Gather in the Garden - 5 Meshes Recolored in Watchmen & Valkyrie

Hi everyone! This started out as a simple project (recolor @tvickiesims' beautiful 4t2 Syboulette Rattan Chairs conversion), but when I went to take the screenshots I realized I had a few other things that would go really nicely with them, so it grew into a small set instead. Swatches, (important!) info, and download under the cut!

This set uses colors primarily from Watchmen and Valkyrie, although I tossed in a few of my favorites from The Woods are Lovely as well since Watchmen has more colors than Valkyrie and I needed to round things out.

@tvickiesims' converted Emmanuelle and Peacock Chairs in Watchmen (I didn't swatch the Peacock Chair; the texture isn't really conducive to it, the colors applied almost identically to both textures, and the swatches for this set were already taking way too long lol)

@tvickiesims' converted Emmanuelle and Peacock Chairs in Valkyrie (btw, the polycounts are ~700 and ~4400 respectively...adding this info since there was a question about it in the comments)

@veranka-downloads' converted Sgt. Peepers All Purpose Privacy Hedge in Watchmen & Valkyrie I love this hedge and I thought it would like nice with some flowers, so I added blossoms from @linacheries' Feng Shui Plant (flowers originally by clutteraholic). The leaves and flowers are in Watchmen colors, and the planters are in Valkyrie and a few woods. Separate subsets so you can mix and match (the background you see on the swatch is not present in-game; it showed up when I reloaded the DDS files in Photoshop to make the swatch).

@nonsensical-pixels' converted Fairytale Pergola in Watchmen and Valkyrie Similar to the hedges, I mixed and matches leaves and flowers with Watchmen colors and recolored the structure in Valkyrie and woods. The leaves and flowers are one subset and the structure is the second.

I also recolored @veranka-downloads' 4t2 Candle's Crib conversion in both palettes. There's no swatch because the texture is tiny, but it comes in both Watchmen and Valkyrie. There are numbered versions of the above swatches in the download; the Candle Crib numbers match the chair swatch numbers. Everything is also sorted into folders to make it easy to keep just what you like.

Here are all the included meshes (lantern pictured twice because I derped taking the screenshot):

All the meshes are included, but I highly recommend you check out the original downloads for more colors. Also: 🚨🚨!!THIS IS IMPORTANT!!🚨🚨 If you already have the Fairytale Pergola, I edited the mesh so both subsets reference the same texture rather than including the texture twice. You must delete nonsensical-simmer's (nsimmer) mesh if you want to use these recolors! I have included updated versions of the original recolors in the download so they will work with the edited mesh.

Okay! I think that's everything. If I screwed anything up, please let me know! This is the first time I've edited a mesh, and I did test it without any issues, but SimPE makes me a tiny bit nervous sometimes lol.

DOWNLOAD (SFS) This is a big one...~31MB for the new recolors :o

Lots of love, Spacey

🕯️ How I Make The Sims 3 Feel Cozy Like The Sims 2

A Siren’s Resource 🐚✨

There’s something about The Sims 2 that feels warm, intimate, and lived-in. Smaller neighborhoods. Slower routines. Family dinners that actually feel like family dinners.

The Sims 3 is different, it's a bigger, freer, open-world. That doesn’t mean it can’t be cozy too. This post is a companion to my video “How to Make The Sims 3 Cozy Like The Sims 2”, gathering all the mods, creators, and playstyle inspiration I talked about in one soft little place 🌿 (Clicked the underlined video title to watch)

You don’t need everything here. Pick what resonates, layer gently, and play slower.

🌿 CORE COZY PHILOSOPHY (No Mods Required)

Before mods, coziness starts with how you play:

Smaller homes & starter lots

Family-centered gameplay

Slower lifespans

Staying home more than constantly traveling

Celebrating everyday moments (birthdays, dinners, sleepovers)

Letting the game breathe

Mods just enhance what’s already there.

