Hey, Cee here and I'm a variety content creator but I do a lot of Sims videos, and you can find a lot of them here:
But I also have some let's plays like all of the handheld spin-off games which I adore, some sims 1 nonsense, Castaway Stories and Pet Stories (I'll play Life Stories as well at some point), my Not So Berry Business challenge where I mixed two challenges together (still unfinished at the third/fourth generation unfortunately but my game started corrupting. Still pretty fun up to that point tho!), or my occult challenge in both The Sims 2 and 3 in which I collect all of the life states in the same family, among many other sims videos~
I don't only make sims videos though, I also showcase a large variety of different games every week, so there's bound to be something for you if you'd like to check the channel out~
I'm awful at self advertising so I'd love it if you gave my content a watch and let me know what you think 💛
Just putting this here so I can find it when I need it later cause I don't think they're on tumblr (or at least I haven't found them) but this Sims 1 creator's CC are incredible!
So Paralives came out while I was on vacation but I just could not wait to check it out until I went home so I used my friend's set-up to record a lil first impression video~
5 transformer cribs made from cribs by Simaddict99.
These are 2-in-1 crib/toddler beds. Just one click on the bed to convert it from one model to another. The crib can be used for babies and toddlers, the toddler bed is for toddlers only. They can use the toddler bed by themselves.
The cribs are all repo'd to the game files. They have a new guide, so you can keep the cribs and the transformercribs (if you want)
SA99-MissionStyleTransformerCrib needs OFB. Other parts HERE.
SA99-AtomicAgeTransformerCrib needs PETS. Other parts HERE.
SA99-SeasonMatchTransformerCrib needs SEASONS. Other HERE.

irl work in progress painting !!!! inspired by sims 3 late night :^) it's a rework of an older painting of the same concept. i'm painting in the gui too cuz i really like combining digital elements with traditional mediums.
Playing Sims 2 made me realize how limited social interactions were compared to other Sims titles. So after some tutorials, I made my very first mod: More Social Interactions!
Here are the list of interactions. Some are triggered by relationship dynamics so you won't see them all at once. There are no new animations, just more options for storytelling purposes.
Beg For Forgiveness
Compliment Outfit
Compliment Personality
Small Talk
Ask About Day
Deep Conversation
Good Night Kiss
Ask What Their Problem Is
Compliment Appearance
Talk About Music
Say "I Love You"
Hold Close
Argue About Parenting
Criticize WooHoo
Compliment Hair
Give Reassurance
Talk About Past
Argue About Money
Friendly "Say I Love You"
Talk About Weather
Big shoutout to picknmixsims, echo on MTS, and The Sims 2 Guru on YouTube for all of the help on pointing me in the right direction.
EDIT: This mod DOES CONFLICT with the following mods
CJH Visit Sims Walk to Lot
Midge's Child Witches
Child & Teen Plantsims
More joke telling options
Kids can walk to community lots
Any mod that alters the TTABs in the game
I'm workshopping a way to make this mod standalone so it doesn't have to rely on the TTAB function. But I don't know when that will be.
If anyone finds any other mods that conflict with this one, please let me know so I can update the list!
Author of the mod discovered that memory-usage-related pink soup is a result of an intentional safety check in the game's code, rather than a mistake in calculating texture memory.
So his experimental mod for TS2 RPC launcher basically tells the game to stop freaking out and turning stuff pink when shaders' memory usage goes over certain threshold. NOTE: it may get rid of the pink, but the game will still crash if you exceed 4GB limit.
There are two mod options to choose from:
Version 1 is more radical, it completely removes the safety check. You'll (probably) find out the shader's memory limit has been exceeded when your game crashes.
Version 2 is supposed to allow some pink soup at around 3.5 GB memory usage, near the danger zone, so you have time to act - so obviously, this one sounds more sensible.
And while I remain convinced that pink soup can occur because of other shader-related issues or f*cked-up memory settings, not just this "failsafe", if your game suffers from pink soup it's definitely worth a try!
🌵 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:

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!
I've always hated how the camera jumps up and down when playing tall and slim buildings. Turns out, it's really easy to fix! It’ll take you less than a minute. All the details under the cut.
All it takes is opening the LiveCamera.txt file in your Documents>Cameras folder with a text editor and changing these two parameters near the bottom to a higher value. Doesn’t matter if you're using a custom camera mod or not. Those parameters should be there. I have set mine like this (remember to save a backup just in case you don't like these changes).
