No Outdoor Shadows Part I (Part II is here) Simsanto Inc. shared some of these a few years ago, I added some others and combined them into two files: 1. zz_shasta_NoOutdoorShadows_supplies is only useful if you have ft and al. 2. zz_shasta_NoOutdoorShadows_rugs is only useful if you have HugeLunatic's Off Grid Rugs Fix. It shouldn't hurt anything if you don't have all eps/sps.

^ I couldn't remove the above rugs' outdoor shadows, phooey. If I had, the file would need to load after Lunie's zz_HL_RugFixesDL_ALL. I kept the zz_ file name in case I ever figure out the baseball rug.

Many thanks and credit to: @simsantoinc, please get their shadowless bg & mg flowerbeds @hugelunatic for their off-grid rugs fix Recommended: @tvickiesims' algae fixes

edit! June 2026 A friend let me know why I couldn't remove the shadows from the rugs in the last pic: load order :/

Numenor's updated _EnableColorOptionsGMND should be placed loose (not sub-foldered) in your Downloads folder

zz_shasta_NoOutdoorShadows_rugs needs to load after HugeLunatic's zz_HL_RugFixesDL_ALL.

Wayback Machine still has the S2A life stories post for me, but if anon still can't see it, here's your SFS for the buy bundle stuff, and the build bundle is still at MATY.

Aah friend thank you! I'm not very good with Wayback Machine, thanks again <3

[shastakiss]

Hey shasta, sorry to bother you but do you think you could reupload the life stories bundle? S2A is down and wayback machine isn't working for some reason :/

Hey could someone please help this anon? I haven't written off S2A as never-coming-back btw Here's just the archive but I hope someone can help with Wayback Machine edit someone helped!

Hello! Just wondering if you knew anything about the GoS maintenance? Just tried to get on for the first time in a while and it's updating (yay but not yay I can't get in </3) Thank you!

Hello! I just answered another ask about this, HugeLunatic is working on it but it's not going well so I don't know if/when it'll be back up, sorry

[shastakiss]

Hi, Shasta. Do you know why hugelunatic's tumblr was deactivated? And does this have any relation to GoS, Sims2Artists and their personal website (hugelunatic com) also being down? For GoS I'm getting a message about the site being on maintenance, while on S2A, it says "Fatal error: Array and string offset access syntax with curly braces is no longer supported in /home/gosadmin/sims2artists.com/Sources/Subs.php on line 3873," and their website simply never loads :/ I hope it's nothing wrong with Lunie :(

Hi! I messaged HugeLunatic at MTS, they are okay but just not interested in Sims right now (I'm hoping this is temporary). They said they're working on GoS but the forum is so old and so big that trying to update one thing usually breaks another. They are slogging away at it though and we should send thoughts and prayers :P

Sims2Artists is back up and they've moved their tutorial site (A Lunatic Idea) to wordpress here but lost their domain name which is why we couldn't find it

Lunie didn't say what was going on with their tumblr, either I forgot to ask or they just missed that part of my message... or something more ominous *twirls mustache*

hi shasta! I reached out last year about the Klippan pillow Ikea repo not working for me. I ended up going back to the BG version, which works with some recolors but not others. Randomly, today I tried the Ikea version again and am still having the issue of not being able to use the design tool on the pillows. I have the ultimate collection (through osab), and I was wondering if maybe the Ikea version of the pillows could be struggling to find the proper files or something? I just don't know what the issue could be. any insight? thank you!

Hi! I'm glad you messaged me again, I don't know why I made those pillows so complicated. Here are Tinkle's six meshes, all repositoried to the KLIPPAN loveseat cushion so IKEA is required. I added shadows a few years ago and re-categorized them to comfort: misc. Any recolors of the loveseat cushion ~should~ work with these

Anon, please let me know whose recolors still aren't showing up for you if the edited set above doesn't fix the problem

Speaking of recolors, I compiled mine - simblrbday's animal faces - 2-tone stripes and YanderePlum's Halloween Damask in yeti colors - 12 Days of Spooky 2022 - solids in cluedo colors - YanderePlum's Halloween Damask in cluedo colors

Thanks and credit to Tinkle and @yandereplumsim

Hey Shasta,

Hope you’re well 🙂

Random question but back in the day did you use Jonesi’s blanket much? If you did what recolors by what creators did you mainly use?

