[Teaser!] Helianthus Collection

My biggest collection yet - stay tuned!

[roananddappleranch]

'Finally, May Flowers!' Collection || R&DR Shop

We all know what comes after those April showers.

This Spring season, get ready to flash some pastel colours and flowery designs -  whether you're reining out of the rain in the show arena, braving the mountain trail and looking to catch the judge's eye, or just looking for some fresh colours that your trusty steed can look good and feel good in on your daily rides. Whatever the occasion, who doesn't love to take a bit of Mother Nature's artwork with them wherever they go?

This collection boasts 23 swatches of both a western blanket and medicine boots with bell boots. While the blankets are all filled with flowery designs with a subtle wool pattern, the medicine boots are solid colours that match the blankets.

The download link for these saddle pads and medicine boots can be found by participating in WUSA's 'Sweetgrass Summer Trail' competition in The Hitching Post Sims Discord server before it becomes available for download within the server, so please join there to gain access to these and other upcoming custom content releases of mine.

Morningstar Equestrian's Western Saddle Pad (realistic)

SchrodCatCC & MM's Boots Combined with Bell Boots Part 1

The saddles pads are realistic fit only. They will not fit EA saddle placements and need a realistic saddle for them to look right on the horse.

Some of the blankets come with the leather patch where the girth is, but some don't - I was more focused on making sure the design could be seen and admired on the blanket.

These are released to the participants of WUSA's 'Sweetgrass Summer Trail' competition hosted on The Hitching Post Sims Discord server on May 24, 2026. For the rest of The Hitching Post Discord server, these will be released for download server wide on May 31, 2026.

The Hitching Post Sims Discord Server - COME ON IN!

Welcome to The Hitching Post! We are a sims equine community that is dedicated to the western discipline and the versatility of stock horses

Emerald Creek Designs and I are so happy to announce the opening of our brand new server, The Hitching Post Sims - a western themed Discord server that is focused on western sports, western themes, the cowboy culture, and most importantly: our tried and true western horses. Hailey didn't see many western Sims riders in this community, but she knew we still exist - and this is the new place for us. And the best part about this community is that even if you have English horses and are an English rider, there's nothing stopping you from throwing on a western saddle and trying your hand at some of the western aspects of the pixelated equestrian world. Here's what we have to offer so far:

A Humble Beginnings Community We have been a part of the Sims 4 horse community since Horse Ranch came out back in 2023, and even the Sims 3 horse community since 2011. Since then, we have seen the growth that has come with this game. We decided that we wanted to pull this community into another direction, and that's where The Hitching Post Sims decided that this was going to be a western themed server for the focus to be on the most rustic sort of lifestyle.

Respectful & Relaxed'round these parts, if you treat others with respect then you will get respect in return. Our staff team is dedicated to keeping this place safe, drama-free, and chilled out as much as we can. If you come into this server with a good attitude and a willingness to be respectful and follow the rules, you're gonna have a good time in here.

Interaction Among CommunityWhat is the most important part about the community? The people, of course. In The Hitching Post Sims, we have created multiple ways to interact and connect with your fellow cowboys and cowgirls and your horses, such as: - Multiple text channels to chat away about random events or the game, - Picture channels for you to post about your daily life like what you ate today, how your beloved plants are looking, your real life pets, and more, - A voice chat where you can either participate in talking to some like-minded individuals or you can just sit and listen while doing something else, - Create horses, Sims, or other pets and post them for sale where you can make money with our in-server currency system, as well as buy other peoples' creations, - Participate in picture shows or randomized shows from clubs to earn prizes such as in-server currency and other creations from the community, - Customize your profile with a role colours, your favourite horses and sports, and even figure out which pings you would like to receive news about in the server, - Shop custom content for your game, and even post your own if you're into that sort of thing, And there's more coming as we grow!

What we have so far for you

We've got some fine lookin' stock horses up for application sale and giveaway right now - all you have to do is fill out the form with your best answers or press the Enter button, and wait to see if you got picked to bring some of these beautiful horses home to your stable!

