My name is Tim. Alone, in Finistère, Brittany, I build software and mods for the games and workshops I love. None of them ever deletes anything, all of them undo everything, and none tells you more than it knows.

One person, not a studio
Tanven is a one-person company, registered on September 2nd, 2026 — a name in a registry, not a team. Behind it there's me, Tim, in Finistère. Three principles apply to everything that leaves this workshop.
Nothing is ever destroyed.
Reversible quarantine, recycle bin, snapshots before any mass operation. Never a silent overwrite.
Never more confident than the evidence.
A failure never shows green; "couldn't read" is never "nothing found".
Local first.
The work happens on your machine. Every network access is visible, counted, and not one of them is needed to reach a diagnosis.
For The Sims 4
Bedside
Mod diagnosis for The Sims 4. It tells you which one breaks your game — and why. And it never deletes anything.
Discover Bedside →Roots in design
Towns with a past. For The Sims 4: from one seed, a whole town and ninety years of history — real genealogies, true family resemblances, neighbours who have known each other for twenty years.
Discover Roots →Forethought in design
Sims that plan ahead. For The Sims 4: a planner in front of the game's autonomy, so a starving Sim stops going to bed. It decides, the game executes; on failure, back to the original behaviour.

Machine embroidery and cutting: the files bought by the bundle, and never found again.
TidyWren in trials
It sorts and checks your collection of machine-embroidery and SVG cutting files: duplicates, broken files, files your machine will refuse. Offline, no account, and never deleting anything.
