I wanted to try something so here are default replacements for all the cans I know of, using models from Animal Crossing: New Horizons. I have replaced the Base Game Instant Meal and Juice (from, you know, the snack menu), the FreeTime Protein Shake and the Apartment Life vending machine drinks. Like this.

There were several good options for the fridge juice so instead of picking one, or making you pick one, I made a mod that gives you a random option out of three.

Known issues:

The cans don't always fit great in the hand. I believe that this is also an issue with the original models.

The thumbnails in the action queue and thought bubbles do not update. I have my objects.package set to read-only and that might be why, but I don't know for sure.

The updated vending machine drinks only have names in English and Swedish. If you play in another language, the name will be displayed in English.

laundry WIP pics & bloopers

My favorite: sims repeatedly failing to fix their washing machine without professional help :D

But the real danger was where you'd least expect: some sim died of hunger during testing

The funniest animation bug -- the twitching leg

Me trying to hack animation editing with my mad scripting skills :D (it didn't work)

Oh the random-upside-down-laundry-bag bug.. It gave me so much pain that I actually suppressed the memory of what it was and how I fixed it :D

What if washer's door opened inwards :D

There also was a not-enough-space-for-my-butt problem Fixed by accident when Nikki moved machines' meshes back to the wall

Updates

Autonomous ocean swimming got a fix for the swimming-in-the-ground bug! All thanks to @episims and @gummilutt ❤️ Exciting!

Invisible Kitchen Surface got a fix for the disconnecting-corner-counters issue (it's more of a crutch-like workaround, so let me know if I broke it!)

[elfpuddle]

just a quickie upload to further complement @lamare-sims fantastic simple laundry mod

The laundromat set is separated and the dryer floats on its own so....they kind of go together that way. If you wanted a floor dryer, you can clone one of the dryers offered in the mod and swap for the washer model. I didn't do it cuz.... yep :)

NVIDIA DDS Utilities Download

Recently, I haven’t been able to get the download for the DDS Utilities to work on NVIDIA’s website (the download button doesn’t work, it just loads for a second and does nothing. I tested this on multiple devices). All the alternate downloads just link back to the broken NVIDIA site.

This is a big problem for new CC creators who want to work with textures in SimPE.

I had the file on my laptop, so I uploaded a mirror to my site & SFS (assuming that it’s actually working.)

I always find @powluna's kid stuff irresistibly cute and I wanna convert all of it, but sometimes something just jumps out at me. This time, that something was her Candace pj's. Had the timing gone differently, they might have been my xmas post. Instead, here we are in March. Still good weather for snuggly pj's.

Set as Everyday and Sleepwear, unisex, with fat morphs. (Fat morphs for the bows too.)

I'm a bit proud of myself for how I set these up. Despite the variations you see in the preview, there are just two meshes for this set. The top mesh has 3D bows that can be hidden (a little tricky for me) and the bottoms can have socks or bare feet (which was easy).

There are 24 shirts with bows, 54 shirts without bows, and 54 pants both with and without socks. Sock textures are converted from the TS4 BG using The Tattooer, and some are recolored by me. The barefoot pants are available repo'ed to the socks version.

I didn't make my own swatches this time, but powluna always includes full swatches in her posts. See her swatches here.

Download - SFS or MediaFire *repo and standalone pants included - pick one*

powluna recently did TS4 infant and toddler versions of these pj's, which might be even cuter. I was already thinking of doing a toddler version, now I really wanna. Probably not soon, but maybe in a couple of months. Will I do a baby version? Hmm. Less likely, but not impossible.

(image description: a three panel drawing with very simple sketched lines and only a little quick coloration. it depicts a woman sitting at a desk, with a computer keyboard, musing aloud; "sometimes I wish my creative works would just make themselves...", after which she is startled by the arrival of a stick figure with a square head labeled "generative AI," which replies; "I can do that." the final panel is the only one with detailed color and lighting, showing the artist whipping out a pencil-shaped laser gun and exploding the AI entity. end description.)

had a conversation in a writing server, decided to make a meme about it.
