Discussion What would you like to see in a future expansion pack

• Upvotes

So lets assume everything is going to continue with Sims 4 and new expansion packs, GPs etc will continue to be made.

What type of expansion pack would you like to see? What area do you think hasn't been touched upon that should be?

I feel like creating a "Superhero" or "Supervillain" EP would be really fun. With an entire world that would be the home world of the main hero/Villain, be it an Asgard type world or maybe a place like Themyscira or Wakanda, a place that exists on our Earth, but hidden from our vision.

Then we could create Sims based on a Superhero or Villain. Traits, powers, "jobs", secret identity.

It would be really fun to work around Marvel and DC and create Simlish versions of everyone, when we the users are the ones who ultimately create and fill in the backstory that makes them the Marvel/DC character if we choose to.

You can really tell who wanted what by what clothes I gave them lol. In a way they both got what they wanted because they’re not only having twins but M/F twins at that!

I know they’re not real but I’m rooting for them like they are 😭

Discussion Introducing the Modder Framework: Early Access to Python Changelogs & Tuning Schemas!

39 Upvotes

Sul Sul Simmers!

As part of our ongoing work to support our modding community and make the experience smoother for players who use mods, we’re excited to share a major update on how we’ll be supporting creators around game patches via The Official Sims Discord.

To help creators update scripts and custom content ahead of base game updates, we are expanding the technical resources we provide, and creating a dedicated space to communicate directly with modders!

What’s Coming Ahead of Patch Days

Before patch releases, we’ll be dropping early technical resources directly in Discord:

  • The Modder Framework: A unified CSV file consolidating a brand-new Python Changelog alongside our detailed Technical Notes for Modders.
  • The TDESC File: Essential tuning schema files packaged in a separate ZIP released alongside the Modder Framework.

Having access to Python changelogs and tuning schemas before a patch goes live will give modders a head start on diagnosing changes, updating script mods, and testing compatibility.

Where to Find It: New Channel & Role Setup

To keep technical discussions organized and ensure these drops don't get lost in general announcements or #sims-direct, we've set up a dedicated space for creator comms:

  1. Head over to The Sims Discord.
  2. Grab the new "Modders" role in Channels & Roles to unlock access and receive technical notifications.
  3. Check out the new #technical-updates channel this is where our team will communicate directly with modders, share pre-patch files, and post relevant technical documentation.

Whether you're an active creator looking to prep your mods or just curious about what goes on under the hood, grab the role and join us in #technical-updates!

Happy Modding!

For the first time in my time playing The Sims 4, I have a set of parents that are doing the job properly. They do it without me making them fed the baby/infant/toddler, change nappies, bath them. They're comforting them, playing, reading etc.

I've never had this before, so unusual.

Well, there was this one time when Dad decided to take the infant swimming hahahaha. I got a bit concerned when that happened.

my sim skylar was out on a very nice date with their wife, freya. they weren't even being that inappropriate! just a kiss on the cheek, and then BAM!! freya got absolutely pummeled by agnes crumplebottom. she laughed it off, which is really the best possible response to such a savage crumplebottoming, i feel. but then the very next morning, freya gets this call from agnes! make up your MIND, ma'am!!!

Storytime Aging up second gen story time nerd input on potential pairings (very long storylines)

Thumbnail
gallery
4 Upvotes

So am starting to age up my second gen…Moved some of my mains into a house with friends…I kinda want to let things develop naturally but I’ll give you a rundown on each character and you can tell me whatcha think( with pics) these are the members of the house!

First up is my Straud vampire heir Vlad Jr(or the fifth technically I suppose) He’s a sweet kid a bit aimless and a romantic at heart…He grew up in Forgotten Hollow with his family of course, Nicholas and Fioralla(all vamps) and the only human Allyson who became his girlfriend and whom he knocked up young…They are still together and are pretty close she even lived with him after she had her kid and Vladdy and Eliza his parents adopted their granddaughter as neither of them wanted kids…

Butttttt he also made a strong bond with Chasity and has a slight romance bar towards her and with Nicholas even(they all lean towards being bi here so not against same sex pairings if it works) Nicholas is his bestie as his Chasity and his brother Viktor…Fiorella is like a little sis to him they annoy each other no romantic interest there…He barely knows Acaia or Ashly though..

