Hello all,
As you might have already seen, I've made a LIST with all mods I still want to update so they appear in one of the pond sections in build mode. Most of them probably also get the update to be place...

Since the 1.77 patch (Cottage Living release) I have been really busy with updating my mods for the new pond sections in build mode and to make some of them to be placeable on or under pond water surfaces too. To make it more clear which mods have been updated (not the full list), I created this list.
I'm back from my holiday, so I can work on updating my mods again. Unfortunately there're still a lot of mods that need updating because of the new pond tool and the new sections in build mode. I just hope that I will be finished before the end of the year.. 😅
For this week I've worked on updating my Unlocked Swamp ...
I've finished updating the boat and dock from the Unlocked Swamp pack, so they're placeable on pond water surfaces and can be found in the Pond Object section in build mode. Besides that, I've also updated the other objects in this pack with a few minor changes.
For a list of all changes, take a look below. 2021-10-15 13:11:34 +0000 UTC View Post
A little sneak peek of a few of the deco slots I've added to the swamp dock.
In total there are 14 small deco slots added, but I wanted the screenshot to look good so I only used half of them.
As for the objects I used, both the lobster trap as seagull will get updates later too so they appear in the Pond VFX section...

I've re-invented how to make objects to go through walls which now makes it possible to place this dock halfway on terrain and halfway in the water without using cheats. Downside could be that you can easily see that the dock poles aren't really supported. So to fix this 'problem', you can either use my non-transparent or mir...

Swamp Rowboat
Finally some sneak peeks again! As can be seen on the screenshot, I've not only made the rowboat placeable on the pond's water surface, but I've also added 20 small deco slots.
These can be used to place birds, frogs, iguanas or other animals on the boat. On the image all possible place...

First of all I want to thank everybody that joined me even though I was on a holiday. This says to me that you just want to let me know how much you appreciate the work I did already.
About my vacation, like always I made too much photos... 1435 to be more precisely, so I need to sort those out too the ...
2021-10-11 14:10:35 +0000 UTC View PostHello all,
I just wanted to let you all know that I will be on a holiday until the 10th of october.
Because of that, there will be no new posts until after this date probably.
I'm quite in need for this break because of the new work as a volunteer at a rehabilitation center for wild birds and mammals, as ...

The original fish fountain came with 4 different recolors, I've added multiple gold- and koi fish recolors to those. Another important thing that I've changed, is changing the footprint from 1x3 tiles to only 1/4 tile. Because of this, these fountains can be placed more easily to the edge of pools, fountains and now also pond...

This fountain was made from the Llama fountain that came with the Get Together Expansion Pack. I've removed the water basin and made it placeable both on land as on water surfaces. When placed on water surfaces though, it's better to use water pool recolors which are non-transparent or less transparent then the default pool w...

First of all, updating all my older mods takes a lot longer then expected. Sims4Studio still not being able to easily tag the right build mode sections and not having the option to easily set objects to be placed on pond water surfaces doesn't help with this either.
Especially the last thing mak...
This was my first waterfall related mod and I still think it looks very nice in all kind of gardens or parks. Because of the new pond tool, you can now also make nice looking 'ponds' like the one on the thumbnail.
One thing I couldn't update/change is that the waterfall will still stop flowing when the auto lights are turn...
My Water Jet Fountains have been updated. These fountains are quite high, so can better be used in lakes or large ponds in front of community buildings.

I've now also updated my Wall Light Waterfall! One thing I couldn't change (which was asked by someone once) is that the waterfall will still stop flowing when the auto lights are turned off. I couldn't find a way to delete this unfortunately. After this happens you need to replace the object from the catalog.

My first updated mods for this week are the Huge Water jets I released a while ago.
These fountains are incredibly high, making them more suitable for lakes or large ponds in front of community buildings. Public release will probably be thursday.

Hello all,
For this week I'm going to continu updating fountain mods. I still have a few that can be updated to appear in the fountain category as well as a few which might look good on the water surface of ponds as well.
I'm almost finished with the first 2 fountains already, so expect them to be downloadable lat...

After updating the files and testing them out in game, I thought about the idea of letting my Sims play in the fountains by making only a shallow pond where Sims are able to walk through, and then place a fountain.
In the images above a short tutorial on how to accomplish that, although it's not that complicated and you...

My last updated mod for this week is my Placeable Group of Koi Fish.
