Video Game Completed – Name: Oneironaut

Atlas: ASH!!!

Asher: Finally. Are you ready?

Asher: What was that for? Atlas: I finished. It’s done.

Asher: Oh my god, we did it? We fucking did it!!!

Asher: [laughing] Okay okay, put me down. We’re gonna be late.

Dawn: [offscreen] How did your appointment go. Asher: [offscreen] Great. Two healthy babies, everything looks good. Li: Ooh, they’re moving again. Atlas: Can I feel? Li: Of course!

Aspen: Whatta you doing? Asher: My babies are in there. I’m saying hello to them. Li: Do you want to say hi? Aspen: Hi!

Dawn: Ezra Ezra? Atlas: Yep. Dawn: He’s the last person I’d ever expect to leave. Did the town burn down or something? Atlas: [laughs] I don’t think so. Dawn: Wow. Good for him, I guess? Atlas: [shrugs] Dawn: How are you doing? It can’t be easy. Atlas: I’m fine.

Dawn: That bad, huh? Atlas: I said, I’m fine. Dawn: You only say you’re fine when things are really bad. Atlas: I say I’m fine when I don’t want to talk about it. Let’s not ruin a perfectly good day. Dawn: Okay. Dropping it. Atlas: Thank you. So, what’s new with you?

Dawn: Aspen finally started pre-school last week. Atlas: How’s that going? Dawn: Really well. I was able to get her into the same one as Mei. Having a friend there has really helped. She’s actually excited when I drop her off. Rude if you ask me. She could at least try to act sad when I leave. Atlas: Aw. I’m sure she’s just putting on a brave face, for your sake. Dawn: [laughs] That must be it.

Dawn: It’s good though. Now that she’s out of the house for most of the day, I’ve decided to go back to work. Atlas: Oh yeah? What are you going to do? Dawn: I’m going back to the Dreamer Foundation. Obviously, my old position wasn’t available, so I’ll just be doing, like, part-time administrative work. I don’t mind though. It’s low-stress and gets me out of the house. Eventually, I can work my way back up again. Atlas: That’s great. I’m happy for you.

Asher: I’m done. Your turn. Atlas: Are you tapping out already? Asher: Yep. I’m gonna throw my back out at this rate. Dawn: You know you don’t have to toss her around like that constantly. Asher: I know, but it makes her laugh and I’m a sucker for it.

Li: Are you sure you’re ready to have two little gremlins? Atlas: You mean aside from not having a house or a stable income yet? Li: Of course. Asher: We’ve never been more ready for anything. Cook ‘em faster, will ya? Atlas: Or not. We do actually need a house and a stable income. Asher: Yeah yeah.

Dawn: It’s getting late. We should get going. D’you want to come over for dinner before you head back? Atlas: No thanks. Kinda feel like relaxing here for a bit, maybe watching the sunset. Asher: Such a romantic. Atlas: [laughs] Oh yeah, that’s me. Dawn: Well, enjoy it. Let me know when you get home safe. Atlas: I will.

I am beyond proud and so SO excited to present you The Sims™ 4 Sleek Bathroom Creator Kit ! It is to be released this april and I just cannot wait to show you more of what has been the most amazing adventure of my Sims journey 🧼💙

NEW: Official screenshots of my upcoming Creator Kit !

k-707 ( 2025 EDITION ) RELEASE - FIRST WAVE

It’s finally here! Well, the first part of it—because let’s be real, this beast of a project is too massive to drop all at once ( unless we suddenly gain the ability to compress/expand time ) ;)

For now, we’re rolling out the first wave of k-707, covering :

- Base Game/Seasons ( Willow Creek, Oasis Springs, Newcrest ) - Get to Work ( Magnolia Promenade ) - Outdoor Retreat ( Granite Falls ) - Vampires ( Forgotten Hollow ) - Cottage Living ( Henford-on-Bagley ) - High School Years ( Copperdale ) - Life & Death ( Ravenwood )

Yes, we know ... you want more—but trust us, this is already a lot. The rest will come soon-ish ( don’t ask for dates, we’re not EA ) and as we say again and again, this is a work in progress, time for us to understand some more things with blender managing vertex painting and so on ;)

For everything related to instructions, how-to and so on, see the previous post or the "Download Page" of the k-707 on our website.

We replaced, reshaped, optimized, and obsessed over hundreds of trees and plants. Everything is optimized for directX11 ... Now, in theory, all should move right, look right, and fit right :D If you encounter a purple question mark on this new release, just send us a message. We'll see this together :)

Do not be surprised, some trees ( very very few ) are not yet modified ( -> I think about topiaries ) and some others have been fully replaced ( such as the ugly majestic and royal palms in base game )

Never forget this is still a work in progress and some changes will be done later ;)

As soon as we do some minor modifications and checks, we'll release a SECOND wave ( which should be very soon indeed )

Later ( End of February ) a THIRD and final wave will be released ...

