#Sims 2 misc

[es-sims]

In the past, I have uploaded some pictures of my Medieval/Fantasy Sims 2 neighborhood onto this blog. I do plan on restarting Briar Glen someday (when I get my modern folder just right) so having both modern and medieval in the same area felt like it was clashing together. So, the solution is now you can view those pictures/the story here! Welcome to the village of Kynsbern!

https://www.tumblr.com/kynsbern

If you want to follow the story of the Kynsbern, follow the link! Currently it's in the last stages of rebuilding and the rounds will start once all family lines are linked, skills have been restored and townies have been brought into town.

Please note that this neighborhood will feature more blood, violence and death than Briar Glen does. It is a an extremely rural medieval/fantasy landscape, very much inspired by the Elder Scrolls. These sims have to survive off whatever they hunt/harvest/manage to snag from new villagers if they move into the village. It also has a ROS that can make life significantly harder for the villagers if they roll poorly.

Apologies

Well, I am sorry to say this but I did not expect how much I would dislike the way secondary blogs function. The blog itself works fine but I have had issues with the queue and I don't like how much I have to switch around/worry about using the wrong blog to post.

I decided to move the story to Pillowfort. I will keep the secondary blog up for a while but I will eventually delete it. I apologize for anyone who would prefer reading it here. It just really bothers me.

I do plan to post a link on my main blog when the story updates, like a lot of other Simblrs that have their stories off-site. Just not host it here anymore.

Cellphone Default: RECOLORABLE Moto Razr V3

💥💥‼️THIS IS FOR THE SIMS *2*‼️💥💥

This idea came on super suddenly, but I wanted it so much I kept trying at it until I got it. It wouldn't have been possible without @loonyjelly helping me create the recolorable default file, as my attempts had me crashing the game lol.

The mesh and base textures are the work of mohd14 on MTS.

All I did was edit the Motorola brand name, the screen/UI, and the letters on the numpad so that they would be in simlish. Mohd14 made 9 colors of the Motorola Razr V3, so those 9 are included, plus I set up a PSD file for easy recolors, so there's a 10th recolor included that I made (the red one).

In addition to the PSD, I've also included transparent PNGs of all 10 recolors. The transparent part is the wallpaper/background on the phone screens (front & back), so you can add in any picture you want with the little network/battery/UI symbols remaining where they are!

This is basically nothing, but I kept being annoyed by how specifically this beard in black didn't have a catalog entry. So I unhid it. Works with Sims 2 as well as the Stories games.

4T2 Hood Deco - Ski Lift Set

SUL SUL!

A request came in from @gold33 to convert these items from Snowy Escape for the Sims 2, so here they are! They have a night time version too that doesn't require any other mods or what not.

The End building takes its textures from the main building so you will need the Main building for the textures to work!

The thumbnails are funky, so if anyone knows how to fix I will update...

A Lot of Eyes and Stuff

Have some eyes! …lots of them! And a sclera. And a waterline. Look, it's a whole Thing.

As I explained in a previous post, the eyes currently in my game are kind of all over the place, but y'know, in case anyone else is interested...

The sclera is the result of poking at @virtualpeople's Solar sclera, mixing it with Tea Leaf's mswn + AlfredAskew sclera for some added animation-friendliness (primping faces for proof), then refining it a bit more. And then I stuck it on a bunch of eyes!

I created two new eye sets, and resclera'd some existing eyes I liked by other people. I only did the colours I personally wanted (not the full sets), and I reused the existing packages, so you can't keep these and the originals. The tooltips, filenames, and swatch images have all been updated.

New eye sets:

After Dawn (preview | swatch)

Marseilles (preview | swatch)

Resclera'd sets:

@curiousb - Box Set (preview | swatch)

@digisims2 - Falco (preview | swatch)

@entropy-sims - 4T2 Remussirion Connexin (preview | swatch; catchlight edited)

@esotheria-sims - Dragontamer (preview | swatch)

Jessi - Painting the Walls (preview | swatch)

@mouseyblue - Glossed (preview | swatch)

Nabila - Sound of Madness (preview | swatch)

Tea Leaf / @marzmud - Brick v2 (preview | swatch) and Swallowed in the Sea (preview | swatch)

Trapping / @linasims2 - Mouseyblue Glossed recolours (preview | swatch)

@whysim - 4T2 dangerouslyfreejellyfish Whisper (preview | swatch) and viiavi's recolours (preview | swatch)

All the eyes are geneticised and townified. The genetic values range from 1.0 to 3.0, with brown and dark blue being the most dominant and purple, pink, and orange being the most recessive. Swatches are all included, and in the same order as the file names. You know, for easy culling in case I kept too many purples or something.

Defaults are comprised of CuriousB's Box Set and Jessi's Painting the Walls (swatch).

And finally, a little extra thing because it kinda goes with the theme: an edit of @pooklet's Ephemera waterline edit. It's my favourite waterline for smoothing out that weird sharp slant, since it works for all skintones and doesn't obscure lower lash line makeup, but the inner corner kinda bugged me, so I made a tiny alpha edit. Here's a comparison if you want to see the difference.

I've also included a .png of the sclera, as well as a layerable overlay found in the blush bin (apologies in advance for the v terrifying swatch).

MP3 Player Default: RECOLORABLE iPod Nano

Back in the 2000s, I had an iPod Nano, and although there have been iPod defaults before, they were only the original model. Plus it wasn't recolorable. But now there's both things, together!

I'm not that great at file/mesh stuff, so I used Graverobber's default as a base since it was already recolorable. Then @annachibi helped by editing the mesh so that the screen fit the texture I wanted to use.

There's 2 recolorable parts: The iPod itself, and the screen.

(The swatches inside the .zip folder are labeled with filenames)

I guess I felt like being thorough with this, so I made every single color that was released for iPod Nano generations 2 through 5.

Generation 1 was skipped because it didn't come in any colors lol.

I skipped generations 6 & 7 because the last time I owned an iPod was before those existed :P

Some of the colors are very very similar to each other, especially the reds & pinks, but they were just different enough that I kept both.

Plus idk, maybe you prefer Gen 2 pink over Gen 3 pink (or vice versa), now you can choose either one :)

I've also included PSDs of both the iPod and the screen so you can easily create more colors. One thing to note however, is that the screen part is... Weird.

This seems to just be how the MP3 player functions as an object, but there's both a "lit" and "unlit" image for the screen. The thing is, it flips between these 2 images every few seconds, regardless of whether a sim is using it or it's just sitting on the floor.

Graverobber's default combined these 2 images into one texture file, so the "lit" and "unlit" images are next to each other, but that means they've both been squished. The screen is so tiny however that I don't think it makes that much of a difference.

For my screen recolors, I put an exact duplicate of the image on both the "lit" and "unlit" parts of the texture. It flips back & forth between the 2 so frequently I couldn't think of anything better to do with it.

If you use my PSD to recolor the screen, after you make your image, you'll have to shrink & squish it to fit on the actual screen texture. I thought it would be easier to make recolors if it hadn't been squished yet.

I really like the original easel paintings that come shipped with the game, but I am starting to get tired of them after almost like... 20 years, so I wanted to replace them with similar but different images. I used Neural Blender (Free Tier) to generate images based on descriptions of the paintings from the game.

These work just like other easel painting defaults. Put them in your Downloads folder to use them, take them out when you are tired of them. I split this into two files, where the Base Game file has the 12 regular paintings and the FreeTime file has only the 3 grilled cheese paintings. If you want to compare them, here’s the old and new paintings.
