PXL'S Anatomy of Screenshots
Tumblr media
So you want to take better screenshots? There are multiple factors to consider, and if you don't enjoy tweaking reshade settings for every image, my ultimate method may not be for you. That being said, there are tips and resources in this guide that are applicable to everyone and you can select to explore those that are useful to your specific situation.
Disclaimer: I am not claiming to be an expert, nor am I offering to provide troubleshooting on an individual basis. This is a general guide and if you are unfamiliar with any of the concepts, please use the mighty power of the internet to find tutorials. I promise everything that I have learned over the years has been published and documented a thousand times better than I ever could.
There are five factors to address:
Your computer's inherent capabilities
The game's limitations
The mods you're using
Reshade
Post Processing
Graphics Card Settings & Drivers:
Become familiar with your graphic options. If you don't have a dedicated graphics card (i.e. a desktop or gaming laptop, these features may be unavailable and you should skip.)
I have an AMD Radeon Pro card which is designed for workstation level systems. It's overkill for sims, but useful for 3D rendering and modelling work. I have changed the following settings for DirectX 9 applications:
anti-aliasing - enhance application settings
anisotropic filtering - enabled
anisotropic filtering level - 16x
texture filtering quality - high
surface format optimization - high
Consider overclocking your graphics card to unlock it's full potential. DO NOT pursue this venture unless you are ok with the risk of burning out your card prematurely. I use at present, overclocked Bootcamp Drivers from BootcampDrivers.com obviously, if you're not playing on an intel based mac through Bootcamp, this is irrelevant to you.
None of these settings are useful until you address the default games limitations, which leads nicely into the next factor.
Addressing The Sims 4's Graphic Limitations:
Everyone should be familiar at this point with lighting mods, 4k, textures, disabling ssao, etc. but, I'm still going to spell it out. None of this is new information and has been covered many a time by various players ad nauseum.
remove ugly blue toned lighting in the world by choosing a lighting mod from @softerhaze here
overhaul your graphics.cfg file (i use a custom blend with features specific to me), however @simp4sims has done a ridiculous amount of work in providing a simple to install file that can be found here - read through their tutorials!! they have provided an excellent oversight of exactly what this does and why it matters
improve the indoor lighting for your sims - previously i used @luumia's no blu, no glo - recently i switched to @northernsiberiawinds better in game lighting mod here, though i have tweaked some of the settings to suit my own personal preferences
i don't use the HQ mod, i don't find that it makes enough difference for the amount of effort it requires to convert CAS CC
It should go without saying, but tweaking your graphics config file is absolutely useless if you can't play TS4 at it's maximum in game graphic settings!
The Mods You're Using:
Now that you've put in all this work into getting the game ready to make use of quality mods where do you start? Well, the CC you install matters. Whatever your preference, whether it be maxis-match, alpha or somewhere in between, priority should be given to using items textured in 2k or 4k resolutions, and specific attention should be paid to using wall and flooring textures with bump maps, and or high quality resolutions (this is important later for reshade if you intend to learn about ray tracing).
I will separately post a guide to creators with crispy textures because that is it's own novel.
Reshade:
Phew. Still with me?
There are many many many reshade presets out there, most are alike, but none employ ray tracing, and that is because a) it needs to be manually adjusted for every screenshot, b) they are paid shaders, and c) this requires advanced knowledge of reshade and a decent enough graphics set up that won't overheat - games running native ray tracing recommend a minimum VRAM of 8GB (please note RAM and VRAM are not the same) - i therefore do not recommend pursuing this option if your system does not meet those minimum requirements.
Tumblr media
Start here to understand what ray tracing for reshade is. In my opinion, the shaders are well worth the price of $5 for the amount of work that has gone into creating them by the talented Pascal Gilcher. That link is a comprehensive starting point into expanding your knowledge of reshade and it's capabilities.
I have always created my own reshade presets from scratch, and while the core colorization settings I utilize remain largely the same, using ray tracing and re-light means every screenshot needs to be manually adjusted (lights repositioned, bounce and AO factors adjusted, etc) before being captured. @pictureamoebae just published a very timely post discussing the re-light shader and you can read it here.
Post Processing
Reshade does 99.99% of the work that traditionally would be accomplished in a photo editing software like photoshop. Occasionally, I need to adjust exposure manually, add depth of field manually, or color correct. Beyond that I use it to scale images to fit the resolution and file size limits of various platforms. Conceptually this reduces the amount of uncontrolled loss encountered when platforms like tumblr auto compress files that are too large. In reality, tumblr still makes images crappy compared to how they appear in my file folder.
optimize your images for various social media platforms using this guide
fix exposure or colorization issues using a software like photoshop
I hope that this gives you a starting point into expanding your methodologies. My process is continuously evolving and I find this aspect of the game most entertaining. For others who don't enjoy this process, it's probably not worth it!
Thanks for reading ❤ PXL

