Stylish Wall Sconce [BV] Fix

Default mesh / TXMT replacement

Download: SFS | BOX

This wall light came with Bon Voyage EP - and as is the case with most BV lights, lampshades don't lit up.

This is mostly GMDC / TXMT edit plus new lit black & lit white lampshade texture. Mesh is slightly lowered and a little smaller than original, polycount unchanged.

Enjoy!

*This is for The Sims 2

TrekBuks Bookcase from Apartment Life, remapped and recolored!

All this talking about books and bookcases got me looking for books not yet recolored and I realised this bookcase was being chronically ignored by everyone which makes sense, I mean, it is more bookcase than books. It's a typical bookcase for people who don't read.😄

But it looks pretty and it is actually pretty easy to recolor, so:

I remapped and repositoried the books to the Cinderbooks Bookcase so I didn't have to recolor books again. Which would have been a lot quicker in hindsight but who cares at this point, what has been done is done.🤡 This means that if you have my Cinderbooks Bookcase recolors I did earlier, the new textures will fit prettily on this bookcase as well. The red bookcase on the first picture shows the new Cinderbooks Bookcase Maxis textures. If you need more, these ones from plasticbox will work too. If you don't want to see the Maxis texture at all, Vickie has you covered with her defaults.

Important! My file (LotteTrekBuksBookcaseUVMapEdit.package) will conflict with CEP if you have it. That is why my file should load after the _EnableColorOptionsGMND.package that you placed in the downloads folder for CEP. I don't remember exactly where CEP puts that file but one way to make sure my file does not conflict is to put it in a folder lower than the one for _EnableColorOptionsGMND.package. For example; put that file in a folder named A and my file in a folder named B and it will load after it.

I've also made recolors in the usual Cluedo Woods and Colors. I liked both white and black metal for the rods so all recolors come with both versions (the one with 1 behind the name are white rods and 2 are the black rods). I have also included a file to replace the four default options if you so wish (see last picture to see which replaces which).

It is possible to use my recolors and not download my remapping file, it is completely optional to use both!

I wanted to try something so here are default replacements for all the cans I know of, using models from Animal Crossing: New Horizons. I have replaced the Base Game Instant Meal and Juice (from, you know, the snack menu), the FreeTime Protein Shake and the Apartment Life vending machine drinks. Like this.

There were several good options for the fridge juice so instead of picking one, or making you pick one, I made a mod that gives you a random option out of three.

Download: SFS

Known issues:

The cans don't always fit great in the hand. I believe that this is also an issue with the original models.

The thumbnails in the action queue and thought bubbles do not update. I have my objects.package set to read-only and that might be why, but I don't know for sure.

The updated vending machine drinks only have names in English and Swedish. If you play in another language, the name will be displayed in English.

H&M Banner improvements

A somewhat odd creation from me, but! I have been really enjoying posing and creating poses, and in that process it dawned on me that it would be fun to have pictures of actual Sims in my clothing stores instead of the semi-ugly stuff that EA gave us. My friend at @kashmiresims was kind enough to pose out a bunch of her lovely townies for some recolors, but when I went to recolor the banner I discovered EA made the texture square. And to fit the Sim in that square, they chopped the legs off and placed them horizontally. I refuse to continue this folly, so off to fix it I went! I have three things for you today :)

1. A default replacement of the original banner, with improved mapping so that the texture is straight and easier to recolor. It was 256x256, now it is 128x512 so same total amount of pixels, it is just long instead of square. I've included redone versions of the original recolors, so they will look the same. However, if you had other custom recolors, they will be broken. Sorry, can't do anything about that unfortunately.

2. I made an add-on mesh that hangs lower because I find the original sits too high to be easy to use in most stores. It is repositoried to the original. Required the default, mapping will be wrong if you don't use the default.

3. 10 additional recolors sporting various sims from the lovely region of Kashmire, coming to your hood with their newest ad campaign. Seen in a store above, swatch below.

Installation instructions: Default file goes in zCEP-EXTRA folder in your documents The Sims 2 folder, recolors and add-on mesh goes in Downloads. Can place default in downloads too, but you won't be able to make recolors.

