Editing occlusion shadows on objects
This is a tutorial aimed at creators and converters who want to understand, at least a little, how to improve the appearance of their objects in the game. Yes, it’s a bit exhausting, just like creating an object from scratch, mapping it and texturing it, but the result is worth it. The shadow dynamics of TS3 are different from TS4. In TS4, the game itself creates these shadows when the object approaches a wall. In TS3 it is necessary for these shadows to be created using “lights” in TSRW. Of course, the occlusion is not perfect, but it gives the game a more realistic aspect by creating this idea of depth.
The icing on the cake: keep these shadows if they are large objects, like cabinets, sofas, beds, tables, chairs… Small decorative objects, like clutter, you can just delete these shadows. But if you are crazy about perfection and details, and really want even an ant to create its shadow when approaching a wall, my tip is that you clone using a small object as a base as this will make editing the shadows easier.
I will use as an example this armoire that I edited a while ago. The shadows have been edited and look like this when you open them in TSRW:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the game, this is how the shadows appear when we position the object close to a wall:
Tumblr media
To edit the shadows, you must click on the "MISC" tab in TSRW. These shadows are right below, where "LIGHTS" is written. Note that there is a + sign next to it and when you click it, a drop-down list appears with all the shadows separated. In this example there are 3 of these shadows. The names are the same, but let's say we have shadow 1 (front), shadow 2 (top) and shadow 3 (side). Edits must be made in the order they appear.
Tumblr media
Click on the three dots to the right of lights. A window as shown in the image below will appear:
Tumblr media
The lights that must be edited are found in the part where it says "OCCLUDERS". In this case, "Entry 1" corresponds to our "SHADOW 1" (front)...
Tumblr media
For the front shadow, we will start by changing these two parameters that correspond to the width and position of the shadow. My tip is that you copy the original value, change this value to 1 and then click on "OK" to see what happens (that is, to see what changes when changing the value, so you will know if you need to change it to a higher value or smaller...). If it's not what you need, just paste the original value copied previously into the corresponding field and change it little by little until you reach the correct size of the object.
Tumblr media
Front shadow height:
Tumblr media
For the distance the shadow is from the object, this field must be edited - remembering that we are still editing the front shadow (which corresponds to the shadow that will replicate the width of the object on the wall):
Tumblr media
For the other shadows, you must follow the same path: changing the values until it is proportional to the size of the object.
Bonus tip: Open various base game objects in TSRW and see how shadows are created. For example, select a chair and study each shade individually. With practice, you will realize that all you have to do is create a shadow on all sides of the object. For example: on a bed, you should have a shade for the headboard, another for the footboard, another for the side and another for the top, which would be the mattress. Therefore, it is important to study each type of object separately.
Tumblr media
Now you might be asking yourself: Oh, yes, thank you very much... But where do I start? How will I know how to create a shadow from scratch? OMG! Help me!
Don't worry, it's very simple: when cloning an object, like a bed for example, it's obvious that you will use a bed from the game as a clone... So just edit the original shadows that correspond to the clone, so that they are the size of the bed you are creating for the game. Only that.
Tumblr media
I say again: each object is a specific case. This tutorial is just a simple way to show you the way to understand how these shadows work and how they are generated for the game.
Yes, creating a beautiful object is hard work and requires dedication, time and effort. Therefore, value the creators who strive to deliver you a quality object ♥.
If you feel like helping me, here is a link for donations. Thank you very much ♥.

IMPORTANT: If you export as .package through TSRW:
You need to compress your .package! TSRW, being as reliable as always, does NOT compress your package files exported through File Contents, but it DOES compress Sims3Packs (the difference in file size can be seen when changing those Sims3Packs to packages). Just use S3PE to open up your package, CTRL-A to select everything, go to Resource and click Compressed, then save!
I keeeeeeep seeing package sizes that go up to 40 MB or more because they have uncompresed 2048 IMG files, which add up. Depending on what your package contains, compressing it will bring it down to around 2,000 KB or less!

