one thing they do not tell you about eclipses

IS THAT THE CROWS WILL LOSE THEIR FUCKIN MINDS DURING TOTALITY

i have never heard louder, more alarmed crows in my life. it was a three minute horror movie.

[starter] harbin - 2br / 1ba, no cc city living / get together / spa day / get to work

backlog cleaning continues! here’s a little 20x20 mcm starter for 2-4 sims. i like the windenburg island for this one, but i think you can squeeze it onto a 20x15 if you give up the backyard.

you can also download this on the gallery - search “harbin” or my ea id, dellaluce.

[starter] ludmilla - 2br / 1.5ba, no cc vampires / city living / get together / romantic garden stuff / get to work

a little italianate victorian style starter in my backlog for vampires on a budget. it comes on a 30x30 lot, but its footprint is small enough that it’ll happily squeeze onto a 20x15.

[starter] durham - 4br / 3ba, no cc city living / get together / vampires / backyard stuff

quick little american foursquare starter from my backlog. like 99% of my starters this comes with almost nothing but easily accommodates a family without having to add on.

[starter] deacon - 3br / 1ba, no cc city living / get together / romantic garden stuff / dine out / vampires / backyard stuff

a simple little craftsman bungalow style starter home that comes with basically nothing but is pretty ready-made to grow into, with room for at least six sims right off the bat. the dormers can cheerfully be expanded into a large second floor for skilling/legacy nonsense.

i hope ea’s next stuff pack after eco living is just “normal stuff”

full of normal contemporary furniture that normal people use in 2017

the floor lamp category is full of fucking light-up chess pieces and margarita lamps and vampire cage lanterns and i swear to god i am gonna whoop some ass if we don’t get some normal stuff soon

[farfallesims]

is this shitty enough??? it seems like they could be shittier but i’m not an artist so i feel like my ability to shit these up is going to be limited.

basketball flooring v.2 - by farfalle - requires city living

i almost immediately wanted to re-attack my palette after posting this--it was mathematically extrapolated, resulting in some wonk colors that looked fine during testing but didn’t look good in actual gameplay lighting situations. i removed those, added some colors i felt were missing, modified the texture to reduce the weird burnt-out definition near the edges of the planks and increase plank definition in lighter colors, and i’m a lot happier with the end result. because this version is about 2000% better than the previous version, the old post has been removed.

comes in three flavors: the high shine of the original flooring, a demi-matte that’s closer to oiled wood, and a shine-free matte finish.

auldale row - a cc-free 40x30 shopping district

by far my most unnecessarily ambitious construction project! auldale row is community lot accompaniment to my little newcrest neighborhood and comes with a bakery, pub, café, bookstore, and a large office building with skilling suites (wellness, music, painting/woodworking, photography). it’s packed as a cafe, but it meets the item requirements for an arts center, bar, karaoke bar, lounge, or museum if you want to switch it up. it can also be run as a retail lot, but god knows why you’d hate yourself that much.

the only things it lacks are beds and showers/tubs, but the 2nd and 3rd floors of most of the buildings are empty and can easily be converted into apartments. placement-wise, it looks best in newcrest/willow creek/magnolia promenade, but with a half-timbering makeover it could slot neatly into the one 30x40 lot in downtown windenburg.

no cc, but it uses items from basically every pack except spooky stuff. if i actually owned spooky stuff, it would probably come with that stuff too.

a bigger screenshot dump (including overhead layout shots) can be seen here.

ON HIS WAY TO STEAL YOUR GIRL

[farfallesims]

Hi, I tried to download your hair color presets for ts3 and I can't extract the files with 7-zip... I keep getting an error message about how it can't be opened as an archive file.

i had zero issues redownloading and unpacking them with 7zip, so it sounds like yours corrupted in the download. clear out your browser cache and redownload and it should be good to go. if it isn’t, try updating 7zip. if that still doesn’t work: http://www.7-zip.org/recover.html
