Play Chess on Computers and Tablets!

I know playing chess is a great way to improve logic skills in the game but word on the street is that they aren't pretty and a pain to place in game. Someone mentioned that Sims 3 had the option to play chess on a computer so I wanted to recreate that in Sims 4!

My initial goal was to add an additional option to play chess on tablets and computers. However, the best way for me to implement this without scripts/requiring additional mods and also be compatible with MCCC etc. was to override the BicBlock game for computers and tablets. But this means less files/upkeep for you and also should work with all custom CC computers and mods like MCCC!

I created custom videos for when your sim is playing chess! The chess pieces actually move on the screen as they play. Similar to the chess table, this increases the logic skill and also adds a focused moodlet from playing.

After reaching certain levels in the logic skill, your sim can use the computer to compete in tournaments and win some simoleons! They can also stream their gameplay and play against other sims. These options are on the computer only.

PS: Again, just want to mention this is an override that will replace the BlicBlock (aka tetris) game on tablets and computers. If you are attached to that game, you will not want to install this!

we needed this!!

Hey, is it possible to disable autonomus use of this interaction? I love this mod, but it's annoying when my sim was supposed to sleep or cook and when I look away, they interrupt that stuff and go play chess on the computer XD

Yay!! That makes me so happy! I was unsure what to do to fix it πŸ€ͺ yay!! So all working now? Thanks for following up!

I wanted to post here as a follow up in case anyone sees my earlier posts. The problem was entirely mine. I thought I had the latest patch/update, but did not. Once it was installed, everything worked fine.

I will have to say, though, that I have never used Discord for anything but in game chatting with my husband (not The Sims). I don't know much about how it works.

LeAnna

I just linked your server to my Discord. It's easier to catch up with me in the evenings, but I'll watch for you there whenever I can.

LeAnna

are you on discord? it would be easier to chat with you there to troubleshoot :) the logic part shouldnt be the issue, the only logic restrictions are entering tournaments

RAVASHEEN

I can't seem to get my Sim to play chess on the computer or the tablet. Is it because she doesn't have enough logic points yet? When I click on the computer, the play chess option is available, but when I select it, she just stands there.

LeAnna

yay!

sims 3 creators lol

RAVASHEEN

ink? and sims 3 had this, no idea why they didnt add it in the first place

RAVASHEEN

ummm maybe. ill have to look. it would probably be an override, which could cause a mod conflict

RAVASHEEN

Thank you! I love this option!!!! :)

This is the kind of mod that makes the game even more fun, IMO!

fantastic! thank you so much

Larke Lockhart

Very awesome!! Is there any chance we might maybe possibly somehow get "read ebooks" added to Sims' cellphones...?

Elaine Db

Such a great idea. Omg who would have thought.

AMAZING! I hate that the chess board is so big and I don't always have room for it, especially in apartments. This is game changing!
