Hi! I'm Jeb (He/They). I'm 30 and I create CC for The Sims 2 and, occasionally, The Sims 4! My CC tag is #s2cc or #s4cc. Find more of my stuff at my LJ or Dreamwidth.
Bring out your flippers and fins:
it is mermaid time again!
Mermaids are in my opinion one of the most neglected occults in TS4. Aliens have at least some furniture for them and plant sims got a a little something in EBN, but what do the fishies get? Nothing, really, so I love to go nuts once a year and fully fall into #mermay to fill that void in my heart. This time the set is more nautical inspired. Think of an houseboat.

I went for the usual living-sleeping-dining combo again here, but the stuff is designed to blend well enough with other CC and official game objects so you shouldn't have any problems finding places for it. Notable here are the glass walls I used textures from TS2 for. I'm also in love with how the rugs turned out.
As you all know, you get this

Note: this was made with game ver. 1.119.109.1020, so if you are a few patches behind you can safely use this without updating.
In case you missed it, this beach cottage I made for The Sims 2 is available for download on ModTheSims! It’s the perfect cozy getaway for Sims who love the coastal style.
"Por si no la habías visto, ya puedes bajarte esta casita de playa que construí para Los Sims 2 en ModTheSims. Es el refugio perfecto para esos Sims que buscan relax y vibras playeras."
2 dining chairs and 2 living chairs. The glass parts are repo'd to the vase of the OFB Daisy Bouquet, the metal parts are repo'd to the inner subset of the BG Manor House mirror. I didn't change the guids or filenames, let these overwrite the originals if you have them

A MidCentury Contemporary/Modern
3 bedrooms - 2.5 bathrooms - oversized garage - multiple terraces
sunken living room - room for hobbies - laundry area - hot tub - junker car

