no graffiti at the bluffs;

wanted a more natural look for my witchy save :-) gonna put a tutorial under the cut, but here’s a dl link if that interests u!

first you have to find the object you’re replacing, which is arguably the hardest part! for this, i sorted by pack (get together), enabled “show debug items” and searched “bluff”

the first option has both pieces that have graffiti on them, so i went with that! depending on what ur trying to edit, this part can be sort of trial and error.

go to the texture tab, and dig around until you find what it is ur trying to replace or remove! the graffiti is the last one. i exported it, deleted everything so it was just a transparent file, and then imported it over the existing texture. then save, pop in ur mods folder, and voila! no evidence of the pesky partiers!

so i forgot that updating a private post regenerates the link and now my overlay directory is broken/i can't find my skin preview posts so until i can get my shit together here you go:

updated frankie v1

updated frankie v2

updated quinn skinn

another ts4 generator;

I like to give my townies some skills and traits to add to their personality even if I don’t play them, so that’s where this generator comes in! I’d like to add to it in the future with things like activities and favorites, but you guys were interested in it as is so here’s the link (it looks a lot better on mobile)!

I’m still trying to figure out how to fix the traits so that you don’t end up with any that conflict one another, but in the mean time here is a more in depth generator for traits, and here’s some other random sim generators!

If you’re familiar with perchance, you’re more than welcome to edit this as much or as little as you want for personal use! If you’re not, I’ll start working on some little tutorials so you can customize it for you and your game. Let me know if you have any ideas, if anything needs to be fixed, or just feel free to show me what sims you come up with! thank u! :-)

adonis hair retextured;

I retextured this hair from @wistfulpoltergeist to match the original ea colors, and enabled it for both masculine and feminine frames! It has some issues around the sideburn area on the latter, but it’s not very noticeable.

make sure to grab the mesh!

follow this tutorial if you’d prefer to just have the retexture

please tag me if you recolor this version!

piece hair retextured;

mesh by @redheadsims-cc​ is needed

if you’d prefer to only have this version in your game, you can follow the tutorials here and here, but let me know if you need more help!

there are two versions: one with the alpha baby hairs included for my maxis mix pals, one without, and you can have all of them in game

tag me if you recolor this retextured version! :)

some real zestate for u guys

i’ve been asked to share and show more of johnny’s house, so here’s a lil download post for u guys! it’s on the gallery under johnnyzest, or u can get the tray files here. if u care, feel free to stick around under the cut for some details about him and the house!

it’s a bit bare, but i didn’t want to make it too cluttered bc like… he’s supposed to be a broke college dropout after all… i tried to stick to stuff that looks like he bought it from yard sales or flea markets, but i did include a few other things…

there’s a pet food bowl outside bc he feels bad for neighborhood strays and wants to take care of them all….. could he perhaps…. relate to them in some way……

handmade cards from frankie on the desk (next to his past due bills)

clock he took from the run down retro motel he used to live at before it got mysteriously demolished

not seen: journal on the shelf that he’s kept since nancy kicked him out and contains all his traumatic juicy secrets

guitar that frankie gifted him for christmas so that he could move up in his career :)

posters of the comedian that inspired him

jukebox that plays whats new pussycat 7 times, its not unusual 1 time, and then what’s new pussycat another 11 times

mic where he practices his routine to the rats infesting his house

yuma heights snowglobe…… that’s the lot across from the landgraab mansion just so u know…… do with that info what u will

poster of his favorite movie and reason he has a not so irrational fear of cowplants

obviously i had to keep the infamous candelabra that inspired this post

that’s all folks!! enjoy!
