Ts4 Dark Mode - Tumblr Posts

The Sims 4 Dark Mode 🌃 - Chalk'd v1 [WIP]

Hey all 👋 happy to share this TS4's UI overhaul project that I've been working on for the past month or so, just in time before the end of the year! I'd also like to thank you for following along the WIP posts of this project 😊

This mod is still in progress as not all UI elements have been recolored, but you'll find the majority of them do. Enjoy! :]

Features

General Info

Most of the important UIs have been recolored, with some texts still blue.

Dialog pop-up windows are still unedited (ones that asks you to input either texts/numbers/ask you for choices).

To install:

Main mod: download and extract the folder within .zip into your Mods folder. Clear any cache files and follow the instructions under Known Conflicts if any is applicable.

Loading screen: download only one loading screen file found in the SFS folder.

Opening screen: file to replace the intro TS4 screen. Choose the file that pertains to your game language.

Mod Compatibility Tracker

Package files with the 00_ prefix are ones that overrides the same resources as other mods. You can read more below to check which mods are compatible/conflicting and what to do with those conflicting files.

// Fully Compatible ✅

UI Cheats Extension by weerbesu - original mod required

Fully compatible w/ UI Cheats Extension v1.39. To avoid any issues, keep the original mod in your mods folder (both .package and .ts4script).

Dskecht's Dark Mode UI & other color variants

Main menu mods (Minimalist Main Menu, Clean UI, Skip Main Menu, and other similar mods)

Custom loading screens - keep/remove 00_Loading screens.package

Custom wrench icons - remove others

Must remove other custom wrench mods if you wish to keep the dark mode on as the conflicting texture holds other UI elements as well.

No Map Lot Outlines by MizoreYukii - keep/remove mine

Remove 00_World Select - Header text.package if you wish to keep the NoMapLotOutlines mod. Will revert the world header info font color back to blue.

Smarter Pie Menu by TMEX - choose between versions

Pie Menu v1: conflicts with Smarter Pie Menu. Dark BG version. Pie Menu v2 - SPM_Compatible : compatible with TMEX's mod. Light BG ver. Both pie menu packages are compatible with mods that only rearrange the pie menu.

Phone icons - keep/remove mine

Remove 00_Phone icons.package if you wish to use other phone icon overrides. Mods that only rearrange the phone menu are compatible.
