this has been sitting in my drafts for a while but i think im ready to post it!! obviously based on @sims-himbo's ts4 challenge i just changed all the traits, lifetime wishes, skills, etc. to be sims 3 compatible. i fused the base game list and the original version so now it's 13 Generations with 8 bonus gens instead of 10 plus the 4 optional/bonus gens.
I have not tested this so please lmk if there's anything that can be changed to make gameplay better/more fun!!
please consider using the #ts3 barbie legacy and #sims barbie legacy (original) tags! i'd love to see your barbies <3

This mod will unlock all visible traits for all ages, baby through elder. Place in your Mods>Packages folder. Any other mod that edits the Traits.xml file will conflict. If you have any issues downloading or using the file in game, feel free to send me an ask.
In the past, I’ve used Chicken0895’s Unlocked Child/Teen LTR and Traits mod, but as of this posting, it has yet to be updated for the most recent patch (1.63). I simply went in and edited the XML file myself so the features I wanted would be compatible with my game again. Enjoy!
Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate! Can you believe it's been 2 years since I released the original S3DT ?! 😮
This version brings the long awaited SCALING, as well as hotkeys for changing presets and a few other little things. Please take time to read through all the instructions. See THIS post for information about the rest of this mod.
These new hotkeys will only work when in Decorator Mode (Shift + D), similar to the other hotkeys. For some reason, the "Create Scaler" hotkey only works when moveobjects on is enabled.
PRESET SWITCHING
To switch between presets, pick up an object and use either (;) or (') keys (see diagram above) to move forward/backward. This will work with custom objects like paintings with lots of images, and also different patterns, including user saved presets!
SCALING
This mod uses a custom object to scale objects. You can buy it in Surfaces, Misc or use the hotkey (/) (see diagram) to create one immediately. Place your object on the scaler, and then pick up the scaler, not the object. Use hotkey (-) to make the object smaller and (=) to make it larger. To move your object, make sure to always pick up the scaler and apply any other transformations (rotation, changing height) to the scaler. The object will still be usable, and the scaler will disappear in live mode.
Made the object so big you can't select the scaler anymore? Simply pick up the object in the slot, press 0 and it will switch the hand tool to the scaler so you can continue to move it.
NOTES & ISSUES WITH SCALING
When placing, sometimes it says "Location out of bounds", simply rotate or use MoveObjects on to get around this.
Sim animations will often look weird when using scaled objects.
Modular objects and certain large appliances will NOT scale.
Objects with slots and effects will also apply scaling to any objects placed in those slots, and the effects. So if you have a giant dining table, you'll get a giant chairs. Tiny fountain = tiny fountain effects.
Trees and bushes can technically be scaled, but its more of a compression of the leaves in and out, rather than proper scaling. You can do some cool stuff with this though!
If you have a scaler scaled to say, 200% and then clone that scaler, the new scaler will also be at 200%
EXTRA BUILD/BUY INTERACTIONS
These can be accessed by Shift + Clicking on any object in Build/Buy mode.
1. Remove Footprint - Removes the footprint from an object, allowing sims to walk through it or use other objects that would otherwise be blocked. This will remain even after you save and quit.
2. Disable Snow on Object - Disables snow on an object. Only for decorative objects, as functionality will be removed when you use this.

I know winter time are almost over, but the game dosn't know that. So here is lovely Atticwindowatdawn's christmasy packs converted to sims 3. Any issues pls let me know. - Enjoy ദ്ദി •⩊• ) )
20 Objects -1 functional petbed (Require pets)
only package & is compressed = merged & unmerged visions
I removed all the rose/flower stencils from the base game "country" bedroom and kitchen items. Yes, even the floral plates in the cabinet. I just prefer a cleaner look.
These are default replacements for the textures.
I know about Velocitygrass's stencil remover mod, but I'd rather not manually delete the stencils each and every time I place an item, so I made these texture overrides instead.
Items affected:
Country double bed, single bed, dresser, and end table
Country kitchen sink, cabinets, counters, and islands
Everyday, Formalwear, Career, Maternity, Not valid for random

Rambling about the conversion below the cut, for those who like that sort of stuff
Fun fact: I've been wanting to convert this dress as soon as it was released, but got intimidated by the sequins and how I could make it recolorable. It was only with Mels' comission that I had face it, and thanks to conversions of other similar pieces I managed to separate the sequins from the main texture (I just adjusted the levels value to make them really white, and used it as a mask on the main texture and got a nice sequin overlay!)
Three channels with 14 slots and 16 slots for the emptied version. Costs §55, found in Surfaces > End tables. Multiplier is edited so that any pattern can be applied without wood overlays. Contains the original catalog description form TS4.
Three channels with three slots found at top and five slots for the emptied version. Costs §30, found in Surfaces > Displays, Misc. Also with an edited multiplier to avoid wooden overlays when recoloring. Contains the original catalog description form TS4.
