World Adventures Ruined Column made functional!

While legislation prevents us from selling the original, our faithful replica of this stunning Al Simharan piece is guaranteed to fit any architectural style. You will feel like a true monarch in the shadow of this fine, machine-carved beauty!

A few months ago, someone posted in the Creators' Cave Discord about this column, originally a deco object, being made into a functional one, so I decided to take up the challenge. It took a bit to get to it as I worked through other projects, and it still hasn't turned out as well as I'd wanted, but eh — it's still something!

The 1x and 2x columns have a 1x1 footprint.

The 3x column has a 2x2 footprint.

They cost $150, $300 and $450.

Polycount (all): 1652.

Basegame compatible — neither World Adventures nor Ambitions are required.

✨ Ramble section The part I'm most dissatisfied about is that I had to resort to making three separate files instead of one that made use of the Ambitions column slider. Unfortunately, while I have been able to link one "batch"...that only happened once. Because any other clones that used the same script would have the 2x and 3x defaulting to the first clone's — essentially, only one CC column worked with a particular script.

I haven't been able to figure out how the 2x and 3x columns are linked to their 1x counterpart, so I guess it has to do with scripting 🤷‍♀️

Private Clinic - Optometry (+ updates)

So this is the optometry portion of my Private Clinic mod (eventual series). I had hoped to get this out much earlier but just lost interest/motivation but I managed to eke through with hours of 2024 to spare. 😅 Procrastination and I are long-time friends so I'm pretty proud of myself -- the old me would have just dumped this project and moved on to some new shiny. That's not to say that I didn't but at least this time I came back to it!

What this does:

Adds the ability for licensed doctors (see private clinic for details) to run an optometry clinic and treat patients.

Creates astigmatism and a couple of other eye diseases for Sims

Adds update to the clinic system allowing you to set office hours as a doctor, or make appointments as patients, track billing, income and expenses, among other new features

A few updates to the Private Clinic Psychiatry module such as more buffs added that can be treated and being able to use the main controller's payment system.

There is A LOT of information so please read through the documentation (there's two, a new one for the PC core features and one just for optometry) before using and bug reporting. This is a scheduled post (I'm currently under a table somewhere eating grapes) so please don't DM me with any bug reports. Instead, please log it here. If you see the same issue you're experiencing already logged, then just add your name or number to the "I have it too" column.

DOWNLOADS:

Private Clinic main files - Please sort the files list by date so you can see the 5 files which have been updated/added for you to download. You NEED the MAIN file, MaladyManager and prescription objects to run any of the modules. The rest depends on which features you want.

Addons to Store Forest Curtains

Since the vampire bed wasn't bad enough, I decided to take on this project: making 2- and 3-tile versions of this Store curtain. This time I got to figure out diagonal states, so that was fun 🙃 And I ended up making a slightly wider version of the original 1-tile version anyway, since it clipped with any window that touched the edges of that 1-tile space, and I hated that. You can see how all versions look above, against the basegame 'Back to Basix' window.

This set contains three curtains — 1x, 2x and 3x. They all come in 3 presets and 3 channels; the third channel (the rod) isn't the greatest in terms of pattern tiling. All curtains can be shifted on the wall, and cover the same number of tiles diagonally (e.g. the 2x curtain will cover two tiles in both the normal and the diagonal version).

Polycount: 358 (1x), 422 (2x), 486 (3x)

⚠️ Since the curtains don't snap to walls (intended behavior, not a bug), you will have to use the < and > keys to rotate them before placing.

For future reference, I used these TSRW flags to make the base mesh and the diagonal mesh shiftable:

Normal mesh: ObjectTypeFlags: HideWhenWallDown, AllowWallObjectOnGround; WallPlacementFlags: WFMinZ, WFOnWall, WFApplyCutoutDiagonalShift, WFCanBeMovedUpAndDownOnWall.

Diagonal mesh: ObjectTypeFlags: HideWhenWallDown, IsDiagonal; WallPlacementFlags: WF01To10Diag, WFOnWall, WFIntersectsObjectsOffWall, WFCanBeMovedUpAndDownOnWall.

A new script mod by Draylson!

