Brindleton Bay Reimagined - Cartoon Map Overhaul

October 10, 2026 - Original free public release

Give Brindleton Bay a storybook coastline with bold outlines, bright blue water, green forests, a marina and an island lighthouse. This is a static world-map backdrop replacement, not an animated map or a replacement for playable lots. Households, builds and gameplay are unchanged.

Requirements
The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs Expansion Pack. No script mods are required.

Installation
1. Close The Sims 4 and extract the ZIP.
2. Put Brindleton_Bay_Modnest_Cartoon.package in your Sims 4 Mods folder.
3. Remove any other Brindleton Bay map replacement, including realistic or animated variants. Use only one replacement for this world at a time. Other worlds' map replacements may remain installed.
4. Enable Custom Content and Mods, then restart the game.
If an older backdrop remains cached, close the game and remove localthumbcache.package from the Sims 4 user folder before restarting. The game recreates this cache.

Uninstall
Close the game and remove this package. Clear the cache if the old backdrop persists.

Credits
Original world-map layout: EA and Maxis. Custom artwork created with AI assistance and prepared for the game by Modnest. This distribution contains the unchanged original Patreon package. Container version 1.0.0 identifies the archive, not a new map build.
