March Updates

Hi All,

Apparently Spring is here but I can't tell yet because my corner of the world is still so cold! Hope it's warmer wherever you are.

I've got a new public release, a few updates, a new mod in early access, and a new WIP sneek peak for my upcoming mod collaboration with PandaSama.

In May (I know, who thinks that far ahead but alas, I do) I will be doing some feature updates so for my patrons, before May would be a great time to let me know what features to any of my mods you want to see for a May release (leave them on the March and April Early Access posts) and I'll do my best to include as many as make sense and I have time for.

Public Release

Personal Care Services

This mod adds a few rabbithole based options for your sim's personal care needs including a tanning salon, waxing, nail salon, beauty salon, and grooming. The options are available under the General Pie menu. This will require the General Pie menus and only needs Base Game but if you have IL the Tanning Salon will be available, if you have Spa Day all the spa and nail salon options will be available to you, and if you have HSY waxing and shaving options will be available to you.

Athletic Career Overhaul

Patron Early Access V1

Inspired by March Madness this is an overhaul of the Athletic Career. It changes how Sims within the career are promoted and the activities necessary for promotion.

Upon entering the bodybuilder branch your sim has to compete and win a pro show in order to advance. Upon entering the pro-athlete branch, your sims must hire an agent, compete in a combine to be eligible to be drafted, and have their agent negotiate a franchise contract.

Bodybuilders and Pro Athletes will now have to compete in and win (though sometimes they lose) bodybuilding competitions and and sports games, respectively, in order to advance. Games and Competitions take place during regular work hours twice a week but can also be fulfilled via new interactions. Sims also need to participate in sponsorship deals and brand promotion and gain fame at higher levels. Additional requirements include media interviews and training seminars.

In the future, possibly in May when I do some other mod feature updates, I want to recreate elements of the Sims 3 sports agent as a new branch of this career.

April WIP - Healthy Sim Living

This past summer I did a poll and this was one of the mods you voted on for me to make. With help from PandaSama, who graciously created all new objects for this mod, it's finally coming! It will be released in early access in April. Here's a sneak peek at our collaboration, Healthy Sim Living!

This mod includes new NPCs including a Nutritionist at the gym, changes to Spa and Gym venues, health club memberships for sims and their household, new fitness and wellness activities, changes and fixes to EA oversights regarding weight and muscle mass gains/losses via exercise and food/drink, weight/muscle gain/loss tracking and moodlets, the addition of metabolism, fitness training and weight loss programs for you sim to complete, healthy meal subscription service, and more.

Additionally, the mod includes brand new objects made by PandaSama including supplements, juices/smoothies, healthy meals, a fitness tracker watch, and a smart scale.

We're so excited to show you what we've been working on for the last few months (yes, it's been about 3 months in the making)! As always I start with something small and it balloons into a gigantic mod I didn't intend it to be but alas... I wouldn't be me if it didn't :)
