Life & Death ALL CAS ITEMS BG CONVERSION
Saying all cas items is actually a clickbait ngl, but I tried to convert almost every possible cas item from the pack to base game! I already upload the hairstyles and now I'm adding the full outfits, tops, bottoms, shoes, makeup.. including all life-stages. I decided to exclude the cas items made for ghost because they weren't showing up. Other than that, I managed to upload 136 cas items!!!
I divided the items in three different folders, but all the objects that work for both masculine and femenine frames are located in the Male folder.
Known issues:
I decided to upload the GrandGrim outfit, although you may find some issues where your sims faces and sometimes their big a** heads don't get a full coverage and honestly idk how to fix that. I shared the option in case you know how to and want to fix it.
I manage to unlock all the locked items, but they still appear at the bottom with the rest of locked items, also they're not properly tagged so if you try to find them with the custom content tag only you won't be able to find them. I couldn't find the way to properly tag them, I'm sorry! but if I find the way I'll try to update them, I hope that's not a big inconvenience!
If you have any other problem, something is not showing off or you want me to add any missing item let me know! ENJOYYY
I was supposed to share this on my patreon but is not working for me today and I didn't want to wait any longer to post, so here it is!

UPDATED AGAIN! NEW AND IMPROVED MAY 17, 2022!
I’ve done my best to improve eye-popping issues, and also reshaped the eye slightly to make the seam look a little nicer so you have a little more sculpting freedom without having to worry about making things look odd. I also finally fixed the preset thumbnails, so you don’t have to look at the ugly ea-generated ones anymore :) If you redownload and replace the old package, your cyclopses should update to the new version just fine. The eye shape should be very close to the original, so they most likely won’t need any fixing after you update. If you’ve used an older version of these presets, you may need to clear your caches for the thumbnails to show up.
Whoa! Not a piece of cc I expected to make, but when I figured out I could, I knew it was my duty.
This is an eye preset that contorts your beloved sims’ faces into that of a cyclops. Because its a preset, it still moves and uses sliders, opens/closes like a regular eye.
However, because it’s one very large eyeball taking up 2 eye sockets, stuff gets a little fucky sometimes. In a lot of ‘normal’ facial expressions, the eye looks perfectly fine. But if they turn it too far, then the eyeball pops out of the eye socket a little bit. I think I’ve minimized this to the best of my ability without sacrificing the Look. It also might look a little wonky if the sim winks.
It should appear near the top of your eye presets, and all three sizes have a custom thumbnail.
It also doesn’t always look great out of the box, you gotta play with the nose sliders usually and the eye sliders a bit.
I recommend using them with a monobrow/unibrow, but like. Obviously make your sims however you want!
Enabled for all ages, genders, and occults. It should be genetic? I haven’t tested
**UPDATE**: Now it comes in three sizes! Original, larger, and extra large! These are included all in the same package. If you already downloaded, please redownload! The bigger eyes have slightly more noticeable clipping, but it’s not too much worse! (Note: you will likely need to do more face tweaking the larger the eye, I had to squish my models nose so it didn’t poke through)
‘But how does it look with makeup and glasses?’
Makeup looks shockingly good. The eyelids merge in just the right spot, though on some eyeshadows there is a bit of a noticeable seam. One of the images shows an eyeshadow where each eye is a different color, so you can more easily see the seam in the center.
It doesn’t change any glasses as far as I’ve seen, so they may look a bit silly, but I have some custom-made glasses available here. But the 3d lashes that I’ve tried DO work.
Anyway, I think that’s all! I would love to see the cyclopses you all make, so feel free to tag me if you post screenshots of this preset!

Demigod Camp Shirt Overlay
I’ve been wanting to make Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter shirts for awhile, but I couldn’t settle on a mesh and I didn’t want to restrict all the campers to the same exact t-shirt, and then I had the idea to just make it an overlay. You can turn most solid color t-shirts and sweatshirts into a camp shirt with this overlay! Now your campers can wear any style of shirt, any color, with not too many restrictions.
