Lana. Del Sol Valley. Reality Check. 1/?

Part 1. Part 2. Part 1. Del Sol Valley. Past events. Summer time. Getting into Pembroke Entertainment felt like a dream come true for Lana. She was finally on her way to pursuing acting and doing what she had always dreamed of. Florentina made sure Lana was settled into one of the agency's apartment buildings. She was given some time to return to back home, pack up her belongings, and move in properly. The gnawing feeling of leaving her old life behind was still eating away at her, but […]

💀 The Sims 4 kicked off a death MARATHON, Grimathon: a community CHALLENGE to come up with the most creative, brutal ways to send your sims to the afterlife.

After the weird cowplant stunt, EA dropped a full guide listing every death type and step‑by‑step tricks to pull off dramatic finales, plus clear instructions on how to resurrect accidentally lost favourites so you can keep experimenting without permanent regrets.

💀 The Sims 4 has launched a death marathon called Grimathon. Devs put out a CHALLENGE: unlock every way your Sims can die, from mundane household disasters to rare, absurd kills (yes, cowplant was a warm-up).

EA published a full guide listing all deaths and step-by-step tricks to stage dramatic finales, and, crucially, clear resurrection instructions in case you accidentally lose a beloved Sim.

Well I finished that Sims 3 OST mod and I was thinking about MySims afterwards, so here's a mod that adds the MySims soundtrack! It even has music for the pause menu!

MySims OST in Paralives: Drop in your own copy of MySims OST to listen in-game!

Codeberg.org

I just remembered one thing I always wanted The Sims to do that Paralives actually hasn't done or planned to my knowledge.

MySims-style furniture building!

Putting custom furniture in your house that you designed yourself would be so sweet. That's why I like MySims! I just wish it were less of a grindfest and more of a simulation game!

In the hands of the Paralives team, I'm sure the furniture builder would turn into full CAD software somehow, given how well the build mode turned out. But if it were literally just the parts and templates from MySims with the Paralives pattern system instead of essence painting, I'd still love it.

Several updates today that I didn't write individual posts for.

Seasons, University Life, Island Paradise, and Into The Future are all now supported.

This concludes the initial phase of development. Now I can get experimental!

Into the Future - halotroop2288/paralives-ts3-ost

Adds support for the Into the Future expansion's soundtrack. This concludes the initial phase of development for this mod.

Codeberg.org

Added Supernatural support!

I've noticed I have a copycat over on YouTube now, they're distributing a mod that includes probably just the base game tracks. I expect their downloads to be taken down by a DMCA sooner or later because they included the MP3 files in their download.

Supernatural - halotroop2288/paralives-ts3-ost

This update adds support for the Supernatural expansion's soundtrack.

Added Pets support!

Gee, I kinda wish I could easily add settings for each of these tracks.
I probably could do it, but it would be a lot of effort.

Pets - halotroop2288/paralives-ts3-ost

This update adds support for the Pets expansion pack OST. But you already knew that. No new bells and whistles yet. Just the standard array of song types. I now have a script to make it easier to make releases with the new build structure. Updates will probably not slow down until everything ...
