Sims 4 SURVIVE! DevLog 01 | Mod Update Progress

[@erinw.9256]

EEEEE!!! I'm so excited for the updates and the potential zombie mod!!! Survive and your royalty mod are my favorite mods by far for TS4!! My hyperfixations usually jump between medieval fantasy to zombies/apocalypses so any mods or CC that can transform my game into either of these is appreciated!!!

[@llazyneiph]

Hahah that's such a mood, mine are the same with a bit of Cyberpunk thrown in there too.

[@The_Gaming_Oracle]

@@llazyneiph literally me I'm using your cybernetix mod and Survive to create a cyberpunk, fallout, zombie apocalypse

[@Zombie6669muffin]

This mod feels like playing Fall Out it so fun and The Black Plague mod makes the Royalty mod so much harder ..always yes to zombies 😂👍

[@katofhyrule12]

I love the current edition of this mod and I cannot wait to play the next version. Is there any way that Sims can make herbal tea on the campfire? Maybe soup could be made with the same animation and object? And can children scavenge and drive a car? Thank you so much for this mod!!

[@kelzasworld]

oh yeah I have been looking for a mod where you can make soup i know icenumnum has a soup maker but it's not exactly this kinda gameplay and there's no canning mod which lets you make soup either, :)

Your mods are extraordinary! I might actually start up my game again because of you. The level of detail is stunning and exactly what I’d want for my post-apocalyptic save. I absolutely love the radiation idea. Crawl out through the fallout, Baby! Everything looks really thought out. Also, a definite Yes to zombies. I quite like the chance card idea. Maybe the success rate could be influenced by specific skills or acquired knowledge. I also wouldn’t mind the implementation of weapons as loot items. You could have scenarios like a sim with a knife in the inventory, getting a prompt to use it during a confrontation (without an actual animation), for example. I am looking forward to playing with Survive. Thank you for sharing your mods with us. The hard work is appreciated!

I had an idea for necros. I don't think typical enemies will ever work for the Sims, so that update would turn people off. However, I think you could instead make the necros "radiation vampires". A radiation vampire survives by absorbing radiation, which basically inverses how the game is played. Outside of radiation, their needs drain very quickly. I was thinking you would add a new zone which is filled with radiation, but also valuable loot. Staying there too long makes you a necro. The necro won't be able to benefit from the trader because no trader wants to travel to the radiation zone. In this way, it adds to gameplay and danger without making any players angry. You can see the current zone as the starter zone (low risk, low reward) and the necro zone as the end zone (high risk, high reward). Players who don't want supernatural enemies can just stick to the current area, so it works for everyone.

[@fae3561]

i mean, you don't really need to work with a trader if you're practically immortal, i think this would make the game too easy, it's supposed to be punishing to suffer from severe radiation damage hahaha. with this idea you could just start stacking radiation ASAP and then immediately go to high loot areas and not worry about the radiation damage at all, seems kind of like a cheese. although i think a toggle to make them benefit from radiation would be fun for alternate playstyles, but this isn't really ideal for a survival experience.

[@xxsniperkittykatxx]

​@@fae3561 you still have to worry about going feral and occults in TS4 tend to be a little OP. Maybe radiation only fills one or two needs (hunger and sleep)? I like the idea that you have to worry about needs if you go into low radiation zones.

[@grizwastheshizz]

Dude! Wow just wow! You've legit made a WHOLE NEW within The Sims. This is awesome! I can't wait to play with it

[@Sara-gd9ej]

I absolutely love this mod and would love the addition of zombies! The recent and planned updates and new features sound amazing. I am really looking forward to more of your stuff

[@15musicalfan]

Ohh awesome! I would love to use the wood planks from the scrap feature to barricade doors and windows maybe against the necros or sth! That would be cool :3

[@llazyneiph]

I've had that idea for a loooong time, but due to the way the game works, I'd probably have to edit every single door/window mesh in the game :(

[@marinacatica]

This looks amazing! Now I want to get back to my "game that shall not be named due to copyright reasons" save 😂

[@lay.drafts_542]

it looks amazing i'm playing the newest update and i cannot wait for the next update. we appreciate the dedication

[@noonenowhere877]

I never say no to more zombies. You could say I’d welcome hordes.

[@greywolfinfinity2013]

These are exciting addons to the mod.