Download everything - Dropbox (SFS is down :() Download only meshes - Dropbox

Credits: Kashmiresims for the lovely pictures used for the recolors, as well as helping me fix the maxis recolors without them getting blurry. Thank you! :) @gayars who gave info on and tested getting SimPE to pick up on the new texture. @latmosims and @morepopcorn who taught me how to map things in Blender making this creation a possibility for me to do :)

Hear Ye, Hear Ye- JRPG-Style Newspaper Default

Sunni's medieval newspaper default is fantastic, but it didn't really fit in my game. So I made another medieval newspaper default! This one's meant to look like something out of a JRPG.

This one's cloned from @episims default newspaper- which has become my favourite newspaper default mesh, btw. It's meant to look like rag paper, which was pretty common for early modern broadsheets.

The text is written in fonts from the Legend of Zelda series- the headline font is Hylian from Breath of the Wild, and the body text is from Ocarina of Time.

The non-sim images, and the small ads on the front page of the newspaper, are taken from the Octopath Traveler games. The Sim images are mine, from my ongoing @kingdomofwildwood story. We've got Queen Yovia, and a couple characters you may recognize later.

Newspaper has a clean and dirty state, and has all EP functions.

Here are a few replacements for TS2 engagement ring - I've also included my edit of Ring stones by color traits mod by @episims (tweaked stone colors) - it requires Epi's color traits.

Note/update: Epi has shared an alternative version of ring stones by color traits - with added wedding ring stones using my stone colors, so if you like the idea of decorated wedding rings, check it out.

TS2 Engagement Ring Defaults

Download: MEGA | SFS

Ring polycount: 596 (original is around 390).

Each replacement (ring band color, ring mesh) is optional, and compatible with stones by color traits mod.

[NOTE]: if you get a glitch where rings become rotated, I recommend Epi's ring updater to solve that issue. FYI the replacements don't affect ring rotation, glitch also happens in unmodded game.

Epi's colour traits mod requires Easy Inventory Check mod by @hexagonal-bipyramid - it is included. You need Nightlife EP or later EPs for it to work.

Pics feature my ring box default.

*If you're looking for wedding ring defaults, I've shared some here, and Epi has made five using my engagement ring metal colors.

Enjoy!

[TS2-BG] Filled Snack Bags

Always seemed odd to me, how the snack bags were empty and my sims basically ate nothing, but a half of a lays chips bag... So, with this mod your sims can eat actual (junk) food now!

☆ In-Game Pictures ☆

☆ Informations ☆ - Mod's polycount: 1,6k poly (chips) / 1,8k poly (cookies) - Original polycount: 1,2k poly (chips & cookies) - Compressed - This is a mesh default replacement! - Bag texture default replacement compatible! (as seen in the in-game picture above)

I've finished recoloring the FreeTime appliances (+ a matching Super Sucker Vent)! As usual, they come in the 10 Cluedo Colors.

The list of items recolored in this set (FreeTime required):

Char-Pane Grill

CryonicFresh

Deluxe Coffee Maker by YouBrew

EliteChef Home Range

Frugal Fruitlover's Friend

Gravitrash by Jackson Compaction

The Dish De-atomizer

The Nanowaver

Timeless Toaster Oven

And from Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff:

Super Sucker Vent

They are very shiny so they might look a little lighter than usual Cluedo Colors in brightly lit spaces. The Char-Pane Grill is a little darker because when placed outside it looked ridiculously bright otherwise. Dirty states for the stove are included.

As my poll showed, people hated my green people were divided about the display colors so I've decided to make three versions for the three different display colors (blue, green and grey). The recolors are compatible with each other so you can have 30 different recolors for each item if you want too (I won't judge you). Might be handy too if you want to compare them in-game.

Default options are included if you want to replace the original colors. These also come in the three different display versions and use the colors green, peacock, scarlet and white. I have not made a default replacement for the Super Sucker Vent because it's not really a part of the FreeTime set and I didn't know what colors I would use. (I've also already made 3 different default replacements for it.)

