my laggy mess was likely a bad download as I had a near complete failure with missing a monitor! Tried a live CD and it worked well. So instead of wasting hours trying to figure it out, installed a fresh copy. Firefox is still a bit laggy but not bad. Much better and like on m y other potato. lol 20 minutes later a compete system fully updated and some key software installed. I can do this 10 times more and still be less time that a Windows install and update lol. Expecially if you add the software installation in the equations!

Not so third rate. I belive that is propaganda of the West. Keep in mind, even with choking sanctions it still managed to grow for a time. Still is managing to get materials and equipment to the front lines. Still able to mount a war and finally still holding land in a country that had basically an open checkbook for purchasing supplies to throw at it. Sure China is likely helping to a degree and as it Korea but I doubt either are contributing the tones of cash that is being contributed by USA/Europe / nato. Ukraine is getting first rate intellegence from the USA. Yet with all this. Propaganda aside, Ukraine still isn't successful after 3 years. I do agree the media in Europe are pushing a farce. However, the reason might be much more evil. With "concern" and controled panic they can further push their agenda and funnel more money to Ukraine maybe even personal. All the while the citizens will back it. the US money train that has left the station has to be made up. The military complex in Europe wants to get in the action and make record $$$ now as well. So they (Europe) will use Trump as an reason to spend double or even tripple of what they did previously on top of the support being sent to build up their forces.

I have bad news. A recent update of Firefox became a very laggy mess. It is a snap of course. So keep that in mind when you use sandboxed applications those can start to have a problem hopefully fixed with a new update. Also keep in mind you can use any destop for practically any Linux distro just have to install it. Most major distros have the major desktops in their repo. I might need to go to a Gnome desktop. I found a video capture program that works well on it that isn't available on another desktop. This is for one of my laptops that doesn't have an external monitor. The other options work... just a bit wonky and not as clean. I'd have to install a gnome desktop to access just that small program. Lots of resources used just for that program to use another desktop. It is a good opportunity to play with Manjaro. A Arch Linux spin off. Arch doesn't need to ever be updated to a new version. Has the bleeding edge software. Very useful for possible future gaming on Linux. Arch has some of the most current software for this. It is used by Linux based hand helds as well. (a version of it at least) So the software is readily avaiable way earlier than on Debian. It would potentially be more unstable and occasionally I might need to get to the command line and do some work to resolve some issues. This of course would be on my secondary old laptop or a VM.

Worse than I thought.

You did. You just didn't know it LOL

What you aren't saying is they are committing crimes against innnocent democrats. The people that they belong to (generally). That is just wild. It is one thing to attack a dealer but quite another to attack customers especially when you don't know their history. I know a democrat couple that own 2 teslas and they HATE Elon! Oh do they HATE. I can't imagine how someone resolves their HATE for Elon and still drive his cars. This couple has plenty of money to easily buy some other electric car. Sure it sucks to loose some money on the deal but ... when you HATE, you HATE. If I had that much HATE, I wouldn't care if I walked or took the bus. I"d get rid of what I HATE.

There used to be a way to use windows .dll in Linux. It is advanced but it was what was being done before Wine and other tools came along. However, you are 100% correct a VM is great use for Windoze. Use it how you want. Make a snapshot to make sure that Windoze tomfoolery won't screw you up. If it does, just restore a snapshot. Usually it is pretty quick. As I understand you can also once you set up windoze the way you want create a snapshot and then not need any virus or other software. Getting set up you can use Windoze defender. Less software needed. Less bullshit needed. Finally for those that need graphics or some other drivers and such you can pass through components to the Linux device (meaning for graphics you would have to have 2 graphics options perferably AMD for the grpahics card. less trouble) And it would respond very close to native windoze. There is even a program if it completes called looking glass that takes the output from the Windoze vm and places it directly into linux with very little lag. You get more lag from network for live gaming session than you get from this. Lots of good stuff.

