Welcome to This Corner of The Sims.

Sul Sul! My name is Bit! I’m just one of the many simmers around the world here showing off their imagination on Tumblr. I come and go back and forth here but when I am here, I make sure I have a good time and that you have some good reads. Some of you may know me pretty well while others are just now starting to meet me. I’m open to both!

Below are links to everything I’ve made in this simblr. Some of my stories have made their way to WordPress because I have been and always will be posting adult content. It’s just the way I roll. Regardless, I hope you enjoy them!

Sims 4

Intoxication Series: Currently writing Tipsy - Based on my Second Life avatar, Saedryn. Follow Sae’s whirlwind of a life filled with drama, sex, heartbreak and romance. Because of intense adult content, many scenes will be linked to my  WordPress blog.

Intoxication Full    Tispy   

Alegria: Another work in progress, La Alegria is going to be a photo album of sorts for the Desert Paradise pairing between St Bree sim, Graceland Miles and @simatomica ‘s Emilio Mercury as they go through their lives starting off in Oasis Springs. 

Alegria

Tapatuli Tales: Stories of the fictional islands of Kotapu. The village of Sapatuli is a quiet one filled with elders, adults and youths alike. Their way of life revolves around peace and quiet but even the most quiet of places can hold chaos underneath.

Moon and Wind: Current      Chrono

Siblings and Soulmates: The journey of a family of four sisters and a family of four brothers who are destined to be with one another in one way or another in the countryside town of Goldcrest.

Current   Chrono

A Life of Flavor / Sizzling Stars: Posts regarding young chef Annaleia Huxlin and her journey of life and love with Simatomica’s Donato Ares

Leia Posts     Sizzling Stars Posts

Sims 3 / 4

St Bree Legacy: This was my DITFT legacy that I had made and the first ever I have done in the sims. Funny enough, I still haven’t gotten past generation 1 because I love them so much. I’m sure as time goes on that will change. For now I have the most recent parts in Nairi and River’s story in this simblr. The beginning is on their blog (under construction)

St. Bree Legacy  Tag

Bittersweet Life: This was a runaway teen pregnancy challenge that I have previously done. It follows the life of teenager Taurian Hale and her older soulmate, Camden Levine and their lives being young parents. I will be making a sims 4 reboot of it once I get more expansions. Just as St. Bree they have their own blog. 

The Bitter Life   The Bittersweet Life      Flavored Lives

LITTLE HELP!

Hey guys! I need some help with an issue I'm experiencing in the game. I'm trying to playtest everything before uploading my build (the Gas Station), but I'm encountering a problem when I attempt to leave the lot and go to Manage Worlds. I get stuck in an endless loading screen and have to use Task Manager to shut down the game.

I've tried everything – deleted mods, used the 50/50 method, downloaded better exceptions, but some things work while others don't. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

I'm concerned it might be related to the amount of clutter on the lot, but I'm not entirely sure. I've attempted to remove some clutter, but the problem persists.

Is this a bug or issue related to For Rent EP?

HELP!

bitzsims asked:

What kind of self-esteem does Donny have? Is it hard to keep up or is it just natural to him?

simatomica answered:

I would like to say it took him most of his 20s to really build up his self-esteem. Even being in front of the camera, selling out box office hits couldn't pull him from a low he felt. He is definitely more in touch with himself now and can appreciate the sim he has become.

It's interesting hearing how he has advanced in his self esteem journey. I can't wait to see how he keeps it up.

For Rent Pack Users: Help Needed

Hey lovelies. I just got the For Rent pack the week after Christmas and so far I'm loving it, but recently I've been getting this glitch/bug and I'm wondering if it's just the pack itself or if it's a mod that I need to check out.

Here's a quick screenshot:

For some reason this is what comes up instead of the families that live inside of it for any of the rental lots. Has anybody been through this yet? Any advice and or reblogs to pass the word along is appreciated.

Thank you!

Friendly reminder that fan-made content (fanart, fanfic, fanvids, etc) are:

  • extremely time consuming. Remember someone actually took time out of their life to create that, time they could’ve used to, idk, sleep, for example
  • entertainment you’re consuming for free. I can’t stress this enough: you’re enjoying someone else’s craft for free. You paid exactly zero money to look at/read/watch it.
  • S H A R E D  with you, not made for you. This is the most important point: someone created that, put it online and you found it. No one forced you to consume that fanwork, you C H O S E  to do it. 