Installation & Warnings

Each Expansion has 2 folders : one for plants, one for trees

The base game is split into 4 folders : 2 lots + 2 debug

Expansions with minimal greenery ( City Living, University, Get2Work ) are in single folder named k-hippie-k707-multi-greeny-2025

Do NOT mess with the folder structure unless you love chaos. If you merge files and something breaks, that’s on you. We won’t be able to troubleshoot Frankenstein mods ... More information on our website or into the previous post ;)

Final Notes

K-707 isn’t perfect ( yet ) :D We’re still tweaking, improving, and fixing things. We are aware some textures and styles need to be refined/modified. It will be done in time. But this is already a massive upgrade. So, enjoy your lusher, greener, better-integrated Sims world—and if you spot a tree acting weird, just pretend it’s haunted until we fix the green :D

Remember the k-mods are still and always free. Thanks to freely give a little something if you can. This is a massive piece of work and so, a massive piece of time ;)

If you think it’s good enough to drop our way : PayPal link

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - > UPDATE ! February 25

We added few missing plants to the base game ( both lot & debug ) and some modifications to some plants ( azalea - hydrangea ) ... Some textures have been fixed. As we said, there will be adjustments and tiny updates. You know, a work in progress ;)

Tonight, a bit in advance, we release too :

k-707 ( 2025 ) for Sulani ( Island Living )

k-707 ( 2025 ) for Tomarang ( for Rent )

We know the gameplay bug related to for rent expansion but we finished trees & plants for this expansion, so better to release :)

By the way, as Windenburg and Britechester, Sulani will get a small k-505 redux quite soon. It won't be huge but it will correct details here & there. That was the Sunday late news and releases. Have a great week everyone !

Sorry for the delays but real world got massive changes and I confess I didn't have time to make more k-707 stuff this time ...

See you soon fellows :)

AVOIDING COLLAB LIMBO™️: OR, HOW TO ACTUALLY MAKE THAT COLLAB HAPPEN

a strength of Royal Simblr™️ is how common and easy it is to do collaborative projects. our stories and characters can be delightful on their own, but there’s something special about building a plot, a relationship, a character, an event, a whole entire world with someone else. among other things, it’s also a good way to make friends !  however, not everyone approaches the project the same way; this isn’t always a problem, but it can become one when it prevents a collab—especially one between simmers who enjoy each other’s work—from getting off the ground. you might know the feeling. you and another simmer express the desire to do something together. it’s exciting, especially if you admire their story or just think they’re a cool person. this is the beginning of something new and fun, until … the conversation never moves beyond that starting point. 

welcome to Collab Limbo™️

why does this happen? how do we avoid it?

gabe (@armoricaroyalty) and i have compiled some best practices in a brand-new guide. yes, yet another Royal Simblr Guide. the components of the guide are simple—so simple it boils down to three words and two phrases: 

intentionality

familiarity

reciprocity

“yes, and”

“no, but”

Sweet Beginnings Tag

This tag is all about looking at your past. All you need to do is to find one of the first screenshots you ever took (preferably also published), and post it beside the recent one! And tell everybody when you took that first picture! Oh, and don’t forget to tag your posts! #sweet beginnings tag

I was tagged by @applesaucesims and @yellowsocialbunny.

Okay, so this isn't one of my first screenshots. Most of the old ones have either been deleted, or I no longer have the Sims in my save. But I did make this "Holidays Across the Decades" lookbook almost two years ago, and since then a few more pieces of CC have been created or updated.

1810s: Caroline's gloves and shoes by @peebsplays. (Keep a look out for an update to the dress).

1900s: Nellie's dress by myself.

2020s: Diwali outfit by myself. (This was originally not associated with any character, but I put it on the 2023 Girl of the Year, Kavi).

By including Nellie and Kavi, I was at a number that didn't divide evenly. To make the rows even I added Nicki in something similar to her NYE outfit.

Not going to tag anyone in particular, but please play along if you'd like!

I'm finished with the builds for Spice Market №2 - I added a Chinese food stall right next to the old factory. I imagine that this was at some point an added garage that was converted at some point to the food stall. Now I only need to add some minor details and playtest the accessability of the build - but if everything goes well, I'll upload this lot sometime during next week.

This lot will be uploaded as a residential lot to avoid bugs connected with the newer lot types from For Rent and the new pack. The lot consists of at least 6 shops, an empty factory, an apartment and two townhouses with a rooftop terrace.
