Country Club: Debutante Ball
🕑 Added 2024-07-14 05:33:23 +0000 UTCThe Debutante Ball feature is finally here! This version is a bit different from the previous one I made. It will still consist mostly of rabbit hole events, but this time I did more research about debutante balls, how they work, and what makes them unique compared to other balls.
Introducing the Debutante Ball mod! You do need the Country Club Mod to use this mod.
How does this mod work?
Your Sim needs to be a member of the Cedar Creek Country Club and a teenager.
If these requirements are met, you can use your computer to apply to be a debutante ball participant. All of the interactions are located in the Country Club Pie Menu, under Debutante Ball. This is just a formality; all members will generally be invited to apply.
There are three requirements to be able to go through with the application though:
Written Approval from Parent/Guardian: Your parent/guardian can use the computer to write an approval for you. Once this step is complete, it will be greyed out.
Interview with Program Director: Your Sim will have a thirty-minute to one-hour phone call with the program director to get to know the applicant.
Debutante Committee Subscription/Donation: Your Sim will pay $3,750 as a contribution to the Debutante Ball Committee.
Once you have completed all of the steps, your Sim can submit the application. They will receive a call a few hours later, letting them know they have been invited to participate in the ball. If you do not receive a call, check the computer; you might have missed the call, but the invite was still received.
Once your Sim has been invited to apply, they better get started with the prep! It is long and requires a lot of work, especially if you want the best possible outcome for the ball.
There are a few activities the debutante is expected to participate in to prepare. They are not mandatory but are highly recommended. These activities are also TIMED, so if you don't attend during the specified time, you will miss them.
There are two versions of this mod: a long version and a short version. I created this mod with the long version in mind. Based on my research, preparation for debutante balls takes a lot of time. I wanted this to be a "year-long" event. Each week, your Sim will have some activities they should partake in before the final event.
This means that once your Sim is invited to participate in the ball, they have about a week to partake in that week's activities. These activities will no longer be available after a week, and new activities will be available for your Sim. I hope it doesn't sound too complicated, but once you play, it will be pretty simple.
For those of you who do not play long games, there is a short version. The short version has 3-day intervals, so you have less time for activities, but the event will happen faster.
Week 1
First Dance Rehearsal
First Etiquette Class
Week 2

Week 3

Attend Ball
There are also a few social interactions available. You can find them under the Debutante Ball pie menu category.
Debutantes are usually accompanied by an escort. You can ask any Sim to be your escort, whether romantically or platonically.
You also have the opportunity to invite any Sim. When sending out the invites, make sure to include your escort. Regular tables allow for four seats, but your Sim can purchase a larger table with six additional seats, allowing your Sim to attend the ball with a total of ten guests.
Once you are in the fourth week you do need to make sure you complete the events before time runs out because the interactions will dissapear.
A couple of buffs from the mod.
There are a lot more buffs. I could not screenshot all of them!
If your sim performs exceptionally well at the ball, they have the chance to win a few awards. Depending on skills, traits, and life skills, they can win different awards.
Debutante of the Year: Award for the debutante who performed exceptionally well.
Best Dressed: Award for the debutante with the best gown.
Most Graceful: Award for the most graceful dancer.
Your sim will earn the Debutante Trait after the ball. This will give a boost in a lot of things in life. Include social skills. They will also be able to talk to current Debutantes by giving them advice.
Important
The long version's "Attend Ball" event is only available from Friday to Saturday.
Both the long and short versions start at 4 PM and last for 5 hours.
If you want to go the extra mile with planning. Your sim can book extra lessons, which will increase their charisma and manners. It can also be helpful for more prep if your sim missed certain activities. (Also helps towards winning Deb of the Year Award)
The final gown rehearsal will bring your Sim into CAS. You can use this opportunity to edit your Sim's formal outfit for the event.
That is all I can think of for now. The mod is pretty streamlined though so it should be pretty easy to use. Let me know if you have questions.
Does this mod require any DLC?
No, it does not.
What else do I need for the mod?
Country Club Mod: Here
Lumpinou's Mood Pack Mod, so it is required for the mod to work properly.
You can get the mod here.
If you already have it great! But make sure it's up to date. Otherwise, it will break the UI
I'm experiencing some weird bugs!
Let me know, please.
