Modding: What it means in The Sims 4
Everything the community makes is astounding to us, super inspiring, and it is interesting to see what people come up with. Please continue doing it as we want to be able to encourage and foster that creativity because it’s so important to what The Sims means to everyone.

We cannot officially support and screen everything that comes out, so it is very important to us that we set up a good foundation that can help the community manage what they’re creating, and communicate to other people how to responsibly get involved in the modding and creating community.




What to expect in The Sims 4
• Directory for Mods in the user data folder.

• Custom Content Technology Document with data formats that will help creators avoid conflict with what has been done in the game. This document will be expanded on as we go along.

• Dedicated Modding Section section on The Sims 4 Official Forums for feedback, discussion, and issues.

• Game options panel contains section for mods. (Script and Non-Script)




Q&A Session
• H Gender species and sub-types included in the data format with some of them defined

• Sims 4 coding written in Python

• Package files will not attach to creations when uploaded

• The .ini file will be available to everyone just like it is in The Sims 3

Ugh, those "emotions" really seem to be waste of time, something you'll watch once and then skip over. Build mode, neighbourhood and UI changes are nice but other than that I'm not impressed.

The open world in sims 3 was really cool. I had one sim who was a bum and didn't own a house, just an empty home lot. Instead he lived in a tent in the park, using public toilets and mooching off picnic baskets for food. Occasionally he would camp out in people's gardens. Good fun. Doesn't sound like that will be possible in sims 4.

On the other hand the open world was probably the main reason why sims 3 was so glitchy and slow, especially with a lot of expansions installed. So I can understand why they decided to take it out.

Wow that "weirder" ad was pretty depressing. However every base game in this franchise sucks so I'm still hopeful there'll be something decent in 2-3 years. If not, it'll just be another Sims 3.

I like how they put a fat girl in it to suggest that there's nothing wrong with being fat.

Well if their world is inspired by USA it would look like Kwa is filled with fat chicks and hipsters, which is pretty spot on.

Aren't the Sims games all prequels of one another, carefully telling a story of a society that becomes more and more authorative and oppressive with every game?

Thumbnail suggested a video like that one Rock movie that's a remake of an older movie where he beats everyone up with a piece of wood.

It's not.
