I have started converting my The Sims 2 CC to The Sims 4! 💜
I'm finally started converting my TS2 content to TS4 - and I'm pleasantly surprised at how great it looks in the updated format. It's really interesting seeing familiar models come alive in a modern game.
Working with the new programs was unusual at first - I'm mostly used to using 3ds Max and now I'm gradually learning Blender. To be honest, it was strange at first, but it was also genuinely interesting - I dove into tons of tutorials and learned new tools and processes that I had barely touched before.
I've also updated my posts - now each post has clear labels, so it's easy to know what content it is and which Sims game it's for.
The work takes time but the process has been truly inspiring.
I will gradually convert everything I can and share the results as I go.
Thank you for following me and supporting me! 💜
The first reblog of the updated post was already published! 💜

Bundles of newspapers (separate floor decor; REPO)
Fireplace tools
Bonus object for "Shelve with a Fireplace" (REPO, decor 1x1)

"Books & Folders" (decor) recolors:
"Shelve with a Fireplace" tutorial & recolors:
In the GIF, the "Painting" is placed using the code "moveobjects on", because it requires a wall.
You can place any other "wall objects" you want instead of this painting, using the code "moveobjects on" & "boolprop snapobjectstogrid false".
Result:
P.S. There is a small issues with the "poke animation". Unfortunately, I was not able to correct it. Maybe in the future, I will be able to find a solution and update it.
Bonus object for "Shelve with a Fireplace":
As a bonus, I’ve created an additional decorative object designed for double-height, open-plan rooms.
It neatly caps the top of the fireplace, preventing the chimney opening from being visible when the fireplace is placed in rooms with high ceilings or open upper levels.

Deflated sports balls: Basketball ball (MASTER), American football ball (REPO)
Cinderblock (walls - 3 variations/9 parts)
Court wood (floor 5x5 - TS2; floor 2x2 - TS4)
Mascot (floor overlay: TS2 - 7x7, TS4 - 5x5)
! MASTERS & REPOs only in TS2
I don't know if there is a similar technique in The Sims 4, but if you know where it can be studied, please share a link 💜
Walls:
I created three types of wall coverings, each of them is divided into three parts.
Floor:
I made vertical and horizontal versions of the floor, because depending on the orientation of the lot in the neighborhood, its direction changes. Since this floor covering is 5x5, can't be rotated using the "<" and ">".
Mascot (floor overlay):
Basketball hoop recolors:
TUTORIAL:
I created an additional invisible recolor of the original Maxis object
Use moveobjects on code

Well, I spent a couple of days trying to animate this clock. But unfortunately, I didn't have enough skills to pull it off yet, so the clock remained static. Perhaps in the future there will be updates, but I needed time to master those new skills.
