Game version 1.105.345 compatible
Packs such as Seasons are no longer required, but rather recommended. Some features of the mod are pack-dependent, which means if the required pack for that feature is not installed, the feature itself will be disabled.
The console is functional if City Living EP03 is installed. If not, it's mostly for decoration.
PATRON-ONLY FEATURES
Cinema Business (requires Dine Out game pack and the Basemental Venue List or Zerbu's Venue Changes): Be the owner of your own Cinema. The cinema can be managed from the phone. Please note that this is a Work-In-Progress business, so more tools to manage the business and more staff will be added in the upcoming versions.
Sims Film Festival: This is a 12h event held in Magnolia Blossom on Mondays. During the event Sims will be able to watch premiere movies before their general release, grab some swag, make friends, meet some celebrities, grab a snack at the food stands, pick up some handy items and fan t-shirts at the merch stall! Have fun and enjoy the show!
Movie Lovers Club: This Club Is For Movie Lovers. Everything About Movies. Get together to watch movies and discuss the hot movies your Sim just saw.
FEATURES
Turn On TV: Using this interaction will turn on and lock the TV on the desired movie. Other sims will not be able to change channels or turn the TV off autonomously.
Movie Premiere Holidays (Requires EP05): This feature will scan all the already installed Movies and check if any of them contains the "Premiere" tag. For each Movie found, it will create a custom Movie Premiere holiday in your Sim's calendar. During the holiday, the sim will be able to watch the premiere movie, and earn aspiration points.
Movie Night Event: You can create Movie Night events in your calendar and invite other sims to watch movies. The main goal is to have Sims watch a Movie, but there are also minor goals, in order to reach the Golden Reward. During the event, the sims will be able to talk about the event, like bragging, complaining, etc. Being social during the event also helps with reaching the Golden Reward. After the event ends (successfully), the sim gets a reward in their build-buy inventory.
Invite to Watch a Movie: Your sim will be able to invite other Sims to watch a movie with, but he/she will also get random invitations from other sims to go watch a movie at their place. After the event ends (successfully), the sim gets a reward in their build-buy inventory. You can use this feature either by using the Sim's phone or by clicking on any of the sims in your Sim Relationship Panel.
Movie Gender Preferences: Sims will discover whether they like a particular movie genre or not, after watching a movie. If they like or dislike that movie genre, they will also be able to discuss it with other sims who like or dislike the same genre. They will get a bad moodlet and their fun level will drop if they watch a movie genre they don't like. Each preference is configurable in Create-A-Sim mode too.
Settings Menu: Players will be able to disable specific features from the mod, or configure them to their needs.
Installation
Download the file below and extract its content into your Sims 4 mods directory (typically C:\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods).
Updating
Same as installing, but when asked to overwrite existing files, press Yes.
PS: Zipped files come with a structured folder and sub-folders, to make installation easier and to avoid creating duplicates. If you copy TanksMods from the zip file and paste it in your Sims 4 Mods directory, it will automatically create the main directory (TanksMods) and its sub-folders (DVDs) for you or overwrite your existing ItsMovieTime mod or movies for you (when updating)
Remember to delete localthumbcache.package and avatarcache.package in your Sims 4 directory when updating mods.
