LevelZap Utility

Sharing this handy little program that I finally tracked down again, I used to have it years ago and used it constantly, but since I got my new computer I couldn't find it for a while. SO glad to have it again.

If you're fussy like me about how your downloads folder is organized and how many subfolders you have, this makes organizing them so much easier. You just right-click the subfolder, "move content up and zap", it will move everything from that subfolder into the current working directory and delete that now empty subfolder, all in one click.

Awesome if you're like me and for example, want just one folder for a particular clothing item with all possible files in it, and no further subfolders for different ages etc.

love this blog!!!

First era: active simblrs

The first order of business here is to reblog all the content that was made and is being made by simblrs that are still active members of this community.

This does mean there will be a queue as I go through people's blogs and posting their CC on here, and it might get spammy so I apologize in advance. But hey, look on the bright side, maybe you'll find some old CC of that one creator you really like that you haven't seen before! You never know 😘

Second era: inactive simblrs

The second phase will involve digging a little deeper into other CC finds blogs and reblogging older content from simblrs that are no longer active parts of the community

Third era: separate blogs and wix-sites

Third phase will be to dig even deeper on individual websites of older creators. There will be separate posts made on the CC they released with as much relevant information as possible.

Fourth era: Mod the Sims

Next in the line up I will be going through Mod the Sims and making separate posts on this blog with all the information that is available. I will not be doing this for every post on the site, just the ones that are qualitatively good and/or useful, this includes programs.

Fifth era: The Sims Resource

It has to happen at some point sadly, so The Sims Resource will be scoured for all relevant posts. I will not be including everything that is on there, because there is a lot of frankly ugly and low quality stuff on there from the early years, but I will again be making separate posts for TSR sets and items of quality.

**This timeline is a loose draft of what I want to do. It is subject to change and during all eras I will still reblog newly released CC**

XOXO, gossip girl sim-songs, your ever loyal moderator lol 😊

God importance of food in HUNGER Games is such amazing aspect of the books and shows the mentality of both Katniss AND Snow.

Coriolanus learns that food is power. He sees Nero Prize cutting off maid's leg to eat it. He sees what tributes will do for food. He knows what Lucy Gray did for food. He knows what he would do for food.

In his eyes food is a luxury and ultimate means of manipulation. That's why there is a tessare system, that's why there are monthly packages for the winning districts, that's why Games are a yearly public spectacle in the Capitol. He keeps districts hungry for food and Capitol hungry for entertainment.

Katniss learns that food is love. It starts with Peeta throwing her the burned loaf of bread. Then goes further into her love for Prim, which is the main cause of her hunting. Then with Gale as her hunting partner. Then with Madge who is her best friend and loves strawberries. Then with Mr. Mellark who loves squirrels. Then with Rue and bread from District 11. Then with Peeta again, with the berries.

Katniss doesn't use the power of food over people. She shares it. That's how she builds connections, forms friendships, wins over people's hearts, starts and wins revolutions.

For Snow food it a tool with which you can sew starvation and chaos.

For Katniss food is a tool with which you can form bonds and find peace.

Crappy preview of crappy tights! No, but seriously, I tried really hard. I wanted those devil tights for my sims but I saw a few more cute tights and I thought I give them a try. And here they are! Nothing fancy but I thought I may share these. So consider this as followers gift? They don’t have custom thumbnails, sorry D: but they’re very dark in the cas so I think you should have no problem with finding them.

T.O.U Just don’t claim as your own but who would like to claim them as their own, tbh? xD

Download!

Thanks for every like and reblog! Muah! ♥

Utilities Mod by Twinsimming 💡💧

This mod adds optional power and water utilities for players looking for some added challenge in their gameplay.

This is a script mod that can be placed in your Packages folder. It was built and tested on 1.69 but should work fine on 1.67.

New Objects

Power Box

- Price: §0 - Category: Misc. Electronics/Misc. Appliances - Includes 3 original swatches + 1 recolorable option (3 channels) - Poly Count: 274

Water Pipes

- Price: §0 - Category: Misc. Plumbing - Includes 3 original swatches + 1 recolorable option (3 channels) - Poly Count: 1065

Utilities

The Power Box controls power and the Water Pipes control water (self explanatory :p). Both utility objects are free in buy mode in the Misc. Electronics tab and Misc. Plumbing tab, respectively.

Once placed down on your lot, you can enable one or both utilities. When the utilities are enabled, power and/or water will be cut off to certain objects on your lot until you "Turn On" the Power Box and/or Water Pipes.

While the utilities are on, your sims will be charged between §1 - §3 simoleons for every 10 minutes they use an object that requires a utility, with the charge varying based on the size of the object. The total cost will be added to your next household bill.

If you want to opt out of the utilities system, just use the “Disable Power Utility” and “Disable Water Utility” interactions available on the utility objects.

The utilities system only applies to the active household.

A full list of all of the objects affected by the Power Box and Water Pipes utilities and their usage costs can be found on the mod download page.

Utility Costs and Usage

To check how much you've spent on utilities during the current billing cycle (between when you pay your bills and the next bill payment), click on the "Check Utility Usage" interaction on either utility.

To see your full utilities breakdown, use the new "Check Utility Costs" interaction on the computer.

Also included in the full utilities breakdown is a Green Energy Rebate total.

This total calculates how much money a lot saves by using the Solar Panels and Wind Turbines from the Sims 3 Store and factors that into the total utilities cost.

The full utilities breakdown also shows up when your sim pays their bills.

Lack of Funds

If your household funds fall below the usage cost of a utility, that utility will be shut off and cannot be turned back on until your funds are sufficient.

Bill Delinquency

If you’re late on paying your bills, your utilities will get shut off. Both utilities will be shut off when your bills are two days old.

Tuning

All of the tunable values can be found on the mod download page under the header “Tuning”.

Script Namespace

If you want to turn another object into a power or water utility, open your desired object in s3pe and replace the current script name with the following:

Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Twinsimming.Utilities.PowerBox

Sims3.Gameplay.Objects.Twinsimming.Utilities.Water Pipes

Conflicts & Known Issues

These are new scripted objects so there shouldn’t be any conflicts.
