TS3 useable snowboard half-pipe
I thought it would be fun to have this object in TS2, so I converted it. :)
Snowboard half-pipe can be found in hobbies/recreation and costs $5100. It can be used by teens and older Sims. It has 7948 polys. It’s not much in the case of this object - its footprint takes 33 tiles (11x3 tiles), but it takes actually much more space - 11x14 tiles, but I couldn’t create that big footprint, because SimPE was crashing. Unfortunately, because of it, Sims will walk through the half-pipe. Even though you can place the half-pipe partially outside the lot, don’t do it, because Sims need to have access to slots placed on the borders or the object. You’ll get an error if Sim can’t reach one of these slots. I even got an error when I put a fence to keep Sims from walking through the half-pipe. I don’t know how to fix that.
Snowboard half-pipe builds body skill. The more body skill points your Sim has, the more likely they are to perform more difficult tricks and less likely to fail.
This object doesn’t work perfectly. I’ve tried to get rid of weird spinning as much as I could, but two or three animations still have got some issues. Furthermore, with some animations snowboard is going to clip through the half-pipe.
Now let’s talk about snowboard.
There are two snowboards - TS3 one and the one made out of ice, because ice snowboard looks cool and can be useful for Iceman or some waterbenders. :) Both can be found in hobbies/recreation and cost $120. TS3 one has 908 polys and ice one has 1002 polys. Ice snowboard is a frankenmesh made from MCoC Iceman mesh extracted by SSingh551.
If your Sim has snowboard in their inventory, they will use that snowboard. E.g. if they have green snowboard, they will use green snowboard. Ice snowboard is prioritised over TS3 one, so if your Sim has both ice and TS3 one, they will use ice snowboard.
If your Sim doesn’t have any snowboard in their inventory, they’ll use default purple one. If you put snowboard on the ground, it sinks into the ground. Don’t be alarmed - I had to position it at some weird angle to match feet. Still, during some animations feet will clip through snowboard.
TS3 snowboard comes in 6 colors. One of them matches orange recolor of TS2 pre-order snowboard.

Pick’N’Mix’ shared showering compatibility plug-ins
@picknmixsims released useful shared showering mod, but unfortunately it conflicts with CJH’s joinable bath and @hexagonal-bipyramid‘s ecoFriendly_hydrophobic_showerAutonomy.
I made two plug-ins. The one for joinable bath should load after both shared showering and joinable bath mods. The one for shower autonomy should load after shared showering, but you should also delete original ecoFriendly_hydrophobic_showerAutonomy, because it has only one resource which is edited also by my plug-in.

Hafiseazale’s two TS3 Showtime deco conversions edited
I edited @hafiseazale‘s TS3 Showtime Stage Column Circuit Light and Stage Light Orb. Now they are animated, transparent and glow in the dark.
Forgive me this crappy gif, I’ve got no experience with gifs.
Last, but not least, I added morphs to chair/sofa stages of Satinistics sofa bed and Contempto Good Livin’ Chair Bed. Now they will animate when Sims sit down on them.
