Hello everyone,

Yesterday, I was thinking that I hate how when I spend days working on some urgent fixes and such, I'm the only one to know, and that's a problem. I brought this up on a modder's forum. Other modders also felt that as an issue, and a bunch of us ended up opting for making Trello boards as a solution.

If you would like to see, at any point, what modding work I've been busy with over the past week or day, this will now be where to go. 

It's brand new as of today but I'll be writing what I did that day basically every day, so there's a clear log of where I'm at with the mods!

I like to keep people informed but without harassing with notifications, so, those of you who like to have more info now know where to find it :)

From the nature of what I am fixing up this week, it's an emergency to work on that in priority, and it's unfortunately seriously complicated stuff and needed to take the time it did... I am almost done with that and will release the fixes tomorrow and then be free to once again work on continuing Module 10 and announcing more regarding it and making the suggestion / request post soon.

The adoption module is truly one of the most challenging things I've done, fully because of how the game handles family links and how it is complicated to take a sim out of its original family without causing some strangeness... I am glad it is almost all behind me now. 

For module 10, the separated status and all the in-between stuff is fairly complete; the permanent separation additions (and the whole amicable aspect) as well as everything custody / visits / child support related still needs serious work however. I'm still aiming for the month of May and I believe in it to make it real!

You all are absolute blessings, I will never be able to thank you enough for being here and supporting me and my work, even if just for a bit.

You change my life and I couldn't do what I do with the same heart in it without your enthusiasm pushing me forwards in times where the modding gets tough. Thank you and thank you for your patience ♡

Best,
Lumpinou

I just started Twitch streaming for the first time last night and I of course had to talk about your mods on my stream! My favorite modder by far!

I'm not sure if you've thought about this, but I would love an add-on that gives children a reaction to finding out their parent is having another child.

lumpinou

There's stuff regarding that planned for v3, regarding the adoption part and the normal pregnancy part :)

Is there anyway you can create a Legacy version of this mod or something smaller/simpler that can be supported? Really want this mod! :(

Hey I hope you are well. I have an issue with module 9 in my game. I brought the problem to you when I noticed it. Basically the adoptee biological grandparents become the adopters biological parents. What this has now done is made the families I am playing brother's and sisters even if they were husband and wife with no ties of relationship apart from marriage. I had to result in attempting to remove the last saves from the save file to adjust which ended up deleting my whole game when putting the files back. Not going to lie I am actually upset because it seemed like a cool concept but all my gameplay and effort has disappeared. 😫

This has been fixed some weeks ago, are you on the latest version?

lumpinou

As for saves, it's always wise to make backups, especially when using mods. Normally nothing goes wrong but some things can. When you want to delete a save or recover previous saves, the best way to do so is to use the in game feature for that. If you did it manually - are your files not still in your computer trash bin?

Hey I know I have been reading your updates and yes I am on the latest version that's why I am upset that the problem has persisted. For example, the last family I played was chosen as a host family for the adoptee and it made the husband and wife who were adopting brothers and sisters and removed any pie menu romantic interactions between them.

lumpinou

Families which had the issue applied to them cannot be reversed back by the update, it's only for new cases, as in, the issue can't be caused anymore. If you are still having that weirdness with new families that adopt, it's not normal at all, as the issues have all been fixed and many times verified to be fixed. Any chance you have old files accidentally in there somewhere?

In regards to the saves, I must admit I am not an expert in that field because I have never touched the saved files until trying to reverse the adoption issue. I could check the bin but I noticed when I was putting it back it said something about the same-named file already being there and it asked me whether to keep both or replace. I chose to replace it because I thought I was putting the same files I removed.

In regards to your first point about family issue being fixed. I will try it again this time since all my current gameplay has disappeared and see if it persist.
