I have some harp music that I wrote for my bard character in world of Warcraft to play using the Musician addon; how hard is it to add additional tunes to a package for an instrument for Sims 4? I'd love the Sims 4 version of my bard to be able to play his music. :-)

JaneSimsten

Hey! It's pretty easy to add new songs! I'd be happy to help if you message me with specifics :)

calaway101

does this count as an instrument for the "reach level 10 on 3 instrumentns" goal required for the musical aspiration?

DevY

Hi! hope this isn't a stupid question: do all the files go into my mods folder or do things like the songs files go into a different folder?

Frederike Schütze

Hello, I love your mods! Thank u so much for ur work <3 I have a question. After this huge patch should this mod be updatet? :)

sim lover

hi, i love your mod! i just wanted to let you know that it says not found when i press the download though

AsredKid

What is LE? Infinite loading screens?

Frederike Schütze

No it means Last exception. If you have the better exceptions mod, then it will help u find broken cc and mods

Habibi 🥰

yes it was the ballroom mod

Hello, this mod is causing a major issue with last update. I can't access any household with this mod in my game. Could it be possible to update it please?

Aine

I'm getting this LE error with the last update with the mod in the game which is not allowing me to access any household. simsten_playableharp/main.py, TypeError: add_mixer_to_snippet() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given

Hi I was wondering if it was better exceptions as it has been reportedly giving some wonky LE's lately, but I am also getting from this mod!

Hi Jane, I just double-checked and while "Play harp" is available as a small business activity, it doesn't seem to be for the employees (currently setting up a medieval tavern as a small business, with the employees functioning as bards). Would very much love to see this updated, your custom instruments bring so much new life and immersion to the game❤️

Suzi

Since the update I've been getting BE reports saying it's from the harp. It's not crashing the game, it just comes up everytime I load into a lot, if it has a harp on it or not. (I also absolutely LOVE the playable harp and was shocked by how well done it is, and just wanted to give you a heads up ❤️)

JaneSimsten

Hey! Could you send me the BE report? I'd love to check into it. Thank you!

Oliver Company

will you one day give us the ability to make a harp with woodworking?

Suzi

I'm so sorry for responding so late! I saved the file but don't know how to send it.

Hello! :) I downloaded this mod recently and am sorry to say that whenever I try to get my sims to play it, they go up to the harp, a skill bar appears above their head, but they never actually sit down to play and then after a few seconds they stop and walk away. I'm not sure if I am missing a required file, I will double check to see if that is the case. I don't believe I get any BE reports associated with the mod. I would absolutely love to keep this mod in my game. Thank you so much for creating it.

Hi, I tried to download this mod recently, and am having a problem with the items not appearing in build/buy? If I start typing "harp", it comes up with the names of the items, but when I click on it it goes to the activities/skills section but there is no actual item. Thank you for making this, I'd love any advice!

Kai

Just commenting to update that the issue I mentioned is resolved now, it was definitely a dumb user error issue lol (I have better buildbuy, and didn't realize it had reset the settings at some point and was no longer displaying cc objects. Once I changed that it shows up fine, definitely not an issue with the Harp mod itself)
