[Misc. + Law&Disorder] Some general info :)

Hello everyone, and thanks for being here!

I just wanted to give you a little update.

Some of this was mentioned before, but it has been a while, so let me sum up again the plans for the next months.


The big stuff that’s on the menu is:

About that last point:

I took from the answers to my post of a month or two ago, about what you all recalled in game that could fit the bill for getting Sims in a little bit of trouble. Then I thought about how I could go about keeping track of these things, and those that I think I can, I kept. Then I started making some stuff about it, at snail pace.

These are the activities / categories that I want to be tracked, be able to file complaints about or be caught and get in trouble for.

NOTE these menus are still NON-functional at the moment, Sims' actions etc are NOT tracked up yet, I have just made some of the markers I need, and can give them arbitrarily, but their consequences and triggers aren't made yet - this mod is still VERY far from functional in all its aspects. Just so you don't get your hopes up or your impatience activated.

Note 2: remember, this mod is going for a "Maxis-Match" tone. It isn't going to be deadly serious. It likely could be a little more serious than shown below in the end, though. I'll see and adjust as I go.

-Note 3: I do intend for this mod to be customizable in various ways.

-Note 4: gameplay should have not only getting in trouble and getting others in trouble, but also some special lot traits, community service and outreach and other such. 

But once again, I don't want to make this a hyper-realistic work at all. No matter who you ask, just about everyone agrees that justice systems can be very flawed; I'm not here to represent any existing reality.
  I just think it could be a fun addition to the game to have Sims take each other to court over silly things they do, face Sim-like and Sim-appropriate consequences, and have Sims try to wipe that away from their history with other actions. Something of that vibe.
  Some aspects may sound a bit more real (if a baby is vanished away by the sim-cps, adoption through RPO for that same sim may be more likely to fail, for example), but overall I'm not feeling the hyper-realism vibe on that one.


These are the current thoughts about that project; let me know what you think / what you want, etc. Once again, please don't get too impatient please as my work speed is reduced to near nothing at this very moment, due to the crucial requirement of letting my hands heal :/


Thanks again everyone,
Lumpinou

Hi, cops not showing up is related to an EA bug, you can read about it and a fix here https://www.patreon.com/posts/mod-approximate-140945149

Hey, thank you the law and order mod is now popping up. I did not know I needed a toolbox for it so when I downloaded the toolbox, the Law and order mod popped up for me. Only thing is the cops never showed up so maybe that is a bug I’m not sure though

amber kaiser

Hi, can only be an installation problem, check that you have the latest version of Toolbox and both the package and script for L&D

Lumpinou

hi the law and order menu is not popping up for me how come i just installed the mod

amber kaiser

Hopefully we get in trouble if are sims are nude out side the house

megan

Tom and Tina Peepers (from WW)! I use Sac's EV and employ non deadly blows (not on Tina) but it would be so cool if they could go to the lockup for a week lol.

Jibriyl Almuniyr

Would actions like giving another sim poorly-made pufferfish or pranking a sim with the stink bombs count as committing a crime, since it can lead to death?

Perfect Cyan

Can u please add a system where u can sue anyone for anything

Mythoughtscreation

Hello! I am working on a Law and Order type of let's play and would love this. Just checking in to see if this is available. I NEED it take my money lol take all the time you need

Ivory Snow

i personally think your the GOAT for this one bro ... they should put you in the HOF with basemental and sacrifial and even SOL ! you really on to something with this one and no matter what anybody say i feel like the sims world should replicate real life ... most of us play the sims to do things we realistically cant for the most part and mods like this brings the reality and fun to it the same way Simsrealist did when they made SNB mod ... this mod is definitely going to be one of my favs bro on God

Billy Guap

Take Care of yourself first and foremost...you can't do what you love if you don't take care of yourself. We will all still be here...Happy Halloween!!!

GoodVibes-Simmin

Thank you so much for your hard work! I hope your taking it easy

LoveMiranduh

Sounds awesome! I am really looking forward to this mod!!

