HSY Miscellaneous Mods

I made a few different mods for my own purposes and decided to expand upon them to share them here.

Please carefully read the descriptions of each because they won't all work together!

All mods require HSY unless otherwise noted.

September Gift Poll

As promised, now that I'm no longer making monthly gifts Patron only, I'm now doing a poll for you to choose what you want.

Yes, I know EA changed their stance on early access, but I'm not gonna go back and forth on it and this covers my ass if they change it again.

So, which recolors do you want next month? Winner gets made, losers go into the next poll.

Unplanned HSY Mods

I mentioned it on Discord, but basically I've spent this week making myself mods to improve the clothing choices in High School Years. They're not what I usually make, but I figure I'll share them for anyone who wants them when I finish organizing them and writing up the details.

But I'm also nearly done making 2 mods for school uniforms for HSY (one requires Snowy Escape and the other is...

Bugfix: HSY Hanging Clothes

While working on a related mod I realized that the High School Years hanging clothes, while marked as dressers, are missing the tuning that would make them actually function. So you click on them and nothing happens.

So I figured, hey that's an easy fix that I can put out! Hopefully this is only a temporary fix until it gets patched but it should do the job for now. And when a real fix co...

Paywalls Revisited

Alright, I've thought about it some more and after reading a bunch of Reddit posts I'm thinking better safe than sorry and I should probably make my monthly gifts public even if you can get around paying for them.

So here's my new plan:

• Monthly posts will be public from the beginning to avoid trouble with EA
• Patrons will instead get to vote on what th...

Texture Overrides: Gender Neutral Bathrooms

Just because I have to use gendered bathrooms in public doesn't mean my sims should have to! So I've replaced the signs on several of the public restrooms.

• Added Granite Falls and Windenburg bathroom...

About Paywalls

I saw yesterday that EA officially disallowed paywalls for mods. Honestly, I think it's a great thing overall!

But here's what it means for my Patrons and others:

• I'll still release monthly Patron gifts that will release publicly after a month. I considered making them public from the start, but I think that having the Patron-only reminds people that they can donate to me if t...

"Feed Your Pets:" Water Your Plants

This functions very similarly to most of my Feed Your Pets mods so I've grouped it with them even though it's for plants and not pets. Basically it's what it sounds like. You can water your indoor plants. Children and up can water a plant and get a happy buff. Then it goes on cooldown for that sim for 20 hours (don't want to overwater your plants)

Feed Your Pets: Purchase Pet Treats

This mod is deprecated and is now part of Ilex's Pet Care

Coming Soon 7/16/22

I know major updates have been a bit slow lately, but I promise I have a couple new things coming very soon!

Water Your Plants

• Exactly what it sounds like: a simple mod to water indoor plants
• This is finished, but I need to screenshot it and I'm getting a few translations in the meantime. Expect the launch in the next few days.
