seasons look great but one big annoyance
when the sims are walking in the snow there is no snow traction what so ever even in the sims 2 there was deep snow and the snow covered their feet.. there are no coats or gloves..

The inclusion of the four items from the Spooky Stuff Pack was to benefit those who did not buy that pack. The team wanted to include items that would fit in with all the holidays. Now that we have custom holidays I imagine Simmers will now purchase that pack since there is a reason to have those items in the game. Might be part of the reason why pumpkins were not included in Seasons. There is a pumpkin carving station in the Spooky Stuff Pack. And with the talk about a farming pack flying about, perhaps pumpkin patches will make an appearance after all. And there are at least two mods for that if one wants a pumpkin patch now.
I am wondering if white terrain paint might help with the issue of snow not showing on the ground around the base of houses. If that is an immersion breaker for some Simmers a mod like fake snow might be a solution. At least it will look a bit nicer. There are many terrain paints around that give the illusion of snow. It's something I am going to try because I intend to take a lot of screenshots of my Sims playing in the snow and I would like to not see green where there should be white. But as far as it being an immersion breaker? Not so much. Yes, I would have preferred deeper snow but there is so much else going on in this EP I am not going to dwell on that issue.
Until I play Seasons I won't know exactly what else is happening so I am not going to wonder about the rain not showing when it hits the puddles in the streets or on the swimming and toddler pools. With the new glass roofs, I may enclose my pools so my Sims won't freeze while fitness skilling. A New Years Day pool party in my Sims future? It is a possibility. LOL
Today was a very busy day so I have not played since the new patch was released. I am planning to pull my game mods until I find out which ones need to be updated. I have a feeling about ten of the ones I use will not be working. That was a very large patch with a lot of changes. And within a day or so we will have seasons for our Sims. Life is good. :)
