Yooo, I'm Casey. Not new to Tumblr. I just wanna start fresh again on a dead site because my old blogs were very disorganized.
I might mostly post TS2 related, which I'll tag it as such so you can view through my blogs easily. Maybe reblog music related shit.
Here's my linktree if you want to catch up with me on other social media. Just take note that I'm not very active on here or other social media at all due to adulthood lol.

I put together 150 random things to do – from romantic dates with vampires to going on a spending strike. There's room for drama, silliness, and unexpected twists 😈
Go here
How to play:
Hit the black "Spin" button and see what fate throws at you.
🗯 Works for Sims 2 and Sims 3 – probably also for Sims 4, since the tasks are fairly general
🗯 All expansions are recommended (because the list uses supernaturals, weather, pets, etc.)
THEY'RE HEREEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! Finally after so many hours of work they're here for download, there are some examples of the eyelashes moving with the eyes so you guys can get an idea of how they will look in your game. They're available from CF-EF under the GLASSES CATEGORY and they are all available in a black and brown swatch because us fair girlies are always left out, and I just want to give a HUGE shoutout to @applewatersugar for their help with morphs I couldn't have done it without them and @northernsiberiawinds for the amazing eyelashes for me to be able to convert. I know I'm biased but I feel that these are a MUST HAVE for sims 4 to 2 players and acc all sims 2 players in general because they're so stinking cute. Anyways previews under the cut and that's it ig 🥰🥰
For everyone who ‘used to love reading’ but now hasn’t finished a book in years, you CAN get it back. Genuinely start bringing a book (preferably short and either fiction or a non fiction topic you already really enjoy) everywhere you go and when you have 5-20 mins waiting for the bus or at the doctors office or mechanic or whatever, get out your book and read it! You don’t have to finish it quickly or even read it often but it is so good for your brain and fun to get into the habit of reading more (and replacing being on your phone for those moments).

Have you ever wondered why Bodyshop makes your PC work so hard?
BODYSHOP HAS NO FPS LIMIT
With limited frame rate, Bodyshop only puts a strain on PC when it loads CAS content. If your GPU fans go significantly faster the entire time you have Bodyshop open, then FPS is very likely way too high.
It's similar case for TS2 game - but FPS also depends on your system / PC /Laptop and the way you run TS2.
➤ To check FPS in the game, use a shortcut: Ctrl + Shift + S to bring up FPS HUD. FPS is displayed right in the upper left corner.
Tip: if FPS is changing too fast, take a few screenshots so you can read FPS from those
➤ If you set a limit to 60 FPS, that tells CPU/GPU to produce 60 game frames per second. This is the sensible number for TS2. Without FPS limit, your hardware is trying to put out frames as fast as it possibly can, heating up and using unnecessary amounts of energy.
The Sims 2 engine was not designed to run any higher than 100 FPS
➤ When you play The Sims 2 with TS2 RPC & borderless window, Windows Desktop Manager usually handles frame rates. Same for windowed TS2 Legacy edition. This is thanks to Vsync*, which forces desktop's default refresh rate on game window.
*In case of high-refresh gaming monitors / laptops, FPS limit imposed by Vsync may not be low enough for TS2.
*I showed a screenshot of my hood, but I recommend checking FPS in lot view, because in hood view, 'heavy' particle effects like clouds can dramatically slow down FPS even on a modern gaming GPU.
➤ On older gear, FPS may never go beyond ~70 even without the limit, but CPU / GPU still try hard to reach the unachievable frame rate.
Varying FPS numbers may be an indicator that the game is running uncapped, OR that the default frame rate is set too high for your system to handle.
➤ On modern gaming GPU, you'll have no problem telling the game runs uncapped - FPS in lot view usually oscillates between ~200 - 600.
➤ A few ways to set FPS limit:
Playing a game in windowed mode often solves high FPS issue. Unless you have a monitor with high refresh rate. But the general recommendation for old, uncapped DX9 games is: do not trust WDM, do not rely on Vsync, set a hard FPS limit.
If you use DXVK, you can set FPS cap in the DXVK config file, both for the game, and for Bodyshop (you pick the same 32-bit d3d9 version). *I've explained how I tweaked my DXVK's FPS in this post here.
If you don't use DXVK, and Windows Desktop Manager doesn't affect your game's FPS for some reason, or if you insist on playing fullscreen, you can set FPS limit for TS2 with driver-level GPU settings: Nvidia 3D program profile* / AMD adrenalin. Same applies to Bodyshop.
*Nvidia's global FPS cap may not work in fullscreen mode, often it's required to set FPS limit for TS2 exe specifically.
➤ In case of laptops using "Mux-less" or "Optimus" technology, the integrated Intel/AMD graphics card may be forcing FPS adjusted to screen refresh rate, ignoring Nvidia 3D profile's FPS limiter settings.
If so, you may need to use DXVK with FPS limit, or an external tool like Riva Tuner Statistics Server. RivaTuner apparently can make FPS feel smoother ;) It can be used along DXVK, too (but in that case you set limit with RTSS only, ofc).
TS2 game actually has the option to adjust screen refresh rate, it's in the middle of the graphic options tab. I was told that in the Legacy Edition, the Refresh Rate box is blank and permanently locked, meaning you cannot fix FPS inside the game menu.
I have Mr Dj's repack, and this box was always greyed out for me because I always used FPS cap. When I uncapped FPS, the refresh box became active, game allows me to switch between 59 and 60 mhz refresh options, but these do nothing. FPS stays at 80 for a while, then it goes uncapped.
Some say the Refresh Rate setting is broken in Legacy version, but ,more likely, it got disabled cuz it doesn't work anyway on modern systems.
🌵 New Mexico – A Custom Neighborhood for The Sims 2 [+Scripted Events]
I am thrilled to finally share my latest project with you: New Mexico, a custom neighborhood heavily inspired by the worlds of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul.
Step into a sun-scorched desert landscape where the laws are relative, and every Sim has a secret to hide. Experience everything from the high-stakes drama of the criminal underworld to quiet, yet suspicious, suburban lives.
[ DOWNLOAD (ENG) | MAINHOOD ]
[ POLISH VERSION | PL ]
🔍 What’s the Story?
The neighborhood is built around a central mystery involving the Gardeners' Club—a powerful organization rumored to be behind the strange disappearances of local teenagers. Between a corrupt Mayor, a fierce dietary war (chicken vs. vegetables!), and shady business deals, you’ll find plenty of drama to explore.
👥 The Cast of Characters
Meet the legendary families, fully recreated with custom memories, relationships, and skills:
The White Family: Walter, a brilliant but frustrated chemistry teacher, and his family.
The Salamanca Family: Led by uncle Hector, this ruthless clan controls the local "oregano" market.
The Schraders: Meet a tough DEA agent with a passion for minerals and his purple-obsessed wife.
The Pinkmans: Their rebellious son is desperately trying to escape his parents' strict expectations.
Saul Goodman: Albuquerque's most colorful lawyer who always has a "plan."
Gustavo Fring: Cold and professional, he runs a chicken empire as a brilliant front for his revenge ...and many more, including Mike Ehrmantraut, Kim Wexler, and even the crew from High School Musical!
🏘️ Locations
Explore custom-built lots, including:
Los Pollos Hermanos – Perfectly clean tables and a smiling staff hiding dark secrets.
The Dog House – The best hot dogs in town, but the atmosphere is thick with suspicion.
Belize Retirement Home – Is it just a peaceful place for seniors, or where the past finally catches up with its heroes?
Goodman’s Plaza – Paradise for shopaholics and home to a very "colorful" legal office.
Lavandería Brillante – This spotless industrial laundry definitely has nothing hidden in the basement...
⚙️ Technical Information
Compatibility: Created using The Sims 2: Ultimate Collection.
Features: Each Sim has a unique biography and a carefully crafted memory log to tell their story from the moment you start playing.
Important: For the best experience, I recommend using mods that prevent memory loss for townies and allow for viewing furnished apartments. (See ReadMe.txt)
Required content: This neighborhood utilizes items from The Sims 2 Store and Pre-order bonuses. To ensure all lots and Sims display correctly (please remember to delete the IKEA chairs), download the full collection here:

