Thanks for making this mod! Been playing with the ITF loading screen since it came out and it was starting to get really old xD. Personally, I'm gonna use the Town Life loading screen, because the geometric monochrome of it all reminds me of Sims 4's aesthetic before the rebrand (y'know, when people still thought there was hope for the franchise).

I honestly find it a little surreal to see the Sweet Treats loading screen

The logo mod doesn't work for me, maybe because I don't have ITF (my newest install is Movie Stuff pack). The loading screen mod works perfectly though, thanks!

It should be working with whatever pack you have. I have ITF, and it's alright for me.
I was thinking that it may not be working with other languages of the game, as they use different logos for the selected language. Tell me if you are not playing the game in English.
If you are playing in English, it might be a conflict, somehow. You can use the Dashboard Tool to see if there are any conflicts.

Your mod is just a rip off of this older mod here...

But personally I prefer this neat all inclusive loading screen...

Not exactly. First of all, I edited/replaced all resources by myself, without drawing them from any other mod. And I included all the packs, in one file each. Lastly, the biggest difference is the logo replacement (optional), so that people wouldn't be seeing a logo of a pack that they do not even have.

Speaking of loading screens, I prefer this one.

Modern looking that may be but it doesn't even pay homage to the entirety of The Sims 3's run unlike the one I linked to. It also has loading blurbs that speak to the many oddities and illogical quirks of being a Sim. Like not being able to go to school because a plate is blocking the Sim kid's path to the door. Or having a Sim dye his/her hair blue and his/her offspring inheriting said blue dyed hair when it gets born ????

I put the late night and the loading screen background worked but the logo continues from the most recent expansion I have (seasons). Is there no way to put the late nigh expansion logo?

I have the Generations background but the logo is still Into the Future, I understand it is because my game is in italian? Is there any way to get the base game logo?

Could you make a town life one but without icons?

Sorry for being late to answer. Answering everyone, I am currently unable to do anything because right now I don't even have a 64-bit PC to install the game and work on something. Life forced me to be stuck with a 32-bit PC.

Did you install Base Game Logos? If you didn't, you should try and see if it replaces Seasons logo. But if you did, remove it and see if it brings Late Night logo. If none works, I am suspecting that it might be happening because you may be using another language other than English.

This might be the reason. I could not check logos from other languages because they were only included as small images. I thought they would share the same file ID with the English one.

I've never considered removing or replacing the icons before. And as I've stated above, can't do that for now. But when I get a chance I'll see what happens.

Update: Loading Screens with their original texts
I really enjoyed the loading screen mod, but I noticed that something's missing: the text's beneath the loading bar are always the same (from the newest EP/SP installed).
So I extracted the text's from the game files and added it to your loading screen mods and it's working perfectly fine and it's just like having the original EP installed
I don't own Katy Perry's Sweet Treats Stuff Pack (SP6), that's why there it's missing.

I attached the updated version, but only I only added the english STBLs, so who ever would like to update it for a different language than english, feel free to do so and post it here in the comments

Thank you! Hopefully, I'll have enough free time to update this mod!

All the previews are at varying ratios and logo sizes, I'm glad you updated your mod to finally make them all match <3

Would you possible consider making a loading screen with just a simple black background? ^^