Download (grey display version)

And if you're not interested in the recolors but would like a clear glass default, just download this file (clear glass is already included in the downloads above).

Download (clear glass default for Frugal Fruitlover's Friend)

Last but not least, if you hate all three display colors or if you had hoped I would have done more colors for these items (I wanted to initially but it became too much work with the different displays) then I have some good news for you! I have cleaned up my .psd files for all these ten items and made it a nice little folder for you to download and recolor them so you can make more yourself.

Here's a default replacement for "Thirsty" the bath mat and Modern Sous Chef Rug using simple bath mat and Mom's kitchen mat from Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Had I spent like 3 more seconds looking, I would've picked a different kitchen mat but whatever.

Advent gifts out in the wild! Thank you everyone for participating!

To the ones who missed out the 12-day event, or just wanted to revisit the goodies, here's everything under one post. Enjoy! 🎅

More info below the cut..

🎄 DAY 1: 2to3 Kitchen & Bath "Tres Rugs by Sleek Sensations"

This rug actually has five presets (I said only four in the advent post *facepalm*), where one preset has only one channel, three have varying color channels, and another one that is not recolorable. Found in Decor > Rugs, costs §430.

🎄 DAY 2: Cozy Patio Table

I made this table using the legs from the "Deluxe Cozy Terrarium" from Outdoor Living, then put a glass top and voila! A cozy patio table. Five slots as with any 1x1 dining table with one channel. Found in Surfaces > Dining Tables, costs §200.

🎄 DAY 3: 4to3 Snowy Escape "Bamboo Forest Fence"

Yep, we are still lacking various fences in TS3, hence converting this gem from Snowy Escape. Three channels, costs §25. Found in Build mode > Fences.

🎄 DAY 4: 4to3 "RAW Utensil Holder"

For the clutter lovers, here's something for your kitchen, if you also love the industrial accents from TS4 like me. Four channels, costs §430, found in Decor > Sculptures, Misc.

🎄 DAY 5: 2to3 Kitchen & Bath "FaceBowl by Sleek Sensations"

This conversion took almost a year in the making and thought would never get finished, but here it is, finally ready to conquer your bathrooms! Four channels, costs §670, found in Plumbing > Sinks.

🎄 DAY 6: Outdoor Living "Class-E Dining Table" Unornated

I love the stuff from Outdoor Living, but why didn't EA make un-ornated versions of the furniture for variety? And so I did the work. Same channels and slots as the original, only differs in price which is now §825. Found in Surfaces > Dining tables. Outdoor Living not required.

🎄 DAY 7: 2to3 Apartment Life "BLOK Jr. Block from COGnition"

I miss the industrial/gearhead aesthetic from TS2:AL and this wall is one of those, so I converted it. Three channels, costs §11, found in Walls > Panelling.

🎄 DAY 8: Outdoor Living "The Poet's Respite" Unornated

Another un-ornated piece of furniture from Outdoor Living (I just couldn't stand the cursive elements sometimes @.@). Lowered the price to §300, everything else is left intact. Outdoor Living is also not required.

🎄 DAY 9: 2to3 Kitchen & Bath "Pots Descending from Ceiling"

I hate repeating myself, but yeah it's nostalgia that's the main reason why I convert 2to3 items. Especially from this stuff pack, I'd love to convert everything else left unconverted from it (but the counters stop me from doing so). Two channels, costs §160, found in Decor > Sculptures, Misc.

🎄 DAY 10: 4to3 Max20 Shark Plush Toy

I've been pondering if I should put this one up for download, because I couldn't find the original cc post to link. But having seen this 4to2 conversion, I figured I should also share it. Two channels, costs §100, found in Decor > Misc, Kids > Misc. Credits to Max20 for the original TS4 creation.

Fun fact: I own a real life counterpart of this plushie (I got this as a secret santa gift), and now my cat has already claimed it as his property. 🐱🦈

🎄 DAY 11: Ambitions "Le Sconce" made fully CAStable

I hate it when EA decides to make an object part unrecolorable when there are actually many ways to redesign it, like in this default replacement I did on a mirror. This wall lamp now has the emblem CAStable, and also edited the mask into three channels for a more versatile recolorability. This is a default replacement, so you need Ambitions for this to work properly.

