All Water Swimmable

I agree it shows how incomplete the games EA (nowadays) allows to be put out.

This is a mod I would download and most likely support on Patreon.

Thank you again to the modding community. You rock!

If you can swim everywhere then what’s the selling point of Island Living? I’m kidding, kind of.

I really feel this way. Not because it's a money grab but it sets Sulani apart from the other worlds. My Sims visit Sulani especially to spend a day at the beach. Hesitated to say it though and be called an apologist or defender.

I thought I read somewhere that the sims was working on making all worlds swimmable in the future?

I really wish it had a been a free update before IL. I really want my Sim to be able to swim around the Crumbling Isle in Windenburg.

They did say that, but it's been over a year since then.

They did make part of the river swimmable in Britechester.

It's pointless expecting anything from that creator. He just brags about all the things he can do on twitter and publishes absolutely nothing, then when his mods get near release day he abandons them and never mentions them again and moves onto the next thing to brag about.

I followed him for a while and gave up as nothing was being released and it was just bragging, judging by what I've seen posted about him since nothing has changed. Months ago he announced he had functional cars which were ready to release and everyone was excited about it and then he just completely blanked the topic as if it never happened, never mentioned it again and never released anything.

Plus, the only things he's ever made available have been locked behind a paywall since April.

Seems like his tactic is just to brag about so many things to get subscribers to his patreon and then just drag everything out as long as humanely possible so people stick around.

I get it, but that may not necessarily be true. He's released his pro build mod on the 20th of August and is coming out with new loading screens for the public next week. He's also been working on his open world mod for months now. He shows actual proof of his progress often enough.

The cars aren't fully functional yet, by the way. He does update on that still.They can currently drive on the road of his open world but I assume they're not fully done yet. I wouldn't give up so easily on a creator because of some map project he isn't done with. And besides, the maps do actually exist. So to say you should expect 'nothing' isn't entirely the truth.

This creator promised a functional open world and made videos about it. I haven't seen anyone use it yet.

Umm it’s definitely a money grab. They didn’t put the work in to get the feature in every world (like everyone wanted/expected) so they could continue to sell packs with it. Remember how they made a point to tell people University had a patch of water that Sims can swim in?? I’m not going to call you an apologist for not caring, but it’s a sleazy design choice they made with future $$$ in mind.
