I did a bit of gravedigging for this one. These giant mid-2000s goth boots are fantastic, and I felt they deserved a new life nearly two decades after their initial creation.
The boots from Simderz' Girlz Night Out, as a pantless bottom. I swapped out the original undies for my own black recolor of these undies by Rented-Space. All 5 original colors, for EAxis T-AF, Fat T-AF, Momma Lisa, Dummy Thicc, and RenGal. Meshes have all appropriate morphs, and I fixed a small seam issue on my original AF version.
All files are repo'd to a texture bundle. This means there is no specific required age/shape, as long as you have the file beginning with TXTR in your downloads folder you may use any ages/shapes you wish.
Credits: AngelAmysxxx for the original mesh, Simderz for the recolors. They may be the same person and just went by two different names? I'm not sure. Either way, they've been inactive for 15+ years, and their content is hosted at the Sims Graveyard.
Hi! :D Can you share where did you get tops to fit these pants? I adore them but I couldn't find any separate tops for momma lisa.
Hi! Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be many separates for bodyshapes yet, but here's a short list of the ones I know of and use in my game:
The ML top in the preview is an unreleased recolor I made of Fanseelamb's separated PJ top by @kaluxsims for ML, AMTr, and Fat AM (plus more shapes).
@dark-side-princess-sims has also posted some really nice bodyshape separates on her Dreamwidth. Aikea's Fitted Tee for ML, DT, and RenGal (and more), and Martini's Pushup Top for DT and RenGal (and more).
I also have a few relevant projects in the works, it just takes me forever to get anything finished and shared. I still have some meshes to do for the PJ top, but my portion of the clothes in Fia's Motherlode post (the one with the pushup tops) is finished, I just took a break for a while and now my brain is struggling to make sense of so many files.
I'm working on this and I'm adding the mods from creators that have an open TOU to make sure that all of the major bug fixes are covered. I think I have a pretty comprehensive list (thanks to this resource), but anything I'm missing? 🤔
Anti-Corruption & Core
No Corrupted Death Memory - Pescado/MATY
nocorruptdeath.package - prevents death-memory corruption.
No Unlink On Delete - Pescado/MATY
nounlinkondelete.package - prevents deleting in-use sims from corrupting the hood.
No Auto Urn Cleanup - cyjon
CJ-NoAutoUrnCleanup.package - stops auto-deletion of urns/graves. [needs SmarterEPCheck]
Bug Fixes
Aging Baby→Toddler Fix - simler90
AgingBabytoToddlerFix.package - babies age to toddler properly.
Aging Birthday Party Fix - simler90
AgingBirthdayPartyFix.package - allows evening birthday parties without forced age-up.
Well, I think I'm pretty much done with the tool! I'm doing some final testing today and tomorrow and then I should be able to get this up and posted before the weekend (just in time to rot on Sims 2 for hours).
That said, I'd love for anyone who has the Legacy Collection on EA who wants to give the installer a try to let me know! I've made it compatible with Ultimate Collection, Legacy Collection (Steam and EA/Epic), but I don't have it on EA to actually do testing.
If you're interested, shoot me a DM!
I also added a few more mods and fixes to the installer. Here's the list so far - anything else I'm missing? Some of y'all have pointed out some great suggestions!
For right now I'm using the Knowledge Aspiration icon as the icon because ... well ... it felt fitting, but if anyone who's far more artistic/creative than me wants to come up with an icon, I'd be forever grateful 😅
Essential Mods
The Scriptorium v2.2f - Numenor
Lets you add custom stairs, fences, arches and objects to the game's catalog. Installed as text edits + folders (no files of Numenor's are redistributed).
CEP - Color Enable Package v9.2.0 - Numenor
Enables recolors/design-tool options on objects that Maxis left un-recolorable. Essential for custom content.
Rugs - zMOG!! Off Grid!! - HugeLunatic
Lets you place rugs off the grid for finer decorating.
GunMod's Camera Mod 3.1 - GunMod
Smoother, more precise camera control, closer zoom, and a free/story-telling camera.
Radiance Lighting System 2.5 - GunMod, Chocolate Pi, Chesspieceface, dDefinder & Dreadpirate
Overhauls the game's lighting - removes flat blue nights and greatly improves indoor/outdoor light.
Corruption protection (Objects.package read-only) - long-standing community practice
Sets each pack's shared Objects.package read-only so an accidental write can't corrupt every neighborhood. Cheap insurance.
TS2 Extender - LazyDuchess
Code-level fixes: pink-soup/pink-flashing on 64-bit (discovered by spockthewok), Firstborn/RNG, Open-For-Business uniform faces, plus always-on date-stood-up / aging-timing / wall-cutaway fixes. Optional extras (no-intro, Lua, separates) are off by default.
Missing Files
These need your own game files (disc or Ultimate Collection) - EA's content isn't bundled, for licensing reasons.
Missing Holiday Items - hiloyt & sunrader
Restores ~50 holiday CAS items missing from Legacy.
Restore IKEA Home Stuff - hiloyt
Re-adds the IKEA Home Stuff pack that Legacy dropped for licensing. Needs your own UC/disc files.
Restore Missing Music - hiloyt
Restores radio tracks cut from Legacy for licensing. Needs your own UC/disc files.
Empty Neighborhood Setup
Clean and Empty Stealth Neighborhoods - long-standing community method
Replaces the hidden stealth sub-hoods (and Pleasantview/N001) with empty versions so new custom hoods don't come pre-populated.
Disable Stealth Neighborhoods - method by meetme2theriver
Alternative to the empty templates: fully disables the Pets, Seasons and Bon Voyage stealth 'hoods so they never attach to new neighborhoods at all (the only way to later convert a hood into a shareable subhood template). FreeTime, Apartment Life and Pleasantview stay as empty templates so their secret hobby/witch lots still work. Pick this or the clean option, not both.
Empty Neighborhood Mods (notownieregen, nostrayrespawn, nodormieregen, antiredundancy) - MATY / Pescado
Stop the game auto-generating random townies, strays, dormies and unnecessary NPCs - full control over who's in your hood.
Third-Party Sims 2 Tools

