Hey everyone! I've created a custom event type: Baby Shower! I thought I'd share it here, in case anyone was interested
I made the entire mod from scratch with S4S, except the strings file (which I needed S4PE for). So thankful that we're able to edit the SimData files with S4S now.
The mod is base game compatible, and will allow your pregnant Sims to throw a Baby Shower event/party
The Baby Shower event has custom goals/tasks to complete, comes with custom buff/moodlets for completing the party, and has rewards (base game objects) for bronze, silver, and gold parties.
I also have a set of deco baby shower objects which you can use to decorate your baby shower with
You can download the Baby Shower mod here, and the CC set here. I hope you guys enjoy it and let me know if you like the mod! I'm planning on making another custom party/event type next, which will be a Prom event for teens :D
(For anyone who's curious about making a custom event, I'll say this first: creating a custom event type really isn't too hard! If I can figure it out, anyone can, haha. It
is tedious, though, as there were probably anywhere from 30-40 .xml files that I had to write and edit, and if you mess up the tiniest thing, the whole mod can be ruined (this happened at least 10 times to me, probably more, lol). Because the amount of editing and stuff you have to do, I can't really see myself writing out a full tutorial anytime soon, but maybe I will in the future. Basically, custom events can be done fairly easily, but you have to know how to edit .xml files, have a good understanding of the way the tuning works for TS4, and have a WHOLE lot of patience, haha <3)