This overlay works on all frames from child-elder! Download + more info under the cut.

UPDATE 5/22/25: With the release of the broken (and missing content) Legacy edition, EA has taken down down the Sims 2 Starter Pack. I now recommend following THIS post.
This exact video, "Where Can I Get The Sims 2? (2022)" got removed off YouTube for policy violation, along with a strike on my channel. :(
Since Tumblr is more lax on the rules, I think it'd work a lot better uploaded here so I can get it's own dedicated link. 💗

Fantasy Guide to Arranging Marriages
Marriages in fantasy, just like in history usually are dynastic and political moves that could make or break the future of the people getting married. As the writer, it is up to you to decide whether who marries who within your kingdom.
Match-up Map
One thing I found to match this process easier, is to make a list of the noble families in my kingdom or abroad including royals. List ages, gender and names of those unmarried in your kingdom. Make sure you plan with a meticulous plan before writing present weddings. Go back and see which lords married who and who has married the king, princes or princesses before the story begins as it can help with forming the political structure of your world.
Is it desire? No, business
Weddings are made for cementing alliances within kingdoms or with abroad. Each family wants something from the other they marry into, whether it be an heir, wealth or power. Let’s look at some examples
Margaret Beaufort, cousin and heir to the House of Lancaster, was married to Edmund Tudor, half brother of the king, in an effort to sire an heir. They were successful and Henry Tudor was born, becoming Henry VII after taking the throne of Richard III.
In Shakespeare in Love, Viola is married to Lord Wessex, only because she is rich and his family is impoverished. He is a gold digger basically.
Henry VII of England married Elizabeth of York to cement his power. A clever move as his claim on the throne was tremulous at best and could be easily waved off. Married to the eldest living child of the penultimate king, Edward IV, he boosted his power, merging York and Lancaster together.
All is fair in weddings and war
Wartime is a good time for marriages to be performed. The factions will strengthen their bonds by marriage. If one king fights another, he may turn to a third for aid offering to wed his son to a daughter of that king. This would unit them in the effort to win the war and remain friends afterwards.
During the Wars of the Roses, Isabel Neville, daughter to Warwick the Kingmaker, was married to the king’s brother George of Clarence in her father’s effort to dethrone Edward IV, a king he had already made, and crown George, making Isabel the Queen. This plot failed.
The Kingmaker would try a second time, this time marrying his daughter Anne to Edward of Westminster, the Lancastrian Prince of Wales who was the rival and enemy of York. This wedding bond two old enemies together and together they aimed to take the throne. It failed. Guess Warwick’s first king was made a little too well.
We’re all in this together, just on opposite sides tho
If a family has more than one heir, bank on the fact that they will marry into multiple other families. One sister could marry into a family and her brother could marry a bride from the rivals of that family. If all comes to all, the siblings could be going to war with one another. This can create a wealth of bad blood and fear between a family not to mention tear a kingdom apart.
Step by Step, get to that altar
So you have your list of eligible bachelors and desired brides. Now it is time to decide where we are going with them. There are 3 steps in the arranged marriage process. Talks, betrothal, wedding.
Talks is when the heads of the two factions meet to discuss the marriage. They could argue about dowries and lands or when to wed their heirs. This can be a drawn out process mind so just because they are talking about marriages in the first chapter don’t expect the wedding to happen soon depending on the delicacy of the marriage or the temperament of your families.
The betrothal is the engagement period. Once betrothed you are considered to be almost married up to actual ceremony. This period can last years or months depending on age or events that are happening. It can be broken off at any time due to a breakdown in alliances or death of a participant.
Wedding is when the deal is sealed. You need to, ahem, make things official in the bedroom before it is considered binding. Marriages can be put aside due to lack of consummation.