Preorder - Download
As a huge fan of the Breaking Bad & Better Call Saul universe, I’ve put a lot of heart into this project. I hope you have as much fun playing it as I had building it, and that you truly enjoy this journey to New Mexico!
NEW PLAYABLE HARP for Sims 2 (custom animation + sound)
Hello! I have finally completed this beautiful harp, and I am very excited to share it with all of you ~~ 💌 At first, I planned to make it for toddlers. Then I asked myself whether it could also work for adults — and ta-da ✨
These stunning animations come from The Sims 4 JaneSimsten's Playable Harp mod.
This harp will increase creativity skill and music enthusiasm.
Since it was cloned from a piano, this harp includes all the interactions that a piano has: Practice, Watch, Dance, Sing Along (for pets) v.v... However, I removed the Break, Tune/Uptune, Perform interaction because I didn't use Atavera and Argon's instrument hack, I just want my harp to play a few songs that I like, that’s all 😼
So, this harp will have 5 interactions for you to choose, including:
Practice (Gracefully)
Wedding (A Thousand Years by HarpistKT)
Classical (Moonlight Sonata by HarpistKT)
Fantasy (Suteki Da Ne by Arnaud Bannier)
Fairytale (Merry-Go-Round of Life by harpsona)
The animation will play randomly for each piece of music.
It would be amazing if the harp strings could move when Sims play it, but I’m not good at working with joints yet, so… sorry, you guys 🥺
Each interaction will correspond to one piece of music. I don't plan to have it run through a playlist. If you want to change them, it's much easier than editing a long playlist. You just need to replace the mp3 file with the group B3CD.
Because the harp is so beautiful, I kind of got carried away and ended up making quite a lot of recolors 😅. There are 12 recolors in total, including: maple (mesh), mahogany, dark metal, deep blue, dark green, silver, ivory marble, rose gold, golden, deep red, blue-purple ombre, and baby pink (a special color made for my friend — she really loves pink 🎀).
Since the textures are 1024×1024, I didn’t merge the mesh and the recolors into a single file. If there’s any recolor you don’t like, you can safely delete it without affecting anything else.
Poly count: 8k
Note: You have to keep all mesh, recolor and sound file in the download folder to make it works well in game, if there is any problem with my cc, pls pm me :3
Thank for @jacky93sims, for helping me fix the sound file issue. Without her help, this harp would be playing piano sounds by now :D
Mesh and texture made by me (renalp96) ✨✨
