tutorial for how to update default eyes to be enabled for infants
you can use this same method to enable makeup & skin details** for infants, too.
the code i’m placing in the value box is 000030FE which was found by @fivesims (thank you, ur a GENIUS), & this code will enable something to be applied to all ages, infants included.
if you want to take eyes/makeup/a skin detail and enable it for just infants & toddlers, but keep it unavailable for all other life stages, the code you would need to use is 00003082 which was also found by fivesims!
if you want to make it so that something is available for only infants, i’m pretty sure the code you should put in is 00003080 (which i was proud of myself for being able to find myself haha)
** (i wouldn’t be surprised if it worked for other things that don’t have meshes, too—maybe eyebrows, teeth, etc, especially if they’re already able to be applied to toddlers—but i haven’t tested that for myself, so i can’t confirm or deny.)
the brilliant brilliant @shysims said: “Btw you don’t have to type it in for each one if you save the first one you change and then go back to studio you can click on apply to all swatches and it should change them all, just to save you time, after you can just go back in warehouse to make sure its applied!”
so glad to know this bc it is absolutely going to make my life 10000x easier 😭😭 can’t believe i was doing it one at a time this whole time
here’s a more comprehensive explanation of how to hit “apply all” !!
I was asked to tell more about the holidays in my legacy gameplay, so here is a super long and detailed post on the subject! 😊
How I use holidays in my game
I used to hate the holidays, cos I saw them as something my sims had to participate in and there was always so much pressure to complete all the traditions! But then I cracked it...
Holidays are a great way to add objectives to gameplay! When every day is some kind of a holiday with its own theme, there's always something for my sims to do.
I tick the "day off" box only if the holiday is a major one or the traditions would feel too rushed if my sim worked on the same day.
I try to have a lot of outdoor/traveling holidays in the spring and summer, and more home lot based holidays in the autumn and winter.
For some holidays, I add a diverse set of traditions and then choose only one or two to complete every sim year.
Sometimes my sims are just too busy with other things in life to participate at all. The No more "awful holiday" sad moodlet mod (linked below) is super useful because it completely takes the pressure off of completing holiday traditions!
It's very refreshing to use custom icons for the holidays, it matters more than you'd think! I use the More selectable icons mod (linked below) for this feature.
I've taken ideas and inspiration for some of my holidays from countless lists made by other simmers over the years.

More holiday ideas
If you want to create your own holidays, but struggle with coming up with ideas, here are some things I always consider when I create holidays.
Can you match a world with a season? Summer holidays in Sulani, winter holidays in Mt. Komorebi, etc.
Alternatively, have a summer holiday in Sulani when it's winter elsewhere, a winter holiday in Mt. Komorebi when it's summer elsewhere, etc.
What if you took the default holidays and placed them in a different season? Celebrate Winterfest on the beach in the summer!
Can you match a world with a theme? Nature holidays in Granite Falls, city holidays in San Myshuno, etc.
Think of a simple theme for your holiday (games, sports, food, animals, books, etc.) and choose traditions based on that.
Create a holiday that requires your sim to travel from world to world to complete all the traditions.
Have a 3 day holiday for a vacation trip, with different traditions to complete each day.
Create holidays for specific life stages. What would a teen or an elder sim do for their holiday?
Create a holiday for each occult type. How would a Spellcaster spend their holiday?
Can you think of a way to combine holidays and clubs?
Put two really different holidays right next to each other so you have lots of variety in gameplay.
If you're playing a legacy, create a holiday for each heir sim based on their personality, and have their offspring celebrate these holidays to honor them.
Research real life holidays that are celebrated around the world to find new ideas.

Studio updates with Windows & Doors batch fix (Windows, Mac)
Hi all, Studio is updating today with a batch fix for custom windows and doors that were broken by the Star Wars patch. The Windows and Mac versions both have this new feature.
For creators, each version also has a feature that allows you to fix the cutout on any new creation by clicking Tools/Modding/Generate Model Cutout From Wall Cutout Texture after you’re finished importing your new wall cutout texture.
For everyone, please read the notes below.
Select your version of Studio to download HERE
Notes:
When the batch fix runs, it will create a backup folder containing the original version of all files it fixed. Please do not discard this file until you verify that your windows and doors are functioning properly in the game. If you encounter a window or door that did not fix properly, please send us the original and the broken batch-fixed versions so the problem can be investigated.
The game has a small glitch with some round windows that causes a subtle line to appear at the edge of such windows when no wallpaper is on the wall in which the window is placed and the wall is facing a certain direction. EA windows do this too (see pic below), so this is not a problem with the batch fixer, it’s a game issue. You will not notice this line once wallpaper is applied to the wall.
Running the batch fix on a window or door will cause a new resource to appear in the Warehouse view of that file. This resource records the batch fix version that was applied to the file. If you add new broken windows or doors to the same folder in which this file is placed and run the batch fix again, this resource allows Studio to skip over this file instead of fixing it again.
This batch fix took quite awhile to complete because of the immense variety of doors and windows created by our community. Andrew deserves kudos for sticking with this project even when, at times, it seemed impossible to complete.