The essential package editor for creating and fixing custom content and mods.
HoodChecker - Mootilda
Scans neighborhoods for corruption and invalid references.

Sims2Pack Clean Installer - Mootilda
Safely install .Sims2Pack files (Legacy has no built-in installer for them).
Body Shop Installer for Legacy Collection - CroconawSims
Adds Body Shop (and optionally Homecrafter Plus) to Legacy - runs its own installer. Body Shop & Homecrafter are Maxis programs.
Startup Cheats
45 degree angle rotation cheat
Adds boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true to your userStartup.cheat so you can rotate objects to 45-degree angles.
Quarter-tile object placement cheat
Adds boolProp quartertileplacementenabled true to your userStartup.cheat so you can place objects at quarter-tile increments for finer decorating.

How this installer works
The short version: you tick what you want, and the tool does it all in one go - copying mods into your game's Downloads\Mods folder, and (for things like CEP, Radiance or the stealth 'hoods) editing or replacing files inside your game folder. CEP itself isn't bundled - if you tick it, the tool downloads it from Mod The Sims at install time.
Your originals are always backed up first. Before the tool changes or replaces any file, it copies the untouched original to:
So if you ever need an original file back for any reason, it's sitting right there. (That ProgramData folder is hidden by default in Windows - paste the path into the File Explorer address bar to get to it.)
The tool does not add itself to Windows "Add or remove programs" - it stays fully self-contained. To undo, just run the same tool again and choose Undo: it shows a checklist of everything you've installed, so you can roll back everything or just certain pieces, and your originals are restored from that backup folder.
Terms of use & credits
Everything bundled here belongs to its original creator - this tool only automates installing it. Before including anything, I read each creator's terms of use, and everything in this tool is shared under fairly open terms (free use, "credit and link back," or an open-source licence). Creators and links are listed throughout this guide - please follow their terms and support them.
One exception: CEP (Color Enable Package) by Numenor. Its terms allow it to be hosted only on Mod The Sims, so CEP is not included in this installer. Instead, when you tick it, the tool downloads it directly from Mod The Sims at install time - none of Numenor's files are redistributed here.
20 recolors of Raynuss’ wooden spiral stairs - I use these all the time and needed MOAR recolors! All recolors are shown in the screenshots - one of them has a slight seam in the “column” part and I honestly didn’t notice it until I was editing the screenshots. Meshes are not included, you’ll need to get them HERE if you don’t have them.
Note: There are only 10 different wood textures. 10 of the recolors are solid wood and the other 10 are the solid wood with white risers.
Showing off my latest Play Ball Accessory and Play Ball PosePic Object as detailed here. Using @criquette-was-here Athletic Fields Hood Deco and some OMSP’s to elevate the sims over the hood deco.
In the spirit of this, except this time I bothered giving teens a preg morph.
Mesh default replacements for tfbodyformadress & yfbodyformaldress. The changes consist in small Maxis-match edits on the normal morphs, new fat morphs and added preg morphs. Compatible with texture-only defaults and recategorizers. In fact an optional recategorizer is included to enable the YF dress for adults and set it as everyday & formal, like it is for teens, instead of formal-only.

