[balkopatsims2finds]

the game didn’t have any green shrubs & I couldn’t find any. So I started recoloring the scrub oaks myself. I also changed the maxis version a bit, so I now have 4 different versions that looks more like the ones in Criquette’s neighborhood:

1 big scrub oak, 1 small scrub oak, 2 smaller scrub oaks, the original ‘dead’ scrub oak & my 2 recolors.

I actually like how they turned out, considering this is the first time I tried recoloring something, changing objects and creating hood deco for the game.

City Living Elevators as decor for any lot type

I’ve converted the elevators that come with City Living that are exclusive to penthouses and apartments to decorative objects that can be placed in any lot type. They do not replace the original ones, though. I also removed the restriction that only allowed you to place one elevator, you can now place more than one (for these decor elevators, not for the penthouse ones). There are two models, the cheaper and the fancier one, and each are available for short, medium and tall wall heights. They come in the same swatches as the “functional” penthouse ones.

Sadly, these are only decoration and have no interactions (even if you place them in a penthouse).

EDIT: Functional elevators are now available here!

They’re all in Decorations -> Sculptures and their prices are:

Cheap (Short) - §1100

Cheap (Medium) - §1200 

Cheap (Tall) - §1300 

Fancy (Short) - §2000 

Fancy (Medium) - §2100 

Fancy (Tall) - §2200

City Living is not required (thanks @srslysims for testing it) .

If you want to place them surrounded by walls (like in the first image), you need to use the bb.moveobjects cheat.

Functional Elevators for Regular Lots (without animation)

Thanks to DarkWalker, who discovered how to make the elevators functional on regular lots, I was able to make these, so all the credit goes to him.

This works by having one of the elevators act as a shell (in CL buildings this is not needed as the building is already the shell). For each model and height of elevator there are two types: a shell and a regular elevator. For them to work you need to place ONE shell along with regular elevators. Do NOT place more than one shell on a regular lot or place shells on penthouses/apartments. You will also need WeeAlbet’s mod to increase the limit of elevators you can place, since the game only allows you to place one by default.

Sadly, these elevators are not animated just like the original ones, sims will teleport from one elevator to another. The elevators themselves do not have interactions either. To use them, you must click on the ground or on an object on the level you want your sim to go. If you have stairs, sims might sometimes use the stairs, though (I haven’t tested it).

The elevator shells (right) have a small lighting issue when compared to regular elevators (left) as they look more blueish. I don’t think this can be avoided, though, as this is caused by the tag Build_IsShellBuilding that the shells require. A workaround is placing the shell somewhere unaccessible (not connected to any room) such as in the basement (be aware that shells become invisible when placed in the basement, so I would recommend enclosing it with walls so when you want to delete it you just delete the room) and placing regular elevators elsewhere.

Since these are technically just teleporters, they work even if they are not aligned vertically, so if you place two elevators in the same floor, sims might use the wrong one.

I’m not sure if City Living is required for this to work, but probably.

They are found in Build Mode -> Wall Attachments and cost:

Cheap Short Elevator - §1200 (Regular) / §1203 (Shell)

Cheap Medium Elevator - §1201 (Regular) / §1204 (Shell)

Cheap Tall Elevator - §1202 (Regular) / §1205 (Shell)

Fancy Short Elevator - §3000 (Regular) / §3003 (Shell)

Fancy Medium Elevator - §3001 (Regular) / §3004 (Shell)

Fancy Tall Elevator - §3002 (Regular) / §3005 (Shell)

Mods for The Sims 2

These are the mods i used on my game from various mod creators of the Sims 2 community.

DISCLAIMER: none of these mods are mine ~ credits to its rightful owners and huge thanks to all of them. Also, this blog was dedicated to and inspired by @pleasantsimmer ‘s Recommended Mods List who I’m a big fan of.)

Anti-Corruption Mods:

Mootilda’s Hood Checker – This is a tool and not really a mod, but it’s necessary to check your hoods for corruption. Read all documentation on the download page.

No Corrupt Death – Suppresses the corrupt death memory.

No Unlink on Delete – Game no longer partially destroys sim file on deletion of tombstone. May resolve potential random tombstone losses when moving tombstones to community lots resulting from shredded character files produced by unlinkage.

Essential Mods:

Bat Box as Vase (FFS Lot Debugger) -  This has a lot of similar features to the Sim Blender, but also has a lot of helpful debug options.

ChristianLov’s Gussy-Up -  This mod allows you to buy, change, and plan outfits from a pie menu in-game. Allows you to change townie clothing and change appearance of any Sim directly by clicking on them.

Cyjon’s Debugger -  A general purpose object, meant to compliment items like Pescado’s batbox. Can be found in Buy Mode under Miscellaneous/Miscellaneous as the pizza box. I used it to correctly synchronizes student with Semester Changes.