Whenever you feel like leaving a mean comment, anonymous hate or make a ~clever post about how ‘lol look at all of these overused tropes every fic writer crams into their fics’ remember you’re being a dick to someone who shared their work with you. You’re not being funny, you’re not being edgy, you’re not being brave for calling something out - you’re being a dick.

Also adding that, because it is free, you don’t get the right to barge into creators’ messages to demand content. If you want something tailored just for you, be prepared to pay for it.

Keeping Lag to a Minimum...

I was chatting about a few things I do to combat lag over on discord and realised I do quite a bit of maintenance to reduce lag/load times. I decided to write em all down and before I knew it, I had a big ol' list. Here's hoping it helps!

Save/File Tips:

  • Clear your caches (located in the same spot as your mod folder fyi) I usually delete the onlinethumbnailcache, avatarcache and localthumbcache caches every time I exit the game, the main one to delete regularly is the localthumbcache file, they're just temporary files but it can get pretty big after a while.. if you're having any mod issues, particularly ui ones, it's always worth deleting that to see if it helps.
  • Remove any saves you're not using from your saves folder, and keep an eye on save file sizes. In my experience, any saves over around 30-40mb start to get a bit laggy. Things that bump this size up are the amount of townies in game and the amount of lots/objects in the world.
  • Regarding the above point, I regularly bulldoze lots I don't need anymore, just to save the game from having to cope with extra shit to load in the background and reduce save file bloat.
  • Similarly, I delete a lot of unnecessary townies. Also, try to keep the amount of outfits on townies to a minimum, ain't no townie need four swimsuit outfits, the game will thank you..
  • If you have cheats enabled you can usually shift-click/delete object on things like random coffee cups or stray cupcakes sims foolishly drop around the world (or eat em.. whatever tickles ur pickle) just get rid!
  • Whilst we're keeping objects in game to a minimum.. I try to clear sims inventories now and then, including townies. You can do this via mccc even if you're not currently playing that household by heading to MC Cleaner -> Sell Sim Inventory/Sell Household Inventory. RANDOM LUMPS OF CLAY BEGONE!
  • Think of a save file like a lot.. the more objects in it, the laggier it gets! Try your best to remove anything or anyone unnecessary where you can.
  • Hit "Save As" instead of "Save" now and then - the more you overwrite a save, the more chance it has of going wonky, treat your game to a fresh one now and then and remove the old one from your saves folder (maybe don't delete it right away in case you wanna roll back, keep it somewhere safe).
  • If you can (although ik it can be a pain) set up a new/fresh save, you'd be surprised how bogged down old ones can get! For legacy players, it's usually best to do this whenever you have a small family to save yourself some pain, since you can just save the household and take em to a new save (you will lose sims inventories/household inventories/relationships with sims outside the household tho so beware! Pictures/other collectables can be saved to a lot however, and you can always cheat back relationship bits etc.. bit of a last resort but new saves are shiny and fast!)
  • Make sure your Screenshots/Video folders are empty - move em somewhere else, it works, trust me. If you have a lot of custom music installed try n' clear some of those out too.. the smaller that Sims 4 directory is, the better.
  • Delete any last exceptions/last crashes (same spot as your mod folder again) you don't need em unless you're planning to upload em somewhere for help.

Settings Etc:

  • If you get a bad lag spike, opening the main menu and/or saving can randomly stop this. If it doesn't, try exiting the game, clearing your localthumbcache and restarting.
  • Clearing all notifications from the game panel can also help.
  • If you can, close all other apps and background apps you don't need whilst playing, ts4 is super memory hungry so it can definitely help.
  • The GraphicsRules Override file by Simp4Sims can reduce lag/latency and make your game look a little better in the process!
  • Srslysims Simulation Lag Fix mod can help reduce lag too (if you've altered the game speed via mccc tho, don't use this unless you plan on resetting it to default).
  • If you aren't keen on, or barely use a pack, consider disabling it.
  • Not ideal, especially for those of us taking screenshots, but lowering the graphics settings whilst playing definitely helps.
  • If you use re/g-shade, consider switching it off whilst playing and only turn it on for screenshots.
  • A clean and tidy pc/laptop runs better in general. Remove anything you're not using/don't need anymore to free up space, remove temp files, clean up your folders now and again etc etc.. especially that dreaded mod folder, speaking of...

