EA's leaves are kind of dull, and I personally think TNW's are too bright, so here's my spin on a leaf default + a new mod :-D

Leaf variety mod

There are 4 different leaf textures in the game files but only one is used. I talked with @shastakiss some years(?) ago and she mentioned an unfinished mod Neder started working on to make the leaf use different textures. Unfortunately, Neder couldn't get it to work. Shasta kindly sent me said mod and I handed it over to @lamare-sims last year who of course managed to fix it (thank you so much once again, you're a legend!!)

Note #1: worth mentioning, this mod will only affect leaves that spawn after you've installed the mod! the same goes for my mesh fix included in the default below. Note #2: if you already have this mod in you dl-folder, delete that file and use the one from this download if you're planning on using my default (otherwise my uv-map and texture edit will not work).

Defaults

Replaces all 4 leaf-textures with new, more colorful and less blocky textures. I also edited the "effect"-textures of single leaves (the ones falling from the trees). This default can be used without the mod mentioned above, but then only the "original" texture will be used - see second image.

The leaves that spawns under the tree (the one sims can't rake), it was impossible to make it look good with any of the four textures, so I re-mapped it and gave it it's own texture (256x256px). There's also an optional default for the rake included, I edited a tiny error in the mesh and gave it a texture makeover. I made a separate LOD90-default for the leafpile (meaning: the mesh in neighborhood view) and instead of replacing the textures I repo'd them, meaning that the LOD90 default works with any leaf texture default you might use (it will only be showing one texture in neighborhood view).

Texture sizes are all the same as EA's:

Leaves: 512x512px x4 (my default +1: 256x256px)

Rake: 128x256px

Leaf effects: 32x32px x3

Edited leaf-related cc

I edited Sophie-David's leaf pile pet bed (the mesh) and repo'd it to leafpile_txtr, meaning the mesh will now pick up my default (or any other default you might have for leafpile_txtr, and if none - EA's original texture). The mesh now needs seasons + pets, since it's repo'd. Their recolors are not included, so be sure to download them from the link above if you want them and replace their mesh with mine!

I also edited Shakeshaft's leaf cover mesh (warning T$R) , I repo'd it to one of the leaf textures and made recolors - also repo'd - to the rest of the textures. This mesh and recs now need seasons, this also means that the mesh and recolors* can be used without my default.

*with the exception of rc4, which is repo'd to my custom leaf texture, found in my leaf default.

Recommended mod

I recommend simler90's Gardening Rake Leaf Pile Mod or jfade's leaf pile fix (I have no idea what the difference between those two mods are, they edit the same thing so choose one of them).

Nothing in this download is dependent on each other* so feel free to pick and choose what you want :-) remember you can only have one default for the leaves, meaning that if you have any other default (1, 2, 3, 4) or Shakeshaft's/Sophie-David's original meshes, make sure you remove them before installing my files. Everything has been compressed to reduce file size, as usual. Do let me know if I messed up anywhere!

*with the exception of rc4, see above.

genuinely i love being trans sm it's such an important apart of my silly identity and i would not trade being trans for the world. it's such a lovely time when you have the proper people to support you fr(literally the only things that makes it unfun is dysphoria and transphobia and a lot of the time the dysphoria is caused by society and transphobia anyway💀)

Random question, but does Apollo have any sobriety coins?

I did very, very vague research, and apparently, it's usually only given to people who go to AA meetings, but Apollo did go to rehab, so I'm just wondering if he had any

Although idk if rehabs even give out sobriety coins so like 😭😭

Also if he does have any, I'd like to think that he def has them on display somewhere in his room LMAO

this is literally such a good question - i vaguely knew about them, but i hadn't even considered it for apollo! i just did a little bit of research and honestly, i think he def does!

i think that he got one back when he first went to rehab/then left, but then he continued to do a mini celebration for himself, because it wasn't something that he really shared with his kids/wanted to share with his kids. i think that you can actually buy them online, but they're not like official or anything, and so now i'm in between whether he'll just buy himself a chip for the number of years he's been sober just because he likes having the physical reminder (plus i hc he's a bit of a collector and a lot of a hoarder, if you could tell from my description of his house and all of the posters/awards - he had to do a lot of calls to make sure to get all of his awards and everything out of his father's studios and houses and whatnot bc he wanted them all in his own place! it sounded a bit egoistic when you would think of all the things with his name on it around the house, but that's really just because he'd rather have it in his own home collecting dust rather than collecting dust on one of his father's shelves)

OR i also think it woudl be very sweet if latricia made, like, self-decorated coins or something to celebrate the anniversary every year after she got a random call two years after being sober where apollo was just quiet for a few moments and then told her, because he didn't really have anyone else to tell, and so he just called her out of the blue bc she was the only one he could think to tell this too - and he wanted to tell someone about it, because otherwise it wouldn't really feel real to him plus he was pretty proud of it

and then in the mail like a week later comes a little coin that with 2 on it, clearly handmade by taking like a poker chip or something and just painting it, and apollo like puts it on his nightstand, eventually joined by future coins year after year because lavinia doesn't forget it

so they're not REALLY sobriety coins in the sense that they're from A.A. / official, (even though he does have one of those), but they're more like little mementos and just reminders that it does matter! and he should be proud of himself, and he cares more about them than any of the other trophies scattered around his house

(can you tell i love latricia and apollo friendship like i just think they're platonic soulmates in this au tbh. i think naomi and apollo could have also been great like that if they had a chance, but their relationship was always a bit more complicated and apollo would always be a bit in love with her, and then darren is- well, he's darren. so latricia and apollo <33)

THANK YOU FOR THE ASK THIS IS NOW CANON TO ME

Once again begging gen z to learn and understand hyperbole and generalisation for comedic and satirical purposes. Please.

I think I just have a hard time understanding that loveless is at the same time SERIOUS and a shotacon manga like it's quite literally both at the same time. and I am a fan of the "it depends" line of thinking but due to my nature I do struggle with that at times... so anyway I'm trying to be less crazy about everything and just have fun + enjoy loveless. :) for the first time

Me pondering: kids are capable of going through and understanding complex problems and their feelings should be taken seriously when it counts.

Me practically: who are all these annoying fucking kids in the milgram fandom and why are they posting the worst takes and most irrelevant bullshit I've ever seen ever???

I think these are valid to coexist.
