Basemental Universal Venues or Zerbu's Venue Changes
Added 2024-11-05 15:33:00 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
While I have no interest in favoring any of the two modders as they both have been doing a great job at keeping the Sims community happy, I wanted to use this post only to clarify how these two mods work and clear up any confusion.
You only need Zerbu's Venue Changes, as it doesn't need updating unless an expansion pack comes up, while Basemental Universal Venues needs constant updating for every new venue any modder creates/changes.
They both do the same thing, adding new custom venues to the game venue list. The only difference is that Zerbu's Venue Changes adds new custom venues on the go without the need for Zerbu to update the mod and add new venues to the existing venue list, while Basemental Universal Venues needs constant updating and takes long till he updates it. Which is why for Sims 4 Tycoon i didnt mention Basemental Universal Venue as a requirement but rather Zerbu's Venue Changes, because it works like a plug-and-play.
So whenever a mod you want to install tells you that Basemental Universal Venues is required, you may safely go for Zerbu's Venue Changes.
For example, you can use Zerbu's Venue Changes and Basemental Casino/Drugs and it works, even though Basemental says that Basemental Universal Venue is required for those two mods.

2024-11-06 07:23:51 +0000 UTCI am going to try that because I had to get rid of a mod I wanted because they didn't use Basemental's...so I hope it works...

2024-11-05 21:28:44 +0000 UTCI've always used Zerbu's. I remember reading somewhere that zerbu made it so it's blank in a venue setting, so literally any venue will work. You also need to make sure not to use LittleMsSam's either.

2024-11-05 21:21:42 +0000 UTCWell I used to use Zerbu, and now for whatever reason I can't anymore. Basemental works wonderful for me now.

2024-11-05 17:01:30 +0000 UTCThank you for this, I never really understood the difference between the two and have always defaulted to Basemental's because I used BD and none of Zerbu's other mods. I'm going to go ahead and switch!

2024-11-05 16:35:46 +0000 UTCQuick follow up question - will I need to update my lots if I switch which one I use?

2024-11-05 16:28:26 +0000 UTCOh wow -- good to know. I've opted out of a couple of mods because it required Zerbu's and I had Basemental and I knew they conflicted. Thank you for this information!

2024-11-05 16:26:47 +0000 UTCI didn't know that, I've always used Basementals, without using another venue. Thank you for the info!

2024-11-05 16:24:40 +0000 UTCYeah its one or the other, as they conflict
