The Sims 4 - Train Window Animated Loading Screen
What's your destination?
____________
Hey everyone!
Back in 2019, I created a short in-game clip, which marked the beginning of my journey as SimMattically.
____________
Today, I bring you something really special – a loading screen inspired by that clip.
But that's not all. It's coming straight from my lab of modding experiments. I made this loading screen fully animated, with a moving landscape behind the window and a slight up-and-down movement of the camera (well, it is a train after all!).
____________
It dynamically adapts to different resolutions, so no matter what screen you play on, it will never look stretched.
I tested it thoroughly, but if there are any issues, please let me know!
____________
Changelog:
October 23, 2024 - Updated the plumbob version for patch 1.110.265.
July 25, 2024 - Fixed the script so it won't cause UI Exception Report anymore.
July 14, 2024 - An alternative version without the plumbob in the lower corner has been added.

Hi did you think about making a main menu matching
is this one still compatible? i cant live without this
Loading screens don’t usually break with updates.
Is this updated?
This mod seems to be making 'the house icon going all weird (blue boxes) when you're placing down a lot in manage worlds, someone else seemed to have the same issue with your - cars - animated loading screen. Don't know if it's also happening with other animated loading screens..
Doesn't seem to be causing any other problems though, just the house icon.
tus mods son realmente increibles:,)
Thank you so much. This is the first time I've done mods and it's so exciting! Happy to subscribe to support you!
Hello! I love what you do! I'm a FAN!! I have a tricky question, but I don't know where to post it. I'm also a beginner loading screen wallpaper creator, and I'm looking for a mod to remove the plumbob on loading screens. If I like it, could you guide me... thanks in advance. If you have a Discord channel to chat on, I'd be happy to join. I'm French and I use Google Translate; my English is very bad!
Hi! this loading screen is my favorite but is there any way you could make it compatible with ultra wide displays? it cuts off on mine
Oh man I wish i could have the cars and the train XD
Love your creations! May I know is this compatible with the latest update?
i just downloaded this. It seems to be working just fine so far !
j adore cet écran de chargement malheureusement j'ai du le retiré un refrech de cet écran serait top car il me crée des last exception depuis la mise a jour ea
Hey just wanted to make sure you were aware that the plumbob for this loading screen, your Dynamic Clouds loading screen, and the refreshed loading screen were all broken in the update 2 days ago
Thank you for letting me know, but all of these mods were updated yesterday already.
i love this, thank you!
This is my absolute favorite loading screen I've ever had! It doesn't feel so much like I'm waiting for my game to load, it feels more like I'm on my way to my destination in a train and it makes my brain so much less impatient because it feels like I'm moving forward instead of standing still if that makes any sense lol. Thank you so much for your amazing work!
Also, would you ever consider doing an interior car view on a moving road in a similar style as this one?
hi i love your job but i have all time a last exception for the loadingsrenn train and the refreshmain menu i don t understand why but can you do a update becase i love your train and other thanks
All my supported mods are updated to the latest version, so they should be working fine. If you get a better exception report, feel free to send it my way and I’ll take a look to try and help. But most likely, the issue is on your end.
I really love your mod, it's my favorite! However, I noticed it causes a lastUIException. Although it doesn't affect usage, do you know what might be causing this? I tested it with only this mod installed, using the file "SimMattically_LoadingScreen_Train_NoPlumbob".
I will check it. I’m surprised, because I’ve tested the mod many times and it was fine. Can you make sure to also delete your local thumbnail cache and check again?
Totally loving it! ♥
is it possible to combine the plumbob (with or without the rays -- without might even work better with animation?) from Reimagined Custom Loading Screen with this? i LOVE both and i simply cannot pick.
Yes, technically it is possible, but since my Plumbob is completely custom and not just an override like the other Plumbob replacements out there, it would require additional work. I will look into it, but it will take some time!
Absolutely beautiful. Saw you on X and thought I would check out your work and omg I had to join your patreon. ♥
Thank you for your support!
This is neat! Any plans to add a day/night dynamic effect like your other loading screen mod?
It did cross my mind! I most likely will!
