I loathe how EA managed leaf disposal in TS3... chiefly in that they don't and it's left up to the player on EVERY SINGLE LOT!!! So I've disabled autumn completely to avoid my neighborhood becoming leaf-covered year round.

With this mod, though, I might stand a chance of seeing the beautiful colors and awesome holidays of one of my favorite seasons again. Thanks~!

Thanks! Raking leaves was fun at first but then it became tedious so the faster it's done the better.

I hate this too. it did disappear at first when Winter came but since the last few patches it stopped.

Great idea! I can't wait to try it out. I got so tired of raking leaves that I replaced all of my trees with pines or something else that doesn't lose it's leaves. I like the fall season in the game (I love Halloween), so instead of getting rid of the season, I changed the trees. But now, I can have my pretty trees back...thank you so much!

Now I can do something more constructive than pulling my hair while yelling "rake faster!!!". Thank you.

edit: Oops, this is a Sims3 mod. Still glad you made it. I'll look for a Sims2 one, sure there's one somewhere.

Patch 1.63 was released 17 Oct 13, it updates nearly 1000 xml and itun resources from GamePlayData, Most if not all Tuning Mods WILL NOT work with patch 1.63 and will require updating.

Any ideas when this might get updated for 1.63? Seriously, I'm considering disabling Fall without being able to scoop up all the dang leaves.

I have no idea. . . o.o

Patch 1.63 does not appear to have changed anything in this xml, so it should continue to work with 1.63

Yay! Thank you much! After your previous announcement, I was afraid there would be a long wait before I could use my favorite mods, including this one.

I have no idea. . . o.o

I love this mod but will it work with patch 1.66?

#21 Old 28th Jan 2014 at 2:01 AM
Ahhh, so much better to rake leaves faster. It just took too long for me. xD Lol! I wonder, though, will this work for patch 1.67?

OMG Thank you~! I've loathed autumn seasons because of the stupid leaves that I've started deleting any trees in my lot. Now I can enjoy the trees and manage to get the work done in a fraction of the time~!