Stardew Valley Pixel Art Floors/Walls/Deco (TS4) Download Below
Aside from a couple most of these pics are just the demo pics showing what's included, more CC in game pics can be seen here
🍄Misc Large Decals
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In order: Junimo huts + large Junimos, Holdiay Decor and "sky decor", furniture items, rarecrows, plants.
🍄Wall Decals Paintings and Banners:
Tumblr media
🍄Wall Decals Misc small:
Adventure stuff and boots, small junimos, random furniture items slime monsters different expressions
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
🍄Wall decals Gems and Minerals:
I didn't do them all, just some that I liked.
Tumblr media
🍄Wall decals farm animals

🍄Wall decals Fishing
Again just the fish I wanted to do, not all:
Tumblr media
🍄Wall decals Harvestables, Crops, Products:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here's a random in game pic (see more in links provided at top or bottom of post), all decals show through glass too!
🍄Stardew Valley Villagers (yes the bear is a villager I refuse to accept otherwise) portraits
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The portraits are the only item with actual dimension, I recoloured a base game framed painting, so these are not flat like the rest of decals. (they look a bit orange but that's just my mood lighting)
🍄Walls and Flooring (indoor and outdoor flooring)
I did all the ones you see here:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
For the floors I made a large and small version of all:
Tumblr media
🍄You can see more CC in game pics in my wip post here
Are you sick and tired of those smooth graphics from Sims 4? Do you wish you could replace those pesky curves and detailed HQ textures with nothing but square pixel heaven and flat colours? To be finally rid of all those 3D bump/light effects and replace them with volume-less cardboard cut-out illusion and imagination? Do you want your build/game to look just like Stardew Valley? Or do you simply think that if the sims team are gonna give us low poly and low quality meshes and textures might as well do it properly? Fear not! The solution is here! I made a new Stardew Valley save (why I need yet another save that I'll never have time to complete I don't know) and tried my first build, the recreation of my current (and only) farm. It was ok but I got frustrated at how "Sims 4" everything looked, and checked for stardew valley cc conversions, art, decor but only find people making it using sims 4 stuff, which is probably the most logical thing but not for me! So I made this as there are plenty of game assets from Stardew Valley available online and however tedious and time-consuming resizing the tiniest of pixel art images is to fit Sims 4, it is fairly easy and doable, so I did it. I did skip some items in each category as there are way too many and just did the ones I like, sorry if there was one I didn't include. Also there are some floors in the game or icons that I couldn't find. Some Junimos were taken from the internet but most are individually resized game assets. INFO: all decals in wall deco, all are zero simoleons, and the portraits are 10. You can find my stuff typing "moonbiscuitsims" or "stardew". All have correct colour filter tags and removed "talk to object (insane)" and "can be struck by lightning" (these things annoy me or could cause more distractions for my sims, sorry if you like this though I'm sure there are plenty of objects to talk to/ lightning strikable objects). I don't know if this has an effect. All the portraits are just tagged as brown. All are resizable to your liking. Forgot to mention the floors i think are in wood flooring and outdoor flooring; and I think the walls in panelling. REQUIREMENTS: Nada, nothing. Just base game. (though I did accidentally make one item from a get to work decal by mistake, I remade it to fix it and I've play tested everything, but let me know if something doesn't show up.
PLEASE READ AND RESPECT MY TOU AND DO NOT ❌❌❌: - ❌ Reupload - ❌ Include in sim downloads - ❌ Put behind paywall of any kind no matter what. - ❌ Claim as yours. If you wanna use the texture files to make other different original content that is fine as long as it is different from mine and NO PAYWALLS and no reuploading my stuff. The images are from Stardew Valley, but I spent ages editing every single one to fit the sims, and this took me days to do. All my stuff is free. I don't care about conversions to ts2 or ts3 but NO PAYWALLS and please tag and credit me. If used for screenshots please tag me too, I'd love to see <3 🍄DOWNLOAD (including a pick and choose or a merged file with everything, don't get both) 🍄ALT DOWNLOAD PATREON Enjoy! Happy Simming/Farming

