Patch Check
Hey everyone, sorry for the late post! I have had non-stop health issues for the past two weeks.I've done some testing and it seems that none of my mods are broken. I think there are some mods that may need minor tuning updates, but nothing game breaking. Everything should be good for use! I still need to double ch...
Forever Entertained Reward Trait
Ever find it weird how there's a reward trait that prevents every need from decreasing except Fun? Well, I did: say hello to a new reward trait called Forever Entertained. It does exactly the same thing as Forever Full, Forever Fresh, and other suchlike traits except for the Fun need. Sims' Fun needs will never...
Mod Updates
Hey! A few of my mods needed to be updated for the patch. Nothing is really broken broken, just updating interactions for the new pie menus.Here, you can find all the package files. I've also replaced all of the outdated files on the original posts. Below are the following mods: Hug Lovingly for Best Friends and Mo...
Starlight Accolade Moodlet
I always thought it was odd that Sims don't get a buff when they get a Starlight Accolade. This small mod fixes that! Now when a Sim receives an award, they'll get the buff pictured above.Technical stuffThis mod modifies microphone_LoungeEvent_AcceptAward.InteractionTuning. For that reason, it does not conflict...
No Festival Texts
Hey! I'm alive! Here's a small mod from me: No Festival Texts. It stops NPCs from texting you and asking you to go to festivals with them. There are two flavors: the first one simply stops the texts. The second one, lazarusinashes_NoFestivalTexts_NoNotifications, also stops the notifications that appear in the ...
LiveDrag and Inventory Enabled for High School Diplomas
You know what's annoying? If your HS graduate leaves the household after aging up, moving their diploma to their new household is a nightmarish process. Thus came this small tuning mod, which enables LiveDrag—the ability to drag them in Live mode—for HS Diplomas and enables you to put them in your inventory. Th...
Trendi Situation Outfits for NeverPlayed NPCs Only
Fine, I admit it! I'm not retired! But I am retired from Patreon Early Access modding.Anyway, here's a small mod: Trendi Situation Outfits for NeverPlayed Sims. Basically, this mod ensures that only Sims who have never been played at any point show up in the ridiculous Trendi outfits. I made this mod because on...
No "Fear of a Dead-end Job"
I picked your career; don't whine about it! Another mod in a similar vein as my No "Fear of Unfulfilled Dreams:" No Fear of a Dead-end Job completely disables this fear, removes it from any Sims who have it, and blacklists the sad buff you get upon return for all Sims. It cannot be added to Sims any longer ...
No "Fear of Unfulfilled Dreams"
I can't be the only one annoyed that Sims whine if you don't do their wants. I am the God of your world, obey me. Thus this mod, No Fear of Unfulfilled Dreams, came to be. This mod completely prevents the fear from being added through several different avenues. If you have this mod, any Sim with the fear will n...

Storytelling Socials, Storytelling Socials: Dark Addon, Easy Sentiment Cheats, and Better Autonomy are all compatible with the latest patch (8/30/22). So all of my big mods.My last mod, NoFlirtyWantsFriends, is also compatible.
No Flirty Wants for Friends and Acquaintances
Surprise! A simple mod from me. I was playing Sims last night and one of my Sims, who I love dearly, got a want to flirt with an acquaintance. The problem? She's engaged. I don't love the implication that my Sim wants to cheat on her fiancée.NoFlirtyWantsFriends removes all flirty wants from friends and acquai...
Announcement
Hey everyone! I’m here to announce my retirement from modding.To get one thing out of the gate, I was planning to do this before the new guidelines; the guidelines were just the nail in the coffin.. Modding has just become a source of stress for me if it isn’t a simple mod, and the passion I once had that inspired ...
No Constant Phone
I swore I would mod out the constant phone use the second I saw it on the livestream. Here it is! No Constant Phone disables phone use when routing, chatting, and watching. In other words, it prevents Sims from using their phone when doing the following actions: Walking, running, anything like that Chatting with Sims W...
Mod Updates — 7/26/22
I'm still going through the tuning but it seems most of my mods escaped unscathed. I have two mods that needed updating: Hug Lovingly for Best Friends and More Force To RestoredYou can grab both updates below. I don't see anything that needs updating besides that. If you notice anything, please do report it!
No Flippant Tombstones
This is a simple string mod that does away with two flippant tombstone placeholders, "I told you it wouldn't work," and "Rest in Pieces," because the last thing I want to see when Sims I'm attached to die is either of these. The former has been changed to“Passed on,” and the latter is now si...