Cyjon’s Smarter EP Check -  Most of Cyjon’s mods require this mod so make sure you download this first before you go on a download spree on his site.

Lazyduchess’Sims2RPC - @lazyduchess‘ custom launcher with various fixes and adjustments.

Lazyduchess’ Story Progression Mod -  This mod attempts to add Story Progression into The Sims 2, kind of like in The Sims 3.

Lazyduchess’ Separate Top/Bottoms for non-Everyday Clothes Mod - self-explanatory.

Sim Blender – The ultimate Sim management “God” mod.

Sim Blender [Edited] - edited version by @meltingmagnetz

[balkopatsims2finds]

Hey Midge! I was wondering if there were any way you could enable the option to change a plantsim's hair through the mirror? I know the batbox can be used for this with the "fix flashing blue" option, but I was hoping for something more convenient for when I need to change my Sims appearance while on a community lot

Plantsims Can Change Hair Mod

Hi! I looked at how the batbox did it and turns out yes, it’s very easy! With this mod plantsims changing appearance will be treated like non-plantsims, i.e. will be able to change hair… or at least they definitely will with maxis mirrors and well-made CC mirrors. Things like the sim blender, which allow you to change appearance but don’t actually call on the mirror globals, won’t be affected unless you copy over the changes I copied from Pescado, which is to say (1) add a local variable to store the sim’s person flags in and (2) clear the plantsims flag before the vanity dialog is called, and afterwards (3) set the sim’s person flags back to what they were originally.

UPDATE 12/11/18: I dumbly made a mistake that made it so if you cancel the appearance change plantsims won’t get their plantsim flag back. Now it’s been fixed, so please redownload.

UPDATE 3/12/19: Updated to also affect toddlers.

UPDATE 9/23/20: Updated to also affect vanity tables.

Plantsim Mod Dump

A little treat that’s part New Year’s gift, part I’m-almost-at-600-followers gift!

Child & Teen Plantsims

All the functionality of Sims99Fanatic’s mod, plus:

Your children/teen plantsims will actually use your default plantsim overlay! No more need to fiddle around in SimPE to make their skin match other plantsims. You can even use a semi-transparent default replacement and it’ll show up correctly on your child/teen plantsims!

Since the above edit conflicts Pescado’s creaturefixes’ plantsim overlay layering fix I just included that entire fix in this mod. Make sure it loads after creaturefixes. Pescado’s layering fix appears to have been broken by a later EP/patch, so I have reverted this mod to conform with the unbroken Maxis overlay and recommend you delete the plantsim and vampire XTOLs from creaturefixes. This does not apply if you have the edited version from me and it’s up-to-date.

Plantsim toddlers will age up into children with no need to mess with your preferred god mode hack object.

In the description of the mod I linked to at the beginning there are instructions for changing hacked objects like Treeag’s painting or the bat box so you can use them to turn children/teens into plantsims.

KNOWN ISSUES: Despite my best attempts I couldn’t figure out how to fix the age bar & corresponding tooltip for plantsims. The tooltip for toddler plantsims will claim they’re going to age into adults next, adult/toddler/elder plantsims won’t get graphics representing the child, teen, or YA stages included in their age bar, and most importantly child/teen plantsims don’t get an age bar at all. You can still hover over it to see how many days they have left before transitioning, though.

UPDATE 1/8/19: Now with a version compatable with piqiwi’s parenthood mod! If you intend to use both mods, replace “midgethetree_plantsimschildteen” with  “midgethetree_plantsimschildteen-parenthoodfriendly” and rename it/piqiwi’s mod so that my mod loads last.

ETA: the parenthood friendly version also makes it compatible with piqiwi’s mood swing mod.

UPDATE 1/12/19: Now with a version compatable with Squinge’s teen-to-YA-no-college mod! If you intend to use both mods, replace “midgethetree_plantsimschildteen” with  “midgethetree_plantsimschildteen-teentoyafriendly” and rename it/Squinge’s mod so that my mod loads last.

UPDATE 2/12/19: Now scalps will show up properly for child/teen plantsims.

UPDATE 10/7/19: Child plantsims can now use plantsim idles (’loves me/loves me not’, ‘pick flower’), spores of happiness, the pollen prank (on other kids only), and the plantsim cure. My attempt to convert the adult cure anims for children looked horrible so I reused the conversion of the anim for drinking the werewolf potion. It doesn’t look perfect, but it’s useable. “Conflicts” with child lycanthropy but it’s okay, the resources are identical. Also, added child anims for sunshine/water motive failure/distress so they won’t float.

UPDATE 10/27/19: Since this mod is incompatible with the pie menu override from child witches I have incorporated the edits of that override into this mod. Now if you have child witches they will be able to cast spells. Remove the pie menu override from child witches if you downloaded it. The conflict with child lycanthropy can be ignored.

UPDATE 10/30/19: Overlay fixed to ensure no strange issues, such as TF sims using the TM body texture.

