Happy 20th Birthday To Me

Happy 20th Anniversary for the Sims 2

Also Tycho’s birthday!!

Toddler Bowls by Color Traits

One color trait mod more for the special day 🎁

This mod makes the high chair toddler bowls appear in the toddler's favorite color. If the toddler has multiple favorite colors, it's randomized between the first three in the inventory. If the toddler doesn't have a favorite color, the bowl appears in a random color.

I also replaced the bowl mesh with a new, smoother version.

Known feature: when a sim fetches a bowl from a fridge, the bowl will only update to the correct color when the sim closes the fridge.

Download (SFS) (alternate)

⚠️ Trait Globals by @picknmixsims are required.

Is compatible (and recommended to use) with the accessible toddler high chairs mod by @lamare-sims, but my mod must load after it. This mod also works with these custom toddler foods by @vegan-kaktus and @jellymeduza, just either delete the related 'deliver' mod or make sure that my mod loads last.

🚨 This mod is likely not compatible with existing toddler food default replacements as they usually include bowl-related resources. Because of that, I've included compatible edits of vegan-kaktus' default food and bienchen83's fruit salad default. Make sure that the default of your choice loads after this mod, and only use one of the defaults at a time.

Update (18.9.2024): Changed it so that if the toddler doesn't have a favorite color, the bowl color will be random (instead of yellow). The color trait bowls are now used too when the bowl is given to a toddler as part of a group meal serving.

The new bowl mesh is 456 polys and the textures are 256x128. I used graphic resources from Freepik, nothing AI-generated.

Happy 20th The Sims 2 Birthday to Us! 🎉

[deedee-sims]

Happy 20th birthday Sims 2! 🥳

For this event, I made a bunch of clothing addons! (or more like, edited other simmers' addons and repo'd them lol)

Lovelace's Trapping Tucked Tanktop

Fixed some stuff on these meshes and added an EM version too. Repo'd to the FT Comfy outfit, so Free Time EP is required!

Download - Alternate

Amaryll's Mosaik Top

Repo'd this and Trapping's age conversions to the H&M Dress Mosaic. H&M SP is required!

Download - Alternate

Amaryll's 70s Top

Repo'd this and Trapping's age conversions to the H&M Seventies Dress. H&M SP is required!

Download - Alternate

@letomills M2F Parka

These already had maxis-y recolors, but they weren't repo'd to the game files, so I did that. I had to remove the gloves, though. Make sure you check out the other colors too, because they're cool! Seasons EP is required!

Download - Alternate

Skell's FantasyRogue Separated TSS Shirt

These also had maxis-y recolors, but weren't repo'd. Fixed some stuff on the meshes and added an EF version. Repo'd to the TSS Graphic Tee outfit, so the Teen Style SP is required!

Download - Alternate

Well, that's all! I hope everyone is happy celebrating this awesome (and old-ass) game! 🎉

A Gift for the 20th Anniversary of The Sims 2

Well, this would normally be the part where I just uploaded a picture of what it is and a link to the download, but I decided to bring back me going on verbose tirades, if not for just a tiny bit This game has been in my life for very long time, 20 years huh, next year the game will legally be allowed to drink in all countries, xD So what did I decide to make to celebrate this special location, something related to Iconic things like the freezer bunny, llamas, cowplants? No, I decided to celebrate what could have been.

This is an early screenshot for The Sims 2 prior to release, for a while, we knew that at a point in development, jewelry was added to the game, only for it to be completely dropped before the game went gold.

What we can see in this screenshot, is what I suspect to be where you would be able to buy said jewelry in a community lot, this being one of the two pictures where you can see said displays (The other picture having slightly worse visibility of said displays)

I've always wanted to see these displays in full glory, but considering how much we've digged out of the game files already, nothing related to these displays remains in the game files

So, I decided to try my luck to recreate them

I knew coming into this project that they would never bee a 1 for 1 recreation (proportions might be wrong, can't really see how the jewelry in the displays looks like in detail), so I decided to at least recreate the overall shape of the stands and fill them with jewelry that ended up shipping with Boy Voyage, and a bit from the Prism Art Studio jewelry display as well for good measure. I am happy with my work, but feel free to try and fill the stands in your own way, that was decidedly my worse struggle with this, just give me credits.

and now without further ado! Download Here - Neocities

The Sims 2: 20th anniversary - Gigantic Baby Costume Updated

This thing is cursed, you say? How dare you.

