or troubleshoot issues:

• 🚨 Please read and follow my Installation & Updates post to install these updated files.
• 🚨 If your save won't load after installing, see the Save or Lot Won't Load instructions on how to fix it.
• 🚨 If you are triggering an LE or have some other issue after installing see the Troubleshooting Issues post.

You'll find the Changelog in its entirety HERE, which includes links to download pages for all updated content.

New Scripts:

This is my first time creating brand new scripts and they've been tested so far without issue, but if you have any problems with them, let me know. I don't go out of my way to track or integrate with other creator's mods, but please report if you come across any game-breaking conflicts so I can address them.
