Required File Hierarchy for my Content
I get a lot of questions about which files are required for my content so I thought I'd throw together an infographic showing what files are generally required for what types of content I create.

The content groupings correspond to the different pages on my site as well as sub-folders in the Downloads Folder, and the arrows point to the file required in order to use that content.
This is meant to give you an idea of how things are organized. Some downloads may have different/additional requirements so please check the 'Required' section of each download page to see what's specifically required for each download.
Why is it organized this way?
This keeps my content modular so you only download what you want to use. It keeps you from installing files you don't need and it reduces overall file size. I also have them organized this way to keep updates easier and more manageable for everyone.

Hi, I am a new follower. I'm wondering where is the link. Has it been finished yet? If the new version is on the way, is it possible for me to have a legacy version to play with? Like your work, cant wait~~~
2023-11-24 14:51:03 +0000 UTCGracia por todo de momento me bajo, pero ya volverΓ© como siempre lo hago cada tanto tomate tu tiempo eres maravillosa

2023-11-12 08:33:39 +0000 UTCI literally cannot play this game without your mods, your work is incredible, thank you so much!!

2023-06-18 20:27:40 +0000 UTCI just wanted to say you're the first Sims content creator I ever felt like I *had* to support on Patreon. These mods are so, so good, perfectly integrated to amplify everything from cottage core to survival stories. Thank you so much!

BrazenLotus
2023-06-11 20:40:44 +0000 UTCYour homesteading mods make cottage living feel so alive. I've wanted farm animals since the game released and I am just so grateful that you have worked so hard to make these amazing mods that allow me to do so much with my animal products, farming and foraging. And the cheesemaking mod? Preservation mod? Truly insane and so much fun. You are so beyond talented and we are lucky to have you <3

2023-05-31 17:37:16 +0000 UTCHow often do you update this folder? :3
2023-05-31 17:30:03 +0000 UTCI re-ran the automations - you should have access now :)
BrazenLotus
2023-05-31 16:39:02 +0000 UTCHi, I seem to have lost access to your mods folder :) Not sure if I had a late payment some month or other since I last downloaded, but I can no longer access the folder
2023-05-28 12:54:45 +0000 UTCSounds like a good place to start! You may be getting LE's because some of the harvestable files need updating but you should be able to just ignore those unless it's causing a specific issue in-game.
BrazenLotus
2023-05-23 05:34:37 +0000 UTCActually, now that you mention it, a quick youtube tutorial on installing it would be great, since it seems more complicated than a standard mod install (though perhaps it's just complicated to me π). I tried to install the core stuff and harvestables/gatherables and it's throwing last exceptions at me so I've certainly done something wrong lol.
Nicola Woods
2023-05-23 03:17:03 +0000 UTCYay! I'm not sure what should go first but I'm starting with foraging/harvestables. Whatever you think makes the most sense to go first in terms of your gameplay :D
Nicola Woods
2023-05-23 00:11:24 +0000 UTCHello and welcome! It's actually on my to-do list. If there is anything in particular you'd like to see me cover first let me know!
BrazenLotus
2023-05-22 23:41:57 +0000 UTCHey! New subscriber here (well, pretty new). I've also subbed to your youtube channel and I've been eyeing your mods for quite a while but haven't been ready to get started. I'm wondering if you'd consider doing a youtube video explaining the gameplay of your homesteading mods in particular. I'm so excited to dig into this but it's a bit overwhelming!
Nicola Woods
2023-05-22 23:29:12 +0000 UTCThanks!

2023-05-16 20:41:25 +0000 UTCYes, you got it π
BrazenLotus
2023-05-16 19:35:08 +0000 UTCI see. And the new content that isn't currently available to the public (and also not added into the folder) listed as "unlocked" on each post? That would be the way to know it's new, locked-to-the-public content that I need to add? Sorry for being so ignorant on how all this works
HitchcockBrunette666
2023-05-16 19:31:34 +0000 UTCYes, for now. I'll be uploading more stuff later today that won't be in the folders either. This is because the folder is available to all tiers but the content is only Pink Lotus and above.
BrazenLotus
2023-05-16 18:53:10 +0000 UTCOkay, so for example, is it just the cheesemaking skill mod that isn't included at the moment?
HitchcockBrunette666
2023-05-16 18:49:33 +0000 UTCHello and welcome! It's up-to-date but it doesn't contain any Early Access content. Basically if the file is attached to the post here on Patreon it hasn't been uploaded to the folders yet. The content already in the folders is always updated before the 'New Content Updates' post goes live.
BrazenLotus
2023-05-16 18:18:44 +0000 UTCHi! Just joined the $7 tier. I'm trying to download all your content as quickly as possible, and I saw this download folder and wanted to double check, is it completely up to date with all the newest updates at the moment? IS there anything excluded from it that I would need to download separately? Thanks
HitchcockBrunette666
2023-05-16 17:23:49 +0000 UTCThanks
Gloria Adenaike
2023-04-13 09:12:36 +0000 UTCNo, because new recipes are Pink Lotus tier but the Dpwnloads Folder is White Lotus tier. Once I've removed the links the posts on Patreon and updated the download pages they are added to the Downloads folder.
BrazenLotus
2023-04-11 17:03:56 +0000 UTCDo you generally update the patreon link to include new recipes?
Gloria Adenaike
2023-04-10 15:32:33 +0000 UTCIf it's changed, it's updated immediately.
BrazenLotus
2023-04-02 18:03:05 +0000 UTCHow often is the patreon download link updated to ensure that I have the latest of everything?

2023-04-02 06:24:58 +0000 UTCdecirle que hay alguno de sus mod que me anulan las tronas para los bebes e infantes y no se cual es por eso he tenido que sacar su carpeta de mods de mi carpeta

2023-03-23 06:11:16 +0000 UTCThanks.

2023-03-16 23:18:20 +0000 UTCAlso order brazen delivery menus are all blank
Gloria Adenaike
2023-03-16 23:08:29 +0000 UTCPlease follow the instructions in the 'How do I install it?' section of the 'Downloads Folder' link above. If that doesn't work then follow the instructions in the 'Troubleshooting Issues...' link above.
BrazenLotus
2023-03-16 22:51:24 +0000 UTCwhen downloading the patreon download folder today kept getting unable to load error due to corrupt or missing files
Gloria Adenaike
2023-03-16 22:39:47 +0000 UTCYes, I think the server may be having issues loading stuff when there's a lot of traffic.
BrazenLotus
2023-02-11 15:43:19 +0000 UTCUpdate: Nevermind? I went back to look again and it seems they needed to load or something. Most of the folders are empty when I click on them. Am I missing something?

2023-02-11 02:09:43 +0000 UTCthanks so much for keeping things so organized!

2022-03-12 01:13:27 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry for all your loss Latesha. π’ Mostly everything is updated. You can check out the links in the 'Content Updates' post to see which ones still need updating.
BrazenLotus
2022-03-12 00:33:04 +0000 UTCI was wondering if everything was updated in the folders as well. I haven't been around for awhile due to multi deaths in my family. So I need to update everything lol