Draylson mod notes:

The Second Hand Goods Register allows your Sim to sell any object from the Sims' Inventory and Family Inventory, including some annoying objects that cannot normally be sold, such as certificates, diplomas, imaginary friend dolls, dead Sim/pet remains, among others.

The cash register is a clone of the General Register and is available among the other community objects, in the community lot build mode. Similar to the other cash registers, simply place it on a community lot, and a Second Hand Goods Merchant will be assigned to it.

When clicking on the Second Hand Goods Register and choosing the "Sell items" interaction, the Sim will interact with the Merchant and the Shopping Dialog will open. In the "Shop" tab, at least 20 second hand objects will be available for purchase, with values compatible with their depreciation level, simulating objects sold by other Sims to the Merchant. These objects are randomly selected from all the objects in the base game, expansions, stuff packs and custom content that are installed. The depreciation level of each of these objects is also set randomly.

In the "Sell" tab, all objects from the Sim's Inventory and Family Inventory will be available to be sold. The sale price of an object is 80% of its value, since the Merchant will have up to 20% profit on their resale.

When interacting again with the Second Hand Goods Register through the "Sell items" interaction, the items sold by your Sim will now be available for purchase in the "Shop" tab. If an item sold had a value of $0, it is characterized as a donation and will not be available for purchase.

Every day, an object is removed from the list, simulating the purchase of an object by another Sim. If the list of objects available for purchase falls below 20, another object is randomly added. However, this list is not saved with the game, that is, if you reload the world, a new list of objects for purchase is created. Download from Mod The Sims!

Snowflake Day Tree + Activities

I actually started to make this two years ago and forgot about it but then I got the idea to do it again and remembered that I had already written most of the code. It was sort of like finding money in your pocket you'd forgotten about. 😂

Much like in real life, I prefer to spend my holidays in-game with family instead of randoms and I just want to open presents without having to throw a Gift Giving party. So I made a Christmas Snowflake Day tree to do that where you can decorate and add gifts to open on Snowflake Day.

I also added some holiday activities for kids and toddlers if you the More Activities Activity Table. It's an add-on so you need that mod (and whatever requirements go with it) if you don't already.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

More info after the cut

Decorate the Tree (this is meant as a joinable group activity so you can invite others to join; up to 4 Sims (child+) can decorate) 

Add Tree Topper (if you have any)

Hang Ornaments (if you have any)

Turn On/Off Lights (if decorated)

Admire Ornaments (sims may get a nice holiday moodlet - Holiday Memories buff)

Add Gift for…

Look at Presents (get information on how many gifts are under the tree and to whom)

Steal Presents (only for Klepto, rebellious, Evil, Mean-spirited)

You will get in trouble if someone sees

Sneak a Peek at Presents - to check out any of your gifts

Invite Everyone to Open Presents - for Snowflake Day, brings everyone on the lot to open gifts under the tree; if someone doesn’t have gifts, they will watch others open presents and if they are in the household they will get a sad moodlet (What About Me buff). Gifts improve relationship score if Sims like it; does nothing if they don’t but if they get too many gifts they don’t like, they can complain about it.

Open Gifts - self explanatory. If you don’t want to gather everyone together, you can open gifts at any time on Snowflake Day (Feeling Grateful/Bummer Holiday)

Take Down Decorations

Put Away Tree

Sims can also:

Ask for holiday presents…Toy | Book | Vehicle | Computer | Electronics | Jewelry | Decor | Hobby Object | Sports Object

This is a one-time interaction that Sims can use on any family or household member. If a sim gets what they asked for, they will get a special buff (Just What I Wanted)

Thank for Presents (if they had a particularly good Snowflake Day)

Complain about Presents (if they had a bad one)

With the MAAT add-on, children and toddlers can also:

Make handmade ornaments and hang them on the tree. The ornaments can be stored in the decorations box.

Make handmade Snowflake Day cards for friends and family (kids only). You can give them directly to Sims or put them under the tree as a gift.

