The Sims 4 World Map
The new world Nordhaven is still in question, but judging by the info that already exists, it should be near Windenburg. All worlds were placed based on the scenery of the cities, the plants in them and the weather.

Someone's an Art Major - Apartment #2
I had this renaissance sim in my mind that I couldn't shake, so I made them a place. This unit is in the same building as the last apartment I shared, but looks drastically personalized; the reason? They paid extra to the landlord to apply the sticky wallpaper they found on online. Plus, all their furniture was inherited from there grandparents, so it's a win-win.
Evening - Apartment #1
Decorated an apartment for some sim, don't know yet, but they'll be in the save file.
Btw, it's CC free

A chill day off and I made this 70's style modern take on my dream home.
Asha loves being a mother, she never thought this role would suit her so well. She loves her children very much and tries to devote every moment of her life to them. Sundays are always devoted to family time, so taking advantage of the last warm days Asha had a picnic with her girls in a backyard.

extended phone calls
free download on patreon
this mod adds over 500 notifications and 30 buffs to phone calls based on sims' relationships and age.
you call your friend:
you call your sibling:
you call your wife/husband:
you call your girlfriend/boyfriend:
you call your parents:
there's a small chance of having an unpleasant conversation. this chance increases if you're talking to someone with traits like mean, hotheaded, or bully.
notifications are also distributed by age. children will receive unique notifications, and other sims will get specific notifications when calling children. there are also specific teenage notifications about admissions.
unique flirt notifications are also available if you own the "cupid's heart" expansion pack. through the "flirt" action on the phone, you can flirt with people outside of a relationship and receive new notifications and buffs.
there's a chance the person will tell you they don't want anything serious. this chance increases if the character has the noncommittal trait.
at night, long calls are possible only with partners. from 00:00 to 06:00, specific late-night notifications apply, with unique ones for parents and grandparents.
changed phone interactions include: "chat with...", "video call...", "chatty a family call with...", "flirt with..."
changes to the relationship panel interactions are: "chat", "chatty a family call", "flirt".
notifications and buffs are also added to incoming calls.
the mod will conflict with other mods that change calls in the game. for example, such as scumbumbo's call anytime. it is compatible with mods that add custom incoming calls or texts, such as 'connected sims' by adeepindigo, 'randomtexts' by kuttoe, and 'more send text variety' by tyjokr.
functional pacifier 2.0
download on patreon (early access) (public release - 02/11/25)
here i’m sharing the new features of the mod. for the main information, check out this post: https://www.patreon.com/posts/functional-108383322 requires the xml injector
new features in new version:
three new pacifiers are now available in three different colors. you can check out all new pacifiers in the video thumbnail of this post.
all pacifiers work for both infants and toddlers. i used the texture slot for glasses, so unfortunately, it’s not possible to use glasses and a pacifier at the same time. however, you can now wear the pacifier together with onesies, which wasn’t possible in the first version.
pacifiers will automatically disappear during meals and baths.
adult sims can now give pacifiers to children. after this interaction, the child will immediately start wearing the pacifier. for this, i used the in-game "check infant/toddler" animation, so there’s no custom animation. please note that the "give pacifier" action won’t show up if the sim is carrying the baby.
you can get pacifiers by purchasing them through the computer.
you can remove the pacifier by clicking either on the pacifier itself or directly on the sim.
please let me know if you encounter any issues. your feedback is incredibly valuable for improving and fine-tuning mods ❤️
lap reading for infants & reading while infants nap on laps
download on patreon (early access) (public release - 02/28/25)
this mod adds two new interactions with infants:
sim reads a book to an infant sitting on their lap;
sim reads books and boosts skills while an infant naps on their lap.
requires the xml injector base game compatible
here's a look at the full animations:
male sims have the same animation, with a slight adjustment in leg position. both actions require a nearby couch, bench or living chair. I didn't make the page-turning animation. i hope you don't mind — it would have made the process 10 times harder...
the books appear automatically. this is what a children's book looks like inside:
the adult book features cover art by illustrator daniel stolle. the children's book's exterior texture is artwork by ekatamandalIllustration. the children's book's inner texture features artwork by e. bauman and a. arinushkin.
lap reading
to start "lap reading", go to the "friendly..." -> "activities".
after the activity, both the adult and the baby gains increases in their "social" and "fun" stats, plus the following buffs:
reading while infants nap on laps
for this interaction, head over to the "baby care" menu -> "give baby a nap while reading...". you'll find several options here.
the "give a nap while reading fiction book" option only adds 'fun'. the other options add a smaller 'fun', but they help develop various skills (skills are only from the base game). the baby gains increases in "social" and "energy" stats.
after the action, both the adult and the child receive the following buffs:
note that if an infant has the 'hates being carried' trait, they will not receive the buff. similarly, an adult sim with the 'hates children' trait will not receive the buff.
i tried to make the action work for toddlers too, but i haven't figured out how yet. these interactions, like my previous mod "take a nap with infant", are based on the "give infant a nap" action. adapting them for toddlers requires deeper modding knowledge. i hope that either i or someone else in the modding community will figure out how to make it work in the future.
please let me know if you run into any issues while using the mod. i'm always happy to help, and your feedback is incredibly useful for fine-tuning it 🤍
i'm really proud of this mod! it's not perfect, but i'm happy with how it turned out, and i hope you find it both useful and fun.