Karen Titman

I can't wait for this. It's going to be awesome!

Pamela Berg

Sounds great. Can't wait to try this =)

Andrea H

Looks great so far. It's all good. Take time to heal.

Lendi Morgan

This looks great! Take all the time you need!!

Kit

love it and take all the time you need.

Patricia

LOVE IT

Anissa Whyne

Take your time Lumpinou we will still be here when you are ready and thank you so much for the mods. They have changed my gameplay so much 😊 I was curious what happened to the visitation part of it?

PassionateLibra

Make sure you look after yourself that's the main thing! This looks amazing, I'm always looking for ways to add more for shady sims to do that aren't too far into the gratuitous violence side of things. It would be cool if somewhere down the line it could have some compatibility/add on to the detective career from GTW, that thing gets really boring really quick but I have no idea if that would even be possible. Either way can't wait to see what you do with it

Ruby Tebbs

Take your time Lumpinou your health is more important than mods, get your hands right first then tackle the mods, people will have to be patient and understanding.. Your mods are well worth the wait.. I have problems with my wrists so I know how painful they can be when trying to use a computer for a long time..

Cathy T

Hope you feel better soon! <3 This mod looks AMAZING! Can't wait! :D

Alexis Schonberger

Oooooo this is going to be so gooood!!!

Dawn

Please take care of yourself! I love your mods and they are so well made, but its not worth risking your health to meet deadlines. Take your time, please! We will be patiently waiting 😊

NayaMasters

I hope the new stuff helps!!

Sheila Lobert

Take care and heal as much as you can. I really enjoy your mods, but your health is way more important! I’ll be looking forward to your Law & Disorder mod. It’ll be great for more realistic and legacy gameplay, just like your other mods have been.

Perfect Cyan

I hope your recovery is going well. Hands are super important (i have Cerebral Palsy and play drums and guitar so i get it). Would you consider a tie-in with the burglar mod with consequences for kids who pickpocket? Also had a question about the child custody part of Relationship wellness-will there be more kid/teen interactions-like an older sibling comforting the younger ones or giving advice, responses or arguing with parents (You can't enforce curfew! I don't really live with you), that sort of thing. Thanks!

Tiffany Edmonds

I really hope you have plenty of time to rest & recover first. Im so excited for this and whatever you do in the future, and will gladly wait until you're feeling better. Take care :)

GlitrOfDoom

Hope you get better soon. Love your mods. With the Law and Order mod it would be great if they could go to prison for a while. One mod I have is that a sim can take a travel internship where they go away for 1 -4 weeks for work. They are not active in that time. I'm thinking that if they went to a rabbit hole prison something like that could occur.

Aniis

Hope that you feel better soon, remember to put your health first... Take care of yourself

Nicole Dixon

You take your time and do what you need to so you can get better. Thanks for the update and take it easy 🧡

Sonotemo

I'm glad you could rest and get some equipement which help you rest your hands 🥰 thank you for informing us about what's incoming, the law and disorter mod seems so exciting ! But don't forget to rest whenever needed 😉

Kimikosoma

Obsessed with the law & order mod! Glad you’re getting your break. <3 hope things are well!

Jamie Loch

Yes all mods are fine, that patch was a tiny thing for the new kit basically, and didn't touch anything else except perhaps UI mods, of which I have none!

Lumpinou

hey Lumpinou, glad things are going well with recovery and such. I was wondering were your mods cleared for the last update? because i didnt see anything on it and i didnt use them because i wasnt sure. im missing them lol

Latesha Coleman

Oh yeah totally! Forgot to list it but yes! I also want to add some settings to it in addition to the gameplay changes

Lumpinou

Hey Lumpinou, I'm glad you're taking your well deserved break! Question: I was wondering if Open Love Life is still planning to get its feature update? I didn't notice it on the to do list so was just curious if it's postponed? Thanks.