I'm not sure m yself where the informaiton for the modules are but if they are anywhere they would most likley be in the Discord server that he has. As for the question about doucments and such in the folder. I havne't got a definitive answer however, I often times have some in my folders as I am too lazy to clean up the folders and likely it won't slow it down as some members have stated they have 100 = gig mod folders with little issue. finally for the package/tsscript question. Yes, I'd say you should remove both. Also remember to never h ave them more than one folder deep. Meaning sims4/mods/your mod folder/package and script. Most of the time I just extract the authors folder and drag and drop into the sims mod folder as they set it up.

I don't hold hope as well. Unless some other studio takes it over. Even then if it is a studio in the US that has been around for any amount of time, it will likely be same shit different day. Imagine if the studio that did BSG3 took it over or for that matter any studio in Asia. I would put Europe in it (CD Project Red) but... the screw up they did to releasse Cyberpunk makes me think twice.

Your game doesn't work. It works for those that followed the installation instuctions and basic Sims 4 modding processees. Your game isn't some special Unicorn. It doesn't work, = you fucked up somewhere. Go back and double check what you did. yep... Can be a major issue which you seem to ignore. Along with the entire mod description it seems. I have helped you. Posting questions that have the dam answer in mod description is a clear sign that you aren't reading and using basic common sense and sincere attempt to correct and find the answers. Answers that are already avaialble. This tells those that have more advanced understanding of what is going on, that you are a waste of time to support. I have provided support and even outright testing of mods for various games for more than 13 years. I've learned that people that can't be assed to READ can't be helped. The support person would go around and around and around for days only to find out some basic thing that the person needing support states WAS INSTALLED CORRECTLY, was fucked up. Instead come to the mod authors thread and state the mod is broke. You aren't going to get shit with that response/action. At least not here. Here we expect a minimum amount of effort which is reading and undrstanding the mod description. Along with a basic understanding on how to mod Sims 4. FYI. I will continue to tell you and anyone else that can't be bothered to read the mod description to read it. I will continue to tell those that don't seem to know the most basic process of modding and maintaining their Sims game to watch some Youtube videos on how to do this. You want to post questions? Get useful answers? Post useful, detailed questions that has information that hasn't been given in the mod description. Detailed information regarding what is happening. Can it be repeated.

Most every problem being mentioned here clearly shows that the poster doesn't read instructions and/or follow basic rules for Sims4 mod installation. That's the reason your game doesn't work. I love it (scarcasm) especally when they claim the mod is broken. Wow, the adaucity that some rando from the web has the knowlege to determine that a mod doesn't work while posting stupid question that have the answer right in the mod's authors original post. (looking at the simscommunitylab mod question) Have fun trying to figure it out without actually reading the authors OP.

Devious Desires works perfectly fine. I finally updated my game. No noticable issues for me.

Time to chang to Linux now? lol

There were some discussions regarding Thunderbird an program that you can use to manage your emails. It is cross platform meaning that you can use it in Windoze as well as Linux as well as Mac, even android I believe! The video below has information on how to transfer the emails etc. to a new computer. Eventually if you use Thunderbird you will need to properly back up and even transfer it over to another computer. Disclosure... I don't use it, at least currently so I can't properly review this video. I have seen some of his videos on other subjects and he has done a good job with those so I posted it here. I posted this here in response to some comments on the Windows Recal thread regarding how horrible Outlook is getting for those that use it. Microsoft's tomfoolery knows no bounds it appears. https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/download/ For Linux users you should be able to use the command. For Debian based Linux... Always do the steps in red first everytime you install software. What you might see when doing so. Your results might be a bit different depending on your distro! This is WAY FASTER to install by command then what most Windoze users experience When done updating and adding software do this to keep a tidy system. I just did this and got this result After this operation, 300 MB disk space will be freed. I have gotten smaller and sometimes much larger results. Never any troubles doing this following the process mentioned above.

It might be the only option with Bugthesda continuing on its current path. From what I have read it is excellent in regards to modding as well.