🕯️ LIGHTING & ATMOSPHERE (Huge Impact)

Soft lighting alone can completely change the mood of The Sims 3.

✨ Burnt Waffles Warm, natural lighting presets that remove the harsh, clinical feel of vanilla Sims 3. 🔗 Link: Here

✨ Uranesia Lighting Mod Another popular lighting option for softer tones and gentler shadows. 🔗 Link: Here

🍂 WEATHER & TIME (Slow the World Down)

These mods help the game feel calmer, quieter, and more intentional.

🌦️ NRaas Tempest Customize weather per world — longer autumns, snowier winters, rainy days. 🔗 Link: Here

⏳ NRaas Relativity Slows down the in-game clock so evenings and routines don’t feel rushed. 🔗 Link: Here

🧭 NRaas StoryProgression Fine-tune or disable story progression to keep neighborhoods feeling contained and familiar, like Sims 2. 🔗 Link: Here

🏡 CLUTTER & LIVED-IN HOMES

Clutter is where coziness really lives.

🪴 Around the Sims 3 (ATS3) Everyday clutter — mugs, books, plants, kitchen items — that make homes feel personal. 🔗 Link: Here

📚 Marta’s Sims Book Conversions Furniture and clutter converted beautifully for Sims 3. 🔗 Link: Here

🛒 DAILY LIFE & ROUTINES (Sims 2 Energy)

These bring back that grounded, lot-based, everyday charm.

🥖 Phoebejaysims'  Boutique Mod Adds functional Clothes shopping and Restaurant vibes that echo Sims 2 gameplay. 🔗 Link: Here

🔗Link: Here

🎭 ANIMATIONS & INTERACTIONS Upgrades

Small animation additions that make Sims feel more real and more home-oriented.

📖 Cozy Animation Addons Softer romance, familial, generational, and community-based animations.

🧸 NOSTALGIA & SIMS 2 LOVE LETTERS

If you miss Pleasantview… you’re not alone 💔✨

🏘️ Pleasantview Family Conversions Fan-made recreations of classic Sims 2 families and homes Worlds for Sims 3. Search on tumblr and google with the names of your Favorite sims 2 world and see if there is a Sims 3 version. You can also do this for sims as well. (Alot of the most popular sims 2 sims are actually already in certain sims 3 worlds) Happy Hunting!

🎶 EXTRA COZY TOUCH

🎵 Music Swap Replacing Sims 3 build/buy music with Sims 2 tracks instantly shifts the emotional tone.

🐚 FINAL NOTE

You don’t need every mod on this list. Coziness comes from intentional play. Slowing down, focusing on family, and letting your Sims exist without rushing toward the next goal.

If you try any of these, tag me! I love seeing other cozy Sims worlds 🌙✨

Sam's Band Bus

Hey, guys! Presenting another mod that SebbyIsAVampire and I worked on!

This mod replaces Pam's Bus with our interpretation of Sam's Band Bus for one of his four bands: Goblin Destroyer.

We hope you like it, and please enjoy!

1.6 Compatible

Requirements: SMAPI and Content Patcher.

🎵🎵🎵

Download (Patreon)

[sebbyisavampire]

Be sure to check out Lilac's Hello Kitty Bus also!

The Goblin Destroyer will be in your game as soon as you download it regardless of whether you've seen Sam's 8 Heart Event or not or which type of music you picked. We may make a different bus for all 4 band names, but of course, this one will be my fav!

Note: If you have never seen the Sam's concert, make sure to watch Sam's 2 Heart Event where he asks you what type of song he should write. I won't spoil anything else.

Sebastian's Goth Children

Presenting a mod that my teammate SebbyIsAVampire made! We hope you enjoy it~! These sprites now match with Sebastian's Goth Vampire Sprites + Portraits.

If you ever wanted your kids to be goth like Sebastian, then this mod is for you~!

