Poster Collages on Butterfly Crawler

Never enough of poster collages for me, so I put together some ready-to-use ones and slapped them on the Free Time Butterfly Crawler mesh.

There are 28 variations. These collages use the work of 228 different artists; the archive includes full-sized swatches with artist names and a file with a link to each of them.

Full credit to the artists. None of the art is by me, and I don't make any profit from sharing these. Please see the links to check out other pieces by these people, I'm a big fan of their work!

Download (SFS) (alternate)

The files are compressed, Free Time is required. You can find add-ons for the butterfly crawler here and there.

I've tried to ensure no AI images are included. Please support human artists 💜

thinking about buzz beating up the curious brothers again. like what do you mean

but buzz is older than them?? time to dissect this (and by that i mean overly complicate it!!)

Making Sense of Buzz Grunt Beating the Shit Out of the Curious Brothers (and Loki)

I went into this assuming that, considering how old Buzz is, him beating up the Curious brothers + Loki as a teenager was statistically impossible, especially considering their age in actual human years—but was I wrong? Is it actually possible that Buzz did fight them within the time he spent as a teenager?

First, some supporting information.

Age Conversions Based on Adult Lifestage

Buzz: Day 14 or 43 years old Pascal: Day 10 or 38 years old Loki: Day 9 or 36 years old Vidcund: Day 6 or 32 years old Lazlo: Day 1 or 25 years old

These aren't even my own age headcanons for them (except Buzz's which is surprisingly accurate), just calculations. If you want to know how I got them then feel free to ask 😇

Evidence Provided by Memories

As seen in the picture, Buzz fought everyone "as soon as he aged up." However, it's possible he just has no memories of early teenhood.

Pascal similarly gained the memory as soon as he aged up. This idea is more plausible with him because he was accepted into private high school after the fact. Sure, in gameplay, this can happen as late as the last day as a teenager, but I doubt this is what Maxis was trying to convey since they literally handpicked these memories. Meaning: Buzz beat him up in middle school…?

Loki's only teen memory is losing the fight.

According to the Sims Wiki, Vidcund has no memory of Buzz beating him up (how hard did he hit him?)

Similar to Loki and Pascal, Lazlo's first memory as a teenager is getting beat up by Buzz.

Is This Possible In Normal Gameplay?

Disregarding any other family memories that arose around the time (I do NOT want to try to decipher the entire Curious timeline), the fight memories are in fact possible with their Sim ages.

The teen lifespan in The Sims 2 is 15 days long. Buzz is 4 days older than Pascal, 5 days older than Loki, 8 days older than Vidcund, and 13 days older than Lazlo.

Ensuring that everyone still falls within the teen lifestage, I made a table of the earliest and latest possible ages everyone could have been when Buzz attacked:

Converting their teen days into human years, Buzz either beat them all up as an 18 year old OR slowly picked them off until age 17 which is right before he kissed Lyla. None of this, however, is possible based on the initial age calculations.

Buzz's Attacks Based On the Adult Age Conversions

Buzz is 5 years older than Pascal, 7 years older than Loki, 11 years older than Vidcund, and 18 years older than Lazlo. There are two ways we can interpret their memories: either the Curious brothers + Loki were teenagers when Buzz attacked, or Buzz was a teenager when he started attacking them.

On the basis that Buzz is still a teenager, and assuming each fight happened in close proximity to one another, he specifically had to have been 18 years old when each one happened. This makes Pascal a 13 year old, Loki an 11 year old, Vidcund a 7 year old, and Lazlo…a newborn. ☠️ Alternatively, Buzz may have started younger and continued fighting until 18, the only teen year he could have possibly encountered Lazlo in.

If that seems implausible, then maybe Buzz wasn't a teenager and instead beat the boys up as soon as they turned thirteen. This would make him 18 for Pascal, 20 for Loki, 24 for Vidcund, and 31 for Lazlo. (Side note: Tank and Ripp would have been born by then.)