[@dominiquegentet32]

Fabuleux ! Vous avez un talent incroyable ! 💥

[@Fairygelic]

This sounds like such a cool idea! I was wondering if the necros will sometimes spawn out of nowhere? Maybe even sometimes there will be a group or gang of necros that are just walking around waiting to kill your sims. I’m not sure if this will be possible with the sims bc the game isn’t made to spawn more than 20 sims in one lot but I’ve seen other mods (like mc command center) push those limits :)

[@llazyneiph]

I have plans to make groups of wondering feral necros! and maybe a lot trait where the lot is infested with them or something :)

[@Vanessa-pb5lr]

This is one of my favorite mods to play! I'm loving the changes and additions so far and looking forward to trying them out in my game. Thank you for all your work. You are talented and appreciated!

[@kelzasworld]

I have been waiting for a big update like this and I absolutely love it :) one suggestion for feedback ... weapons so when sims get attacked you can use a weapon like a bsseball bat or something, like Lucille lol, if you know you know, :) or having the EV mod combine with this mod, but you got nothing to worry about with copying the zombie mod, this is so very different, and honestly so much better :D

[@agenteiegaming]

for the necros you should also put a random timer on there movement so they will randomly move PS I was wanting a mod like this thanks for the dev-log otherwise i would not see it

[@wolfegaang]

Wow - this mod is a dream come true. I've been craving some zombie / survival gameplay your ideas are so cool. One idea - how about making certain skills, like fitness, improve the chances of fighting off zombie attacks? Also, tbh I feel like there should be some kind of cure, but it should be really hard to get. Maybe sims can only be cured in the early stage of the infection? You could even add a feature where they have to investigate or develop the cure themselves. Also, I get that you want to avoid copying the other zombie mod, but honestly, I wouldn’t worry too much. Sacrificial is relatively inactive these days and the zombie/survivalist genre has a lot of common themes anyway. If anything, you could even reach out to him if there was something you wanted to adapt in particular. Btw - what gshade do you use?

[@Merygalletitas]

Muchas Gracias

[@jjordan2601]

Love it....

[@leep7136]

Already looks amazinggg❤😭

[@kelzasworld]

I just thought of something for the mod so add activities for clubs but where you can add animals and toddlers. Activities like hunting. Scavaging and because we already have one for fishing 😂 You could also add weapons for hunting. There is a mod whwre you can use a gun for hunting 😂 but it be kinda cool if you added it. You have definitely got some talent with mods. One day someone will discover you and this time next year youll be a millionaire 😂 now if you get the half written quote then you totally get it haha

[@angeliquefrederickson3135]

Work with Brazenlotus mods. Amazing work, by the way. 👍

[@stefaniejudex6303]

Looks great

[@SailorEffinMoon]

I love your mods, thank-you so much! The only thing that holds me back sometimes is the initial setting up of the game. By that I mean, ALL THE DOWNLOADS lol. IE. Clothing, World Setup, Sims Roles, etc. I see you do have Worlds setup already so I was curious if maybe you could add more content along those lines (like a gamesave, maybe/links to cc we'd need) ? Ugg it feels like a lot to ask after all the work you've done already, sorry. Idk it's been a thought of mine as I just came back to playing the game recently and have been debating which of your mods I want to play with. My favorite is the Royalty Mod but the setup just feels so.... daunting. Anyways, thanks again and feel free to ignore me it was just a thought 😜

[@grizwastheshizz]

Yea, it would be cool for there to be an easy resource to download apocalyptic cc, cos it's not that easy to find online

[@llazyneiph]

I will definitely try to link some good spots for cc resources if I have time/remember! :)

[@MidnightxRosebud]

I would love a zombie mod ❤

[@WinterwolfFFM]

Will we also get the stunning old/new 50s inspired cars from the game that must not be named? 😍😇

[@llazyneiph]

Unfortunately not as I don't have time to model those :/

[@WinterwolfFFM]

@@llazyneiph such a pity I would a so adore a cc pack with "world of tommorrow" items. but I understand (i cannot begin to imagine how much work, time and dedication you already put into your creations). btw the royalty mod is a dream come true - thank you very very much ✨🤗 - my empress Annabelle I. sends her most royal greetings and regards 🎖

[@liana9104]

H! I have a problem with the mod. My Sims cant use the meat and other food of the mod. They think its spoiled and put it automatically in the trash can. At the campfire is no "survival". I cant use some Items. But I have version 1.5 from Forge, and Im trying the current version now!

[@liana9104]

Its all fixed in the new version! Im happy

[@Gabbydirectionsims]

Zombiesss !!!!!!!!!!!

[@Moonlight_Shadow7]

not sure if its mods but I can't click on my sims at all
