here are my successfully converted fishing boats, converted from ts2 to ts3

download - simfileshare .package and .sims3pack files

what they look like without shaders

list of fishing boats I've converted:

irma - green hull, white wheelhouse diane - blue hull, pale yellow wheelhouse lilith - dark brown hull, red wheelhouse maude - entirely yellow mamie - brown hull, yellow wheelhouse kynda - yellow hull, white wheelhouse coral - entirely in teal (nameless in my files, sorry!)

notes:

the darker boats might look a bit pixelated (lilith with her dark red wheelhouse for example), but the white/pale wheelhouses all look pretty good.

the fishing boats might go invisible from far away on lots specifically, the ones i put down in caw are visible no matter the distance. to put them down on lots, turn on moveobjects and give them a small underwater mountain to sit on, so they don't turn into sunken fishing boats.

please let me know if you experience any other issues.

for some of the boats i wrote in fun facts about old sailor's superstitions in the description. they're old, but we certainly abide by these superstitious rules on my ship still. good thing i don't even know how to whistle.

what torneskär looks like with @boringbones' incredible lighting mod

another update on torneskär. a little house down by the sea

if i were to build this again, i would probably build it on a lower foundation, but i guess we'll see how it fits in with the harbour behind it

rainy sunsets are my favorite

this is what my world is looking like at the moment. i'm inspired by the scandinavian building style and i try to stay within that vibe with this world, but i'm playing around and experimenting a lot with the gardens, trying to achieve a certain feel to them.

whatever grows here does so in spite of the elements, so i decided i didn't want it too green or lush. it might technically be desert or tropical plants, but what do we know? seeds from far away certainly could have made its way here and found conditions to grow in.

sometimes i go a bit overboard with plants so i've gone back to edit these gardens many times and probably will continue to do so, i'm going to try to pick out 3-4 plants to decorate with for each house so it feels cohesive and not so overwhelming.

but yeah :D

other than this, i recently built a book café, and a little fishing cottage (sjøbu/sjöbod) over by the bridge, down by the harbor (out of view on the one picture i included of the bridge) which is actually the criminal lair. i also built a fishing cottage by the harbor and a small red house on the other side of the island, but more pictures to come of course.

i recently got a new computer and i'm struggling with the camera controls in caw. using 2 and 8 to move the camera vertically doesn't seem to work. if you know anything about how to change the camera control hotkeys, please let me know.