I know what went wrong now after asking around.
So Maxis has a design feature in how certain ID groups are handled, which could make items with those ID groups be exported with different items, lots, sims, etc.
The available CC creation tools at the time had initially been using the same ID groups that EA was using for their own work. Due to that, the doll was assigned to ID groups that allowed it to be packaged with seemingly random exports, such as tattoos or furniture. After the doll incident, said tools were then updated to avoid those ID groups to keep another incident from happening again. EA would then patch the game themselves shortly thereafter to prevent it as well.
The doll had already been remade and re-uploaded using an updated version of TSRW, but my guess is it was taken down anyway given everything that had happened.
Additionally, I want to apologize for my skepticism. It really did cause all of those issues, and it was really bizarre how it happened.
I'm curious as to which ID groups the OG doll was misassigned, but that would require the og exported doll file. That, or finding an old version of TSRW to export it to potentially look there, as the version I currently have (2.0.88) was patched after the ID Group fix.
This would explain why the doll isn't causing any harm in my game, or was attaching itself in either version of my games, even though I was exporting from the og wrk file last edited Feb 15, 2010. Workshop and Sims have been fixed to keep it from causing any damage.
It makes me wonder, if not with Girl Doll Dressed, then when would this have cropped up at all? Had it not happened to Rebecah, which creator would have been unlucky enough for it to happen to? Those are just some hypotheticals that make me wonder, since it could have happened to anyone. Hell, it may HAVE happened, but the doll managed to be the poster child for it. After all, people are gonna notice a weird doll showing up in their game a hell of a lot more than a random table, or pattern. There was also some other rather pervasive bad CC that could have been copied around in a similar manner. The night boots and that one pink photoskinned outfit immediately come to mind, namely because they were the bane of my game.
All that said though, now that I have the answer to why the doll did what it did, there's not much need to look into it any further. There are some lingering questions, but if you're running your game on 1.67-9 then your game is safe from the doll.

TSRW Workshop flaw with cloning items. Possible fixes. BZ : https://bioniczombie.tumblr.com/post/725756054757048320/fixing-walls-floors-with-the-same-catalog-names CardinalSims: “You could try using S3OC's 'Fix Integrity', which will renumber and standalone-ify a package. Some objects take to it better than others, so it's not abnormal if it still breaks in a different way after this. Otherwise, I'd probably just delete V2 and remake it on a new clone entirely.” Aisquared: “It's actually a flaw in TSRW when cloning build items. The workaround should be saving your project, then at the new project screen re-import your saved project then at the screen where the project name is shown change the text in every space which you can edit later anyway. Export it again and yes, your cloned object should be magically renumbered successfully..”

Utilities Mod by Twinsimming 💡💧
This mod adds optional power and water utilities for players looking for some added challenge in their gameplay.
This is a script mod that can be placed in your Packages folder. It was built and tested on 1.69 but should work fine on 1.67.
New Objects
Power Box
- Price: §0 - Category: Misc. Electronics/Misc. Appliances - Includes 3 original swatches + 1 recolorable option (3 channels) - Poly Count: 274
Water Pipes
- Price: §0 - Category: Misc. Plumbing - Includes 3 original swatches + 1 recolorable option (3 channels) - Poly Count: 1065
Utilities
The Power Box controls power and the Water Pipes control water (self explanatory :p). Both utility objects are free in buy mode in the Misc. Electronics tab and Misc. Plumbing tab, respectively.
Once placed down on your lot, you can enable one or both utilities. When the utilities are enabled, power and/or water will be cut off to certain objects on your lot until you "Turn On" the Power Box and/or Water Pipes.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
While the utilities are on, your sims will be charged between §1 - §3 simoleons for every 10 minutes they use an object that requires a utility, with the charge varying based on the size of the object. The total cost will be added to your next household bill.
If you want to opt out of the utilities system, just use the “Disable Power Utility” and “Disable Water Utility” interactions available on the utility objects.
The utilities system only applies to the active household.
A full list of all of the objects affected by the Power Box and Water Pipes utilities and their usage costs can be found on the mod download page.
Utility Costs and Usage
To check how much you've spent on utilities during the current billing cycle (between when you pay your bills and the next bill payment), click on the "Check Utility Usage" interaction on either utility.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
To see your full utilities breakdown, use the new "Check Utility Costs" interaction on the computer.
Also included in the full utilities breakdown is a Green Energy Rebate total.
This total calculates how much money a lot saves by using the Solar Panels and Wind Turbines from the Sims 3 Store and factors that into the total utilities cost.
The full utilities breakdown also shows up when your sim pays their bills.
Tumblr media
Lack of Funds
If your household funds fall below the usage cost of a utility, that utility will be shut off and cannot be turned back on until your funds are sufficient.
Bill Delinquency
If you’re late on paying your bills, your utilities will get shut off. Both utilities will be shut off when your bills are two days old.
Tuning
All of the tunable values can be found on the mod download page under the header “Tuning”.
Script Namespace
If you want to turn another object into a power or water utility, open your desired object in s3pe and replace the current script name with the following:
Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Twinsimming.Utilities.PowerBox
Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Twinsimming.Utilities.Water Pipes
Conflicts & Known Issues
These are new scripted objects so there shouldn’t be any conflicts.