Notes and Recommendations:

To be able to utilize all the tree features, make sure there is enough space around the entire tree for Sims to gather and interact with the tree

Your Sims need to have a giftable object in their personal or household inventory to add a present to the tree

When a Sim has asked for a gift, the game checks whether any of the gifts they receive are in the same buy subcategory or object type as what they asked for so if, as example, a kid asks for a toy and you get them a cc toy that is categorized as a plant or deco object in the game, it’s not going to count. 

To gift jewelry, you need the TS3 Store Jewelry Machine or any custom wearable jewelry objects that is the same object type as the Store Jewelry box object

If you don't have my activities table mod and don't want it, then don't download the two MAAT files.

Requires Generations, Showtime and Seasons

Details and Instructions:

The tree and box can be purchased in the Entertainment/Hobbies Section (300 and 200, respectively), the tree topper in the Misc Deco (90) or they can all be found in the custom Snowflake Day collection file.

To decorate the tree, your Sim needs both the tree object and the decorations box. Custom ornaments and tree toppers go into the decorations box.

The tree comes with a default decoration but you can create and add your own tree decorations. The file has an XML (HolidayTreeDecorations) where you can add the Resource Key, Group ID for the OBJD of the decoration, whatever name you want to call it, whether you want it to light up or not, and the image (if you don’t want a custom image, just use the default one in my first entry).

Around the Sims 3 | Playable Baby dolls

On request! Playable baby dolls cloned from the teddy bear!

It will be released on Around the Sims 3 the 3rd of January (probably earlier, but these Christmas holidays will be a mess for me, I don't know where I'll be, where my computer will be, so... I say "3rd of January" to be on the safe side and not disappoint you! It’s available in early access for Patreons right now.

And no, sadly, as you might have noticed, no Advent calendar this year. Real life has been quite crappy this year again, and didn't let me enough time nor energy for a 12th Advent Calendar (also, honestly, I needed a break from it because I began to run out of ideas! :D)

[batsheba]

The season has started! Make sure to check out Simlicious awesome Advent Calendar 2024!!

Find a new goodie for your Sims 3 game every day from December 1st to December 24th in my annual Advent Calendar!

🎄Visit the Advent Calendar 2024🎄

Depending on your time zone, you may have to wait a bit for the goodies to unlock that day! Already unlocked doors will stay accessible throughout the event. I will release a full collection of everything after the event has finished as well.

Smaller Desks Part 2

Another batch of desks made smaller, this time ones that look a bit more "unusual" than the standard fare. The Little Princess's Little Desk presets match the Animal Friends Tall Shelf from HERE.

More smaller desks HERE.

Issues: if you use the PC with the CRT monitor, it will clip with the shelf on the Ode to Distraction desk. The desk footprints also look 2x1 but have an actual 1x1 footprint, and you can place objects to the side of them without MOO.

Started the project of renovating Riverview, lot by lot , without using custom content - except for RH rugs - . I’m also going to be using some free Store items, from time to time. Once done (which should take a while, I’m taking it slow), there should be a save file with all the makeovers, in the meantime here is the latest one.

ROUGHHEWN

Renovated on patch 1.67 -Originally in Riverview (Size: 40x40) - Lot Label: Residential

Renovated for a savvy sculptor or one who'd like to dabble in mud ^^ It's supposed to be a modern renovation of an old barn but I kinda got stuck with the old barn look . I'll try to make it more modern for the save file.

There will be Billy Caspian living there in the save File.

Using Items from: 

No CC, no Store Item

EPs: WA, Ambitions, Late Night, Generations, Pets, Showtime, Seasons, University Life and Island Paradise.

 SPs: High End Loft, Fast Lane, Outdoor Living, Town Life, Diesel and the Movie Stuff Pack. I also own Mastersuite and the 70s, 80s,90s packs but I’m pretty sure I haven’t used anything from these in this lot.

DOWNLOAD

I use markers on my lots: skip level, hidden room, public room… So to be able to modify any of  these buildings you need to have cheats on:  ‘testingcheatsenabled true��, then ‘restrictbuildbuyinbuildings false’ To see/remove the markers you need ‘buydebug on.

Simynthos - (almost) cc-free

With all testing done I am happy to share with you the (almost) cc-free version of Simynthos today! I was actually surprised by how quickly it could be transformed, and I have to say I'm very happy with how it turned out!

