Pink Flashing Research Part 2

I've done a bit more research and testing on the subject of pink flashing (Thanks to everyone from my Discord who contributed!)

I came up with a "duct tape", temporary solution for Mansion & Garden players, in the form of an ASI mod, available with instructions under the cut.

Let me know how it goes! This won't fix crashes and won't work in every case, but people have seen improvements. Hopefully we'll get to the bottom of this at some point. I might make it a part of RPC eventually.

Download

SimFileShare / Dropbox

Usage and drawbacks:

All this mod does is ignore when the game tells materials to start flashing, which can result in them working fine as the game tends to misjudge the amount of available memory and make stuff pink flash when it's not really necessary.

This can result in pink flashing being gone and everything looking normal or stuff that would normally pink flash simply turning invisible.

If you see things start turning invisible in-game, type in the cheat "boolprop reparseshaders true" (without the quotes of course)

Installation Instructions:

If you use Sims2RPC, copy the "NoErrorVisualization.asi" file into your "(Mansion & Garden Install folder)/TSBin/mods" folder. (e.g "C:/Origin Games/The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection/Fun with Pets/SP9/TSBin/mods")

If you don't use Sims2RPC you will need a cracked Sims2EP9.exe, then copy the "NoErrorVisualization.asi" file into your M&G TSBin folder, and download an ASI Loader: (SFS/Dropbox). Copy this dsound.dll file in TSBin alongside the .asi file.

Hi everybody!

I am very happy to bring this counter today. I really wanted to put frames on a counter and I always tried and couldn’t. This time I didn’t give up and I finally got the result I wanted.Now even Sims who don’t have a lot of money can have a beautiful kitchen for a great price.

Little Community Series - No CC Dorms & Apartments Edition - Part 1

This is the first installment of my Dorm and Apartment creations! I have really been into making community style lots as you may have already seen with my Bay View Court and Harper Court creations. Today I am sharing the first of probably many multi-building sets, just to get them out there.

I wanted the dorms in my University towns to actually look more closely like the dorms where I went to college. So i gave them all a more community like feel. Llama Plaza and LaLlama Dorms also have a special dorm room for the building R.A. complete with their own private bathroom and connected to the front desk for their “work-study” time. All buildings are CC free.

First are 3 dorm lots. So sorry, but these are pretty pointless if you don’t have University (or Ultimate Collection).

Llama Plaza (19 Rooms) - Medium Lot size 4x3

LaLlama Dorm (22 Rooms) - Small Lot 3x2

The Quad (12 Rooms) - Small Lot 2x2

The Boulder House (8 Rooms - Apartments)

250, 290 & 330 Main Street, Pleasantview Makeover

Yeah, so the Community lot buildings in Pleasantview were always so blah to me and painful for my sims to visit. I decided to work on them a bit and make them worthy of my sims presence :)

250 Main Street is considered the "community pool" area, it looks fairly decent, but needed some sprucing up. I added some real eating areas, locker/shower areas for men and women as well as a nice little area for a "smoothie" and chat. I also decided the parking lot needed to at least look like somebody drove to the lot. IJS.

I added lighting for the safety of our sims to swim at night and to make it just look bettah!

290 Main Street just let me down everytime. The grocery store was alright, but I wanted more of that mini mall feel that I expected from this visit. So I made it happen by turning the arcade into more of an arcade, adding a full retail clothing store upstairs (yes, there is an upstairs now) along with a coffee shop and manager's office. There are outdoor food vendors in the courtyard along with vending machines and plenty of lighting. I did the same thing to the parking lot as 250 Main Street just for a bit of realism you know?

330 Main Street was a treat to makeover. The playground was a little sad with just the swingset for the kiddies. They deserve more, you know? So I added more playground furniture and of course, fixed the parking lot. Instead of a retail clothing store, I turned it into a computer resource center with a fully equipped reception area and modern, cubicled computers. Upstairs is a large balcony for our artistic sims to utilize easels and make....um....art. Got rid of the funky roof for a more modern look.

I hope you enjoy these creations as much as my sims do. Of course, these lots, do include CC. The CC is included in the package. I thought about making these CC free, but only if enough people request it. I don't mind at all! Just let me know! Enjoy!

Clean Pleasantview Templates - Rerelease (Fixed Dead Version)

Hello friends.

It’s been many years since I first released my clean templates - 7 and a half to be exact, it would seem. Time sure does fly!

So what is this? Something I’ve been meaning to do for a while - a release of my templates. This is part 1, Pleasantview. The others will be coming as I finish them

They are, honestly, not all that different to my originals from 2011-2012, just some minor fixes here and there, so don’t feel like you have to replace your current play-neighbourhood. Just, if you want to start a new Pleasantview sometime soon, you might want to consider these. :)

Hi everybody!

Recently, I redeemed some bags from Mila to add to my closet that is in the final stages, and made some recolors to add to it. In addition to this model, I am working with another model and I hope to bring as soon as the rush of my day-to-day allows me.

I’m delighted to present at last my fully madeover Downtown - available as a clean & empty subhood template! This fetures every single lot renovated and made over by me - including apartments buildings which have been made from the starter houses. The neighbourhood itself has also been decorated extensively, I’m really pleased at how bustling and alive it feels.

As always, this features absolutely no cc! It can be attached to any neighbourhood, no fuss, ready to play :)

Day time pictures, install instructions, notes & download links all under the cut.

We've resurrected The Sims Graveyard

Last month, we announced our intention to resurrect The Sims Graveyard website. For those not familiar, The Sims Graveyard was a website that archived Sims downloads from creators and websites that have disappeared and made them available for download again. The original Sims Graveyard website went offline last year. After about six months with no updates, we decided that the community couldn’t…
