TS2 Maxis-Match Lingerie Store Set

Hello, I'm still alive! I had to take a long break from Simming, but I've finally finished this collection and wanted to release it.

Reintroducing Bella's Secret lingerie store set by RetailSims! Now available in sweet pink or spicy black motifs. Featuring more objects than you'll know what to do with :D

There are four Maxis-match sets in this collection: the K&B lingerie set (3 colors), a new bra mesh using the Freetime sewing machine dress textures (6 colors!), the K&B camisole set (3 colors), and the Basegame slip nighties (4 colors).

For the mannequins and the furniture, I wanted to capture that high-gloss look that a lot of lingerie stores use, and I discovered that the perfect in-game texture was…the grand piano?? So all the display objects are repo'd to that object and come in either glossy black or white (or whatever other recolors you may have). The velvet panels are either pink or red and are recolorable.

The shelving unit is actually three distinct pieces: a panty/bra counter with 15(!) slots you can fill, a double row wall display rack (15 slots), and a single row wall display rack for longer hanging items (8 slots). These live in Surfaces > Shelves for §241.

All of the hanging items can be hung on your Sim's wall for decoration, but they are also aligned to perfectly slot into the wall racks. I personally find it relaxing to fill up the display cabinets, and you can mix and match to your heart's content! You'll find all the clothing in General > Dressers for §18.

I also made some objects to sit on the countertops or in the drawers. Everything is repo'd to a parent object to reduce file sizes, so if you're interested in recoloring the lingerie, check the filenames for the PARENT objects and you'll be able to make your own varieties.

Lastly, I recreated RetailSims's shop sign, but this time in Simlish. I did my best to keep the polycount as low as possible, but be warned it's still high poly. It spans 6 tiles and is EXTREMELY shiny. Comes in black or white! Found in Deco > Wall for §800

I highly recommend you get RetailSims's original wallpapers (archive link to the dead site is here). All original idea credit goes to RetailSims, I just fell in love with their set years ago and wanted to refresh it to match the game's original aesthetics.

Download

I may need to disappear offline for another lengthy break, but I'll stick around for a few days after I post this to check for any problems, so let me know if anything isn't working your game. Enjoy!

RetailSims Satanic Set

So I noticed RetailSims.com is gone now. It's likely due to internet decay and most likely permanently gone, so I have taken the liberty to reupload the Satanism Set from that site, which is pictured below.

The set comes with 16 objects, some of which have recolors. The objects are bundled in a collection you can see in residential or community lots. The Lady on Red and recolors have a dependency on CEP, the rest are standalone.

All items are from retailsims.com and are unaltered. If the original uploader, HChangeri from Retail Sims, wishes these to be taken down, please send me a message and let me know. Again, I take no credit for these items and am only reuploading to maintain community access because I love these cc items and can't live without them!!

Download (google drive) (simfileshare)

Edit: I guess I'm a few years late to the party and some awesome people already archived everything from retailsims. that's awesome! but……. I'm just gonna go ahead keep this up just because I already made the post :p

It depends on people going along with whatever they are told. The media promotes a cultivated stupidity as a posture that is not only acceptable but laudable.

Retailsims re-upload

Since retailsims is closing down, I spent the whole day yesterday downloading everything from the site. I’ve re-uploaded all things over at SFS here. Pictures, zip files and screenshots from the site is included in every folder. I couldn’t download some things so if it’s not included, that’s why (I also wrote this on the screenshot if that’s the case, showing which download is not included).

I also totally missed that Fireflowersims had already uploaded everything here, if I’d seen this I wouldn’t have spent the whole day yesterday doing this lmao but oh well, doesn’t hurt to have one more backup I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lastly, I think I accidentally copied a zip file (from another set) into another one in the OFB folder, so if you find a zip file in a zip file which obviously doesn’t belong there, you know why haha. I’m really not going to go through 62773827473 files just to find which one I accidentally copied a file into, hope you understand.

All credit goes to retailsims of course, I own nothing.

Edit 2020-06-10: I realised that I missed some screenshots of the site in the landscape.zip, they are now updated and included! There was also a wall (Asian7) which wasn’t downloadable, I re-did it in Homecrafter (by using the picture available on retailsims) so that’s now included as well.

Edit: 2020-07-23: since I’ve taken over @sims2packrat I decided to move this folder to my sims2packrat folder. Or I thought I did, but it turns out: I deleted every. goddamn. folder. 

Yeah I hate myself too.

Retailsims Cardboard Cat Bed recolored in Simlish, as a fulfilled request for @ajaysims. Thank you for making so many great fonts (including this one) to Simlishify things! I need them to live.

I went ahead and defaulted the textures instead of making a recolor, so if you already have it installed you can just let mine replace the original.

So hey @criquette-was-here​ @lowedeus​ @greatcheesecakepersona​- I have a Hood Deco Problem/Modding Question/Possibly Request If You’re Interested.

I absolutely adore RetailSims’ floating islands.  

I use them in just about all of my hoods that have a fantasy theme- the crystals especially are so cute. The problem is twofold- a) they hang too low in lot/hood view for my taste, a lot of the time it just looks like they’re balanced on the ground, and b) I’d like one that moves- like the hot air balloon or the flying pig, or maybe like the Great Sky Of Totalitarianism- but is visible from lot view. 

I can do the retextures myself, but I’ve never made a piece of hood deco myself so I’m totally freakin’ stumped. How would I even start to go about making these? 

[sims2packrat]

I don't know if you've heard it already, but retailsims will be closing very soon. I have a full archive with previews already. (Simfileshare. net /folder/89774/) and the files have been sent to both the Graveyard and the Sim Archive Project (with all previews!), so no files will to be lost. Anyways, I thought I'd let you know.

(link made clickable) Thank you so much for putting together this archive! It’s sad to hear that yet another site is closing down though. :(

Where I can find kind of...cc creation list by CHANGERI? The creator had site RETAIL SIMS.

Hello lenarosic88! :-D I'm not sure if such a list exists, but you can find everything from retailsims here, and I just discovered that liquidsims has archived retailsims' website here! :-)