Hey I should have answered this sooner oops I downloaded lots of Jonesi blanket recolors back in the day but didn't use it much. @amythestfenix has beautiful ones!

[shastakiss]

hey! I recently downloaded your maxis stair recolors from sims2artists. do you know where I could find sunnisims' original simple structure fence? i'd like to have maxis recolors of the fence in addition to yours. thanks :)

Hey! I was pretty surprised to find exactly what you asked for in my ancient sims 2 desktop hoard whoa

Hey Shasta, hope you're doing well! Some time ago in GoS (I believe), I saw recolors of some of the in-game flower pots eith invisible recolors for the flowers. Were those by any chance yours? If so, and if its not too much trouble, could you share the link please?

Hey, I'm good - hope you're doing well too!

The invisible flower rcs are here o/

A few WCIFs:

Does anyone know if @princessbliss-sim's hobbit door and window (couldn't find the original page) has been fixed by anyone yet? They look like this at night and when viewing from certain angles (in daytime) they are darker/lighter. I also don't think they let light "in", the rooms are always pitch black when I'm using them. If no one has done this, how would one (me) fix this?

@shastakiss (hi!) have you (or someone else) repo'd the tub+curtain on this tub to the BG comboclean tub's curtains+tub? (tub tub tub) as it is now, it needs custom recs (omg my english is so bad do I make any sense??)

Higher mailbox+trashcan lod90-default? I swear I used to have this but I can't for the life of me find it. (basically a tiny default replacing the lod90-meshes with the lot-meshes)

I have once again managed to delete a wallpaper I didn't mean to (I hate past me for merging so many walls). Thread with pics here.

Thanks in advance!!

[shastakiss]

Here's an updated version of shasta_combocleannickel for Pets/FreeTime - porcelain tub/rim subset is repositoried to the bg colonial bathtub - curtain subset is repositoried to the bg colonial tub/shower - everything else is nickel/silver and not recolourable - requires Numenor's CEP-EXTRA_ColonialShowerTub

I tried so hard but the curtain is no longer animated >:|

It should work with any default replacement bubbles/bathwater depending on load order

Hello! Just wanted to say that I love your work and thank you for it! Also, recently i've been getting back into the sims 2 and downloaded the Life Stories objects but unfortunately my game was crashing with the "Chair_Dining_Nominell" package. Not too sure why but thank you again and I hope you have a beautiful day. <3

Hello and thank you for the kind words!

The Nominell chair is pre-order bonus and requires the IKEA stuff pack - do you have that? We can probably find a version of the chair that doesn't require IKEA if not.

Or do you mean that having the Nominell chair and the Life Stories objects in your game at the same time causes crashes?

Hi Shasta, sorry to bother you with this, don't know who else I could ask.

I have a problem with a Leefish window ((https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=307794) It's the one tile shuttered one from LaFenetre. There's no glass in mine (also not when used diagonal). I tried to use it with no other downloads in game, but still no glass. Do you have any idea on how to fix this?

Hello, no bother!

I checked them in game just now and they had glass but I noticed my straight and diagonal files for this window were modified in 2022. So someone fixed the missing glass a few years ago!? Thanks and credit to Leefish (love and miss you) ts2 download sfs - mf

hello i'm so sorry!!! been searching thru hell and back just to find a skin called "autopical" by CrabOfDoom from the GoS October Project - Halloween! thread in gardenofshadows, by any magical chance maybe u have a functional link ?????

Hello, I'm sorry I don't have @crabofdoom's default zombie version of that skin but the non-default by Bosie is included in their Anton sim shared here if that helps (-Problematique- All They Know.package)

the link for your LS bali study set is broken :(

Hello, I apologize! I managed to break (?) my tumblr years ago and sometimes links are only clickable if 1.) the text is long enough and 2.) you click at the very tail end of it Post in question - hover your mouse over the 'a' or 'd' in 'ts2 download' and it works but here's the link in case you're fed up (don't blame you)