Storytelling Socials v1.6 is live! Storytelling Socials is an expansive mod that adds 60+ interactions with an emphasis on storytelling. Roast your friends! Stick it to a bad parent! Call your ex inferior to your current partner! In this update, there are 12 new interactions: Accuse of Ruining Friendship: If two Sims h...
No University of Britechester Ghosts
This is a simple tuning mod that disables ghost walk-bys for the University of Britechester. I hate occults, including ghosts, so it got pretty annoying to have them walking about.Technical stuffThis edits the walkby_director for the University of Britechester map of the Britechester world. It basically just deletes th...
Easy Sentiment Cheats v1.0
It's finally here!Easy Sentiment Cheats is a mod that enables you to easily add and remove every base game sentiment with additions for separate packs coming soon.Ever get tired of how complicated and somewhat ineffective sentiment cheats are, particularly in removing sentiments? Not only do you have to type the na...
No Fat Change Reaction
I have MC Command Center's Freeze Physique Flag on every one of my played Sims. I can't be bothered having them work out every time they eat, even if they only eat when they're hungry. The consequence, however, was my heir, Laura, stood up after every meal and reacted to her fat change twice. This caused th...
No Witness Crass Act
This mod disables unflirty Sims reacting to other Sims flirting and hugging. It also disables the accompanying buff. Really annoying to deal with; they stop what they're doing just do to this stupid reaction.Technical StuffThis mod edits the broadcaster file—an XML that essentially tells other Sims how to react t...
Better Autonomy v1.0
This is v1.0 of Better Autonomy, a mod that re-balances Sims' autonomous behavior to make it less grating. Sims will be more likely to clean, work, and socialize and less likely to waste time watching TV, playing Chess, and other things of that nature.This should be the final version if nothing else pops up (such a...
"Beginning" of the Month Update: January 2022
Hello patrons! Sorry I've been away. I've been in an extended stay for the better part of five months or something like that. During that time a lot of stuff happened (depression, writing, etc.) but we're all moved into the new house now so things should be returning to normal very soon.I do not have my des...
Better Autonomy Gamma
Whew, sorry for the late update on this one!In short, I've fine-tuned much of the changes I've made. They are as follows: Reduced draw to socialization so Sims don't stand around talking instead of working out, dancing at the club, etc. Increased draw to fun by a tiny amount, though it's still less than...
End of Month "Update:" November 2021
Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't been on here much for the past few months.Truth be told, I haven't been working on anything. I've been dealing with the nastiest depression I've had in a while. I haven't been writing much either as a result.My mods should be fine for the update. I've been playing i...

Storytelling Socials v1.5 is here! Storytelling Socials is an expansive mod that adds over 60+ interactions with an emphasis on storytelling. This update focused on family interactions, though it is rather small. I wanted more interactions, but life got in the way.In any event, the new interactions are as follows: Call...
End of the Month Update: September 2021
Hello patrons! Here's what I've been working on:Storytelling SocialsThis will probably be out next month. I was hoping to at least get Early Access out at the end of this one, but it doesn't look like I'm going to make it. Here are the new interactions aforementioned interactions will have no descriptio...
Better Autonomy Beta Crucial Update
Hey all, here's a fix for Better Autonomy for some bugs I've been seeing. Namely, that Sims focus on socializing so much they don't do anything else.At first, I was confused about this because it doesn't happen in my game. It wasn't until I remember that I turned autonomy off for NPC introductions (...
