Modding Diary - Just a few more days!
🕑 Added 2022-10-02 23:20:18 +0000 UTCHi guys! The home birth update will be released in just a few more days!
This week I finalized the cuddling interaction and made a few moodlets that sims can get after doing the interaction.
Here are the moodlet for the pregnant sim:



and here are the moodlets for the partner



I also added some swatches to the birth pool and the birth pillows


Someone once asked whether you will need to use the moo cheat to raise the pillows to be at the right height and the answer is no, the pillow should sit on the bed perfectly.

This weeks I also did alot of final clean ups, I fixed a number of bugs such as midwife leaving after arriving on the lot for 2 hours, sims walking through the birth pool, duplicating moodlet for water breaking, LEs from home birth situation, LEs from broadcasters, etc.
There is still one last major issue I need to figure out, and that is how to make sims take off their bikini bottoms when giving birth on the bed or in the birth pool. If you play with WW you will know sims take off their pants automatically when using the toilet, I wanted to do something similar for the child birth mod. However upon reaching out to Turbodriver(WW creator) I soon realized it actually uses a very complicated system and its not something I can do within a few days. So Im trying to use a simpler method, if it doesn't work I will either A) make all sim wear the same pre-palnned outfit, similar to the one they wear during hospital birth, but in a bikini form, or B) make all sim give birth naked.
However this issue will not delay the release that is set for this week! So stay tuned! I am doing everything to make sure it gets released as soon as possible while having as few bugs as possible.

Okay imma need a release date so I can stop checking my email every hour panda lol
This is so exciting!!! I can't wait for the udpate :D I'll bet the twin/triplet animation will be hard to make lol.
Would making a transparent/sheer bikini bottom be possible? I have no idea what that would take to create but just a thought.

No it shouldn’t freeze from mod conflict 🤔I haven’t had any other report or freezing when doing the interactions you mentioned, but if you have a lot of mods it could certainly be the reason why
Can’t wait!!!
does anyone know if this mod has conflicts with other pregnancy mods ? cause im having issues with my game almost like freezing/stuck in animation after i try to use the ball or take a walk

Really excellent work! I was reading the last part about the underwear issue. I wonder if it might be easier to have them change instead of take off, like change into "invisible" underwear.