Nose Definition makeup (#1, #2, and #4)
Pretty much what it looks like! Of my usual "squint and you'll see it" fare. I've had these done up for a while and I've used them a ton, so I hope you all might too.
This makeup (I, II, IV) can define the shape of a sim's nose bridge without going full contour. Feel free to use at different opacity for even more subtle results!
No. 2 and 4 might look SUPER DUPER similar, but I assure you they are not.
When I can finally decide on #3 I shall put it here along with any applicable nose makeup I come up with :)
Details:
under Makeup > Lipstick
Male & Female ~ Teen - Elder // Thumbnail included
1 channel, see photo
1024x texture, borderline microscopic mask to save size
0.1 MB each, Compressorized
Enabled for most categories, not for random
Credits: TSRW, Photoshop

[tutorial] how to make computers functional in the sims 3 by sideshow_snob
Programs needed: TSRW [i use the old version] Blender 2.7 [you can use any version] Milkshape 1.8.4
You can download this tutorial as a .doc HERE
Original [right] TS3 version [left]
Tumblr media
So, how do we start?
Seperate your computer of choice into pieces. [mouse, keyboard, monitor, monitor screen, mousepad if applicable, drop shadow if applicable]. This can be done by selecting faces and holding 'shift +' to select that entire piece. if shift + doesn't work you'll have to do it by hand. Once your desired piece is selected, press 'P' to separate.
Tumblr media
Once you've seperated all your parts, go ahead an open TSRW and clone a similar PC. I chose this one
Tumblr media
Go ahead and export the .wso AND .obj file for this computer in the mesh tab. I named my exports 'eapcref' we're going to be using this PC as a reference to modify our mesh, and assign bones in milkshape.
go ahead and import the .obj into blender, where your separated PC is.
Tumblr media
As you can see, these computers are pretty different. We're going to move each piece around until its in a similar size and position as the EA one, so the PC animates properly. Helpful shortcuts ---> G [grab] S [scale] R [Rotate]
This is what mine looked like when I finished moving it around:
Tumblr media
Keep in mind, i actually tested mine quite a few times in game because the animation was not lining up with the PC location, so this is what mine looks like after a few modifications. Make sure you save this .blend file so you can modify it if necessary after you assign the bones.
Now onto actually assigning the bones…
Open milkshape and import all your seperated PC files.
Your PC parts should be grouped like this:
Tumblr media
group_0: the monitor, mousepad [basically everything except the drop shadow, screen, and mouse] group_1: drop shadow group_2: screen
Now import your EA pc .wso file
Select the EA pc parts in the groups tab, then go to the joints tab and click 'show' Then go back to the groups tab, with the ea pc still selected, and select all your PC parts. Go back to the joints tab, and click 'assign'.
Now delete the EA PC.
Tumblr media
the first bone is the mouse assignment, and the second bone is the rest of the computer.
Tumblr media
go ahead and click 'selassigned' and clear the bone assignment since its incorrect.
To assign the bones, go to the model tab and click 'select' alt shift left click all the bones in your mouse
Tumblr media
go back to the joints tab and click assign
now to assign the PC bones
Select everything except the mouse and drop shadow, then go back to the joints tab and click assign
you can check to see if your bones are properly assigned by clicking 'selassigned' on both bones
export as .wso and your finished!
something to note:
if your mousepad gets in the way while assigning bones, you can keep it seperate and just regroup it back into the mesh after assigning bones.

Store Evening Gown with Bow for teen-elder
I think this is one of the earliest dresses from the Store, I remember putting it on every sim because of that fan 😁 I wasn't initially going to add a maternity morph for the adult version, but the generated one for teens was decent, so I figured—eh, what's one more TSRW project?
For teen-elder females. Formal, Career, Maternity. Not enabled for random.
3 channels, 3 presets. I was initially going to keep EA's original presets, but decided I hated them after seeing them so often during testing.
Original Store item (afbodygownevening) not required.

Mechtasims - 4t3 Back to School Set
*updated to include wonderful previews by @sideshowsnob!
Happy Simblrween 2023! And whew, my first OBJECT set! I've worked really hard on this set, and now my right hand is very, very exhausted after typing and clicking and constantly opening TSRW...
I have worked REALLY hard making some of these functional and fully recolorable whenever possible! All credits go to Mechtasims! Further info is in a text file in the .zip file! A collection file has also been provided!
In short:
There are 19 items (20 including a duplicate of the trunk that uses a different script),
EVERYTHING except the wall calendar, the textbook, and posters are fully recolorable (but the posters have the pin recolorable)
The bed is functional! I repeat, THE BED IS FUNCTIONAL! It has some clipping issues with the pillows while relaxing, and the blanket when a bigger or male Sim gets out of the bed, but it's minor and still functional!
The bedframe is separated because I didn't want to remap everything,
The minifridge acts as a regular, base game fridge akin to the Hydra boba minifridge or the Mini-Freeze on MTS, rather than the University Life minifridge that only gives snacks.
Both the phone and the clock are functional as alarm clocks, and the heart wall light is also functional.
The trunk, as seen by the bedframe, is functional as a storage chest. It's stackable!
The wall items are moveable up and down with: ; and '
The .zip has all the info on polycount and categories. I have also adjusted slots for these objects!
There are two different trunks in the .zip file; both function as a storage chest, but the one labeled "Portable_LorenRose13Mod" at the end requires the "ATS3_object_chestlike_fisherbasket.package" file from here, where there is further information. Basically, you'll be able to put the modded chest in your Sim's inventory, unlike the regular version! Technically, you can have both trunks in your game, but there's really no point.
Some of these objects come with different texture overlays (but the rest of the mesh is recolorable). See below the cut for all the masks and combinations!
Download - SFS
or
Download - Simblr.CC
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm using Red-Green-Blue-Yellow for Channel 1-2-3-4 respectively.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(the legs are still recolorable on all of these, I just got tired of putting the green)
Tumblr media
The third channel also recolors the interior part!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are additional swatches that change the hue of the phone screen!