Since I learned how to add face morphs to meshes, I thought to myself “what better way to celebrate this anniversary than updating this classic, this piece of Sims 2 history, this iconic masterpiece by bootsbrisket?” Of course all credits go to them!

Download here: SFS / GD

Please read all the details under the cut if you want to download this!

Here’s all the changes for my version of this costume, which basically makes it so it’s actually, in fact, a real giant baby, not a costume anymore lol:

-I split this into two pieces: the body, found in fullbody outfits, and the head, found in the custom hairs section. This makes it so you’ll see the baby head on the pie menu, instead of the Sim’s head that’s wearing it underneath.

-Both pieces are available for all categories, unisex and ages range from young adult to elder.

-Added all face morphs using the original toddler face as a reference.

-Replaced the bones assignments on the body, this time using the toddler diaper outfit as a reference. Now they’ll look smoother.

-The body outfit replaces the original cc by bootsbrisket, so delete the original one if you have it. The head is a new piece of cc hair. You’ll probably find the head at the top of your custom unnatural hairs catalog, and the body buried (no pun intended) all the way at the bottom of the outfits catalog, right before the maxis clothing, due to how old the original one is.

If you want to see this thing in motion, here’s this video capture I took of them rapping while testing 🔥

Known issues:

-Due to how the Blender plugin works for the Sims 2, I haven’t been able to avoid making the head look bright in CAS. This is a sorta common issue that’s easily fixable using Milkshape3D, but again, I could only use Blender for the head mesh. Luckily, there’s Lazyduchess Overly Bright CAS fix, which I totally recommend you use to avoid this minor annoyance.

-While the eyes are fully animated and open and close as they should, the direction they look at won’t be animated. Haven’t figured out a way to implement that into a custom mesh yet.

-When the baby head opens their mouth, the nose’s Sim underneath might clip a little bit inside the mouth. Not very noticeable, but if you want to avoid this, you can make the Sim with an invisible skin like this one by MDP.

-This is something the original mesh had too: due to the size of the giant baby, there might be some clipping with itself in certain animations. Nothing too bad though I think.

And last but not least, some small tips to set up this Giant Baby character:

When the Sim wearing this goes to the shower, they’ll change into their naked adult bodies, which might look pretty creepy. Fortunately, there’s a way to make this outfit showerproof: the Never Nude trait and mod by Hexagonal Bypiramid! Change all the Sim’s outfits to the baby body, most importantly their swimwear, and place the Never Nude trait on their inventory.

Same goes for job outfits. If you want this Giant Baby to follow their dreams and pursue their professional career, they might change into something else when they go to work. For this I recommend the Job Outfit Stopinator by episims. Same as the other one, install the mod and place the object in the Sim’s inventory to prevent them from changing into job outfits.

And voila! You now have a fully functional Giant Baby Sim!

Want more screenshots of this majestic baby? Here ya go:

… Why am I taking this weird thing so seriously, you ask? Well, why wouldn’t I? I may be a little too perfectionist, even for stuff like this 🤓

Anyway, happy birthday Sims 2! 20 years and still going like a champ 🎉

God I love this game.

If you find any issues, please let me know! I have absolute Splatoon brainrot right now playing the Grand Festival 😬

🎉 Happy 20th Birthday to The Sims 2! 🎉 (Poster obviously made by yours truly) Even though I only started playing The Sims 2 in July 2023, it quickly became one of my favorite games. I loved it so much that by the start of 2024, I tracked down and bought all the original copies of the expansions. Now, they sit proudly on my shelf, and even though I’m new to the game, there's this weird sense of nostalgia I feel every time I play. Maybe it’s the sound of the CD spinning in the drive or the unmistakable 2000s aesthetic of the furniture—it just hits differently. As far as gameplay mechanics go, The Sims 2 really stands out.

