Misc: Ultimate List of Business Ideas ♥ [UPDATED]

Hi ❀ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ

Today, after hours of brainstorming and collecting impressions, I proudly present to you the ultimate list of business ideas for the newly released Businesses & Hobbies pack ✧. ✲ﾟ･｡✧･ﾟ

I've categorized the business ideas to provide a more structured overview, because there are so many  (๑❛ʚ❛๑). They are sorted into the following categories: 📌 Service-based small businesses 🍽️ Restaurants & entertainment venues 🛍️ Retail & creative shops 🛠️ Craft & manufacturing businesses 🎭 Fantasy & unconventional businesses.

Also for some of these ideas, I recommend using CC or mods to deepen the immersion, but that's completely up to you — sometimes using your own imagination does the trick too~ The recommended or sometimes necessary packs are included behind the business idea as well as CC/mod recommendation markers ❀✿❀

If you feel like something's missing, please comment your idea(s) and I will happily add them to the list so that the compendium can continue to grow (◕ω◕✿)

Please take a look at my Patreon for more cute Sims 4 stuff~ You can find the original post here.

As always, happy simming! - MiunaChan ♥

The Collection Legacy by @simzcoolstar! Graphics by me. I played around a lot with the layout but I really like how it came out in the end!

This 10 generation challenge will help you complete various collections throughout the game (some you didn't even know about!).

Here are the full challenge rules, which includes details on which packs you'll need for each generation. It looks like it was last updated around 2020 based on the packs used, so you can always add more!

What challenge should I do next?

Taxi Default Replacement for The Sims 2

This is a default replacement for the in game Taxi. This version I made is similar to the Sims 4 one. I removed the "thingy" on the top, leaving just the smaller one, changed the texture and made the glass more clear.

Hope you like it ;)

TS2 Extender for Legacy Collection

Hi :)

I've been poking around in the new Legacy Collection release for The Sims 2.

I started work on a small mod that currently adds the following:

Borderless fullscreen support

Toggle to skip intro videos.

Firstborn Syndrome Fix (Fixes broken RNG in general)

Experimental restored Lua features for modders.

Download on Github

Installation is simple, head to your game's installation directory -> EP9 -> TSBin and extract the contents there, alongside the game's executable. You can tweak the mod's features via notepad by editing the included .ini file.

Now let's hope EA actually addresses the other millions of issues the release has...

[simplydeesims]

Hoping these still work, but here are some good ones. Will probably reblog some CC later

◆ 200 Essential Sims 2 Mods, Defaults and Fixes ◆

I have just reinstalled my game and currently reorganizing downloads folder. I thought that it could be helpful to share the resources that I use. If you’re starting over just like me, good luck! We can do it :D

All the mods are listed in the random order. But important ones go first. I also added tiny descriptions of what each mod does. Also, let me know if you notice that some of these mods conflict. I’ll appreciate ♥

This is an endless list, so I’m hiding the part of it under the cut. I also decided to share the PDF and word version of the list for convenience. Have fun!  ♥

◆ DOWNLOAD ◆

Clean UI - changes user interface to minimalistic and modern one.

Clean UI for Bodyshop - the same style interface for Bodyshop.

Bodyshop Brightening - redefines the lighting used in BodyShop. Must be put in Documents/EA Games/The sims 2/Config folder!

Minimalist Bodyshop Background - put in the Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2 folder and click F5 when you are in Bodyshop.

Minimalistic Logo Screen

No Pause Frame - removes the red frame that appears when the game is paused.

Default book covers and novel icons

Better Bubbles - replaces the default blurry low-resolution Chat, Thought and Yell Headline Bubbles with brand new high-quality textures.

Talk to Me - a speech icon replacement mod that replaces (almost) all speech icons with TS4 icons.

Camera Mod Compilation

Widescreen Camera Cas

Maxis Match Lighting Mod by Dreadpirate 

Maxis Roofs Default Replacement by Curiousb4

Clean Neighbourhood Templates by Jawusa - these neighborhood templates allow to create clean custom neighborhoods with no Townies/NPCs or if you want to play in EA’s neighborhoods, but without the playables.

Clean and Empty Stealth Hood Plates by Jawusa - allow to get rid of Maxis families that appear in neighbourhood’s bin.

Rural Charm terrain and road default replacement by Criquette

No Rocks Hood Deco Mod - gets rid of those deco rocks that serve as placeholders when using certain hood deco.

Sim Shadow Fix - fixes Sims’ shadows shown as black rectangles.

ACR - makes all the romantic interactions autonomous.

Pregnancy Wear Any Outfit - allows your sims to wear any outfit instead of maternity clothes. If the outfit hasn’t got a pregnancy morph, it will appear on a sim without a pregnant belly.

Simblender - can teleport sims onto your lot, set family relationships, move sims in, make townies, give skill points, set career levels and more

No Plumbobs - removes plumbobs above sims heads and in hood view above lots too.

Sims 2 Sliders - various extra sliders for Sims faces in CAS. I have most of them except for asymmetry ones.

Invisible Stop Signs – makes the stop signs in the hood view invisible

Busy Roads NH Traffic Default Replacement - replaces Maxis’ neighborhood cars

OMSPs - special tiny shelves that add extra slots for clutter

Breadfruit Tree Fix - yes, it’s a very important fix that must be in top 50 :D Maxis Breadfruit Tree is broken and when the lightning strikes it, the fire effect never goes away. This is so annoyiiing.

Build/Buy Mode Enabled on Community Lots

Community Skilling - enables your sims get skill points on community lots. By default they can’t gain them.

Sleep on Community Lots

Business Runs You - it will manage the employees, making them take breaks automatically, giving them reasonable wages automatically, etc

The Sims 4 - The Eras Legacy

By Viniciusvill & grenesims

Don't be strict while following the rules. Let your imagination fly free, follow your story and have fun!

Acknowledgements:

To Taylor Swift for creating amazing songs that bring me so much joy.

To grenesims, my co-writer who kindly agreed to help me create this challenge.

the sims 4: swiftacy a 10 generation swiftie legacy challenge

Welcome to my Sims 4 Swiftacy Challenge! I’m Gilly, and I recently became extremely enamored with the music of Taylor Swift. I kept thinking how well the storylines in her music would work with a legacy challenge, so I’ve designed each generation of this challenge to reference a different Taylor Swift era. I’ve included generation colors as well just in case you’d like to play this challenge with berry or banilla sims!

Besides the main 9 generations, I’ve also included a few bonus generation prompts. Feel free to use these in addition to or instead of a certain generation’s rules (or include them as their own separate gen!) 

This is a pretty story-oriented legacy, but by no means are you required to play this legacy in that way! Feel free to edit challenge rules or add your own rules to each generation if you want to make it more gameplay-oriented.

If you choose to complete this challenge on your simblr blog, please tag me @gillysims​ in your opening post and I will be sure to reblog and check your story out. You can also use the #ts4swiftacy tag! 

read the rules here or under the cut!

Best way to install the sims 2 in 2024!! :)

EDIT: This no longer works sadly :(

Worked on a cuter/easier to follow version of the TS2 install guide at TS2.crd.co!

[simplydeesims]

I made graphics for @lilsimsie and @alwaysimming "Not So Berry" challenge. So happy with how they turned out. I was really inspired by @simcloudlogic design. I wanted a different vibe, but if it weren't for their graphics IDK what I would do and how to layout the whole thing.

[simplydeesims]

I didn't know this was on tumblr! I also want to do this one as well!! :) ♥

I made a lil graphic version for BTT made by @malixacc ฅ^ >ヮ<^₎ Have fun playing everyone!