I actually love the idea of doing this trying out fanfic/literary cliche’s out in real life, kinda wanna make up a list and undertake it as a challenge.
One of my sweet Patrons asked me if I could do a request for them :) I took this opportunity to test out the “real pencil” brush I found on deviantArt and absolutely loved it! It something entirely different to the thick neat lines I usually do.
Thank you for being my Patron @sordid-details-following and I hope this piece looks good in your fanfic 🖤 — Thanks for your support!!
My PATREON starts from $1 and you get early access to all my drawings, polls, WIPs, goodies, free requests, discount on commissions and more!
Since mediafire has been butthurt about its hosting lately, I’ve decided to move all my downloads to Sim File Share.
Below you will find links to all my files in specific folders named accordingly.
I’ve also updated the original posts with the new links.
Note: Old links are still valid, for as long as mediafire works, I will NOT remove them.
i never realised that The Babadook was accidentally put in the LGBT+ movies section of Netflix i thought we all just collectively decided the babadook was gay for no reason at all
A/N: This was a fic I have been really excited about writing. Believe me, I was constantly talking about it to my friend for days. This is kinda an AU but kinda not. Everything that is happening in TWD is still happening. Some stuff has changed for the Winchesters background with Supernatural but there’s still a lot of the same things happening. I hope you all enjoy and would love to hear your positive feedback. Let me know if you’d like to be tagged.
A/N 2: This is really the first time I’ve written in someone else’s pov so I hope it wasn’t too bad.
Summary: (y/n) Winchester is just trying to survive the new world of the apocalypse with her brothers, Sam and Dean. While looking for your father, John, you come across two men who welcome you to their community, Alexandria. The events that follow will test the limits of not only your mind and body, but also your heart.
Pairings: Eventual Daryl x reader (almost), Dean x sister!reader, Sam x sister!reader
The bright sun shining in your face was what woke you up from your slumber. You yawned and stretched loudly feeling refreshed. You were about to get up when you felt two, strong arms pull you back into them. You giggled happily in the arms of the man.You placed both your arms around his neck and looked into his ocean blue eyes. “Good morning, Daryl.”
“Mornin’, sunshine.” Daryl said while pulling you in to place a chaste kiss to your lips. “Where do ya think ur headin’ to?”
“Well I was going to get dressed, but I could just stay in bed with you all day.” You giggled while curling up into his embrace.
“How’d I get ta be so lucky ta find a girl like ya?” Daryl asked while looking into your (y/e/c) eyes. He looked at you as if you were his whole world.
“I’m the lucky one, Daryl.” You whispered while grabbing both sides of his face to pull him into a long, passionate kiss. When you pulled away from him you saw a bruised and beaten face. Your hands were covered in his blood. “Daryl?” Then, you heard someone clear their throat. You looked down at the end of the bed and saw Dean. You jumped and sat up in bed, in shock at his state. He was pale with a very large laceration from his lower abdomen to his rib cage and blood was still spilling out of this. “Dean?”
It wasn't police training, it wasn't childhood boy scouts, it certainly wasn't hope that had allowed Rick Grimes to live this long. He was starting to believe there was something different about him, something down in his gut that made him survive. Something, made him better than those who had come and fallen before him. Something he could see in his son, growing every day. Maybe he was becoming prideful, it was hard to tell. But he knew the people around him had it too, even Carol, who had once seemed useless was starting to really show something stronger. Everyone was. They weren't just surviving, they were living. They had a system to everything now, a way to truly live this new terrain. The group was becoming a well oiled machine. Sure, the farm had been easier but that had been a pipe dream; living through this life could never be as simple as Hershel had hoped. It wasn't the reality that Rick was coming to accept.
“Rick, yer' gonna' spill it,” said Daryl to his left, he was kneeling one car over, a siphon tube half hanging out of his mouth and his left hand thrusting a dirty red gas can in Rick's direction.
Rick's mind came back into focus as he saw the jug he was siphoning gas into was nearly at the brim.
“Yeah,” Rick muttered and quickly grabbed the offered gas can. He slid the tube into the new can and began capping the other as he looked up again.
Past Daryl's head he could see the others standing in the abandoned car lot. They had gotten lucky finding the place, the dealership was small but still a few dozen cars that hadn't been siphoned yet was like finding a gold mind. He glanced behind him to see Carl standing watch at his back and smiled slightly, it was unlikely they would be run up on, but Carl stood firm with his gun at the ready and his eyes scanning along the small road.
