Today's Patch Update and My Main Menus
🕑 Added 2025-01-29 05:40:27 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
After today's patch update, there was another change made to the main menu screen. Apparently, the main menu will change based on events happening at the time in game; in other words, EA has control of what the background will be.
Of course, this update affected my main menu overrides. I'm going to be looking into this and will get back to you all when I can, with a solution to possibly fix this.
If you want a temporary fix, my main menu overrides will work with LunarBrtiney's 2025 Main Menu Readjusted which gives back some control over the menu screen. HOWEVER, with this mod the household and ads will still appear on the screen.
Hopefully, I can find a more permanent workaround so that I do not have to keep repairing these menus after small patch/ event updates. (I'm a bit over it, honestly lol)
Alternative:
SimMattically's Refreshed Main Menu, which I often use is still compatible, so I recommend that if you want a beautiful replacement main menu. Check out his Patreon HERE.
Thank you all for your patience. We'll talk soon,
elle

The whole point of sims is CUSTOM experiences, can't believe EA is so aggressively trying to stop us adjusting our "main menu" experience. Thank you for fighting the good fight.

Hi! Thank you so much for the tutorials and mods! Unfortunately, the menu screen replacements donโt work with this mod. What am I doing wrong? (LunarBritney_2025MainMenuAdjusted.zip)

I JUST learnt how to make my own main menus (tysm for the tutorial), and they go and mess everything up ๐ข haven't they been listening, we do not like THEIR main menu. I really hope you can figure out how to fix this, thank you again ๐

Hi there! I use your Ghibli override. If you install your preferred version of this mod (https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=688934) it disables the main menu image from updating to new images, which means main menu mods that edited the default image (like yours) will continue to function. All credit to Waffle from Waffle's Mix-Ins for finding a solution. Hope this helps!

Ugh, totally felt this. Deeply annoyed that they keep changing the main menu. :( Tysm for all your hard work either way girly.
