Mod List Update for May

Hi there everyone! I swear I see the word “update” so much it doesn’t even look like a word to me anymore lol! Anyways…

After receiving some feedback, I’ve updated the Mod List to now include the following features:

• You can now select which column to search in (default: All) (thanks Tazmanyak).

• When searching, all search words used no longer have to be from the same column. For example, if you tried to search for “MC Command Center Deaderpool”, no results would be found. This update fixes that. (thanks amethyst lilac & Tazmanyak)

• Pagination is now at the top of the list as well for convenience (thanks julia)

• New option “Hide Removed Mods” – Hides all of the rows from removed Mods/Creators. They’ll be hidden for both All Mods (the full MASTERLIST) and Your Mods (the list of YOUR mods).

• Filter settings will now be saved for your next visit.

• New feature: Scan HTML

• New feature (Patrons Only): Filter Presets

New Feature: Scan HTML

(Early access until May 26th)

Finally no more searching for your mods one by one!

This option will allow you to select your mc_systeminfo.hml, mc_lastexception.html, OR BE-ExceptionReport.html since they all include the full list of your mods.

To use: Click the Scan HTML button, then select your latest mc_lastexception.html OR BE-ExceptionReport.html, the tool will scan and try to match the filenames from the full list in your exception HTML to the Mod and Creator columns in the Mod List. Once it’s finished, it will list all possible matches where you will go through and tick the correct ones to add to ♥ Your Mods.

→ If you don’t have an exception.html, you can use MCCC to generate a mc_systeminfo.hml (which also includes your full mod list). To do this, load into your game, click on a sim and go to MC Command Center > Sim Commands > Logging Commands > System Info Log. After you click System Info Log, your mc_systeminfo.hml can be found in the mod folder where MCCC is installed.

The larger your file, the longer it will take to scan. So, please be patient and stay on the page until it’s finished. Please check your results carefully because not every match will be correct, and some mods may not be found at all.

After taking many factors into consideration, I decided this would be better than a folder scan option.

New Feature (Patrons Only): Filter Presets

Since the new mod list rendered changelogs as Obsolete, I’ve added a new feature (for patrons only) to make up for that. The Patron Edition Mod List now allows you to create and manage your own filter presets. See the Mod List Guide for more info!

Rule Change Update

Last month I mentioned I was considering revising this rule ↓

Locking/Permanent paywalling one (or more) of their mods – If a creator has any mod that is only accessible by paying for it, then that creator will not be tracked. This includes requiring an account (locking) in order to download the mod. I need to be able to access all downloads for the mods that I add to the list. I will not create an account for ONE creator to do that.

After taking many factors into consideration and as much as I’d like to, I’ve decided to leave this rule as-is. I realized one of the reasons I put this rule into place is because I have no way of knowing if a creator’s permanently locked mod follows with the rest of my rules or not. In order for me to track a creator, I need access to all content from them.

Upcoming Patch & Plans

There’s a game update coming on Tuesday, May 12th (see laundry list). This will likely break some mods, so be prepared!

I won’t be making any updates to the list tomorrow (Sunday, May 10th) since it’s Mother’s Day. Happy Mother’s Day to all the beautiful moms out there!

Additionally, Thursday (May 14th) is my birthday, so I won’t be making mod list updates on that day either.

I believe that’s it for now, enjoy the new mod list update!

Happy Simming,
Scarlet