The Sims 4: Official Laundry List (July 9th, 2024)
Earlier this week, EA released a new Laundry List for the next game update for The Sims 4. If you don’t know the term, that’s a list of bug fixes that will come on a patch.
Laundry lists are usually shared one week before the update comes to both versions of the game (PC/Mac and consoles), but the release date has not been confirmed.
It is also unknown if the patch will bring anything new to the game. Maybe this is when players will get one of the two free updates promised on the latest roadmap. And it may or may not included the long promised new hairstyle made in collaboration with Dark and Lovely.
Read the full blog post, with all the bug fixes, below.
Sul Sul Simmers!
Welcome to this month’s Laundry List, where we share the top community concerns we’re currently investigating and aim to resolve in an upcoming patch.
To stay on track with the goal stated in our previous Laundry List, the team continues to dedicate their time to prioritizing more fixes to include in each update.  This is our second release in this series, with the next scheduled for roughly 2 months from now. This time, we are tackling over 60 issues to make for a better gameplay experience.
As always, the list below is just a top list, and there are more topics that we saw reported by players that are not listed here but may still be in the process of being solved. Some topics can be tricky and require an extended investigation on our end, so even though we are actively reviewing, it’s not a guarantee that we’ll have an immediate fix for it in the upcoming patch.
This list is primarily generated by leveraging the player reports via Answers HQ. Thank you to everyone who continues to help our work of improving the user experience via their reports.
Here’s the list of community concerns we’re investigating for the game update this month:
Console :

Nocturnal Midset #1 (Featuring my 7 personas)
Nighttime. Body rest mode activated. Commence Sleeping in 3...2...1...
Eren (F/30yrs.): Okay our girl is down for the night again. Let's go over her stats for the day. Shall we everyone?
Christina (F/25yrs.): Alright I'm first. Today was my day to be in primary charge. So obviously she took it easy today. Thank Bast, it's not a school day! She would have been wiped out otherwise. Anyways mostly was spent playing The Sims 4 and a little bit of other crap too. The rest can fill you in for that stuff.
Eren: Thank you Chris. Now who's next?
Daniella (F/4billion+/25yrs): Our girl lost her cool at her game crashing and all her stuff in her library disappearing. I had her throw a pillow at a wall and scream. Don't worry, she didn't break anything [mutters] to my disappointment she didn't flip out worse. I gotta fix that later.
Eren: O...Kay...Who's next?
Ivory (F/25): That would be me. Our girl made dinner. A simple meal of spaghetti and meat chunks. She also made some fresh Texas toast to go with it. I also had her clean out her emails and reorganize her files. Plus she posted on Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter and watched a few TikToks and YouTube videos.
Eren: And that's the reason you're the smart one of us! Who else?
Vivianna [Ivy] (F/14yrs.) I really didn't have much to do aside from watching her vitals and making sure she did her bathroom business today a.k.a. BORING SH*T!! I was more productive in my realm than out here in HQ! By Apollo's bright shield! Why is our girl getting older!? She never has time for FUN anymore! The only reason she did the game today was because I put it in the docket for Chris's tasks! I could have done it myself but alas, duties called me back home for a while this afternoon.
Ivory: Oh? And what duties would those be?
Ivy: [blush]...you know...marital duties...and you won't be getting anything else from that!
Eren: Alright, okay. Before the young one has an aneurysm, Big voice! Anything to add?
Big Voice (my actual voice): Nope! Our girl had a small headache earlier this evening and she took medication for that. I told Chrissy to put on some calming music for our girl to sleep too. Oh! There was one more thing. HE is back and I'm not sure what to do.
{collective gasps of shock}
Eren: What you mean--
Jackie (M/26yrs): I'M BAAAACK B*TCHES!!!! Did ya miss me? Because I've missed you! *Jumps onto Ivy's desk* My oh My! How things have changed in 20 years of isolation. *Gasps* is that YOU little Vi? My goodness you've grown up! How old are you now? 18? 21?
Ivy: [bristles in fear] I'm almost 14 and 1/2. Hello Jackie.
Daniella: [angrily shouts] WHAT ARE YOU DOING BACK HERE!?! I THOUGHT ISOLATION MEANT A PERMANENT PURGE!! Just like with our girl's imaginary "friends"!!
Jackie: Well ya got me!? One minute I'm chilling in my isolation chamber and suddenly it cracks and breaks open. I'm free for the first time since my girl was almost 6! Woo-Hoo!! *Dances a jig*
Ivory: I'm sorry, approximately HOW long ago did it break?
Jackie: Oh in July...
Christina: JULY!?! That was 10 months ago! Why would it--
Eren: Oh my creator...it...it couldn't have...
Ivory: What? Spit it out witch!
Eren: Remember when host body got news she lost her dad in a car accident?
{they all nod}
Eren: That is probably when his chamber broke. Our girl's emotional state was almost zombie like for 3 weeks. Then came the actual insanity! We blamed Dani for that!
Dani: and I'm STILL pissed about that!
Ivory: Now we know...
Jackie: Yeppers! That's what would do it! A strong enough out of control situation would bring me back! Just like when host body's aunt and sister moved out. That's when I was sealed away. Host body became miserable and could barely keep up with home life! Why I bet the passing thought of running away came up A LOT in meetings. Now. What have I missed?