Made this for my Vampire Sebastian Mod that I'm still working on, but I thought you could enjoy them early.

They only appear in game if you are currently married to Sebastian or divorced from him. If you divorce him and don't want another spouse's kids to look like him, remove the mod.

This mod will conflict with any other mod that changes the appearance of Sebastian's children's sprites.

Did someone say "sprites" 😏?

Well lucky for you, Losh has been hard at work perfecting their custom sprites that are based on Rin's Portraits (which you should definitely download)!

As of this post's release, Sebastian's sprites are public for everyone to download over on Losh's Patreon! If you're also interested, Sam's sprites have also been uploaded for Patreon members to download early (they'll be public on 7/22).

Once ALL sprites are complete, they'll be uploaded to Nexus as a full mod; for now, though, they're going to be uploaded to Patreon early as Losh completes them!

Prophet's Rustic Farmhouse~

Anyone in need of a new farm building? Well I finally finished up this endeavour! I wanted something to use that really fit the "rustic cabin my grandfather left behind" vibes, so here we have it.

Requires:

-Smapi and Alternative Textures.

How to use: Make sure you have both smapi and alternative textures installed. Then, in game go and acquire the Paint Bucket Tool from the carpenter shop. Using the paint bucket, you can then swap to this mod's building replacement. 

Download from nexus here!

After two vanilla perfection runs (and 1/2 a run heavily modded which I hated), I've found that I really enjoy the game as it is. I've put these mods into three categories: beginners, post-perfection, and bonus. This is because I truly recommend doing a completely vanilla run to perfection before modding. This game is a gem already! These are my must-haves to enhance Vanilla game play, rather than replace it.

Beginners 🌱 Getting started w/ mods article here and a video.

SMAPI- This framework will be needed

Content Patcher, Generic Mod Config and other framework mods When you download a mod at Nexus a pop-up will show if these are required and you can download from there.

Dynamic Night Time Adds sunsets and sunrises

Automatic Gates You'll never have to open or close a gate manually which the is second to only vanilla game mechanic I truly hate.

No Fence Decay Fixes the first game mechanic that I truly hate

Data Layers Shows the range of sprinklers, scarecrows, etc.

Billboard Anywhere Now you can look at the calendar whenever you need

Passable Crops

Pony W**ght Loss Program Really gross name, very helpful mod. Makes it so your horse can pass through areas you previously couldn't.

Post-Perfection 🌿

Clint Rewritten You should experience Clint as he is written at least once. After that overwrite him lmao

Rustic Traveling Cart

Better Friendship and Better Ranching Do your first play through without these mods, just use a guide if you need. Trust me it's part of the fun!

Chests Anywhere Access your chests anywhere you need. First play through should be partially about learning to manage IMO, which is why I recc for second.

Look Up Anything Don't you dare put this in your first play through, I will haunt you. I'm serious!!! Use a guide.

NPC map locations Say it with me... FIRST TIME, USE A GUIDE.

Bonus (mostly cosmetic) 🍄

Reshade of your choice I'm using Faedew currently because it doesn't drastically alter the OG coloring. The bright colors are part of the charm though unless you can't handle them or just want a general change.

Sweet Skin Tones Wider variety of natural skintones for your farmer

Shardust's Hair Styles Cute hairs for your farmer, including several textured hair options

Hats Won't Mess Up Hair- to keep your cute styles

Elle's Cuter Animals Just makes animals cuter. Comes in: Coop-Barn-Horses-Dogs-Cats

Toddlers Like Parents Genetics for your kids but in a one sided way

Seasonal Outfits (slightly cuter aesthetic) Gives characters a wider variety of seasonal clothing options. Pretty customizable to your desires.

Eventually I might make another list for super cosmetic or more intense mods, such as what I use with Fashion Sense which focuses on farmer customization, or asset replacement mods. These are super unnecessary and I'll likely only be playing the new patch with these above. Enjoy!
