I think it’s just not the placement of lots but the tree defaults, skylines etc. that make people’s hoods look so beautiful. With the right skylines and hood replacements even the maxis hoods look pretty!
Proof:
On reddit there’s a Sims 2 Aesthetic Guide on default replacements, lighting mods etc. It’s a long read but has a ton of helpful tips!
Pleasant Sims also made a youtube-tutorial and a list of Neighborhood Mods to download.
I wanted to have a butcher shop in my game, where sims could go and purchase stockable food items that look like packaged meat. I don’t have any families in mind to run it, and I’m not really into that kind of raising cattle gameplay. I also don’t have an owned grocery store, so I can’t mark the stockable meat for sale on the lot.
@sissysims released a phenomenal beginner friendly tutorial on how to make custom kiosks. so I used her tutorial, hopped in SIMPE and made a butcher meat kiosk. The fun part is the meat you’re seeing on the shelves is just deco. The Decra Chill Shelf is actually a “fake” one. And I used it as the mesh for my kiosk! So when I click on the DecraChill, the menu pops up to ask if I want to purchase the meats 😭
This is so amazing, I was so proud when it worked 🥲

(not me in my modder era, LOL)
Now I’m obsessed and going to make so many kiosks. I may make one for my stockable diapers and functional pads too. Make a little pharmacy on a multifunctional lot in the city. Hmmmm….🤭
I'm a little late, but as I promised, I'm doing it ❤. So here you have the SP56CK001 BowNightie in the version without shoes :) . Each version has its own mesh, so you can have both the version with and without shoes in the game :)
🛏 for teens and adults
🛏 with all morphs
🛏 categorized as pajamas and underwear full body outfit
🛏 all original Maxis colors + normals
🛏 all files are compressed
You can choose between standalone AF and TF version or TF Repod version for which you need AF packages 🙂.
Gryning made this for TM with a shirt mesh @whattheskell made from a TSS outfit. I grabbed Skells other meshes and made versions for the different age groups. These were made with the Repository Wizard so the Gryning's TM files are required, they're included. Comes in the 6 textures shown. Set as Everyday, Gym, and PJ, AM also set as Maternity
This is @midgethetree's awesome functional yoga mat, with a few tweaks to make it friendlier for use on an OFB business lot. It's more attractive now, and Sims of any body skill level can use it, not just 3+ points.
This would absolutely not have come together without the helpful guidance of @gummilutt, @hugelunatic, and @heathensimmer helping me and suggesting what to try since I am very much not a modder! But once again, desperately stubborn when it comes to making things work in my own game.
This is just an edit of the mesh, replace Midge's version with mine, but get the recolours from her original post.
Looking through the new items in growing together, nothing really screamed out at me apart from a few items and this was one of them, @platinumaspiration was hassling me to send her this piano when I was creating it even though it wasn't ready, what a pest… (JK I love it really)
Anyway, I have converted and made the Upright Piano from The Sims 4 Growing Together;
I posted something for the monthly theme over at GoS. It's conversions from a Sims 4 Bioshock collaboration between Surely-Sims, LxN, and DoctorSimCraft. And though it took me three hours to perfect, the glass-lidded grand piano is fully functional.
Check out the original Sims 4 collab here, here, and here and check out the monthly theme at Garden of Shadows (and get more info about this set there) or download my contribution directly at the link below.

Myself and SpringSims wanted to convert this kit together, so we collaborated and did the entire thing!
There are a few options with some of the items, so please read carefully. Details are under the cut!
This set features;
Functional Camera
Functional Alarm Clock
Collection file
Split recolourable subsets where it makes sense
Tons of swatches to choose from
More clutter which is always a win!
Shelves
Desk with plenty of slots
A side table with a TON of slots!
Thank you @deedee-sims for the desk that I cloned from! Helped a bunch!
DOWNLOAD
Functional Camera
The first folder you will see is named "Choose One - Functional Camera", in this you can see the Deco version and functional version of the camera. Both versions will work in your game, if you want a functional camera, please read the "read me" file, as it has an edit of a mod from our lovely friend @episims.
It does require this mod but allow my edits to overwrite the mod version you are using, either cellphone or no cellphone! So yes, for the functional one you will need to download the rest of the mods / cameras etc from Epi!
The original functional camera mod is found here
Neon Light Options
Inside the second folder named "Neon Light Options" has two comparison photos, both lights can also be used in game, but the reason for the two options is purely because I wanted the room to glow like the other EA Neon lights, but I couldnt get the glass and neon bulb to work well together. So there are two options, one that is more true to Sims 4 but does not illuminate the room, and another where its adjusted to work better in the Sims 2. Please see the Read Me file in this folder for more of an explanation!
Poster Options
For those who have my Every Base Game Wall Deco files you can remove the folder named "REQUIRED FOR REPO VERSION" inside the "Poster Options" folder. I only included it just in-case. This version has the art work repo'd to all the other poster meshes so you can swap and change the art on different meshes.
The Standalone version does not require any extra files, it is in there just in-case you do not have the main Poster file mentioned above.
I'm pretty sure it hasn't been made yet (?) and I don't know why since this is a nice object and also the only spiral metal staircase we have in TS2. 'Radial stairs' came with Apartment Life EP.
CEP-extra turns glass steps into recolourable subset. My recolors will also work without it tho.
Recommended mods: 'go under spiral stairs' by Nopke
