if you get declined from the community and your account doesn’t look like a bot (ie not an empty blog) assume that i’m stupid and accidentally declined you! send another request or message me for an invite if this happens ❤️

Every 10 years the sims 2 community has a catastrophic burning of the library of alexandria event and losing GoS is particularly ridiculous but people are literally already updating links so I really want to thank those of you who make us The Community That Relentlessly Archives EVERYTHING because at this point "the sims 2 community" would simply not exist without those efforts and if anybody ever gets on your case again about scraping through CC archives like a rat in a dumpster you should bite them and give them the plague.

do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets

her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.

remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.

thank you, Marsha. we remember you.

To my dear Sims 2 Community

I need everybody to stop, pause, make some really tight fists with their hands, now shake them out.

Now breathe in, all the way. Hold it - 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 - now breathe out. Now do that twice more.

There are still efforts going on behind the scenes to get GOS back online (and Sims 2 Artists).

New hosting has been secured. The website php needs upgrading and this has not been working, but people are still working on it.

I know its hard when things happen and you don't know what's going on. But please, everyone, just calm down. Instead of panicking, jumping to conclusions, making angry posts, just chill, wait, breathe. Be kind, ask what's happening without getting mad.

And please, remember kindness and empathy. Lunie has been trying to update GOS for months, and she is exhausted. It's down right now, but not dead (yet).

Garden of Shadows: a preservation effort

Like many of us, I grew up with Garden of Shadows. To me, it was more than just a forum. It was a place I could ask for help, learn new skills and, best of all, find amazing content in any style I could possibly want. I loved the board names, the people, the themes; everything, really.

And I admit I was more than a little heartbroken to find it gone.

After mulling it over, I decided that I wanted to preserve what I possibly could. I spent a few hours yesterday running through strategies and ideas about how to best go about it, and the best I could come up with was, well, exactly the same.

So, here it is: the Garden of Shadows mirror forum.

I've only just started, but I hope to add a little bit to it every day. The primary focus will be on preserving all the knowledge and custom content. I'm tackling it myself, but if you feel so inclined, you're more than welcome to join in.

PS. I am not here to offend, break Terms of Use, or to step on any toes. This is simply an effort to preserve content and knowledge for a game I have played and loved for over twenty years. Thank you ♥

TS2 Default: AL heavy metal chairs

The Apartment Life heavy metal barstool and dining chair are another eyesore set in the game: they look promisingly grungy, but IMO end up too cartoony for good dive bar vibes. So I've made an alternative!

Worn polyester seats that will definitely stick to the back of your sim's legs.

I borrowed the metal frame from Misty-Fluff's Resident Evil 7 chair and then meshed the cushions myself. I stretched and rearranged the texture mapping so the chairs would have some scuff marks and look as lived-in as the originals.

Now the set is a better fit for your gas stations, your laundromats, and your biker bars :D

Enjoy, and let me know if there are any issues!

very loud reminder that all future dlc for paralives will be FREE. No playable content being separated for extra costs *cough*

So if you’re debating whether a $40 early access base game is too expensive…maybe it’s actually not!

Here’s a link to Paralives AMA!

Slot blocker

A gift I made for @lamare-sims 😊 There's a few options for this out there already, but we agreed there was room for improvement so here is my take on a slot blocker object.

Found in general/misc, it costs nothing, and it does what it says on the tin. It sits in slots, to take up that space in situations where you perhaps wanted to rotate the object (shameless self-plug) or you had to use an OMSP to avoid clipping so that a slot visually looks filled but functionally isn't.

What Lamare wanted specifically was for this slot blocker to not prevent you from clicking on objects underneath it. So that's what I did! 😁 In live mode the object goes invisible automatically, and shrinks to the size of a speck of dust so that you have full clicking access to whatever may be overlapping :3 When you return to buy mode, it'll return to regular size and texture so that you can remove it if you want to. You can also recolor it invisible manually, if you prefer, it'll then remain invisible whether in live or buy/build.

Download from simfileshare

May you clutter even more intensely, float free and clip free 😉

Credits: Lamare for the prompt, Epi for the base I used that doesn't get confused if you recolor the object manually

Slot blocker not clickable in Live mode, just what I wanted!

Thank you Gummi! ❤️

I'm finally using Blowtorch from the amazing @simverses and I'm slowly decorating Nordhaven. I'm spending way too long on an area my sims won't even be able to go to ^^

Here are some non-default baby faces for the non-defaults @roguebotanist released. :)

These are add-ons for her files, so you need those in order for the faces to show up for all ages. I have no idea what would happen if you installed just the baby faces without the other ages.

I do know that if you want, you can easily merge the baby face file & the other ages together with SimPe. I used the same naming convention that roguebotanist did, so the files should sort near each other if put in the same folder.

Mata Neengia Baby Face: SFS / GD

Noah Broke Baby Face: SFS / GD

Ana+Isabel Baby Face: SFS / GD

Stella+Frances Baby Face: SFS / GD

credits: roguebotanist for the non-defaults, @meowingcookie for the all ages non-default file that I split apart for this