Conclusion

Regardless of whether you base it on Buzz been a teen or the victims being teens, him beating up Lazlo looks pretty bad. And if you go by gameplay rules, everything flows surprisingly well. According to normal gameplay AND real-life age conversions, Buzz is a big meanie who beat up at least one kid as a legal adult, at least with the age conversion system I used…

Me personally, I think he was college-aged when he started bullying them. (Or maybe they attacked him? Plot twist.) Of course, what I discussed weren't the only possibilities, but they should give a good idea of how things actually went… and maybe they can inspire your own headcanons! ^_^

this is such a useless pseudo-essay LMFAOO

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 ;)

Opening Valley | A Neighborhood Based on The Sims 2 Intro | No CC

I present to you the third and final version of my neighborhood OPENING VALLEY! This version fixes all reported problems of the previous hoods including problems with randomized names and the appearance of stealth families. In addition, I have added MEMORIES AND FAMILY STORIES to all  playable characters! This total remake was a big undertaking for myself and involved a lot of time to complete, so I hope you enjoy and download the new OPENING VALLEY!

Description:

Opening Valley is a town where you are sure to recognize many familiar faces! The neighborhood takes inspiration from the intro of The Sims 2, that everyone who has played the game has seen before. Every character shown in the intro has their own unique name, story, personality and relationships. Complete with descriptions for every character, the map also features all houses and public lots from the intro as well as an additional 12 unoccupied lots, and much much more!

Information about the translation:

You have two files available to choose for your download: the English version (N277) and the Polish version (N278). The Polish Version (N278) has all text translated into Polish, regardless of the language your game is set to (i.e. if your game is set to English, all descriptions will be written in Polish). The same is true for the English version (N277), everything is given the English translation (in all languages, including Polish). This allows you to play in any combination of languages you want!

Important: The Polish version keeps the names of sims, streets and the city itself original (in English), it just translates all of the descriptions (city, sims, households, public lots).

Do pobrania dostępne są dwa pliki do wyboru: wersja angielska (N277) oraz wersja polska (N278). Obie z tych wersji będą działały poprawnie bez względu na język gry (na przykład - po pobraniu polskiej wersji wszystkie opisy będą po polsku, nawet jeśli językiem gry jest angielski). Dzięki temu możliwa jest gra w dowolnej kombinacji języków!

Ważna informacja: W polskiej wersji pozostają oryginalne imiona i nazwiska simów, nazwy ulic i miasta (po angielsku). Przetłumaczone zostają wszystkie opisy (miasta, simów, rodzin, parceli publicznych).

This city contains:

12 Unoccupied Residential Lots

4 Empty Lots

5 Community Lots

10 Occupied Lots:

The Monet Family

The Tenorio Family

The Lotus Family

The Scientists

The Lincoln Family

The Pauvres Family

The Joy Family

The Cordial Family

The Amour Family

The McGreggor Family

Requirements:

This neighborhood was made in the Ultimate Collection, thus it needs ALL Expansion and Stuff Packs to work correctly.

Credits:

This map was made in its entirety by myself (and my boyfriend <3). None of the lots are premade or downloaded from other creators, however some lots do take inspiration from places in The Sims 3 (which you may recognize if you know that game well!).

Reporting Issues:

If you notice problems with any of the lots, characters or with the neighborhood in general, please contact me so that I may resolve the issue and update future versions.

The Sims 4 Main Menu Inspired by The Sims 2

I made an override for the newly refreshed main menu in TS4. The last played family shown as you open the game made me think of loading screen in The Sims 2, so i thought, why not?

The backgroud is heavily inspired by Sims 2 loading screen. I made the art myself and used the icons from The Sims 4, to match the game's aesthetic. The override only changes the background image in main menu.

Here are the screenshots of the home and store backgrounds:

This is the first time I made a CC to The Sims (and finished it) and tbh I have no idea if I did it right lmao, but at least I'm proud of myself.

Special thanks to:

amethystamanda for making a tutorial on how to make your own main menu background

28/01/2025 UPDATE

After latest update, the game started using backgrounds that are images downloaded via internet connection. They replace the default image or any main menu override.

However! LunarBritney made a MOD THAT DISABLES ONLINE BACKGROUNDS.

It will NOT conflict with my main menu override. I recommend downloading it!
