[TS3] Smooth Patch 2.0 - MasterController Support
🕑 Added 2022-10-06 17:30:32 +0000 UTCHi, how are we doing :)
Sorry it took this long, by the way. This was A LOT harder than I anticipated, but I believe the hardest part is finally out of the way.
This early access update better integrates Smooth Patch 2.0 into MasterController.
New features
- Tons of issues you guys have been experiencing by having both MC and Smooth Patch 2.0 installed should be solved, such as strange regressions when using the Sim Bin in MC CAS or hairstyles not showing up, among other things.
- Multiple MC features like blacklisting, part sort order and multiple accessories per region now work correctly.
- An issue where sometimes you couldn't click on clothing items has been solved. This happened notably when choosing shoes for male teenager sleepwear, the game would lag and the clothing window would be completely frozen.
To-do/Known issues
- Show in compact form for clothes still doesn't take effect.
- There is an odd issue where it's impossible to click things near the left of the clothing grid window, making it difficult to switch clothing categories in dresser and stylist without having to close the clothes window completely. I'm looking into it still.
Installation
Extract the .zip archive into your "Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods/Packages" folder. If you don't use NRaas MasterController, you can safely remove the "ld_SmoothPatch_MasterController.package" file. Otherwise, keep both files in.
You will still need to install the latest 1.x version of Smooth Patch alongside this one for the best experience, you can find it HERE.
Tuning and Troubleshooting
If you open the "ld_SmoothPatch.package" file with S3PE, you will see a "LazyDuchess.SmoothPatch.Tuning" XML resource.
You can edit it to, for example, disable the CAS music fix if it makes music behave erratically in CAS for you. You could also disable the MasterController support, but I don't think that will be necessary anymore as they now work together!

Thank you so much for this! I'm downloading it for the first time and I had a question... Does this also work on the pet sections like for their coats and saddles etc.?

Hmmm when I download this mod my CAS glitches out entirely, only showing me one row of clothing and not letting me click anything. Am I maybe doing something wrong?

Hello, I come to report a problem or bug with the mod. I have this version of the mod so I don't know if it'll be fixed in future patches but, I ran into the problem that when I selecting the filter for chose expansion pack (for example, filter so that only items from the "seasons" expansion appear) and then going to the accessories section, the game freezes and there's no other option but close the game. I'm telling you so you can take it into account in the future! It only happens to me with accessories

Is it possible that this mod could be causing a glitch with NRAAS and override of EA sliders/max sliders option? I think it may be but I'm not sure of the technicalility of it.

Tested the mod with CAS music fix disabled in the XML and the issue still happens

Thanks for mod! Just note: IDK why but it doesnt work with Harder Romance (https://modthesims.info/d/668302/public-beta-the-randomizer-mod-reworked.html). It loads, but in cas - when you open clothes it is buggy and dont even load them x)

This is likely cause of the cas music fix, try disabling it for now

Found an audio issue with the latest version installed. Some ambient audio in live mode seems to disable or go missing when entering CAS through a dresser or a mirror and then going back to live mode With Smooth Patch 2.0 latest version - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QJegt-aUCI Without latest Smooth Patch 2.0 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jmNA4dvfEE
