Hi all,

Thank you for your patience with me. The following mods have been updated for the most recent patch, including a handful which were re-updated tonight.

Update

Hi friends. You may have noticed that I missed the last few weekly updates and have been unresponsive on Discord and Tumblr. I hate that I'm having to write this, but I unfortunately need to step back from modding for a few weeks. I am dealing with a difficult personal situation and I need a while to be a human and not a modder.

I am hopeful that this will only be a short hiatus, and...

Sul-sul! I'm back with yet another update on how I've been spending my modding time this week.

Mod Status for Crystal Creations

Hi all - thank you for your patience as I work through updating my mods for the latest patch.  Several mods have received updates today, many others are already compatible, and a few are still in progress.

Mods Updated:

Patch Status

Hi, this has unfortunately been an insane day at work and I haven't had a chance to check my mods with the update yet. Unfortunately it seems like this update has broken many script mods, and Regency Romance, 5 Day Work Week, and any of my other mods with a script component have likely been affected. Thank you for your patience, and I will update as soon as I can.

Happy Love Day!

Sul-sul!  I have a small Love Day treat to share with you all today. 💕 In my continued effort to get better at CAS, I finished up two dresses I had started working on in December.  I hope you enjoy them! Note that these are quite a bit higher poly than my usual so use your judgement if these will work for your system.