This series of houses is built from plans by Richard B. Pollman (1914-1980,) and are a part of his Designs for Convenient Living - specifically from Portfolio #43. (I couldn't find an exact publication date for Portfolio #43; but Portfolio #45 was published in 1963, and Portfolio #47 was published in 1966. So I think it is safe to say this was probably in 1961-62-ish?)
9 Midcentury Posters on Crisps&Kerosene’s World of Wonder mesh.
If you are interested at all in graphic design, you have to check out the Letterform Archive, which has an amazing collection of stuff. These posters are all from different type specimens, posters and typewriter manuals they’ve posted (to which I edited).
They’re on C&K’s World of Wonder wall art mesh, which is so good. I’m including the mesh in the download, but you should really check out C&K’s so you can get all the recolors of the frame.
I have so many edits to share and Idk where to start, so, why not start with the bare minimum a stove?
This is the halo stove from pet stories (from here), but with clear glass! Meant to be used alongside @stinkyunicorn's clear glass defaults and slig's clear windows. This is how it originally looked:
That's turquoise!
Other edits I know of are @shastakiss' cottage build + roof-thingies, @dramallamadingdang's manor house table and @tvickiesims holy smoke stairs.
Compressed and no mipmaps as usual!
DOWNLOAD: SFS
Credits: @stinkyunicorn for the clear glass txmt, Argon/Lord Darcy/Havelock for converting, and lastly, Maxis.
CTNutmegger's 1x2 tablecloth with sheer rose pattern textures in 4 colours! It's got a little hem detail at the bottom of the texture, but I've found it's not very visible on every mesh; it looks pretty good on curtain addons, though. Shown on Hokadk47's 1x1 addon. There's a swatch and CTN's 1x2 mesh in the RAR ^^
This release adds more depth and expands several core systems at once, laying important groundwork for future updates.
There’s still plenty to refine, so if you notice anything that doesn’t work as expected, behaves oddly, or could be improved, feel free to let me know. Even small observations help a lot in making the next versions more stable and complete.
Happy testing pre-beta v6 - Enjoy exploring the new systems!
PS: Summer break is coming up, so the next big update might take a bit longer than usual. That said, I’ll still be around, and I’ll be working on other Sims projects in the meantime (more like a dev break than a summer break 😄)
A maxis-matchy wedding gown! It's a mashup of the Short Wedding Dress from celebrations and Skell's age conversion of the Flower Girl dress (also from celebrations). AF only, has all morphs. I made 5 recolors, but here's the PSD for recoloring :)
Hello fellow Aussie simmers (and others too of course!)
Ever wished for some really Australian looking trees for the Sims 2? Me too.
I have finally overcome my fear of trees, with much support from amazing friends like @tvickiesims, and would like to share some gifts with you all.
Read on below
Firstly, a while ago, @jacky93sims fulfilled a request to convert some Yeronga Trees. I've taken those, recoloured them a little (cos they were a bit too "green" lol) and made hood deco versions too.
Hood deco:
Lot versions:
These are super pretty, I quite love them.
Next, I found a free model online for a Ghost Gum tree and went "ohhhh, pretty!!!!" and made that into a hood & lot tree.
Lot version is on the left:
Hood version is the 2nd from the left:
Then, I got my fingers into the amazing, wonderful work of Tvickiesims, and I messed around with a buuuuuuunch of trees, mostly just re-sizing and retexturing things. I would like to give a HUGE shoutout to Vickie for ALL of her amazing trees and her support during my project.
I messed with 2 previously done Eucalyptus tree conversions -
Lot view:
Hood view:
I messed around with a cute little "Mimosa tree" and made it into a Golden Wattle tree that flowers in winter (no snow) and spring -
Hood view:
And Lot view in 2 sizes:
Non-flowering state:
I messed around with a conversion from Adventure Awaits that kind of looked like a bottlebrush tree and made it look a bit more like a bottle brush tree, this one is for lots only:
I messed around with the "Mighty Hawthorn Tree" and made it into a "Mighty Gum Tree" instead - on the right
I messed around with Vickie's 4t2 Batuu tree conversion and made it into another gum tree:
Aaaaand I messed with a "rainbow gum" conversion of hers too and retextured and re-sized it - 2nd on the right:
I also took a tree she'd done called the Salix tree and made a slightly larger hood deco version cos I thought it looked a bit like a peppercorn tree, which is technically a South American tree but these are alll over NSW:
I, erm, may have gotten a little carried away.
The fun thing about Australian gums is that there's
a) a million different varieties, and
b) they're all super unique, so I felt like I needed many different tree models😂
Here are some IRL pics of some beautiful gums that I took for inspo while I was working on this project:
Just in case you've never really seen a great big old Australian Gum Tree before 😊 They can be quite huge and rather spectacular!
All trees are "seasonal" as in they have snowy states and should not flash blue in any season (hopefully), and some have flowering states in select seasons. However, Eucalyptus / Gum trees are evergreen so don't change colour or lose their leaves in autumn and tend to stay about the same year-round, so the season variability is fairly low 😊
So, if you'd like to download my trees: here are some links.
Same thing as my first batch of recolors, it's the FT Dala Horse made to look like 80s/90s My Little Pony figures. Again used TS2 icons as the cutie marks, mostly Aspirations and then a few misc. ones like wants/turn-ons/offs/supernaturals.
Also like last time, there's some blurriness/pixelation because the texture is 128px. I didn't upscale it as the figure itself is not that big, so during typical gameplay I don't think the blurriness/pixelation is that noticeable.
I asked, and JFade has given me permission to add a plugin to SimPE that is, essentially, his Collection Creator.
Welcome to DJS Sims!
It is not ready yet, but will be soon. Today was spent updating the MaxisObjectList. In 2007, there was no Bon Voyage, no Celebrations, no Teen Style Stuff, no Free Time, no Apartment Life, no Kitchen and Bath Stuff, no Ikea Stuff, no H&M Stuff, no Mansions and Gardens. So all the objects from all those EPs and SPs had to be added.
The plugin is mostly done. I still have to implement batch add, and a couple other loose ends. I really hoped to be able to alter the app so that you did not have to add the original object to include a recolor in a collection. Due to how the game and SimPE “see” objects it was not possible.
I will keep pushing on. While Mac simmers will never get true parity of Sims 2utilities, I have been doing what I can to level that playing field. So, my Mac Simmers, go make something using the tools you now have!
"listen to story/kids read to toddlers/read book autonomously" made compatible with "study all skills from books"
this is actually included in the stuff i shared on GoS for the june event, but i made a separate post for it here on tumblr because it's quite different from the other two. and also the first mod edit i've ever shared!
this is an edit to @earlypleasantview's listen to story/kids read to toddlers/read book autonomously to make it compatible with @midgethetree's study all skills from books (autonomous-scienceenthusiasmfromcleaning version).
remove earlypleasantview's mod and replace it with my edited version, then make sure it loads AFTER midge's mod. also be sure to remove mrclopes' read books autonomously if you have that, since epv already included it in her mod.
huge thanks and credit to treehawk @ the sims crafters discord for guiding me through this!
This is a set of 10 non-default face templates commissioned by the lovely @erekiio! Some faces are new combinations of maxis sims, while others are templates from v1 of my default set that did not make it to v2. Included are optional files for the infant age stage.