Managing Mods:

  • SORT OUT YOUR MODS FOLDER FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.. skdsjdjs it doesn't have to be immaculate but at the very least try n' clear it out now n' then. Also try to separate your script mods/overrides from the rest, patch days don't need to be so stressful ;-;
  • Personally, I don't merge my mods; if something breaks it's much harder to pinpoint! It makes it easier to find/delete specific mods too.. and let's face it, there's usually one or two items in that set you could do without lmaooo.. also, don't think it helps much tbh! Yeah you could say the game doesn't have to work as hard to load merged files but that's debatable, it's still the same amount of items/polys at the end of the day ¯\(°_o)/¯
  • If you like merging files and/or see results from doing so, you can merge stuff you definitely know you're never getting rid of, especially CAS/BB stuff.. but steer clear of merging gameplay/script mods! If a merged file seems to be the culprit when using the 50/50 method, try unmerging it and 50/50ing it again! You might not need to get rid of everything if something's borked.
  • Bulk Rename Utility can be used to remove all spaces and special characters from your mod files, the game doesn't particularly like loading those so it'll thank you.
  • The Sims 4 Mod Manager is a great way to sort through your mods, you can easily see, move and delete files from here (not great for build/buy, poses etc as thumbnails are usually missing, but great for CAS stuff). An extra hint with this that I've noticed is that if any of my mods get renamed with [D1] at the beginning after looking through them via the mod manager, it means it's a duplicate file so you can get rid.
  • I also use the Sims 4 Tray Importer to help me sort through mods. Simply save a sim/lot with any cc you don't want and find it in the importer, you can then go through all the cc in the cc tab and delete/sort it (I also use this to sort cc if a bunch has the wrong tags etc, makes it easier to find in my folders by saving em to a lot or w/e - it also spots duplicates which is handy).
  • It's a ballache, but the 50/50 method is tried and tested if you're having issues.
  • I like to keep an abandoned cc folder tucked away somewhere, that way you can remove mods willy nilly without stressing about losing them. If you change your mind, you can always grab it back!

After taking longer than the sims 4 loading screen, I've decided to do it⟢

Hey, welcome to my new simblr. Been playing the sims for years but really got into it when I was 14/15 when the sims 4 originally came out. Like most i've been creeping around tumblr and wanted to do this for awhile but anxiety is a bitch am I right?

I go by bittersimmer or JB (she/her), I'm in my early 20s and repping Mexican Americans and Puerto Ricans (simself above). My style of playing/making sims is maxis mix, alternative, and very storyline based. I love drama but don't want it in my real life, what better game than the sims.

This simblr will be 18+ as there will be mature content planned. (Whicked Whims and Extreme Violence users be welcome)

I plan on starting my first serious legacy, i've never been able to complete one. Hopefully I will be able to post my first youtube video soon but we'll see...

Uh, I guess this is the part where I ask you to follow or reblog? I actually haven't been an active tumblr poster since I was a young teen so this should be fun.

Okay...after a took a nap that I truly needed after last night, I decided to take a walk. I wandered around the neighborhood before somehow finding myself near the creek behind some houses including Marcus'. Just thinking about him wondering about me, made me sad.

Sae: Maybe I should just go and see him. I put him through enough.

Simblr Gratitude Day

I have been in simblr a good while and I wish that there was more than one day to celebrate people out there in the simblr community who do their best to shine some light on us. Alas there is only this day so I will shout out to those I know have given me a smile or five during my simblr journey.

@simatomica

Come on, you know you have to be first and foremost, Boothang. I'm telling ya'll this girl is the real deal when it comes to friendship in here. She is also one of the most talented simmers that I know as well.

You are kind, caring and patient, Lai. You always hype me up with my sims or my writing especially when I don't feel like nobody sees me. I know you always do. Thank you for that and thank you for being one of the bestest friends I've had here. You are awesome.

@ladybugsimblr

Lady...just...mm. *puts fist over her heart* Girl...I just have to freaking thank you. You have made time for me when I thought I was nothing but a bother to you. You talk to me and give me advice for so many things and you are such an inspiration with your creativity and your sims.

So thank you for giving this girl right here a chance and thank you for being there when I needed a friend. Know you have one in me as well.

@soulsimmin

Soul, you were a breath of fresh air when I needed it. I realized that you were ginuinely liking the content that I made and that made me feel like I was seen. You didn't have to contribute the time to do it- you could have just liked and went on your way but you went the extra mile to comment and that make my heart so happy.

Not only that, you have such a talent with your own sims that I can't help but admire with my whole heart. We're both doing our school thang so I'm glad we can relate with that but you are just an excellent person. Please keep up the good work and I hope we can continue to be good simblr friends for years to come.

Now, I know there are others out there who are like me: not exactly in the spotlight but having fun regardless. For those people, keep on doing what you're doing. The point of this game is for us to have fun and be creative.

You're doing a great job of that.

Happy Simblr Gratitude Day!