take a trip into my garden
i’ve got so much to show ya
the fountains and the waters
are begging just to know ya
so basically troye sivan got me out of a massive inspiration rut by being absolutely empowering, if ever i had a muse it would be him. this was both a result of watching bloom too much, finding a shirt i liked too much on lana’s blog, and finally getting reshade to work (although this is still heavily edited).
i chose narvi for this edit rather than making a random sim because i feel very strongly that narvi is a passionate advocate for expression of the self, and a firm believer in the idea that there is a sort of healing quality in allowing yourself moments of self-indulgence, regardless of expectations that have been put on you.
that being said, in he is, narvi will not always be in a position where he has the freedom to be unabashedly himself. i thought i owed him this freedom, because self-preservation is not always suppressing yourself to save your own ass. sometimes it is letting yourself fly to save your mind. i myself am still learning the importance of this, but then again, most of us are!
deepness aside, (if you cant tell this was a very emotional edit for me LMFAO) my bff thought this was james charles so now i guess narv looks like james charles and johnny weir, do any else of you have suggestions??? if so speak now or forever hold your peace omfg 
p.s. i have versions of this shoot that spoil the entirety of whatever i’m doing with the thorsons. bet you wish i had posted those. p.p.s - i almost did.

EA Confirms New The Sims 4 Patch on February 27th, Shares “Laundry List”
On Wednesday, February 14th, EA shared a new Laundry List with bug fixes coming to The Sims 4, and also confirms the date for the next patch: February 27th.
These lists are usually shared within a week from a game update, so it’s uncommon that we get confirmation, for the bug fixes and also for the date of the patch, this early. Advertisement
Read their blog post below.
Sul Sul Simmers!
Welcome to this month’s Laundry List, where we share a list of the top community concerns we’re currently investigating and hope to resolve in an upcoming patch.
This is only a list of topics from AnswersHQ with upcoming fixes; there are more topics reported by players that are not listed and are still being worked on. This list is based on reports by players on Answers HQ and helps us continue our work on improving the user experience on a regular basis.
Please note that some topics can be tricky and may require an extended investigation on our end, so even though we are actively reviewing, it’s not a guarantee that we’ll have an immediate fix in the upcoming patch.
Here’s the list of the community concerns we’re investigating and aiming to resolve in the next patch:
Holidays Only Appearing for Three Sims in Household
[CONSOLE] Unable to toggle wall tile placement type between room and single when using controller
Customer Service NPCs Don’t Spawn on Community Lots
Stuck on Residential Rental Lot type
Sims eating prepped ingredients as ‘eat leftovers’
Waffle Maker and Pizza Oven cause constant fires

Hoodie Makes Sim’s Eyes Bigger
Thank you for all your patience and valuable help in reporting! Please continue sharing with us any issues you’re experiencing on Answers HQ.
We’ll continue to check in, and together we can make this game the best it can be.
Happy Simming!