🎄 DAY 12: 4to3 "The Centurion"

Need something to fill your dining room but too lazy to decorate it using shelves and clutter? Say no more! This pre-decorated hutch from TS4 is now also available for TS3! Three channels, costs a hefty §1880 (why EA?), found in Decor > Sculptures.

POLYCOUNT INFO:

Tres Rugs by Sleek Sensations: 80 (hLOD)

Cozy Patio Table: 526 (hLOD)/220 (mLOD)

Bamboo Forest Fence: 44 (main)/48 (diagonal)/12 (post)

SimPrint | Newspapers, payphones, and extras for TS3!

The SimTimes finally found room in their budget for color printing of their newspapers! The bad news is, no one reads them anymore. Maybe they'll start now? In other news, The SimNation Telecom Company has been required by law to reactivate disconnected payphones to promote accessiblity to phone connectivity for all. Here's a quarter - go tell someone who might care! Important info and download 💾 under the cut:

This is an assortment of items that I worked on in 2022 and 2023. Most of this is comprised of different newspaper default replacement sets, the textures of which I converted from a few different creators. Additionally, you will find a few different things here... STC Payphone - Network Connected Original creator: Grande Lama I made this phone fully functional, and added geostates for when the phone is in use and when the handset is back on the hook. I also made this phone available in the in-game world editor, and it's flagged for use in CAW as well, so you can place it in your CAW metadata and use in worlds. It does function off-lot (as photographed!)

Crosley Simlish Serenity Payphone Original creator: ArwenKaboom (for The Sims 4 @TSR) I converted this phone and made it fully functional, and like the abovementioned phone, added geostates. I also added Simlish textures for all of the details and writing on the phone. I included the English ones too for those who might prefer them.

Functional Newspaper Stands and Dispensers Original creators: ATS3, phoebejay, alienpod, Episims, VeganKaktus, Budgie I figured I'd add the textures for the various newspapers to newspaper stands and dispensers that alienpod converted and added their textures to. They require the actual script from PhoebeJay to work. Without it, they will be decorative items. They can also be placed off-lot in the in-game world editor or in CAW. PhoebeJay's mod Simlish Bus Texture Override Original creators: FreshPrince, Lyralei As someone who probably spent half of their uni years on public transit, I was so excited for Lyralei's Bus Manager mod and was happy to test it out while testing my tennis mod. At some point I did a quick Simlish recolor override for the signs, license plates, and side-wraps, and I figured I'd share it now with this set! Lyralei Bus Manager Mod I also threw in a few deco book objects I converted from TS2 quite a while ago that I enjoy using in my lots! The newspaper default replacement texture varieties come from the following TS2 creators: Alienpod: Newspaper Defaults Epi's Sims: Newspaper Default Replacements VeganKaktus: Newspaper Default Replacement

I included replacement textures for both the reading version and the folded up versions of the newspapers. Please note that, like with my tennis default replacements, you can only have one active newspaper default replacement in your game at once. Each default includes both the reading and matching folded version. The variety is there in case you would want to switch it up between different saves and/or worlds! Making these made me so nostalgic for the early 2000s...walking to the store with a payphone outside to make an important call and getting a coke ICEE for the journey to visit grandma who has a Crosley phone in her kitchen...our sims deserve that.

A Conversion of the Sims 3 Into the Future "Geyser Rift"

This was an unfinished project from 2018! (My previous version did not look very good.) It functions like the Nightlife Fire Jet, though I made it less likely to ignite Sims. I kept the original code for having multiple active instances of the object synchronize with each other, but I'm not sure it actually works. I added an additional ground element to the model, since TS2 doesn't handle partially masking a floor tile. That and the original mesh are separate subsets. As you can see, I made recolours of it matching the default terrain textures. The object is found under Decorative/Misc and costs 150$. -> Download at SimFileShare.

