Introduction

Hey there!

My name is Fernando, but I'm also known as NANDO. I was born in the grungy 90s and I grew up with The Sims since around 2003. I'm a German Simmer but I'm mostly active in the English community as I love having international friends! I started playing the original Sims by only playing and keeping up with their stories but with The Sims 3 later on my passion for interior design and architecture grew that much, that I decided to focus on building! You might have heard from me through different plattforms as I'm doing a couple of different things and let me introduce them to you!

Builder:

First things first – I'm building houses and rooms for your Sims. I'm not only going for the usual styles but also for more creative and combined ones. What about an old castle with some modern elements? I'd build that. I like challenging myself every time.

Machinima/YouTube:

Yes, I'm running a YouTube channel! I create content like housebuilding videos and much more. I'm not only showcasing my own housebuilds, I'm also creating trailers for huge mod packs. I've created the official trailers for The Sims 4: First Snow Mod and The Sims 4: Life Is A Beach Mod.

Modder/CC-Creator:

To complete the list of all the possible things you can do in The Sims I want to present to you my third interest! As I mentioned, that I created the trailer for the Life Is A Beach Mod, that wasn't everything. I didn't just create the mod pack but also the mod itself! Yes, you hear me right! I'm the brain behind the Life Is A Beach Mod and to excite you a little more – a big, big update is planned for it!

A little preview on one of many new things coming with the GAMEPLAY UPDATE!

I love The Sims community and all of the kindness going on there! I'm regularly online on Twitter and seeing people tweeting there about their passion, which is The Sims, makes me incredibly happy! That's probably the reason, why I'm into so many different things regarding The Sims. I love to create but I love to share my creativity and creations even more! Getting positive feedback and good criticism is one of the things I'm really grateful about!

The Sims 4: Skylight Roof Pieces

Skylight Roof Pieces

Original by Cinderellimouse

Hey there. Today I have something new for you. I'm happy to present you my recolored versions of the Skylight Roof Pieces. To actually make them work, follow the instructions by Cinderellimouse on her website.

I added a lot of color options to the base objects and I put a focus on making them fit with the objects from Spa Day and Perfect Patio Stuff as those seem to be the new color scheme for future objects. In total there are 9 roof pieces with 9 color options for every single roof piece. From basic black, grey and white to a decent amount of wood-ish, browny-colors.

The Sims 4: Beach Mod 2.0

Beach Mod 2.0 has been released!

Download now!

The Sims 4: Beach Mod is a modification that changes the look of your worlds. Basically what it does is, it changes the textures. The best effect is seen in Oasis Springs - the place where all the community lots are. Whereas version 1.0 just changed some textures, version 2.0 has much more to offer.

Replaced Objects

A lot of the cactus plants and houses already have been replaced into more beach-looking plants and modern houses.

New Background

Especially in Oasis Springs you can see the result of the changed background. In the distance you can now spot skyscrapers and an ocean with some ships and boats.

New Textures

Not only the sand texture has changed but also a lot of the road textures fit the beachy theme even better!

New Trait

With the Beach Mod 2.0 a new trait joins the mod to give this back a little bit of gameplay. The new 'Relaxer' trait is the perfect trait for your Sims that only want to relax and gain a lot of skills like the Fitness or Wellness skill much faster!

Take a look at some screenshots!

Future Plans

We want to make Oasis Beach a separate world so you have much more fun. Maybe we can even make this a destination! We want to improve the designs and remove a lot of the rocks.
I also want to make the ocean usable to swim but this is just an idea.

Known Issues
None so far
