@Dreama, coolspear has retired from modding so none of the mods have been updated. 

I was going to say something else, but there really isn't much else to add. He's retired. Mods are old. Use at your own risk. :D

@MissE21I'm glad it's working in your game.

People, keep in mind that just because it's working in that game, doesn't mean that it will be ok in yours. ;)

@Aurora1410, hopefully someone who knows will be able to answer this.

Hi @KyrriRutherford! What are you trying to download? This is a patch news section. If you want a specific mod. you'll have to look through the sections, find the mod you need and then go to the top post of that post and download from there. There are also bundles. 

Let me know if I can help.

I won't delete comments because that's also in the rules. 

Hi @Lorea, coolspear has retired, so his mods will only be updated if you update them, or if someone else decides they want to take this over and do it. 

Also, our rules ask that you not bug the modders about updating.

Favorite Beatles album. Probably because it was the first album I can remember getting as a kid. And because I adore them. 

@finkl1004s2, this mod has only been updated to 1.61, so if you're fully patched, that might be the reason.

Coolspear announced his retirement a few months ago. You're welcome to update the mod if you want!!

That's fantastic! As someone who builds and loves putting objects in the strangest places, I think I might need this mod.

Thank you so much for finally spilling the beans. 

For your game. People, please keep in mind that if the mod hasn't been cleared by the creator, or someone who reads code, then you need to use this mod with caution. 

Hi @simsimmaI don't know if you actually read the part where coolspear said he was retiring or not, but he is. So maybe someone else will pick this mod up and do those things that you want done, or maybe they won't. Either way, don't count on him doing it for you. He has also suggested that people can update and change the mods themselves, so there's that too. Good luck.

I think opening a new thread in General Mods, called something like "Updates for 1.63 and beyond," and then post the links to threads where kind modders have posted updates could do the trick. What do you reckon? Whatever you think would be the best option, the best place on the site, for most folks to see latest news on any updates.

And if anyone wants to add their name on one of my old mods, or add the patch number at the end of the mod's name, whatever works for you to help distinguish it as an updated mod, it's fine with me.

Perfect!

If anyone happens to see one that we missed to add to the list, feel free to let me know.

@grumble314why did you upload the mod? You can link it instead. Just a thought but let me know. ;)

I'm still trying to figure out what the best route to show updated mods that are uploaded here.

1) People can upload them to the actual thread and then I can (or coolspear) update the main post showing that the mod is actually updated. Then a main post can be put up in the actual board.

2) I can start a thread in the TS4 mods section and they can be uploaded there. The thread here can be updated but pointing back to the post with the update.

As of right now, those are the only ideas that I can come up with. Let me know if you think of something better!!

As long as this is ok with @coolspear it's ok with me. ;)

As I said, shhhh. No more. No more bashing others, no more bashing Coolspear. It's done. I know you feel like you're sticking up for the right thing but it's more drama. Stop please.

Wow @Chfe, why in the hell would you go on like that? You've made my job pretty easy, but still. If you don't like the way that Coolspear reacts when people drag him down, then I would suggest you not be one of those people. But you did it and now I have to step in. 

Coolspear is correct in saying that the majority of us understand. EVERY damn time EA updates, it breaks his mods. Maybe not all of them, but enough for him to have to check them. Have you ever in your life modded a game? Do you know how to check code? Because if you did, maybe you'd have more compassion. I have not done these things, but I KNOW that it's a ton of work and that he does/did it because he enjoyed it. Well guess what?? The enjoyment left and every time he had to update it was another f'ing chore. We all got it except for about 5 of you. 

I wonder what makes a person thing that they can just come here and spew whatever the hell they want to. More than just coolspear reads this. As for me, I read every single post on here. Why? Partly because I'm a moderator but the other part is because we have an awesome community, except for when shit like this happens. The rules (yes, those pesky rules that I ALWAYS go on about) say not to cause drama. It's simple. Don't make a scene. 

So the next person who feels like they need to vent AT coolspear, just don't. Keep it to yourself. Write it in your diary. Tell your therapist, I don't give a flying fuck. Just don't do it here. I'm done with it. 

We love the mods that you've given us @coolspear and I know that a lot of people are using them even if you haven't patched and updated. To them, I wish them luck. To the others who have picked up your torch to either update for their own use, or to share, good for you!! Keep doing those things. 

Let's keep the good vibes going and knock it off with all of the crap.

How do I donate to the modders?

We don't have a donation area, the mods on this site are free. Thanks for thinking of them!

@MiaSkywalkerI get the same error. I'm sure coolspear will be here with an answer!! He's retired but still answering questions and participating here. 

@Astraea86, please don't jump into something that you can't jump out of. 

Everyone, take a beat and get over whatever it is that you want to say or give your two cents on. I won't just sit back and watch people bash one another. Furthermore, I don't see where ANYONE was being toxic. 

So please, stop and think before you post. That's all I'm asking. Thanks.

I figure most people are aware of that.

True, but there are those who aren't. 

And then there are those rules I keep going on about.

Since Coolspear has not updated these, everyone must use them at their own risk. Don't take anyone's word if it works, because what might work in one person's game might break the next game. 

He's not leaving! Just retiring.