Before-after pictures under the cut.
TF ↓
The fat morph had this strange underbust profile again, like on tfbodydresswraparm and tfbodydressknee (see pics there).
AF ↓
Polycount on both is 2,214. It's slightly lower than originally because I removed small faces at the top of the thighs and lengthened the skirt a tad to bridge the cap.
And the small shape edits on the limbs are because I brought them in line with their respective naked meshes for body shape consistency, yadda yadda.
These days I spent lots of time fixing lot skirt shader - and it turned into something more. I was to rewrite many game shaders to get consistent look of terrain and snow, and now, it's ready to be published!
Attempted to fix inconsistent lighting, implemented transparent lot skirt roads - so that they match the rest of lot skirt terrain, more and more!
Improvements
Consistent lighting - lot skirt, lot terrain and roads now match.
All lighting states compatible - dusk, dawn, seasonal changes work well.
Every lighting mod compatible - works even with maxis lighting.
New snow shaders (lot skirt, lot terrain and roofs) - fixed ugly shading, proper reaction to every lighting state.
Fixed lot imposters - now their terrain is rendered as well as possible.
Transparent lot skirt roads - now it's possible to use road textures with transparent cuts so that it matches lot skirt terrain.
Now reflective pond water doesn't require pools - its reflections work by reflective plane placed in lot corner.
Neighborhood roads have light snow pass.
Included
Lot skirt shaders
Lot imposter shaders
Lot terrain shaders
Lot lighting fixes (requires RPC)
Roof shaders
Bright CAS fix
Extended Standard and SimStandard shaders
Neighborhood road shader

@megamassikalove was SUPER kind and made me a pantsless shoe mesh for the super cute Hi-Tops on the skirt conversion she did here and I wasted no time in making a bunch of recolours which I would love to share now with you!
There are 13 pantsless shoes with recolours by LadyFu, 2 with black and grey leggings textures from these leggings by CatOfEvilGenius, those same leggings recoloured by me in 3 gradient colours and lastly there are the 3 jean textures from DeeDee!
I didn't make a swatch but I did clearly (I hope) name the files so hopefully that can help. ^^
the shoes only bottoms and the gradient tights are for CF and the jeans and black and grey tights are unisex but feel free to make any changes (this is just the way I binned them for my own game ^^)
anyway.. thank you to all creators for your amazing work and a big thank you to megamassikalove for making me the mesh T_T <3<3
hope you enjoy!

(personal rambling under the cut)
I'm still trying to keep up with the community and lurking around here but it's been more difficult to play and make progress on my projects lately, juggling between work, my computer showing signs of age, and personal life in general being pretty rough lately... I'm planning to switch to Linux on my laptop in hopes of (among other reasons) prolonging its life by a few more years but I'm stuck on installation problems. And in the longer run I need to prepare to buy a new computer anyway, pretty daunting task tbh.
Anyway, I have other stuff in the works that I hope to share before the end of the year at least!