It blows my mind how The Sims 2 feels more realistic and polished in some ways than The Sims 4. The attention to detail, the depth in gameplay—it’s like they perfected the formula and then drifted away from it in later games. It’s a shame they moved away from that level of realism. The fact that The Sims 2 was the last game without all those microtransactions and endless DLCs is part of why it remains the best for so many fans. Each expansion was packed with meaningful content, not just small add-ons.

I really hope the magic of The Sims 2 influences the direction of future Sims games because it captured something special that newer versions haven’t quite matched.

Alienware PC Monique Hacked Computer

Happy 20th Birthday, Sims 2!!!

To celebrate this glorious day, I have turned the Alienware's "Everything but the Saucer" Gaming PC into a Monique's Hacked Computer.

Now if you are a dork like me, you really appreciate the animations in this game. The Alienware computer has some cool animations when it comes to playing games.

I am a newbie when it comes to modding, but I managed to keep the original animations!

Also the Alienware computer had some TRCNs so the BCONs have some labels that other modders may find useful for tuning computers.

Recently, Gummilutt updated the Monique computers' shop menu to be more dynamic so I used their version when modding the Alienware computer.

Also I recommend looking at this post from Renfree, they compiled a very nice list of computers that have been updated to Monique's Hacked Computers.

If you would like an updated Alienware computer that is updated for AL and is Monique Hacked, Download it from Simfileshare.

I want to say thank you to Gummilutt and Monique for making the code. This was a very interesting experience and I look forward to learning more about SimAntics.

Happy Birthday & 20th Anniversary The Sims 2!

[lottes-little-place]

Happy 20th birthday to The Sims 2! Thanks for the almost 20 years of fun you've brought me, as seen on these very, very old screenshots (from around 2006 I think?) of mine that I managed to save years ago of my old laptop.

I played that same neighborhood for years and lots of generations until it finally became too buggy and corrupted and decided to start over again. It became especially bad when I discovered custom content, but then again, who hasn't destroyed their neighborhood the first time around?😁

Happy Sims 2 day everyone!

Color Trait Accessories

In collab with awesome @pforestsims ✨

Watering Cans by Color Traits

Makes the watering cans that sims use for flowers and garden crops appear in their favorite color. If the sim has multiple favorite colors, the first one in the inventory rules the color. The watering can is green if the sim doesn't have a favorite color.

Two versions to choose from: the classic version replaces the can mesh, while the maxis match version uses the original one.

The classic version has an additive map so it looks the best with the Standard Material Edit by @crispsandkerosene but works fine without it too, the texture will only seem slightly flatter.

Download Watering Cans (SFS) (alternate)

⚠️ Trait Globals by @picknmixsims are required.

Both versions use 256x256 textures. These mods aren't compatible with other watering can replacements. Please check the standard material edit's post for up-to-date information about its shader conflicts.

Kicky Bags by Color Traits

Makes kicky bags appear in that sim's favorite color who initiates the game. If the sim has more than one favorite color, it's randomized between the first three in the inventory. The kicky bag is red if the sim doesn't have a favorite color.

Also replaces the kicky bag mesh so that it actually looks like a bag instead of a ball.

Download Kicky Bags (SFS) (alternate)

⚠️ Trait Globals are required.

The new mesh is 568 polys and the textures are 256x128. This mod isn't compatible with other kicky bag replacements.

Jumping Ropes by Color Traits

Makes jumping ropes appear in the sim's favorite color. If the sim has more than one favorite color, it's randomized between the first three in the inventory. The jumping rope is brown if the sim doesn't have a favorite color.

Download Jumping Ropes (SFS) (alternate)

⚠️ Trait Globals are required.

This mod conflicts with Cyjon's Jump Rope Fitness but includes the same fix, so you can delete Cyjon's mod. This mod is compatible with simler90's Slower Fitness Gain but only if mine loads after it.

Tiny 32x128 textures. This mod isn't compatible with other jumping rope replacements.

Happy 20th Birthday to The Sims 2 🎉