Baby Personality Mod
I needed this for my own game, so here’s a mod that scraps the stupid 25-35 personality point limit that the game uses for born-in-game sims and completely re-calculates baby’s personality upon birth with the following logic:
Each personality trait is randomly inherited from either of the parents (if the pregnancy was started through alien abduction the other parent’s personality is randomized)
Then the personality trait is randomized again so that it can be anything between two lower or two higher than the corresponding trait of the parent that it was inherited from
There’s no longer a limit for how many personality points babies can have so their personality point count can be anything between 0-50, based on the personalities of their parents
This leads to much more variety than with the original system. Baby’s zodiac sign will no longer match to their personality, though, as it’s going to be whatever it was set to before this mod re-calculated the personality. Tbh I have no idea how I could change it to the right one but I don’t see this as a bad thing myself as it adds a random element to the attraction system.
This mod also modifies plantbabies personalities so that their personality traits are no longer exact clones of their parent’s, but instead can be anything between one lower or one higher than the corresponding trait of the parent. Their zodiac signs were already randomized so no changes with that.
Download (SFS) (alternate) - Midge’s Baby Last Name Chooser is incorporated, so if you already have it in your game make sure to remove it before adding this! This mod is compatible with twojeff’s Triplets&Quads, kestrellyn’s Name the Father, and Midge’s Birth Options as long as my mod loads after them. As always, let me know if you find anything wonky.
Credits to @midgethetree for the baby last name chooser and for very patiently helping me creating this mod. I’m just starting to learn modding myself so this wouldn’t have been possible without them.
Edit: This mod conflicts with InTeen, but @iwilleatyoualive made a version compatible with it that you can download from here! Just make sure that it loads after InTeen as well. Many thanks for the compatible version!
Edit2: This mod also conflicts with both Cyjon’s Plantbaby Changes and Almighty Hat’s G-Rated Religion mod. I made an edit of plantbaby changes that’s compatible with my mod, you can grab it from here. With the religion mod you should be fine as long as my mod loads after, many thanks to @opheliaraingalaxy for testing!
Update (7.8.2023): Added an alternative version of the mod that also randomizes the baby’s predestined hobby (OTH) upon birth. The hobby will be completely random regardless of the baby’s personality.
Update (25.10.2021): Fixed a glitch that caused the personality traits inherited from the father getting calculated a bit wonkily in some cases.
Update (5.5.2021): Incorporated a fix that Midge made for Baby Last Name Chooser to solve a compatibility issue with kestrellyn’s Name The Father.
Sims 2- Maxis Match Purple Eyes
Do you like the original Sims 2 eyes but would you like to add purple eyes for Targaryens/Fairies/etc.? Look no further!
These specific eyes match per-fect-ly.
There are two versions you can download, a default replacement and a genetified non-default.
+WARNING: the non-default is townified, meaning it will spawn on newly generated townies. IF you take them out, you might end up with townies with weird looking eyes which needs to be fixed in SimPE!
Download the NON-default from this link:
(The violet eyes are Dominant like the dark blue and brown eyes).
This provides 5 eye colors (dark brown, light brown, green-brown, realistic green, grey-blue) based on the maxis textures. They are genetici
Download the DEFAULT from this link:
I personally would download the file that defaults the Dark Blue eyes since we've already got the Light Blue eyes. After downloading that file you put ONLY the package called Violett in your Downloads folder. You can take these eyes out at any time!
I hope this helps! :)
Sims 2 - Skin Defaults
Default Skin:
I've put in the Defaults (without freckles), including alien, and the genetified Companion Skins With Freckles.
(^ The incorporated Alien eyes don't work for me but I don't mind).
Looks *very* Maxis Match but gives them a more defined nose with shine and a little bit of lashes.
I just made a set of edited Maxis skintones into defaults for myself. I know duderocks327 put some up on MTS 2 and they were beautiful but I
Unfortunately this skin does not come with a Mannequin swatch so I've downloaded (only) the Mannequin Default (in Supernatural folder) from this skinblend:
This set of skintones is a remaster of my Honeygold Skinblend to suit my current gameplay. More info under the cut. These are meant to re
The second skin is more matte than the first one so I put this Faceshine (download found in Eyebags folder) over it:
