Hamptons Getaway - Bathroom Addon


Well my first foray into bathroom sets, Serenity Bathroom, was a huge learning curve. I said to myself I would not make another, but I fooled myself. I really needed a more classic/contemporary style bathroom for my colonial style homes so I had to make one. This is also another example of what I plan to do in the future: build on the basic sets I have already made if inspiration strikes. I have already done that with Atwood Dining, which is an add-on to the living room set of the same name. I am quite proud how it came out and now I have a bathroom for most occasions.

Due to the length of these posts and for ease of updating, you can find the download and info under the cut.

A few notes about this set:
  • The toilet only has one style. I rarely use the other colour options on my other toilet, so it was just sensible for me just to make white only.
  • The showers are a step beyond what i did with Serenity Bathroom, they have no floorpan so you can customise both the walls around the shower, and tiles underneath. Only one fixture colour so it matches basins.
  • Like Serenity bathroom, the double shower has a modified tub animation so your sims feet when getting in and out will briefly go through the floor. 
  • The makeup mirror can be used just like a normal mirror, but it can be blocked by other decor items so may not use usable in all scenarios.
  • To use all slots you may need to turn on moveobjects cheat
  • If you download the individual items, you need to have the Wine Glass Tealight 01 in your game for the other versions to work because the textures are linked to that package. 
  • There are 2 versions of the folded towel included in the archive; one with a slot and one without. You can only have both ingame. If you only want one, delete either the stackable or non-stackable file.
Updates:
  • 14/12/2017: updated for the C+D and 12/12/17 patch that broke some surfaces. Non-stackable towels now a unique file so you can have both versions ingame.
  • 21/01/2017: With the toddler patch breaking a few things, I have taken the opportunity and gone through and updated my sets to fix issues and generally improve on some things. Here, I have updated the makeup mirror so it doesn't give a script error, fixed typos in item names so they are easy to find, and hopefully fixes stackable towels so they don't cause issues when placing and moving/deleting them.
  • 8/7/2019: mirrors compatible with GF interactions, candles updated, added Strangerville compatibility, bathtub updated for mermaids
  • 23/11/2019 - Updated showers for new woohoo interaction. Double shower animation broke so showers needed to be remade using single shower design

  4. This set is so nice. It'd be really great, though, if you could make a tub/shower combo.

  10. Hello! I have to say I love your content. Unfortunately, it looks like maybe this shower or the Serenity shower are causing a last exception in my game? Here is a piece, "peacemakeric:doubleshower191701102016' object has no attribute 'get_focus_bone'." I'm not sure if it's only my content affected or perhaps others are having the issue? Thank you so much. If you would like details please let me know and I can send more info.

    1. Did you redownload the cc? it was updated for Island Living and the subsequent patch because of the addition of merpeople to the game. They should no longer disappear if you have the new files.

  12. Hi, I used pretty much all the items for my bathrooms but there is something wrong going on, towels keep disappearing and just ending up on Household inventory, also happens to the stones in the box thingy. My game got really laggy aswell, reduced my FPS by quite a lot, I just assumed it was because of all the custom items that I had but after removing just this set everything was back to normal, re-downloaded the glitching/lag was back so I think there is something not quite right. It all looks AMAZING tho, let me just get that out there, really love it but sadly dont work for me :( (PS: got alot of your other stuff aswell without any issues).

    1. The stackable towels can work well for some and not others. I would advise taking the stackable version out of your game. Items disappearing is a common issue with TS4 when you change flooring or walls on the lot. Nothing much can be done about that.
      Some of the items are also higher poly so if your PC is lower spec you may also run into issues

  13. Hi can you updates it for color swatches please...because i'm getting last exception...

    1. I can't help if you don't explain the exact issue you are having. Last exemptions can mean anything if i don't know what is throwing it.

  14. Is it possible to update the sink to allow brushing teeth?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. By default, these already support that feature as they are mimics of Maxis content. You must have an item overriding the tuning of sinks causing the issue. If i recall, a common one that causes the issue is an item from Max20's garden kit so I would advise you to check if you have that set and remove it to see if the problem still persists.

  15. Hey! Thanks so much for making this set. I've used it so much over the years. This might not be helpful, but I've recently run into an issue with the "PC-TS4-HG-2TileSink.package" file. My lot using this cc wouldn't load until I took it after the game (after a lot of 50/50 method trial and error). Hopefully this is enough info to go by if the issue is with the package and not my game or save file.

    1. The item is a mimic, so there is nothing unique about it to cause such an issue. I would also advise checking your mods and if they need updating. I would also advise checking the above post to see if you have that set as well, and try redownloading the item. Often times this is an isolated issue, and not something I can fix my end