Spring Time in the Mountains feat. Ryleigh & R&DR Outlaw Orbit Rider

The weather was finally nice enough that we could justify going into the mountains for a trail ride. We decided this was the best time to get some of the youngsters ready for the western/mountain trail scene more intimately. Ryleigh was on R&DR Outlaw Orbit Rider, aka Nimbus, who took to the trail really well for his first time.

We weren't even supposed to keep Nimbus in the first place, but since we ended up doing it, it has been nothing but a treat to get to know this young man. He's so willing and curious about things that it makes it easy for him to want to go out to a new place, like a mountain, and get to know the lay of the land and put his hooves into the streams.

Mountain trail lot was made by CK. All credit for the amazing lot goes to her!

R&DR Shop: Western Saddle Pads & Matching Show Shirts (Part 1)

You'll be show ready, matching with your pretty pony in the ring to show off for the judges with these show shirts and saddle pads that coordinate with one another!

The download link for these saddle pads and shirts can be found in the Kimberwick Discord Server, so please join there to gain access to these and other upcoming custom content releases of mine.

Terms of Use:

Please do not claim anything on here as your own work.

Please do not download anything of mine from anywhere other than the Kimberwick Discord Server, as there have been cases of CC being uploaded elsewhere with attached viruses or malware.

You're not required to tag me in any pictures where you're using my stuff, but if you want to I won't be upset.

If you post my content, please link back to my Patreon page instead of just uploading it.

Putting my stuff behind a paywall is an absolute no no.

I reserve the right to use any of my poses and custom content, even if they are exclusive for one person, for both advertisement and personal purposes.

Meshes for the custom content will always be disclosed and linked back to the original creator.

Details:

10 shirts and saddle pads are included in this pack. The required meshes for these to work in your game are Standardheld's Western Tucked Shirt (Strangerville is needed for this mesh) for the shirt, and MorningstarEquestrian's Western Pad.

These shirts are meant to be tucked in to most jeans to mimic the same criteria for dress code at a western show. Just need to take into account the fact that the design on the side of the shirt might be hidden depending on the height of your jeans going up your female Sim's waist.

The saddle pads are a realistic fit, so make sure to use a saddle that is realistic fitting to your horse. Otherwise, if you want to use a EA fit, make sure to use either T.O.O.L, Wicked Whims poser, or Wonderful Whims poser to seat your rider correctly on the saddle.

These were released to the Server Boosters of the Kimberwick Discord Server on August 29th, 2025. For the rest of the Kimberwick server, these will be released September 5th, 2025.

Come join my Patreon!

Yeah, I started a Patreon! (Very original, I know.)

My plan for this Patreon? I'm going to be uploading tons of stuff - recolours of tack items and a mane and tail (maybe cuz wowie wow that shit sucks to do) and poses! I plan on mostly doing a focus on western stuff with a little English thrown in here and there.

These CC items will be exclusive to the Kimberwick Discord server. Which means, you have to be part of the Kimberwick Discord server in order to get these items for yourself in your game. I'm looking forward to getting more stuff out and I hope you all enjoy it. <3

As many of you know, HappyLlama and Lyn aka Winter Haven whatever the fuck has been creating drama and posting nonsense for the last what, month? Two months? Nobody’s really kept track.

“Lyn” has posted my private creations for public download, it’s only fair the truth comes out. This person has all of their information public via social groups, therefore it is free game as she willingly linked herself to the situation publicly. I won’t be posting her name directly, however you are free to research yourself.

They claim they were “paid off” or “falsely charged”, but let’s be so fr. You left to smoke a ciggy and left your infant son to die in the motel and still defend yourself claiming it was okay. The police would not be paid off when you are a nobody to them.

Your partner is smiling in their mugshot for infant murder.

So yes, I did take my horses back as I do not want them in the possession of someone who has committed a murder and lost the custody of their other infant (who was flown to another country) as it was too dangerous to leave them in your care. My TOU has updated and you can’t even see it anymore as you’ve been banned from every single server for your behavior, prompting you to make your own.

This mother daughter pair scramble to hide their past, actively defend themselves, and threaten legal action when they are almost always in the wrong and it’s embarrassing.

