Hi, I want to use the afterglow preset but I am confused by the description. It's labeled as a reshade preset but the description says "you need to use gshade shaders in replacement of reshade shaders for this preset to work right". Is this for people who use gshade but want to use reshade? Is this a reshade or gshade preset? I know it's labeled reshade but I am confused. I wanted to use this because I avoid gshade. Thanks in advance.
hi! sorry this took me so long. you can use reshade, it’s a reshade preset, but you just need to put the gshade shaders into your reshade shaders folder. please refer to this video at the linked time stamp (5:56). it guides you through the process. it doesn’t have anything to do with actually installing gshade. it’s just transferring the shaders to use them with reshade.
maya and malachi met in junior high and have been connected by an invisible string ever since. backstory below ⤵︎
synopsis: maya had a difficult childhood, raised in foster care after her mother gave her up as a baby. she never had anyone stable in her life except for her best friend, malachi, and his family. the strong bond they created made them people she never wanted to lose. she stayed with them for a period of time in her early teens, but ultimately had to go back to her assigned foster families that always turned out to be temporary. as they grew, the two became distant. malachi shifted to a new crowd—one that maya did not have a place in. he dreamed big of having his own bar, moving from the small town of willow creek to san myshuno very soon after graduating high school (without a word to maya).
she inevitably moved on, but held him in her heart as she too pursued some semblance of a dream. she found out she inherited a small cottage in henford-on-bagley from an estranged grandmother, not even knowing how they connected her to the land, but she wasn’t going to pass up opportunity to escape her hometown. she healed from her past as she spent her days growing plants, taking care of her farm animals, and getting to know the townsfolk. she also took a train to britechester while she worked towards a degree in botany.
one day, maya volunteered to babysit for one of her neighbors, taking their toddler to a park she used to play at in willow creek for an afternoon. as if he knew she was back in town, malachi appeared before her looking colder, more tattooed, and certainly way more attractive than she remembered. they exchanged contacts and reconnected, continuing where they left off.
and…the rest is history.
they’ve gotten married now, they have three little babies, and malachi and his family are thrilled to have maya back in their lives. they have a cute house with chickens and a garden, maya’s a (foxbury alumni) botanist and malachi’s in the culinary career as a mixologist. they still live in henford, their babies still so young it’s hard to even think about moving somewhere new. their children are daisy, archer, and then they have little rosemary (aka rosie) who’s a very new infant. daisy and archer were born before they married, so those two got to participate in the wedding which was cute. i’ll most likely end up playing with all of the kids rotationally.
i want mal to open his own bar/restaurant and for maya to be the co-owner. they can use the products they already have from their little homestead. i’m very excited to see where this family goes because i’ve genuinely had this couple in my game since cottage living. i’ve played this save very slow or not at all since then, so these sims still have a lot potiential and always help me get back into sims 4. maya is going to be changed into a fairy once that pack releases because it’s too perfect for her. these are my POOKIES fr!
finally i’m posting my edited version of a preset i've been using for all my sims games. apricot blossom by simsboo is the main base, but i added a few effects and edited some settings.
download & details under the cut !
this works with any sims game and is fully compatible with gshade. you need to download gshade shaders and put them in your reshade folder so this preset can work right. if you are struggling with getting the right shaders, johziii has an amazing tutorial (5:56) to refer to.
i included hotkeys for mxao, dof, and bloom effects so you can easily turn them on and off. i use bloom and dof for screenshots, not gameplay. i make my mxao more extreme when playing ts4.
please let me know if something is not working properly. thank you to simsboo for the original preset.
when i’ll be 87, you’ll be 89 / i’ll still look at you like the stars that shine in the sky.
with nothing but her guitar, alison koehler moved to the quiet town of meadow glen, determined to pursue a career as a country musician. she had a bit of a rocky start, falling in love with a man who was secretly seeing the girl that lived next door. heartbroken, she dove head first into her career.
it wasn't long until she met andrew, a shy scientist who was watching her play for tips one afternoon in the local park. they instantly hit it off and built a life together with their numerous animals. the pair married quickly, a fairytale autumn wedding leading to the long lasting romance that alison had always hoped for.
they ended up having five children, per andrew's lifetime wish. their first was stephen, then twins, juliet and elijah. they then welcomed another set of twins, abigail and angeline. a very full house filled with lots of love (fertility treatment in this game is no joke).
alison and andrew hawley created a real legacy for their family, maxing the music and science career respectively. they bought out the theater, renaming it to the 'hawley theatre' in honor of alison's memorable performances and all the positives she's brought to the community. she also purchased the town's horse ranch that her daughter's horse stays at.
that daughter, juliet, will be the heir for the fearless generation, starting a new chapter of the hawley story.