UPDATE 8/7/20: Fixed issues with overlay when used with other overlays.

UPDATE 11/5/20: Incorporated simler90′s npc aging fix, so you get an aspiration dialog when aging npcs up to teen with the FT npc aging feature.

Spray Add-On

Spraying plants should now be able to lead to children/teens/YAs becoming plantsims. Children might float for a bit because there aren’t child animations for becoming a plantsim via spraying but it should at least be functional.

UPDATE 1/15/19: Now works for orchard trees too.

UPDATE 7/29/19: Now alternatively available as a version of cyjon’s plantsim fix enabled to work for children/teens. Pick only childteenplantsims-sprayaddon OR cj-plantsimfix.

No Plantsims From Pesticides

Because I like having sims garden but having them turn into plantsims from it doesn’t fit how I’m conceptualizing plantsims for my game. Conflicts with the spray add-on of course, which is why I offered the spray add-on as an add-on.

UPDATE 1/15/19: Now works for orchard trees too.

Pollen Cloud Prank Turns Sims Into Plantsims

Same as [Black_Spirit]’s mod, but cleaner, smaller, and with a non-autonomous version so you can have better control over what sims became plantsims. Works for teens, too: teens can perform the interaction, and if a teen is the victim of a pollen cloud prank they’ll become a plantsim.

UPDATE 2/15/19: Now with versions that’ll only turn the sim into a plantsim if they have <-65 energy.

UPDATE 10/7/19: Updated to not interfere with the part of child/teen plantsims that makes the pollen cloud prank work for kids. The part that makes the pollen cloud prank non-autonomous has been separated and must load after child/teen plantsims.

Bubble Bath Fun  ─  Fun increases while taking a bubble bath.

Become Author without Computer ─ self-explanatory.

Comm Skilling ─  Controlled sims, NPCs, and townies may gain skills/enthusiasm while visiting community lots.

Creativity Gain for Blogging/Diary ─ also self-explanatory.

Crafting Skills and Tweaks  ─ This mod allocates a skill to each crafting station such that as a Sim uses the station they gain the associated skill.  The mod also changes using the Robot Workbench to gain Science enthusiasm, the Toy Workbench to gain Tinkering enthusiasm, and the Flower Station to gain Nature enthusiasm.  Finally it brings the fun mood changes from using the Pottery Wheel in line with the other four stations.

                                         »»————-　♡　————-««

CASSIDY - Hair Conversion + Slight morph

2022 IS COMING. To celebrate, I have converted the Cassidy Hair made by greenllamas. I made a very slight edit of it, though.

For the Sims 2 players, this is the perfect hair if you long for elegance and glamour; it is quite a versatile hair, really.

I made 4 colors altogether: black, brown, a pale blonde and a rosy blonde (as red), all binned.

Get CASSIDY here and happy New Year!

windows 10 is garbage so every time i boot up the computer i have to run command prompt and enter

net.exe stop “Windows Search”

so that the shitty goddamned search/cortana feature that i never fucking use stops running in the background taking up all my fucking disk space

Since MTS doesn’t allow game rips and that I couldn’t find anything of the sort online, I thought I would make it myself. introducing the True Clone System! A way for you to enjoy some of your favorite sims from the Sims 2 elsewhere! I went through all of the neighborhoods, and copied all of the playable sims (bin families and some key characters / some deceased parents too) and made them available to be imported through the custom existing sims. I’ve individualized them through each neighborhood and household to make it easier, or I have a all in one package that has every sim included without having to go through the folders. Sadly these aren’t perfect replicas, their skills and memories will be missing but vanity wise these are 100% accurate (sub outfits included!) I’m sure through means of gameplay, SimPE or mods you could get them back to their former glory if you’re dedicated enough :P

A big thanks to SimPE, as it’s what I used to create this.

 How to install: simply unzip the file of the sim you wish to use into Documents\EA Games\The Sims™ 2 Ultimate Collection\SavedSims (you can’t have folders in the saved sims folder make sure it’s only files of the sims you wish to use)

I’ve also included a small text cheat sheet of what a sim’s zodiac sign and aspiration for easier creation, separated by household and name as well so you didn’t have to have to go on a wild goose chase to find it like I did.

Merging CC - A Mini Guide

So you’d like to merge (or bundle) your sims 2 cc? Merging packages is a great way to speed up your loading time, but please keep the following in mind:

- You can’t un-merge CC, so you better be damn sure you’ll want to keep it. - You can’t use the in game trash function on merged CC  - You can’t merge everything (”you just can’t, Nemo”) - Merging your Mods is probably a very bad thing.  - Back Up your game. Seriously

Also, Almighty Hat talks about merging in this tutorial. Scroll all the way down.  I recommend giving it a read.  

Alright, let’s do this thing! (My kid has been watching too many pixar movies. Spot the reference)