CDK/MoneyMAT: Cashpointe Set V2 – Trait-Based Autonomy

Published: 9-14-2024 | Updated: 2-11-2025 SUMMARY MoneyMAT is a collection of modified objects for financial operations and storytelling in your game. The series includes functional cash clutter, as well as tools for banking, loans, and investments. #CO2MONEYMAT This is a crossover with the #CO2CDKSERIES. Cubic Dynamics by John B. Cube and Marcel Dusims forged the future with furnishings that were minimalist in design and maximalist in erudite pretension. Generations later, the company continues to produce edge-of-cutting-edge designs. Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Sims 2 (EA/Maxis, 2004) by adding various currencies from the simsverse to your game – simoleons, magicoin, simoles, OMEGA, neo simoleons, simoleon sprouts, war simoleons, and more. Canon currencies and extra recolors allow you to create a color-coded banking/investment system. All items are grabbable, sellable and available in the catalog as well. Watch out for robbers! FEBRUARY 2025 UPDATE: VERSION 2 WITH TRAIT-BASED AUTONOMY! The original version allows sims to pocket items from this set if they’re left out in the open and aren’t marked for sale. In Version 2 (V2), sims won’t autonomously grab these items unless their FUN level is low (-80) AND they meet ONE of the following conditions: Theft Skill = 3 or higher Traits = Burglar, Deadbeat, Dread Pirate, Desperate, Joker/Harley Quinn (insane trait), Kleptomaniac, Poison Ivy, Ratchet, Rogue, Scammer, Scrub, Venom/Symbiote If you use default replacements for any of these traits, they should work if the GUID has not been changed. Required fun/skill levels can be tuned in the “Action Variables” BCON using simPE.

TS2: Lingerie Mannequins by Locarik

I happened upon these amazing meshes years ago after I downloaded a few lots from Cradle of Darkness (I'm not sure which one, but I think it was one of Maryata's) and I've been obsessed with them ever since.

They have these soulless, dead eyes while also being in these flirty poses so they're sexy but also creepy. Sort of Victoria's Secret by way of Silent Hill.

I meant to release these back when I posted the Bella's Secret set, but life got in the way, so here we are now.

Nitty-gritty and link under the cut!

I believe Locarik is a Russian Simmer, but it doesn't seem like they've been active in a long time so I wanted to give these ladies a good scrub by updating them to be less resource intensive & more recolor friendly. GUIDs are unique so if you have the originals they can co-exist.

The original versions had a recolorable head and body, but the underwear was hard-painted on the body so each outfit recolor also included the skin pattern underneath (which made them huge files since skins are 1024x1024 by default).

I remade the meshes into new objects and I joined the head and body into one group (skin) and made a second layer just for clothes (lingerie). My skin file is a little clunky at 2048x1024 and has a lot of negative space, but if you're interested in recoloring the mannequins all you need to do is find your head & body of choice and plop them onto this template in Photoshop or GIMP (face images tend to be 512x512 and skins 1024x1024).

The lingerie subset can now use any Maxis underwear or bathing suits you already have, and your recolors will be a much more manageable file size.

But, a few caveats:

(1) The lingerie mesh is actually a bodysuit that ends at the thighs. Underwear textures with garters, leggings, thigh high socks etc. will get clipped on this mesh. Boyshorts should be okay, anything longer may look funky. I did try to make the lingerie subset extend down the legs to the feet, but the meshing was too chaotic to make it work.

(2) The crawling, sitting, and kneeling models are in pretty contorted poses so the textures get squiggly in some parts (especially bra straps). Your mileage may vary with more complicated or highly detailed textures.

(3) The standing mannequin is the PARENT object, the other three are CHILD meshes. Be sure to recolor the tallest gal in order to change the textures for all.

They'll be in General > Dressers for §299. I included the three recolors you see in the preview pics.

If you can read Russian and know where they live online, please let me know); Eir/Eir-Sims/Eir-Ung for the mannequin skin (I believe they are also permanently offline). SalixTree and Chibi Sylphe at Parsimonious for underwear textures; @gryning for an additional lingerie pattern.

Also wanted to shout out @cityof2morrow for their incredible Bella Brand sets. If you're looking for more lingerie retail objects they have everything you could possibly need!
