Horse Ranch radio as BG TV

My sims had the surprise season premiere holiday today, and I had the thought of, in a couple of decades, my sims gathering around the radio to listen to radio dramas for that. But I don't know of this radio being converted to a TV, so I made it, for when it's appropriate.

All 14 original swatches from the horse ranch vintage radio. Works just like a TV, except that there are no visual effects, including when it's broken--you'll need to click on it to see the repair/replace options--and sims can't play video games, because that seems a bit ridiculous so I removed it. They will still use the default remote/whichever override you have installed.

Sims can listen to their favourite broadcasts (shows and movies), and should act just as they would if it was a TV.

§500. Found under TVs. Tagged with the Vintage decor style. Colour tagged the same as the HR radio. Goes in small decor slots--you're responsible for making sure your sims can access it. NOT off the grid compatible.

Should be appropriate for anywhere from the 1910s (but rarely) to the 1940s (but probably not brand new), which is convenient since actual TVs became popular in the 1950s.

Calliope's Cradle

A late Jeffmas addition.

This cradle comes in 5 wood tones and 15 total swatches (each wood tone comes with the option of patterned, solid color, or off-white bedding).

Calliope's Cradle acts as a crib and supports infants. The ability to apply any upgrades to the cradle has been removed.

Please note that animations which involve adult sims placing their hands on the side of the crib will not line up correct. Additionally, infants who can pull to stand will not hold the side of the cradle correctly (but if an infant can pull to stand they really shouldn't be in a cradle anyways).

The DECO_BASSINET version supports newborns when paired with an invisible crib mod. Don't have an invisible crib mod? I recommend this one.

A special thank you to @surelysims who saw the finished mesh and said can I do the handpainting and I thanked my lucky stars. It's looks 100x better because of her.

New Random Bug Fix

Change Diaper via Changing Table Fix This should fix the Bug where changing Diapers on the Changing Table will reset Sims. While testing this I sometimes had another Issue, where after clicking on the Changing Table and choosing an Infant the Interaction would get cancelled instead of my Sim going to get the Infant. I tried to fix that as well.

~ Middle Class Apartment Guide by Lili~

Main focus on Central Europe

Let's start with a story first:

My grandma lived in a house which was built in the 1920s. When I was younger, I always played tag with my siblings and cousins there. It's layout looked something like this:

See? No corridor. You could access a room by going through another. Perfect place for tag! When I build, I imagine kids playing tag and running around the rooms.

MY RULES:

❗ Walls:

Straight & logical.

Keep in mind that they are made of bricks

Therefore they are heavy

So if you build more floors, the main walls should be in the same position in all floors!!

❗ Fireplaces

Every fireplace belongs to a chimney, but there aren't as much chimneys as rooms

Every important room must be heated! ...but how? With logic!

RED DOTS shows where to put a fireplace

Every fireplace should be on the same position in all floors!

in modern homes, you can have radiators: place them under the windows!

❗ Plumbing

Kitchen, WC, Bathroom

These rooms should be next to each other!

Sinks, toilets and bathtubs should be as near to each other as possible

BLUE DOTS shows where to put them

HOW TO PLACE ROOMS? ~ Detailed description

👞👠 Hall

first place you see when you enter

a lot of cabinets for random stuff, clothes, shoes, clothes hangers and boxes, etc...

👪🛋️ Living room:

the center of the composition, representative

sofa and armchairs, piano, radio & gramophone, etc...

in some cases there was a table with 4-5 chairs for dining purposes, if there was no individual dining room.

it's always facing to the street as well as the bedrooms

🥂🍰 Dining room:

radio

representative cupboard with luxury plates

wasn't very common, but sometimes there were place for it

Originally, bigger apartments had 3 representative rooms: one bedroom, one living room and one dining room, but since ppl had children, they made the dining room into an other bedroom

Therefore most of the time the dining table was in the living room.

🛌💤 Bedroom:

usually a master bedroom and one for the children

You could mainly access it trough the living room

The doors were open most of the time

since an average apartment didn't have space for a study, the desk was close to the windows, and behind it, there was a bookcase

facing to the street always!

🛁🚽 Bathroom:

Sometimes you could access it trough the hall & the master bedroom too

the toilet was always separated from the bathroom

usually had no windows, or a small one which opens to the side of the house

🧹🧽 Maid's Room:

Lot of households had maids. They were young unmarried girls from the country, or old poor lower-class widows

wasn't the best job, but it provided a great opportunity to break out of poverty

they had a separate room with a bed and a cupboard, but sometimes they slept in the kitchen

this room opens to the hall or you can only access it trough the kitchen

🔪🧇 Kitchen

it was a separate and small room facing to the inner garden

besides the stove & basic kitchen furniture, it had a small table in the middle or next to the wall with 2-3-4 chairs.

If the home was small, this could be the dining area. In this case, use a pretty table here

If the dining area wasn't here, it was for the maid, and was used for cooking. Then use an average boring table here.

HOW DOES A WHOLE BUILDING LOOK LIKE?

Representative rooms are facing to the street!

STAIRCASES, HANGING BALCONIES: Main features of old tenement houses & my sources

🌸Arcades, corridors, hanging balconies

every apartment can be reached trough them

use your imagination

ppl often decorate it with flowers

others use it for a terrace

🏵️ Staircases & Elevators

there are two types of staircases !

One of them is the main representative staircase that almost opens to the street. It's richly decorated with tiles and frescoes. At the end of the stairs there is corridor. You can find at least 5 trashcans and a lot of mailboxes & bicycles there.

In many houses, the stair has a square or oval shape, and in the middle, there is an elevator.

The other one is for the maids. It isn't decorated at all, and as small as possible. It opens to the inner garden.

🌹 Maids & Families ~ Keep in Mind

I marked the route of the maids with BLUE, and the family's with RED

They tried to meet the maids as little as possible. That’s why the maid’s room is next to the kitchen, and that’s why a separate staircase was built for them. Many times they had a separate door to the hanging balcony and to the street.

PLACING THESE INTO THE GAME

❗ Wall thickness

Brick walls in real life are thick, and somehow EA thinks we only need thin paper walls. Well, no...

The angle of the walls sometimes not 90 or 45 degree,

❗ Wall height

Medium is the best for upper floors, high for ground floor if you have no living area there

❗ Size

The biggest lots are 64x64, but they are in the middle of nowhere

You'll always have to edit the original layout and add a staircase

The big corridor can be in the center, or the corner of the house

Sometimes there was enough space for cars and carriages, but it was more common to be used only by humans.

When these houses were built, there were no cars! Just keep in mind. If you don't have enough space for a car there, it's okay, since ppl used taxi or public transportation. A small, 3 tiles wide corridor is accurate as well.

Flower shops , restaurants, and various other stores operated on the ground floor.

❗ Some ideas for ground floor layouts:

~ MY SOURCES AND INSPO ~

FORTEPAN ~ best for furnishing. Type 'interior' to the search bar. Typing "ELADÓ NAGYPOLGÁRI LAKÁS" ~ (upper middle class apartment for sale) They include blueprints! This Facebook Goup ~ in Hungarian as well, but you can see the inside of these gorgeous tenement corridors. Memorizing each house I enter ~ yeah, I do this for fun. Best way to understand their logic.

Hope you liked my 2k followers gift <3