Lyn left her infant upside down, a comforter over his body as a “time out” for crying, left the house, and was surprised he suffocated and died.

To add, babies should NEVER be in these positions. This is incredibly dangerous and she willingly put them at risk daily before they died and got taken away. She has also threatened a pregnant woman and her baby, and made those screenshots public herself on a Google doc before promptly deleting it after being called out. Mind you, this case has been covered by news sources in other countries as it’s so bizarre.

To Creators: be careful who you lease/give them to as they may break your TOU at the slightest convenience.

To Viewers: be careful who you associate with.

Legal Source: https://nj.gov/njsp/news/2018/20180717b.shtml

This is directly from the state of New Jersey and therefore cannot be altered.

This post was made on my own accord and is in no way correlated to TES, their staff team, or any server I am in. This is the only post from me and the only one there ever will be. I have and always will act alone when I feel information should be shared. It is not to be twisted or misinformed.

I am on vacation having the time of my life, so I will not be responding or viewing any replies. Have the life you deserve.

Debunking Myths

Hey everyone.

This'll probably be the last post from me!

I won't be creating anymore, as I'm sure you've probably noticed. I'm not really bothered if things get sent around and reuploaded, because that's the nature of the Sims community.

I spotted a reddit post claiming I'd been caught stealing from the Sims 3 community, so I thought I'd do some quick debunking.

Here's a photo taken from Elin's website, which you can see had my Tumblr page linked all this time because I was officially one of the people converting IHTL stuff!

My Valentines collection was actually all meshed from scratch APART from the headband, which I used an EA mesh for out of pure laziness. Just because two meshes look very similar doesn't mean they're stolen! People use the same inspiration photos.

They aren't even the same shape, not to mention just how awful my topology is compared to the incredible ones Elin made!

The Valentines jump was actually created by Dalman Jump Co IRL! I intentionally made my version a little bit different to stay respectful.

Please always do your research and don't just assume things! If you're that convinced, speak to the creator or check the mesh yourself. This kind of behaviour in the community is exactly why so many of us have chosen to leave.

Hope this helps clear things up!

Credits to Elaine Rose and Elin Frederiksdotter for the images of the TS3 meshes in question. <3

First Snow of the Season feat. Levi & PЯ Starlit Cat

While the riders are competing in competitions in other parts of Chestnut Ridge or other countries, there is one person who stays grounded at the ranch and does the every day duties to keep our horses and other employees safe, happy, and healthy: Levi, the other owner of Roan & Dapple Ranch; Cowboy to the bones. This working season is especially exciting, as we were lucky enough to be considered for and given the opportunity to lease PЯ Starlit Cat from Paleo Reins. Lynx, the beautiful boy who is being worked today, didn't seem to be prepared at all to be working in the snow. It took a couple of minutes to coax him out of the shelter while he inspected the cold white dust that kept falling onto his nose which was poking out from the shelter. Eventually he was brave enough and the snow melted off of him when he was working and sweating, so it was worth the little wait to get him ready and going. We're sincerely hoping, especially after today, when our 3-month lease ends with him we will be considered for a permanent home for Lynx to stay. Already we can tell what a special boy he is - even Levi said he's one of his favourites already.

Eventing Breeders Trophy: Leg 7 feat. Sadie & R&DR Elfenbeinschloss; Morgan & BSH Freckle Foot Shindig; Jill & ASA Süßes Gift

We're nearing the end of the Eventing Breeders Association yearly eventing run, but we have been determined to catch up to some of the more advanced horses in the club while we still have the chance. This time, during Leg 7, we brought back some of our best competitors to take home more glory. Returning are Sadie Harken riding Castle (our grey Anglo-Arabian mare), Morgan Deacon-Bell riding Stevie (our dark bay Anglo-Arabian mare), and Jill Gilmore riding Sicarelle (our chestnut appaloosa Araloosa mare). All of our riders and our horses did their best and competed fabulously, as that is nothing short of Roan & Dapple Ranch standard. Once again, we're so blown away by the talent, drive, and love that this team - both human and horse - have for one another and the sport. Soon it will be 2025, and that will bring a whole new set of challenges and hurdles to our ranch, but we'll be tackling it the same as we always do.

