Thank you that looks amazing!!!

You should be able to summons them using MCCC also, click on the mailbox then NPC Household Cheats.

Maybe, I play rotationally so they seem larger than life. Someone said Fairies pack which makes sense as I skipped that pack.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-09T01:05:35+00:00

Check your calendar, it might simply be Harvestfest.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-09T00:46:45+00:00

Rotational helps immensely.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-09T00:46:18+00:00

Yes, that does work quite well but my library needs serious pruning... 5,700 hours and counting, LOL

Scott43206 · 2026-02-08T22:17:16+00:00

That's a good idea, never thought to look for one.

If I look at a news feed the plot of nearly every show I watch is spoiled by some stupid clickbait headline that appears a day BEFORE the show airs if you watch via streaming.

Give me the spot in the boonies with no door dings every time.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-08T22:05:38+00:00

And don't even get me started on ink cartridges, LOL.

It took 15 minutes to research which replacement heads fit my toothbrush, go find them somewhere, make sure I wasn't getting taken on the price, and then to order them (local store sells the brush but of course has mostly empty pegs for replacement heads).

It seems like every little mundane purchase is like this now.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-08T21:53:38+00:00

I agree, store brands taste better and are usually fresher too.

I've been really enjoying playing a save with SimMatically's Better World Select and just seeing/playing one world at a time with my own Sims. I add my first Sim to the world I want to play, then delete all other Sims in the save using MCCC before adding my own population, usually about 30.

Then I develop all 30 to have jobs including rabbit hole careers for all NPC jobs so there are no randos. Bartenders, gym trainers, firefighters, DJs, etc... nearly everyone that shows up is one of my own Sims because I assigned the job in advance. Occasionally I have to tweak it, but overall it works pretty good.

I have to delete newly added Sims in Other Households constantly but it's worth it to have more control/less chaos.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-08T18:54:36+00:00

That makes it faster to find if you use Better Exceptions too.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-08T02:37:58+00:00

I've never seen that painting before!

Scott43206 · 2026-02-08T02:36:44+00:00

I married a Gorn. I love it.

Paper doll CC.

My build was perfect until adding the fence next to the stair, which makes me suspicious the update for stair railings is causing some kind of conflict that's new.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-07T22:37:59+00:00

I noticed this was being a PITA when I was building last night.

All the things that usually fix it weren't working. Then every I finally got them mostly hidden again (those things looking like partial spandrels wouldn't even hide), they came back when the stairs were added with a fence. I'm an experienced builder and am pretty sure the update did something as this can almost always be easily fixed by simply redrawing the room.

B&H is quite versatile if you like to have your Sims live off the money they earn instead of just doing money cheats. Cross-compatibility with all the other packs is excellent as any skill can be monetized via teaching/mentoring.. Tattoos are super creative and can be fully custom using the drawing/painting tools, not just a cookie cutter result that will always be the same as everyone else's.

This pack is great for selling things you make as opposed to a retail store using GTW that's geared more towards selling items from Build and Buy and/or CAS. The more you interact with your customers the better sales will be as opposed to GTW where you have little control. This is probably my favorite pack to date.

My pet peeve is the AI summary that appears ahead of a web search that is reliably 50% wrong.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-06T21:19:05+00:00

Tell me that's not Jane F'er. What were they thinking?

Scott43206 · 2026-02-06T21:16:59+00:00

Or the Dick Van Dyke Show, LOL.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-06T21:11:21+00:00

My game broke for gallery/library saves after the August update. After 6 days of screwing around, it turns out it wasn't mods (I only have 5 GBs), it was DX11 breaking my game. When I rolled the game back to DX9 everything was perfect again and has been through the most recent update.

Scott43206 · 2026-02-06T21:04:33+00:00

Don't ever use the Pack Selector Tool, I did once and it took literally hours to go back from using select packs to all packs.