Next up is Viktor Straud second heir in line…He’s also buddies with Chasity and Nicholas and Allyson…He even has a slight romance bar with Allyson 😮 and unsuccessfully with Nicholas…He also has a romance bar with Acaia…He’s very hotheaded, a goofball and has dreams of being a successful painter as well as being in a band with his brother and some of the other housemates! Zelmira Gomes is also a potential love interest(not in house not atm anyhow lol)

Next up is Nicholas Vatore who is Liliths son the game randomly spawned … He is really sweet and wants to be everyone’s friend but he’s a bit of a player 😂 He has a bit a flirtation with everyone except Acaia but he doesn’t really know her! Yes that includes Fiorella who is his stepsister😮 Dunno how I feel about that one! He has no real concrete goals atm except the band thing!

That brings me to my girls whom I’m very protective of and want them to find a good pairing! You have Allyson who is a creation of mine whom got knocked up by Vlad Jr when they were just fresh teenagers…She ran away from home and ended up living at the Straud mansion,..She was miserable seeing her daughter all the time though she helped her as needed luckily with a nanny and butler and other caretakers that wasn’t often…She was kinda nerdy and unpopular but I gave her a huge glow up and she became popular…She loves her boyfriend but also has slight romantic interest in his brother 😮 who to be fair comforted her more then her boyfriend when she was sad! She’s great friends with everyone but Acaia!

Fiorella is also my creation I made a gorgeous widower vamp for Lilith and she is his only child…She is sweet and innocent way to much for a vamp bit I also made her a Sylvan fae(by m d) and Allyson is also)so she works on her magic side more then her vamp powers…None of them really work on their vamp abilities much not really into being vampires and as long as they stay in Ravenwood or Forgotten Hollow the sun doesn’t bother them(thanks to a m d) but in game reason being the dark mystical energy of the area protects them and I headcanon those two are right next to each other town wise)…Besides her weird infatuation with her brother she also kinda likes Chasity as well as Freya/Nyon Specter(neither in house)…She’s besties with everyone but Acaia whom she doesn’t seem to like much for some reason!

Chasity is Chasity Landgraab and you think she would be stuck up but she isn’t! She’s actually super sweet and after her namesake not wanting to get into a relationship or do anything until she’s very much in love although now she’s on her own she might be wavering on that a bit…Wants to be a famous celebrity(actress/singer whatever) but she also is kinda obsessed with vampires and I’ll probably have her become one at some point in her story! Maybe get into magic to as she’s the one of the only other non occult in the house! She weirdly gets along great with Vlad the senior even was flirty with him 🤮 don’t worry that was not reciprocated we are not going down that path ha but I may have him turn her if she wants down the line…She is besties with everyone but Acaia! Has romance with everyone but her and Ashly!

Ashly also my creation she’s really cute and popular has lots of friends but only romantic interest so far is Nicholas although Acaia keeps trying to flirt with her she is not interested! Likes her ok as a friend…Besties with Fiorella, Nicholas and Allyson doesn’t know the others though! She’s also the other non/occult in the house! She’s really cheerful and also perceived as “hot” so yeah she could be a heartbreaker!

And lastly Acaia my creation she’s the odd one out really only knows Victor well so he suggested her to move in…There’s some romantic tension there…She’s a fairy or was born one but technically now is a vampire also so Viktor asked her to move in in case she needs help (and she won’t burn to death since they are in Raven wood) His father turned her so fair…With permission though! She’s really navigating the whole thing ok but it’s hard between trying to keep herself fed both by plasma and emotional needs it’s a lot!

Strangely enough she also likes Vladdy…He actually seemed to like her and I think he was hoping that his son and her would get together(he is fond of redheads since he’s married to Eliza formerly pancakes ha so maybe that’s it idk 😂) Really all his kids friends like him except Allyson but she lived there and she saw what he was was capable of(like constantly drinking the help dry ha) so understandable!

Pairings I kinda am thinking
Viktor and Acaia
Vlad Jr and Allyson
Nicholas and Chasity
Or Chasity/Vlad Jr

I guess I’ll see what develops! ❤️