Art Supply Store - No CC
I had to temporarily remove all my cc until I can organize it. My cc folder ballooned to 120GB of cc, and my game began to literally crash just by switching to another lot.
Anyways, I've revisited my New Orleans inspired save file, the one without cc, and I've begun to work on it again. I forgot how much of a challenge it was to decorate without cc, but I miss the challenge.
P.S. some of the art is from the gallery.
😁Tips to Keep Your Sims 4 Save from Breaking Down! 💣🤞🏾
If you've been on YouTube lately, you've probably seen the wave of players dealing with corrupted saves, forever loading screens, and worlds breaking beyond repair. It’s frustrating, but after months of rebuilding my own save (with over 30,000 mods and CC files—yes, really😕), I’ve found some ways to keep major errors at bay.😁
While no save is completely error-proof, these tips might help you avoid game-breaking issues and keep your Sims’ world running smoother.
1️⃣ Backup, Backup, Backup!
Always keep a copy of your save outside the game—on your desktop or an external drive. Do NOT rely on the in-game "Recover Save" feature, because if your save is corrupted, chances are the recovered version is too.
2️⃣ Use "Save As" Instead of Spamming Save
Instead of constantly clicking "Save," use "Save As" and create a fresh save. Overwriting the same file multiple times (7-10 times or more) can bloat the file and slow down your game. Once you've saved a new version, delete the old one (since you have a backup anyway!). This keeps your save cleaner and prevents sluggish performance.
3️⃣ Be Mindful of Lot Placement
Some worlds are known for stuck items, exclamation mark errors, or disappearing lots—especially San Myshuno, Oasis Springs, Willow Creek, and Evergreen Harbor. If you're having issues, avoid placing residential-Rental lots there.
However, I’ve found Del Sol Valley, Ciudad Enamorada, Tomarang, and Ravenwood to be much more stable for residential and rental lots!
4️⃣ Don’t Go Overboard with Mansions
Large homes with tons of clutter and objects can bog down your game. If you don’t love playing super-rich Sims in mansions, consider using large lot spaces (50x40 and up) for community lots instead of oversized residential builds. It helps keep your save lean and functional.
5️⃣ Stop Hoarding Photos
Sims’ in-game photographs and screenshots take up a surprising amount of space. Keep only 10-20 photos per household and delete the rest. Also, regularly empty the "Screenshots" folder in your Sims 4 directory to avoid unnecessary bloating.
6️⃣ Keep Your World Clean
While your Sims sleep, take a quick scan of the neighborhood and delete random objects left lying around (plates, trash, random items). This helps prevent save file bloat and keeps the world from lagging.
7️⃣ Purge Unnecessary NPCs
Check Manage Households and delete unneeded NPCs. The game constantly generates new townies, and over time, they clog up your save. You don’t have to delete all of them, but clearing out a chunk can help performance.
Bottom Line
When your save file becomes bloated with unnecessary things, it becomes unstable! That means it will start to break down and cause issues—just like the errors many players are experiencing right now.
Keeping your save clean and optimized is the best way to prevent crashes, long load times, and corruption before they happen.
Final Thoughts
😕Is my game completely error-free? Nope. Right now, I’m dealing with rain and snow falling inside my Sims’ apartments and houses (because of course, EA). And I still get the occasional MCCC Last Exception (but they’re minor).
However, I’m NOT experiencing the major game-breaking errors that are all over YouTube. A few months ago, my save was nearly unplayable, but these changes made a huge difference.
I hope this helps! If you have any other tips that have worked for you, feel free to share.
Happy Simming! 🏡✨
Cozy Cabin Collection - Bedroom
Hey everyone!
The final part of the Cozy Cabin Collection is here! It is a bedroom set and includes a modular closet with items to fill them up with.
I'm a little sad to say goodbye this cabin theme because I gained a lot of followers through the time I was making these sets and I also learned a lot of new skills and techniques. When I came up with the idea of a large collection to guide us through autumn and winter, I hadn’t expected it to become so significant in terms of sentimental value. I was always thinking about the next idea to bring to life and living in a cabin in my mind. Despite this being a sad moment, I’m so excited for what’s next! I’ll be creating a set for a commercial lot, and I’ve had this idea for about a month and a half. After seeing what the next expansion pack will be, I’m even more excited because I think it will complement it well.
A bit more about this set: It started as a bedroom set but somehow turned into a closet set with bedroom items. At first, I only wanted to add two closet pieces with the door, but I figured it would be more versatile (and not too much extra work) if I included the corner piece as well. A little info on how the door works: You can slot the door onto the closet pieces, with three slots available on each piece. It only makes sense to use the side slots if you have two or more pieces placed next to each other. I added multiple slots for hanging clothes so you can use the in-game clothes (or other CC ones) that are grouped together, but also place individual items without using the TOOL mod.
The wicker basket, folded sweaters and the hat box are stackable.
For the curtains, I made a curtain rod that, for some godforsaken reason, looks completely different in-game than the rod on the curtain items themselves, despite them having the same texture and everything. This was the reason I couldn't include them in the last set—I just couldn’t get them right no matter how hard I tried. I even checked out other CC that does the same thing by separating the rod, and they all had the same problem. Somehow, the lighting on them looks different, and I couldn’t find a solution. So sorry for this issue but hopefully it's not too noticable.
I think that’s all! I’m really grateful for all of you being here—thank you, and I hope you’ll like this set as well. Let me know if you have any issues, and feel free to leave your thoughts below so I can see what you like and what you don’t.
