Mineral Town Challenge 014

So we now start our weeks on Sundays. Have I mentioned that I hate Seasons? (I told my husband this and he thought I was talking about real life, so yeah. I hate it in real life too. I only like cloudy days and Autumn.)

After the morning farming, I was invited to a flea market, so why not. I have to do the house 3rd (and final) upgrade anyway. I knew I needed a couch, and a new chair. So here's the chair I bought! Luckily, the couch (no longed pictured) was the same type!! 

Then later in the afternoon, Kai just showed up at my lot, and of course I let him in. It's not against the challenge rules. 😁 He presented himself in like this. 😆 I had to snap a photo!

So Clair woke up at 12:48AM and started tending to the farm, I guess she just couldn't sleep anymore. She went to the Oreo and Choco and there were no "harvest dairy" options -- weird. I've updated KS's My first farm animals mod already, so I went in the re-updated, and went into CAS fulleditmode -- well, there's the problem! My farmer trait and the calves' dairy traits were missing. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Clair's going to just have cake for breakfast. Where did she get this cake?!

Also, I am trying to re-learn all my settings from last year, and was not able to use "headlineeffects off" right before this picture. 

I'm re-linking the rules of this Challenge. Whew. (Can't we just start playing? No.) I tweaked some General Rules from when I started because there were packs I didn't own. Now that I have both Seasons and Cats and Dogs, I have to play by those Seasonal Harvest Moon Rivals Challenge Rules as well as the Seasonal Mineral Town Challenge Rules. Maybe I should just restart? 😵 Nah.

Continuing on this "Mineral Town Challenge" pretending I never took a WHOLE YEAR's break from it. 💀💀💀 First and foremost, I have spent 3-4 days now updating my Sims 4 and Mods, and trying to find these broken CC that keeps giving me error 132, and 140. 😠 I was super close to deleting ALL of my CCs and starting over -- but hey! I could definitely have started from scratch like trashing all the other saves would be fine but I could not let go of my Mineral Town. 😭😭😭 I spent too much work on that (just tweaking, because if you remember, Briar Rosethorn in Sims Community on FB (also Snarky Witch on EA Gallery) is the one who re-created this entire Harvest Moon: Mineral Town including the townies in Sims 4. It was not me. I just happen to stumble upon it, and got obsessed. 

After the working on the updates, going through Sims Mod Conflict Detector, and the manual CC transfer in and out of the Sims 4 Mods folder -- finally, I can continue!! It looks like error 140 got fixed somehow as well. I'm not going to ask questions, I'm just going to say THANK YOU.

The last blog post was up until Monday (end of Week 4), but it so happens that while I was trying to fix my save, Choco Brown got sick. 

I had to rush and build a quick vet clinic (because some update from Aug 2020 - May 2021 put a vet career in Sims 4), so I quickly had to that instead of the "Live in Business VET" from LittleMissSam.

Anyway, I did lose a day and a half, so we're not starting on a Wednesday (in-game) at 3:30pm. But my "cows" are both healthy again!

Here's Oreo Cow just to make an appearance.

For a more valuable Sms 4 game news! We are getting an ACTUAL FARMING Expansion Pack!!! This is really why I restarted my Mineral Town Challenge (aside from the fact that I just wanted to play Sims because it's Summer Break, woot!).

CLICK HERE to view the details.

Also, if you're interested in a "free" Modder-made Expansion Pack here's another Farming one!
Check out Arnie's Patreon.

To be completely honest with you, this one probably will have more features than the EA one, but it may crash when the EA updates come in for Cottage Living. I don't know. Arnie has done a wonderful job with this Mod Expansion! It will be out June 25 for patreon's and free after 2 weeks. 

Then Cottage Living will be out July 22nd! Try Sis 4 Farmland anyway?

I will play a full week on Mineral Town Challenge and then post 013 update. XD
