Sunset skybox inspired by Genshin Impact

I drew most of the clouds myself, I hope you like it!

My blog was created just four days ago, but there is already so much activity on it! Thank you for your support, I hope to continue to delight you with content.

And also thank you @lowedeus for the great sky of totalitarianism. Your content inspires me

here are my successfully converted fishing boats, converted from ts2 to ts3

download - simfileshare .package and .sims3pack files

original by psychosim

what they look like without shaders

list of fishing boats I've converted:

irma - green hull, white wheelhouse diane - blue hull, pale yellow wheelhouse lilith - dark brown hull, red wheelhouse maude - entirely yellow mamie - brown hull, yellow wheelhouse kynda - yellow hull, white wheelhouse coral - entirely in teal (nameless in my files, sorry!)

notes:

the darker boats might look a bit pixelated (lilith with her dark red wheelhouse for example), but the white/pale wheelhouses all look pretty good.

the fishing boats might go invisible from far away on lots specifically, the ones i put down in caw are visible no matter the distance. to put them down on lots, turn on moveobjects and give them a small underwater mountain to sit on, so they don't turn into sunken fishing boats.

please let me know if you experience any other issues.

for some of the boats i wrote in fun facts about old sailor's superstitions in the description. they're old, but we certainly abide by these superstitious rules on my ship still. good thing i don't even know how to whistle.

No Sim's Sky Part 2 - 18 Retro Posters from No Man's Sky

Happy Sunday everyone! Today I'm sharing more retro-style posters from one of my other favorite games, No Man's Sky. Details and download under the cut! 🚀

Awhile ago I shared these No Man's Sky poster conversions, and since then they've added a lot of new designs to the game. There are 18 additional posters in this set, once again on Veranka’s 3t2 Back to Retro Poster mesh:

A numbered swatch is included so you can easily keep just what you like. I should have more of these to share soon-ish (there's a new expedition running currently, plus I haven't converted any of the landscape or square designs yet). I'll also have some more NMS-related content for TS2 to share soon! 👀

The mesh is not included; you’ll need to grab it from Veranka’s Pyszny16’s Back to Retro Conversion for these to work!

All the credit for these belongs to No Man’s Sky and Hello Games, I just slapped them on the mesh. :)

DOWNLOAD (SFS) Recolors are ~1MB 🚨 Mesh is not included! Get it ->here. 🚨

Lots of love, Spacey

So, bigoted asshole that he is, William beats the crap out of River.

I'm not sure if William is disgusted by Skye for having alien children, and happily at that, or if he feels sorry for him. Skye doesn't like either option. He loves Penny and Woody.

Okay, this should have been done in 2K17 by myself, but the real life says "no". Anyway, better late than never!

Thank you @polygonbeach for uploading this very important and useful edit!

First of all, I apologize to everyone who might have been suffer from the infamous Pink Soup flashing. I never have one in my game, I used that skies for years, and such a HQ skyboxes based on my own game experience. But the resolutions of the totalitarian skies' textures sometimes are actually quiet huge:

- 2048x2048 px for Gray, Rise, Latte, and Tower - 2048x512 px for ACII, Wind, Star, and Alfsi  - 4096x1024 px (!) for Day, Pink, and Night (only for lot-sky)

I have edited the original post to add info and a link. And I promise I’ll upload optimised lot skybox variants ASAP!

The reason why I prefered that size was pixelization. The maxis' skies use simple gradients, so it was not such a big problem, but detalised cloud textures requiered the higher resolution because of texel. I uses the original textures, converted from You Are Empty, Assassin's Creed, and the Sims 4 (the Alfsi ones) - the games from the late 00th-early 2010th, so I sure that 2048x is suits ok for TS2. (maybe the few 4k skies that I made in 2k17 as experimental recolors were excessively, I admit it).

So, variety is always good and it's good to have a choice. Thank you!

P.S. I confused but the polycont of skydome in your version is the same as original (1920 polys for the cross-skydome for example).

🌴Lowedeus' Neighbourhood Skies optimised (reduced texture sizes)🌴

(cleaning my desktop up and want to post this, sorry for the lame preview but i cba lol)

so this is an optimisation of those hood skies by lowedeus. if you encounter pink flashing, then these are for you! these skies are often listed in sims 2 starter packs and not many people realise how much of a toll it has on your game, being at 4k texture sizes. they are a staple for the game tho so thats why i optimised it

a general disclaimer is that if you use custom skies and horizon mods, they are one of the biggest offenders of pink flashing as those use HUGE texture sizes!!

all i did here was shrink the textures to some better sizes, like 1024x512 and 512x512 (the texture sizes here were different so thats why they're not the same)

it will overwrite the original files (these wont work with the others)

eta: these are not for simnopke's skies, but the originals are tagged above

another not eta: the original maxis sky is 512px only, that's what inspired me to do this as there's no reason why other textures can't be that size too
