sooooooooooooooo sick !
been getting back into Sims 3 after being too lazy to set everything up again after the pc upgrade and oh man, I love this game.
How to install the Sims 3 and make it run smooth
With DXVK and S3SS living their high days, older Sims 3 installment guides are rapidly starting to become outdated. So here's a brand new and up-to-date step-by-step guide to go through when you do a fresh install of your game that will help you get the best performance you could possibly imagine for this old and laggy gem of a game.
Have Sims 3 installed, but is it performing abhorrently? I highly recommend a fresh install. You don't have to delete your saves or mods. Just get yourself a fresh bin to work with by uninstalling, going into your program files The Sims 3 folder and deleting any remnant files still in there. Then follow my guide!
All of the steps to follow are below the line ->
I think my casino desert hood for Strangetown isn't really worth going back to for a third time after losing it again (pc problems be damned) But I have an itch to work on a new hood... hmmmmmm....... I will ponder.
"stop it"
Loosely based on @insertpoetryhere's fic Photograph (Summer, 1995) because I find the idea of Johnny being terrified of Nervous Subject extremely hilarious
Date flowers expire
Are your serial daters running the risk of drowning in flowers? Does it not seem quite right to just sell them? Do you question why there's even a market for second hand date roses in the sims world? Well boy does my sim Maja Sernman have the solution for you! The Sernman Group is opening a florist near you where you too can procure 100% authentic flowers that actually age! Insect-proof, compost friendly, bio-degradable flowers for you, and you, and all of you!
Inspired by @kashmiresims, and with a little help from some friends, I bring you my first mod of 2026.
Features
- After 7 days flowers will go old, using a new texture by Epi. By default a dialogue pops up, and camera will zoom to show to the rose.
- A new interaction to throw away flowers, that routes to the nearest trash can. By default the sim will think about who sent the rose, and roses can be thrown away anytime.
- Storytelling debug interactions for setting recipient/sender, make fresh/expire, pick text option (see below)
- Buyable date rewards, which thanks to debug interactions can be set up correctly. Now your sim can give extra, if they want to! You'll find them in deco/misc, prices are 5, 5, 15 and 55 simoleons (unchanged from original).
- Optional text default! Maxis intended date rewards to have 4 possible writings, but then they just duplicated the same text. I restored this to the intended mechanic and spruced up the writing. To give you a variety in style and personality, @kashmiresims @episims @nikkasimms and I have all written one entry for each of the four different date rewards with writing (bouquet, single flower, love letter, hate letter). Edit friendly, you can add more text options if you want to.
- Highly BCON tunable. Features can be turned on or off, some are active by default, some are not. See read me for more info.
NOTE!!! This requires Date Rewards by Color Traits by Episims and PForestsims, or PForestsims' default without color traits. It uses the default base texture, and will look extremely weird without their mesh default. Must load after!! Roses will error on expiration if load order is wrong, which erases sender/recipient info, so please make sure you get load order right if you care about your existing roses. Debug interactions can restore if error did happen, if you know who sender/recipient were.
Download from simfileshare (Update: If you were among the 10 first to download, please grab again! I had missed love letters use a different BCON than the rest, which resulted in an error when a new reward is delivered. I have fixed it now.)
Conflicts: Must load after the defaulted date reward. Will conflict with anything that alters pie menu and dialogues of date rewards. Adds new code to date reward semi global. Previously conflicted with romantic standards edit by Midge, has been edited to remove this conflict. Use HCDU+ to verify if you have other mods that alter date rewards.
Credits: Kashmiresims for the wonderful idea to have roses go old, @pforestsims for their beautiful mesh and base texture that @episims did a great job turning aged. I am aware red roses don't look like this when dried out, but I wanted them to still look nice if a sentimental sim wants to keep them anyway and Epi was kind enough to do what I asked :3 Charmful, Nikka and Epi for helping me write new text. @lamare-sims and @tvickiesims for brainstorming with me at the start and helping me decide on dried out rather than rotten flowers :3
PSA on GShade
Alright so, for anyone who doesn’t actually know about this because it was a few years ago now: the person who made/maintains the official Gshade is a petulant toddler who previously placed malware within a Gshade update (which anyone who uses it knows, if you want your Gshade to work again it HAS TO BE updated).
If you’re going to use Gshade instead of Reshade, use a fork that isn’t the official one – but frankly, I’d STRONGLY suggest Reshade instead, give its open source nature and the fact you can ignore updates for literally ever if you want and it’ll still function perfectly.
For a quick summary of what happened: Gshade was always infamous for having absurd amounts of updates, and as they became more excessive people started to complain about having to update almost every damn day. Someone got fed up and created a fork that would bypass the ‘you must update to use it’ bullshit. The catalyst was the petulant child literally dropping a couple ACTUALLY EMPTY updates just to piss people off further because of the complaints about the excessive updates. Just for the extra context of ‘he very much did bullshit like this even before the malware bomb’.
This turned into an arms race between him and the person maintaining the version that gave updates the middle finger, which eventually ended in him placing code that would ‘detect if someone was using a third-party non-official Gshade’ and forcibly shut down their entire PC. Not the program (which still would have been bad, mind you, but at least SOMEWHAT more reasonable), but your entire fucking PC. Anyone whose dealt with things that ‘detect third party software’ KNOWS that this shit always has false positives from some other ENTIRELY unrelated programs, and that’s exactly what happened.
The dev’s response to this was basically quadrupling down, with one quote from them being pretty much ‘I could have done something actually harmful, but I didn’t!’ (spoiler: forcibly shutting down a PC is harmful if you’re unlucky – that’s why ‘hold power button to force shutdown’ is a last resort, because you’re basically spinning a roulette wheel). So, ‘I’ll fuckin’ do it again!’ level of response to the concerns, basically.
There’s more bits to the story, but that’s the gist of it. Given the price of PC parts and PCs in general right now, unless you’re willing to risk that potential $2k on a replacement rig if baby has a tantrum again, I suggest folks ditch Gshade in favor of Reshade. The 'convenience' is not worth it.
Fallout Themed CC for The Sims 2
Part of my attempt to curate a list of recommended cc for a fallout style sims 2 save.
today i have some recolours of ep12 dress short collar, converted to sims 2 by @lucilla-sims , using textures from @thebramblewood 's princess dress. there are 25 swatches. this dress is for teen and adult females (teen textures are repoed to the adult ones), and is set for everyday and formal.
download: SFS / MF
i hope you all enjoy this dress :)
".. are these Puffins?"
finished this one! not making much progress on the overall dress though.. :(
this is DeeDee's top only version of SkittlesSims' EP12 Dungarees conversion in my usual weird selection of patterns!
Yo cuando la Parca se obsesiona conmigo y mata a la gente alrededor de mí para verme una y otra vez, y como siempre fui una mujer decente pues decidí darles un entierro digno a todos en mis aposentos, pero en el fondo sé que fui parcialmente responsable de dichas muertes por culpa de mis descuidos y misantropía, así que decido comprometerme con otro hombre para que él muera inevitablemente y yo pueda confrontar a la Parca cara a cara, pero lo que no sabía yo era que la Parca tenía otros planes para mí, y ahora porto con el dolor de un hijo no deseado y la consciencia de que jamás podré amar con plenitud, y peor aún, toda la gente de Las Rarezas piensan que soy una asesina serial:
the only sims 2 theory that i consider objectively false is "brandi killed skip for insurance money". you think skip "just the tip" broke had life insurance? you think the people popping three kids into a two bedroom trailer were planning things? he did Not have inheritance either. he left behind a collection of losing lotto tickets and one pack of hollowed out swisher sweets in grape flavor
