February 20

NOTE: I do not cover creators who upload other creators’ stuff. This has become epidemic in the last few months -- yet again today, I’ve removed another creator from the list of those I cover. It’s rude to the original creators, and it’s especially bad for players, who easily will end up with duplicate and broken content. Responsible creators add links to the CC they use; they don’t repost files. I won’t encourage the use of people’s mods if they do this to other creators and you.

Also removed recently from coverage: a handful of creators who have been open somewhere about using pirated Sims packs, who have promoted using pirated packs, or who have directed people where to get them. In keeping with to EA policy (which, as someone whose actual income depends on legitimate purchases of cultural products, I 100% support), I will not cover them here. Their use of pirated packs also makes their mods less trustworthy.

New Bugfix Mods

• LittleMsSam – RBF - Public Stereo Afrobeats Missing & Channel Sync Fix – Feb 17, CF/own site – – "Normal stereos and synced lot wall stereos have their own audio configuration files. For the Afrobeats wall stereo EA added the normal audio configuration instead the one for lot wall stereos. I found the correct audio configuration in the game files, and added that so the wall stereos are synced."

NOTE: Creators (such as KiaraSims) are starting to let their mods’ users know whether Lot 51’s Core Library is now needed for their custom career mods. Not all career mods do need it, though, so don't assume a silent creator is just not telling you! And it doesn’t affect Simmers who don’t have the Royalty EP. Affected mods will still be on the Broken list for now, because they are broken for Royalty EP players if Core Library isn’t installed/updated, and especially because not all creators are going to get this news out (or are even active) and not all Simmers will see it.
