Changes to EA's tiers and policies (Patreon)

Hello, how are you!?


I am aware of new policies and policy updates from yesterday to today.


I reviewed the entire policy on the EA website and there it goes back to talking about early access:

• Note, The Sims recognizes that creating Mods takes time and resources. To recoup these development costs, Mod developers may:

○ Offer an early access incentive for a reasonable amount of time. After a reasonable early access period, all users must be able to access the Mods in full for free regardless of whether they donate.

○ Run passive advertisements and requests for donations so long as they are limited to the Mod website or distribution site, and do not appear within the Mod itself.


As I've been working on this early access mode for a long time, and for 3 months I come with 1 exclusive content per month, unfortunately the exclusive content I will unlink from the game and I will only publish early access.


However, in these 2 days I've been debating with friends to find solutions to continue making exclusive content for you, we came to the conclusion that me and friends will make exclusive content for use in blender, regardless of which avatar you are using in blender, you can use my exclusive content !

We will have tutorials teaching you how to use it, how to modify it and etc...


This will be the last month that exclusive content will be available until I revamp them all to High Quality Mesh and Textures.

I hope you understand what's going on, and the news to come! I'm really happy and looking forward to showing you the news...

Can you please explain the paragraph about blenders and avatars ? I want to continue supporting, I just want to know what for!! tysm

So blatantly continuing to abuse and disregard EA's *FIRMLY* stated policy of no permanent paywalls/exclusives...just shocking

Look, you're wrong, because I didn't say I would make it exclusive to the game, but exclusive to Blender! Two different things, don't you have what it takes to come here and say that without knowing how to read or not even wanting to read?

Of course I know, and that's why I'm talking about it in the post! I was never against EA's policies, now that everything is being commented, you come to say this as if I'm wrong? hahahaha very good.

"me and friends will make exclusive content for use in blender" some people just can't read I guess. It is non sims related. Is 3d content for blender bb

So, me and two friends will make exclusive content for Blender, for example my shoes, nails and etc... being that, you can put these items, in any character, avatar modeled in blender that you export and import for use there with High quality and texture without any link from The Sims 4 game. That's why exclusivity comes, as we will no longer be able to create exclusive content for the game! understand me ?

"We will have tutorials teaching you how to use it, how to modify it and etc..." says it all on what your approach is

girl, let's be honest, did you know how to use blender scene when it first arrived at sims comunity? majority of people did not. it is very clear that this 3d content will be made for any AVATAR to be used on blender. sims or not

Justify breaking the exclusive/paywall ban outlined by EA's updated TOU all you'd like

step out your little confort zone and realize this is for blender users and not simmers. it is dissassociated with EA and the sims.

I'm sorry if you dont use blender or cant afford, or create it your self or whatever it does not gives you the right to make such accusations if he stated it will be blender content, dissassociating it from EA and The Sims. Just saying.

Fantastic projection for daring to uphold the EA TOU and knowingly call out what this circle of friends have announced their approach is in doing just that

you're just being dumb, I won't reply to you anymore cause you're making big accusations withou any knowledge

I legitimately have screenshots of other users going about with this tactic. Please look into it more if you are not aware

babe, you have not seen what we are coming up with to make such accusations. save it. bye.

Dovelette
>>88864237

I've seen the same language from Cowbuild and Ruby Red so its not a baseless "accusation." Good luck

did you read my @ name? did you red his? we are not those people. Good luck on you being such an ignorant person.

Dovelette
>>88864237

I never said you were the same people but the language and approach is exactly the same. You are the one being ignorant and misinformed here. Fine, have at it

Blender is not related to the sims in any way shape or form. As a blender user and creator, I know this myself. Redhead is basically making clothes as 3D models instead of cc with no package file attached. No package file - cant be put in game - cant be linked to the sims. I also NEVER open my game to dress my sims as theyre now ripped from the game and in .blend format, I dont need CAS, I need blender. This is what he is catering for.

It was not your english lol. I am just uneducated in terms of sims cc creation. Positive news I read EA backpeddled on early access!!

Dovelette
>>88864237

I understand the nuances of a Blender file. Its the tactic of converting it into a package file for a fee/Patreon privilege that they're implying in the message specifically outlining how they'll teach you how to use/modify it and to continue making exclusive content which is against the Sims policy - "However, in these 2 days I've been debating with friends to find solutions to continue making exclusive content for you, we came to the conclusion that me and friends will make exclusive content for use in blender, regardless of which avatar you are using in blender, you can use my exclusive content ! *We will have tutorials teaching you how to use it, how to modify it and etc...*" Say whatever you'd like, this is the exact language and approach being used by others who are attempting to circumvent the EA TOU by making blender files that they'll teach you how to modify into one that can be used later in the Sims. If used purely in blender no problem, however its the method that most assuredly will be used when they finally teach the followers how to modify it for usage in the Sims that is the issue I've been trying to specify. If this does not happen whatsoever I am more than glad to be wrong and hopefully I will be but if that happens, its exactly as I've warned against and which has been announced by other users who are abusing the TOU and maintaining permanent paywalls, jeopardizing cc/mod creation and use for us all. I've said my piece and you're free to disregard it entirely but please consider the implications this has and avoid supporting/tolerating creators who attempt to find and abuse loopholes in the system instead of abiding by a fair policy for both creators and users.

babe, you have half of an infomation and are making accusations. the tutorial is to teach how to use an especific tool ON BLENDER, to use it on blender. The files made for blender won't even have an UV1, or any other maps that makes it a mod usable for the sims 4. if you wanna learn more about the sims 4 mods and/or blender content you are welcome and encouraged to visit my DMs. I'll be happy to help

I really don't care what you all decide to do with how your content is offered...I value what you do and don't mind compensating you for your efforts. That said...when will you be updating your sliders for the new patch/pack? Or will you be doing that at all? Thank you :)
