those are great, thank you! do you considering making an option to leave just of them, so that they're not randomised all the time?

SimMattically

Thank you! I will think about other options. :)

RenaRe

Sooo very nice!!

edit: RESOLVED Sorry to bother you, but on my screen (2560x1440) the zoom-in effect is different than in the post: the image is becoming smaller with transparent sides. (At the start it properly fills the whole screen, it's only after the zoom-in effect starts that I have the black/transparent sides) So during most of the loading, the sides are black but toward the end, when the game is almost ready, I can see the game loaded behind the loading screen on the sides. Sorry if it's very unclear, but I don't think I can send a picture on Patreon (understandably)

Hey! I see the issue. I will work on it ASAP. Thanks for letting me know.

SimMattically

I tested it and I understand what the problem is - it happens when "Auto-scale with OS" is turned OFF in Accessibility settings. Turning this option ON should fix the problem. Try it when you have a moment and let me know if it helped. :)

Arkeran

Thanks for the quick answer, I just tested it but in my game, it was turned ON so I turned it OFF, loaded again, and then ON again only to test but I still have the same issue regardless of the option, I'm sorry!

SimMattically

Unfortunately I have no idea what is causing this. I've tested the mod with the resolution you're playing at and it works. The only problems I get are related to the UI scaling slider, when auto-scaling is turned off and/or the slider is set to the far left. I will try to improve the code, but it might be tricky.

Arkeran

My slider is in the middle of the "white part". (toward the left but not all the way, about 15% I say) Thank you so much for taking the time to look into it, it might just be a me problem so don't worry too much, if you do a static version at some point, I'll defo use it right away :D

SimMattically

I have just released an update to the mod, so please try again and let me know if this fixes the problem. ❤️

Arkeran

I just tested it and it works perfectly!! Thank you for looking into it, amazing job!

Alaric Nicolai

hi, how do I actually add these into the game? I'm new to modding and have zero clue - thank you, this is really great

Tanya Vieira

I love it, it's revolutionary! I'm going to download this anyway, is it possible to change the backgrounds depending on where you want to travel? For example, if you travel to Willow Creek, a background of Willow Creek would appear, and if you travel to Oasis Springs, a beautiful background of Oasis Springs appear. Is it possible to do a mod like that in future? I'm looking forward to more of your awesome content!

SimMattically

Thank you! As for your idea, I wish I knew how to do this! I am not even sure if it's possible.

Elethyl

I wish it was possible to have animated loading screens like that train moving instead of a slideshow or a static picture :') EA could never...

I Lov This Mod!!!!! I find myself just watching the screen enjoying the view. And at times, picking a spot and perusing it more deeply. Thanks for this!!!

Hi! I was wondering if you could tell me how you were able to move the plumbob into the corner as I want to create my own loading screens but I don't know how to remove the plumbob so I would rather it be small and not centered. If you can't tell me its all good!

MustardStang

I believe that today's patch, 1.110.265.1030 broke the plumbob for the loading screen, it's been glitching on my game.

Doreen Masgula

I'm having the same problem, and not only with SimMattically's way awesome one, but all loading screen mods I have.

SimMattically

Yeah, all the loading screens using the original plumbob are broken and need an update. Based on the changes from the patch, Maxis plans to redesign the loading screens to display images from different packs. We’ll have to see what happens to the existing loading screen design and the future of custom loading screens.

Doreen Masgula

Thanks for letting us know about that :). Should it still be OK to use the loading screens?

Joshua

HEY!!!! are you going to update the mod ????

SimMattically

The mod is now updated! And I added some new backgrounds. :)

MadSweetpeas

HEY!!!! have some dang manners.

kpopshizzle

for some reasons i cant even find it in my folder, so i cant delete the mod. my whole game is weird!!

Lavender’s Pixels

I just randomly stumbled upon your animated train loading screen and have had that in my game for a few days. Now I think I need this one. What can't you do?!

Moniq31Gamer

Hi, brilliant work. Loving my game more with this. Will you be adding more images to this from the new pack?

ShondiniSims

Idea/Suggestion - Could this be made dynamic to use with your new custom main menu background generator? If not, understandable. Your work is spectacular regardless! :)

SimMattically

This is definitely on my roadmap for the next few months!! 👀

MustardStang

This is late because I basically quit Sims 4 but I'm making a return and your mods are a must. Thank you so much for keeping these updated, the game is almost unplayable without the main menu or loading screen mods.

leoparduniverse7

i love the loading screens. but i want the loading screen tips. i love reading them when bored. and if you could change the plumbob into the new rendered version.

sims

hey i was wanting to know if you could use a plum bob override for this mod

Joshua Lodge

Yes the Modder unfortunately remove the file and i wish Modder's would stop deleting older versions of mods and just archive them instead

SimMattically

There is literally no reason to use the old file from two years ago when the new, better version exists.