It might seem a bit extreme, but I still think it’s fine.
-The top parameter, floorheightsamplerange, handles how much the floors “extend out”, so the camera object can stand on it mid-air. The higher it is, the further the floor will extend. This will make it so your camera will be able to stick to the floor you’re on, even if you pan away from the building. No more annoying jumps up and down!
-The parameter below that, floorheightsampleinnerrange, handles the transition between sticking to the current floor and dropping to the ground level once it goes past the edge. The higher it is, the smoothest the fall will be.
I’ll note though that the behaviour of these parameters might not be 100% accurate with how the game actually works, but from what I tested I think it’s pretty close as an explanation. If someone knows better how this Live Camera works, please let me know and I’ll try my best to correct any inaccuracies.
Save the .txt file and check how it works in game. It might feel weird at first, but personally I find it so much smoother and easier to handle. If you’re not happy with these values, close the game and edit those parameters until you find your sweet spot. Unfortunately, you will have to close and open the game every time you change it to check how it works.
There’s so many cool Custom Camera mods out there that I thought it’s probably better to just show how to edit those 2 parameters than editing and reuploading all of them.
So yeah, that’s it. Now you can play those tall lots without getting a headache. Go ahead and send your college simmies to that hideous Sim State Tower with a hot tub on top of it. Now you’ll be able to see what’s going on up there.
A while ago, @fwaysims made a cool mod to integrate ROS (Random Occurence Scenario) rolling into the game.
Many of you may know that I personally LOVE a good ROS roll for stirring the pot and shaking up the gameplay, but I wanted more control over the ROS generation. So, I have taken this concept an revamped it!
Behold, a super innocent looking garden plant! ... Which has the potential to kill your sims 😈 (if you decide to lol)
Read on below!
So, the ROS by default will roll every day, but under the "options" menu, you can change this:
You can have the ROS roll on the first day of each new season, every day (with configurable % chances), or if you disable both of these options, a new menu appears allowing you to set specific days of the week for the ROS to roll:
In my gameplay I roll the ROS on Tuesdays and Fridays, so in my game the settings look like this:
The ROS should roll at around 8am (configurable) on whatever days you choose, and give you a popup with the outcome:
Which you can choose to accept or re-roll.
The ROS comes pre-loaded with 100 different outcomes from my personal ROS, but this is all changeable within SimPE. Some outcomes require extra dice rolls or coin flips, some require specific mods, some will have instructions to re-roll if the result doesn't apply to your family, but ultimately it is UP TO YOU if you choose to engage with the ROS or not.
Nothing actually happens after the ROS, it's just a text notification giving you some fun gameplay opportunities 😊
In SimPE, you can configure many parts of the ROS:
The BCON titled "ROS Generator Options" allows you to:
Edit the % chance a ROS will generate (set to 100% by default)
Change the "roll hour" from 8am to something else of your choosing (in 24 hour format), and
Change how many possible ROS results there are. This ties into the next part of configurability:
The ROS outcomes themselves!
In Text Lists, Dialogue Strings, you will find all of the possible ROS outcomes. You are free to edit this to your liking, just dont change the first 3 lines as the dialogues depend on these.
To edit the lines, just click on any one and change what's in the "String" box.
If you do choose to change the outcomes, you'll want to keep note of how many possible outcomes you have (this can be as few or as many as you like), and then go back into the BCON and change line 3 to reflect your number of outcomes, minus 1. This is important for code purposes.
e.g. the default 100 outcomes has a 99 entered in the "Dec" box.
I made this mod because I was sick of forgetting to roll the ROS, and because I like having in-game ways to do things, check information, etc. Now I no longer have to exit the game, get my Google Doc up, and roll manually - it can all be done in game! Yay!
And of course you can turn it off for a while if you like, or just manually use the "Roll the ROS" interaction to roll it whenever you like!
(This was important to include for all the times my Twitch chat redeem extra ROS rolls, lol).
But wait, there's more!
I also did a medieval version... because, of course I did.
This version has slightly different outcomes:
Which often rely on objects from @sunmoon-starfactory mods, because, of course they do. I repo'd the object to Raynuss's Kitchen Fireplace Pots, because if a ROS is good for anything, its good for stirring the pot... *ba dum tss*
I included the required set master for your convenience, but you can download the full set here.
So, without further ado, go forth and let chaos ensue!