          4t3 Conversion of ICFB's Summer of '59 Set
A 4t3 conversion of a Barbie inspired set for all your sims, made originally by IceCreamForBreakfast, now to ts3!
As a preparation for the (surely iconic) Barbie movie releasing on the next couple of weeks, I decided to convert this super cute set which I downloaded as soon as I saw on my dashboard! Hope you like it! Enjoy! <3
————— —————
Known Problems:
There are two seams on the bikini top that I have no idea how to fix. They don't show up on Blender, Milkshape, TSRW, and not even CAS. just in-game, which is so annoying. I hope they don't bother you!
If you find any more problems, please let me know!
LIGHTING GLITCHES ONLY APPEAR ON CAS!
Note that teens and elders have neck gaps. This is sadly the price for having them available! For teens, try using this and this slider by gruesim!
————— —————
ALL OG CREDITS GO TO @ice-creamforbreakfast​! IT’S NOT MY MESHES, AND IT’S NOT MY TEXTURES, I JUST CONVERTED THEM TO THE SIMS 3!
————— —————  
NOTES (PLEASE READ):
This set is quite low poly, since with most clothes I baked the textures onto sims' bodies with thornowl's technique, and that's the lowest possible polycount for clothes. The accs are also low poly. The only meshed clothes are Ken's shirt and both rompers, which are also pretty low. The children's swimsuit's skirt is really low poly so I don't even consider it, and the hairs are also gameplay friendly, they're about 6K.
Some outfits (and the sunglasses) have some beachy and tropical vibes presets for you to choose from, including the romper's flamingo one and the children's swimsuit leafs one (main presets for both)! Of course, all of them have recolorable presets as well! I hope you like them!
The hat has three versions: one for adults, one for children and one for toddlers. They're all unissex and hat-slider compatible! I adapted the adults' version to the Brigitte hair, so it'll fit nicely without having to move the sliders!
The sunglasses have two versions: a regular one, that works just like usual glasses, and one that works like a hat, which means you can move with the hat slider. As seen on the preview, I already adapted it to the Barb hair, but you can use it on whatever hair you want with no problem!
Now come on Barbie let's go partyyy!

Adele's Super Chouette for TS3
As promised, Adele's Super Chouette is ready for TS3. Everything is tested by Graf Sisters. The only problem that I can think of is that I had to clone an ITF table because I couldn't find another object with 4 mesh groups. So if you don't have ITF, the coffee tables may not appear in your game.
And If you're aware of any base game object with 4 mesh groups, please inform me so I can try to make a more BG-friendly coffee table.
As usual, a few things to know before download:
The Loveseat is the master of textures for the armchair and sofa. I tried to lower the polys in low detail lods but they're higher than what's preferable.
Loveseat, Armchair, Sofa -> 4 Channels - 4 presets
Loveseat Polycount -> HLOD: 2276 MLOD: 1483
Armchair Polycount -> HLOD: 1324 MLOD: 886
Sofa Polycount -> HLOD: 3348 MLOD: 2029
Coffee tables use the same textures, but they're not dependent on each other in case you want one and not the other. The one with the brick is the original; I'm not a fan. So I made another one with metal legs. If you'll have both and merge your files, texture resources will be merged perfectly - having the same instance numbers.

Huge Wall Poster: I decided not to use Adele's art for the poster. Instead, I used art by Pixabay user 1tamara2 licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0. Note that these images are ai generated. If you have a problem with that, say, it reminds eerily of a work of an artist you know, please inform me.

I’ve also included the collection file which comes with its own icon for easy recognition. As always, I might have missed something; if you find anything weird don’t hesitate to tell me so I can try and fix it. I hope you’ll enjoy this beautiful set by talented Adele. Happy simming.
