THIS REQUIRES THE SIMS 4: BASE GAME

This is an All-in-One ARCHIVE containing all of my "FOMO Unlocks".

Each "FOMO Unlock" contained within unlocks all Live Event Rewards for the corresponding Live Event whether or not you started or completed the Live Event. Cheers!

Included in the All-in-One ARCHIVE are individual overrides for the following Live Events:
  • Happy At Home
  • Reaper's Rewards
  • Cozy Celebrations
  • Blast From The Past

LIVE EVENT COMPATIBILITY & A WARNING FOR BLAST FROM THE PAST:

I fine-tune my FOMO Unlocks for "Live Event Compatibility", meaning they can remain in your Mods folder while the event is "live" and they will not interfere with event progression - all FOMO items will be unlocked, but you can still progress through the event chain and ensure the account entitlements for those items are added to your account data.

  • "Live Event Compatibility" only concerns the "Event Progress Chain".
  • "Live Event Compatibility" does not affect the event quests in Live Mode in any way.
  • If an Unlock isn't compatible, you might see broken item images, the "unlock/claim" button might not work, and/or the little "junk" items in-between the new FOMO items won't be added to your inventory when they unlock.
HOWEVER, due to some shenanigans I encountered while creating the Blast From The Past unlock, I cannot guarantee that it is "Live Event Compatible".

As long as I'm around when the Live Event starts, I will verify Live Event compatibility, but in case I'm not, I advise not keeping this in when the event starts if you intend to actually do the event. Grab whatever you want, then remove it or "disable" it by changing the file extension to .packageOFF before starting the event.

Between now and the time the event starts, it's fine to use it, and it will be fine to use after the event ends too. The warning is only concerning compatibility while the event is live, and only if you intend on actually doing the event.

FOMO MEANS "FEAR OF MISSING OUT":

EAxis is manufacturing "artificial" FOMO with these "Limited Time Live Events" that they refuse to unlock for all simmers even months after the events end. They've been trying for some time to get us to this point where it's "accepted" by the larger community.

In 2023, they tried to do "EA Play" subscription-locked content for console simmers only. It backfired.

Now we're here.

  • The only local "account-bound" rewards are those from Happy At Home.
  • If certain shenanigans occur, you will lose your "legitimately unlocked" "server-bound" rewards from the other events.
  • This is why I continue to make "FOMO Unlocks".
Happy Simming and Happy 25-Year Anniversary!
Don't look too hard at what else they've broken. Shhh!
