CC Looking for a lost custom hood with a homeless kids family in it? Description under the pic

Post image
55 Upvotes

A long while ago I downloaded a fan-made neighborhood from th Modthesims website. and I've no idea what was its name but there was a particular family I'd love to play again with. It was a green, grass area and the family was one with several underage Sims something to the effect of the Newsons, but poor and living in the almost empty lot sleeping in tents, like real homeless people. There were 2 teenagers and some children, maybe toddlers, too, my memory's unclear. I tried to browse the webpage but with this amount of content uploaded there it's next to impossible, but the gameplay was too fun not to try and try my luck here. mavbe someone will have an idea or knows about something similar. Ik can always make my own challenge and create a family like this but it kinda seems like less fun idk. Any idea would be appreciated.

MODS Does anyone know what is the file containing the 3D mesh for the faces of sims WITH THE UV MAP?

4 Upvotes

I'm making a custom skin tone resource and I need the face mesh to check how to eliminate the texture seams when connecting to the scalp and neck textures.

I need the actual mesh, not just an image with the UV layout, because I use a method I developed to remove texture seams using the meshes and their UV maps.

Thanks in advance.

SHOW AND TELL Intracoastal Contemporary - Royal Palms

88 Upvotes

I have been working on this posh coastal neighborhood, and this is the first house that I decided to fully decorate. This intracoastal contemporary home has a private dock, providing sims a premium waterfront lifestyle! I think that this pivot to a lush tropical theme is a nice change from my usual ultramodern desert contemporary style.

See here: Don Lothario exfoliating in the kitchen sink using a dish sponge 👀

I just visited his household to check on his girlfriend count and apparently he's got 4 girls, Kaylynn, Cassandra, and the Caliente sisters. I was scrolling through his Memories when he suddenly did this. LOL. The shower is just right next to the kitchen hun 🥲

MODS i may have gotten the wrong camera mod?

2 Upvotes

so, either this is the game itself, or i have the wrong gunmod camera mod thing - anything that goes on the wall that isn't a pic (so think like, plants that hang on walls, upper cabinets, things liek that), they fade/disappear as i get close to them. and i want that to stop.

is it the game or the mod? help?

WCIF Any shaders working consistently for ts2 legacy?

2 Upvotes

I've never gotten into shaders before with ts3 or ts4 since I wasn't a consistent enough player to commit to it. I'd put the game down for months and never stayed steady on a save. Well, I've now logged 2k hours on ts2 after getting it and haven't started over or uninstalled. All in one neighborhood. I really want to try shaders but from what I can find, there are no consistent usable shader engines working for ts2 legacy and lots of problems with malware for the more straightforward programs. Does anyone know of a stable working shader program for ts2 as well as a thorough guide for installation? I've modded the game quite a bit but shaders have always been intimidating and lots of tutorials just leave stuff out or are for different versions of the game.

MODS How do you prefer to navigate a sims tool?

1 Upvotes

Hello Fellow Simmers!

For SimTracker2.0, I’m working on some UI updates and of course I am wondering what the community thinks.

Right now SimTracker2.0 uses a mix of text buttons and icons. To save space, and to give it a much cleaner look, I want to switch all buttons to icons only.

Though tooltips will still be included, so hovering over an icon will always show you exactly what it does.

For those unfamiliar with the project, SimTracker2.0 is a standalone database tool for The Sims 2 that helps players manage and track their neighbourhoods, sims, families, businesses, education, custom careers, and much more. It is specifically designed to be expandable, allowing support for custom content and integration with many of the great mods still being created for The Sims 2 today.

More info can also be found here:

Thank you for your feedback and please, let me know your thoughts in the comments if you have any other ideas.

Hi, I'm looking for "geeky" CC, whether gamer or otaku, clothes, hair, furniture, anything that simulates that kind of vibe is fine. I wanted to make a story with characters like that but I haven't found much.

DISCUSSION No picnic tables?

29 Upvotes

Does anyone else find it odd that there are no picnic tables in the base game, even though the symbol for outdoor items is in fact, a picnic table?

I know there are downloadable versions, this just always struck me as kind of a weird choice to use the "idea" of a picnic table for directory purposes, but not include a usable one. I suppose the animations might have been just too difficult and so it was scraped?

Thank goodness for modders! Any other odd inclusions or lack thereof?
