The download contains two packages: The default replaces the schoolbus with the covered wagon, the buyable version is the same wagon which your Sims can buy and drive themselves. They're independent of each other - both can be installed or only one.
To get the default to show up in an existing save, clear your word-caches.
The buyable version has a CaSt-able second preset. Although it displays four channels, it uses only three. The horses are not recolourable. I chose dark ones to hide the fact that transparency is not working on them. The buyable object will also require a large parking-space.
Update Nov. 6th 2022: Added a version without the cover (wish of @pudding-parade ). The buyable versions can be installed alongside each other, but you can have only one version as a default.
A less punky retexture for historical settings. Now available for adult and teenaged Sims. The teen version is included as a linked file with shared textures and as a standalone version. It’s not pregnancy compatible.
I also included the shine-edit as a default for the Store top. (Original required, needs to be decrapified, if yours is.) This will edit both the adult and the teen top (because the Store uses linked textures too :) For some reason the adult top has no entry of its own on the Store page, but since I downloaded it, I think it must be in the complete set.
Top Mechanic
Removed the goggles. Consequently the top has some seams around the neck area and inside the scarf. It’s a standalone edit, the original is not required.

Steampunk Outfit Default Textures
Less shine, more contrast, rearranged channels
Non-recolourable neckerchief though
Original required
This is a default replacement. The package goes into your “Packages” folder. Unless your store content is installed there, in this case it goes into “Overrides”. If your store content is decrappified, this package must be too.
As my attempt at a medieval one turned out a bit meh, I was thinking about what I’d actually like to use ingame. It always did bother me to see my historic Sims in this spa-like environment, but it doesn’t have to be super medieval either. I always think of the CAS and Stylist room as the backstage area of the historic filmset. So I tried reducing the room to just the essentials. I think it messed up the lights on the shelf on re-import, but that’s the only apparent issue.
Fun fact: Did you know that the mirroring floor effect is achieved by an upside-down copy of the entire room underneath?
TSM CaS as Stylist Room Default Replacement (As Is)
This is meant to be an addition to the Medieval CaS Room, since, as a storyteller, one spends equally much time in Stylist. Honestly though, it didn’t translate as well as I thought it would; especially with the lighting being so gloomy. However, as some of you expressed interest in the project, here it is as shown above. Feel free to use it as a base or fiddle with the meshes and textures further.
The are two versions in the download - Pick only one!:
The one called "no_fire" will remove all chances of random fires.
The one called "no_objfire" leaves a chance of fire on the floor, if no Sim is in the room, but objects placed near the fireplace will no longer catch fire.
Chances of fires through playing with fire or any other accidents are untouched.
Wilderness Braid for male (and still for female) Sims
This is a default recategorizer: You have to download the actual hair, from here (or from here).
The hairstyle is now enabled for male, female, naked, everyday, formal, swim, sleep, athletic, outerwear, maternity.
Please note that the young adult hair will also show up for elders in CAS as an additional brunette thumbnail (the same way cc-hairs do). This is for users who didn’t install EA’s double-thumbnail-solution. You can use both versions on elders without problems.
Just a little mod I thought of while working on the bathtub. It always bugged me that toddlers don’t have a lower body in the bath. This is because there’s no item of clothing enabled both for “Naked” and “Valid for Random” that the game could choose from. So I enabled the diaper for these categories.
This mod will only directly affect toddlers who were created or aged up after you installed it. To fix the bug on existing Sims, see below.
Disclaimer: The seeming skintone-change on the toddler in the preview is because they’re two different Sims: One I had in game before and one aged up after installing the mod.
There are two versions included:
Default version:
Categorizes the diaper that is already in game for male and female toddlers and makes it available in the categories: Sleepwear, Swimwear, Naked and Valid for Random. This way you won't get random diapers in Everyday and Formal, but you'll also not be able to use the diaper in these two categories at all. If you sometimes use the diaper as everyday or formalwear, install the Nondefault Verson!
Nondefault Version:
Adds a hidden additional diaper to the game, which is categorized for male/female, Naked and Valid for Random. Won't affect the ingame diaper. Is a bit larger a file than the default, but with 62 KB still very small.

Other Useful Links:
https://www.nraas.net/community/Decensor -> for removing the mosaic filter, so you can see the bathing animations properly. Can be set by age, if you're uncomfortable with too much nudity. For toddlers and babies the censor mostly hides that they don't undress anyway, and with this mod they'll always wear at least a diaper.
https://www.nraas.net/community/MasterController -> allows you to edit the toddler in Stylist, while in the bath. That way you can set a lower body for pre-existing toddlers or pick a different bathing outfit altogether.
This mod doesn’t affect babies, but a few tips for changing their clothing for bathing can be found below the cut
NRaas MasterController (linked above) lets you edit the baby in Stylist. You’ll see the different categories there (Formal, Sleepwear etc), but do not click them, because they don’t work for babies. Instead go to Everyday and click the little “+” under the first outfit tab. It lets you set up to three Everyday baby-outifts.
A great source for baby outfits is QuizicalGin (a diaper-outfit is here). Hers are more ts3-match. An alternative baby-mesh (with clothing-links) can be found here (converted by me).
Back in game you can use MasterController to switch between the three Everyday outfits. Under “Settings” you can add a shortcut to “Sim/ Basic/ Outfit”. This makes it really quick and easy to switch between a Sim’s outfits during gameplay - even during an interaction. So when your Sim puts the baby in the bath, you can simply switch it into the diaper outfit and back again afterwards.
Great news! After @hypersims ran into this interaction, which was broken in a patch, I started thinking if I couldn’t undo the faulty changes. And I succeeded! What I did was simply to extract the original animation files from Generations and make them an override.
This package should work in Mods, but it’s even safer in Overrides. Generations is required for the interaction to be there at all.
Note that reading a toddler to sleep has always been a bit tricky:
The toddler must be tired
A parent with a toddlerbook in their inventory must hold the toddler.
Now, without pausing the game, make the parent active, click on the toddler, select “read to sleep” and then select the toddlerbook in the dialogue box. Make sure a crib is within reach.
Even like this I had to try at least twice until it worked.