For this version I removed all decorative cc. The only cc you now need for full functionality are the rabbit hole rugs. The lots are so small, there wouldn't have been nearly enough room for the in game rabbit holes. The rabbit hole rugs can be downloaded here.

I still recommend using the performance mods from the original post here, just to make things a little more smooth and enjoyable during gameplay. But they are not strictly necessary. You could also go completely vanilla (more on that below).

There are a couple of things to note:

Some of the double beds are placed against a wall and therefore only one sim can sleep in them now. You can replace them with the one sided beds for two sims, the ones I used in the original version, if you like. The mattresses by sketchbook pixels can be found here, and some nice custom bed frames from @aroundthesims can be found here.

I did make use of @omedapixel's S3DT (Sims 3 Decorator Tool) in two or three places, just to place decorative items on surfaces where they cannot be placed in a vanilla game. You do NOT need the mod for these items to stay in place, as long as you don't move them when redecorating. Then they may slip back into normal mode and you will only be able to place them back with the mod. But it's only in a couple of places, so even if that happens, it will not have a significant impact on your game.

Replacing some of the cc did result in some interactive items not being usable at first, but I hope I caught all of those cases during the (quite extensively 😉) play-testing. So now all interactive items should be usable. If you find any place where an item can't be reached by the sims, please notify me and I will update the world.

How does it run?

I have tested this version of Simynthos in two scenarios: With the routing optimization mods I recommended for the original version (that's the save all the screenshots are from 😉), but also in a completely vanilla game, playing just a small family with one child, and it actually ran pretty well on my gaming laptop, even without any routing improvement mods (my game is optimized though)! If you're going completely vanilla, it may get a bit annoying in some places though, with sims not being able to pass each other, and toddlers not being able to be put down on the ground due to lack of space. But if you do not want to use any mods at all, it would probably still be playable with a small household that doesn't host huge parties 😉

Thanks again to the creators who have made this world possible:

Thanks to @nilxis, the creator of „Sa Pineda“, for the beautiful base to this world. The island on which Simynthos was build is entirely their creation. I did not change the island itself or the terrain painting outside the lots (except for some places where I placed the walkways/paths). All credit for that goes to them! You can find the original version here. Also make sure to check out their other worlds, while you‘ re at it. They are some of my favorite worlds!

Thanks to @nornities for their extremely helpful CAW guide here. Unfortunately I only found this guide when Simynthos was almost finished. I could have avoided some of the mistakes I made, had I found it sooner!

Some of you may know, that I am not the first to make a Greek version of Sa Pineda. Back in 2016 Vendela created Simtorini. This super cute world has the typical blue and white houses another Greek island, Santorini, is famous for. Go check it out here.

Around the Sims 3 | Sims 4 to 3 | Police Station add-ons

This makes me really old to write that, but remember I had converted Sims 4 Get to work police station almost 10 years ago? (no lie, it's here, uploaded in May 2015!) Selfishly, I had converted only the objects I had planned using in my own game, but a Patreon recently asked me if I could convert the items I had left behind at that time, so here are they!

@ravasheencc's Mint to Be Ice Cream Market - 4t3 conversion

THIS DOWNLOAD REQUIRES ARSIL'S ICE CREAM STAND MOD - WITHOUT IT, IT WON'T WORK

When I saw this set, I wanted to convert it on the spot, and when I looked at Arsil's mod, it would just be an OBJK change, so, super doable :)

Both ice cream stations are floating on counter height - I tried to make them fit a large slot at first, but it made both the seller NPC and the buyer sim float in the air. That said, put the station first, then the counters - even without placement flags, they can go over surfaces without reason, as Arsil also warned about at MTS. No need to use moveobjects on, though.

This time, only the sandwichboard and the wall sign (not the poster) are recolorable. There's really no reason for the other objects to be :P

All under 600 polys 8D

Wall sign and poster under Deco> Paintings, sandwichboard under Deco>Sculptures and the ice cream stations are both at Build>Community>Misc and Entertainment>Misc for ease of access, but it won't let a sim get free scoops if they're on a residential lot.

It's also a great add-on for @twinsimming and @olomaya's 4t3 Boba tea set <3