Darnty Equestrian Tournament Christmas Competition feat. Morgan & BSH Grandiosity and R&DR Romantisch Aussehendes Glas

Up next in the 2'6 Hunter course was our champion rider Morgan on another new stallion ours, BSH Grandiosity, who we have been calling Grand for the time being until his name comes to us. Simply put: Grand has some growing to do still. As he is a new horse to the field of jumping and overall performing, he's still got some stuff to learn on how to listen to his rider and react in better timing to things happening around him. Luckily he wasn't spooky or anything like that, which wouldn't have been a problem for Morgan anyway. The two still finished, and Morgan immediately figured out what would be the best training plan to put in place for him when we all got back home. And last but definitely not least, in the 3' Hunter was Morgan with top performer R&DR Romantisch Aussehendes Glas who we call Pewter. We pulled out the big guns for the end of the competition and did they ever deliver. Hot blooded stallion Pewtie didn't take a moment to hesitate sprinting towards any jumps, and knew no fear when it came to testing his limits with Morgan. Capable as always, Morgan didn't let him get away with even one stride out of place as they reached for the gold.

Dartny Equestrian Tournament Christmas Competition feat. Ryleigh & R&DR Crack a Cold One; Jill & BSH Top Notch Heartthrob

Roan & Dapple Ranch was excited to be a part of the Darnty Equestrian Tournament: Christmas Competition! We had a large roster of horses lined up for this, so it was a lot of planning and organization simply just to get there - the training, dressing, presenting, and competing was a whole other story. First up for the 0.90 Jumper was owner Ryleigh Knox and her mare R&DR Crack a Cold One, who we call Scout. Scout, being ever so dependable and safe for all levels of riders, made Ryleigh feel completely at ease going over the obstacles. It was a good bit of experience for Ryleigh to compete in this as she needs more time to get used to the jumping arena and figuring out how to maneuver the jumps like she would barrels. Oddly enough, what made it easier for Ryleigh in the arena was being able to wear a comfy but ugly Christmas sweater. The next competitior of ours competing in the 1.10 Jumper were Jill and new stallion BSH Top Notch Heartthrob but known as Deuxce in the barn. Showing off in her very extra "Christmas Candy Cane Competition Garment" - as Jill put it - it didn't hinder these two from showing off and showing out in the competition. Jill being a talented rider and Deuxce being a talented horse is just a match made in holiday heaven.

Stock Horse Racing Association Fall Classic feat. Ryleigh & R&DR Rebel Heart Ferrari

Roan & Dapple Ranch was excited to be a part of the very first Stock Horse Racing Association's Fall Classic! Up until the recent creation of the club, we were simply using our stock horses for ranch work and other various western competitions. We knew we wanted to include one of our stallions who loves to run his little heart out, and that would be our incredibly loved and fast R&DR Rebel Heart Ferrari - but around her, we call him Warwick. And who better to ride him around the track than our owner and speed enthusiast, Ryleigh! The two had so much fun tearing up the dirt at the racetrack on event day, it was great to see the both of them letting loose. By the time the race was over, Ryleigh and Warwick were dead tired and were quiet the whole ride back to the barn.

Leopard Union Complex Scorpio Season feat. Jill & WWF Stray Spotlight

Roan & Dapple Ranch was excited to be a part of the very first Leopard Union Complex's showcase: Scorpio Season! Very green and very excited to be competing for the first time in her life was Willoway Farms and Roan & Dapple Ranch's co-owned mare, WWF Stray Spotlight - or, Superbaby. (Yes, that's her government name.) Being this was her first time competing, we didn't know what to expect from her. Dad's calm and quiet, mom is a diva with attitude. Who did she get a majority of her personality from? Both - much to our delight. With her level headed approach to the ring - like dad - she was showing off plenty of fancy moves - like mom. Overall, for her first competition, aside from needing some reassurance from WWF Stray Garnet, Superbaby was just as name suggest: A super baby!
