As someone who loves a good side hobby, I wanted to create a mini mod that allows your Sims to have their own! PlumbPod Podcasts allows your Sim to have a mini podcast hobby, all the while making simoleons on the side. Your Sim will also have the opportunity to gain fame!
Accessing Podcast Interactions:
You can find the general Podcast pie menu on any computer. This is where all of the interactions will be.
When you open this pie menu, you will find three other menus that allows you to register your podcast, choose your podcast type, and access other podcast interactions.
Registering Your Podcast:
You will have the option to choose two (2) podcast subscriptions. Basic Subscription (§20) or the Premium Subscription (§50) if you want your Sim to spend an extra few Simoleons. Note: These subscriptions are simply for gameplay features and will not impact your ability to create podcasts!
Choosing a Podcast Type:
Your Sim will have the opportunity to choose from twelve (12) podcast types. This includes beauty podcasters, lifestyle podcasters, conspiracy podcasters, and many more!
Your Sim will receive a reward trait after they choose their preferred podcast type. The good news is that your Sim can choose as many podcasts as they like. (i.e. You can be a beauty and lifestyle podcaster!) See a few examples below:
Hosting a Podcast:
There are THREE (3) ways your Sim can host a podcast:
- A Computer
- The Camera and tripod (if you own the Moschino Stuff Pack)
- The Stationary Cameras (comes with the Get Famous Expansion Pack)
If you use the stationary cameras for your podcast, your Sim will need to STAND. However, if you use the tripod camera your Sim will be able to sit. ALSO, if your Sim uses the computer to host a podcast, they can sit ANYWHERE, even if it’s not in the same room as the computer. (the sofa, the floor, a chair, even outside lol)
Your Sim will take approximately 30mins – 1 hour to record the podcast. Afterwards, they will receive a random custom buff. See two examples below:
Paid Podcasts:
PlumbPod will pay your Sim §100 for every podcast they upload. However, your Sim can only do this ONCE a day. Your Sim will also gain fame each time they upload a podcast episode.
Podcast Interactions:
I also created a few interactions in the case that your Sim wants to invite another Sim onto their podcast. Yes, your Sim will still be able to record their podcast and complete these interactions simultaneously! Once you click on the Sim, you will see the Podcast Interactions pie menu.
Under this pie menu, you can find the Host Interactions and Guest Interactions.
Host Interactions: Interactions for the Host to do.
Guest Interactions: Interactions for the Guest to do.
A few of these interactions come with custom buffs and notifications, but NOT all. I didn’t want to bombard Sims with too many emotions lol.
NOTE: These interactions work better when your Sim host their podcasts on the tripod camera. It can still technically work on the stationary cameras, but NOT on the computer.
I must express that this is only a mini mod. I might continue to add to it as time goes on. Feel free to use your imagination for your storytelling lol. As always if there are any issues, feel free to drop by my Discord. Enjoy, and happy podcasting!
