Custom Lighting & Environment Mods For TS3

Custom Lighting & Environment Mods for TS3

@amphoraesims

asked me “What lighting mod do you use?”

So here is the complete list of all the lighting mods I’m currently playing with.

(the pictures above are completely unretouched - no Reshade

UranesiaLightingMod_NOGreenSunrise+DefaultWater+BrighterNight by Nilxis : it’s the main lighitng mod.

Wasset_EnchantedEnvironment_Seperated by Wasset ; it change the appearance of both the sun and the moon (plus adding them a beautiful “halo”), of the clouds, rainbow and stars, and few other features. The original link on his page is broken, so I just uploaded it HERE

Improved Environmental Shadows by Simsi45 ; I’m using just the DYNAMIC file (the shadows respond more accurately to the sun’s position, letting them stretch further towards the horizon).

Shadow Extender by Lazy Duchess: it increases the draw distance of shadows and in addition improves the look of map view by making trees and other miscellaneous deco cast shadows, when they previously did not.

Snow but Better by Lyralei: instead of the snow replacement of Wasset, I’m using this one, more detailled. The terrain snow textures are entirely redone; Frosty windows and glass now has more detailed frost on it; it fix that annoying and ugly “Grass” patches.; Icicles have a new texture; Roads got bumpier and more detailed.

Reworked & Impreved EA lights by Simsi45: it modifies the lite resource for almost all the lamps, making the game a little bit more atmospheric and visually appealing.

Shader Tweaks by Lazy Duchess: this is a set of improvements and fixes to some of the shaders. The color of rooms will now contribute to lighting on Sims. Outdoor Sims skin lighting was slightly “flattened” to make Sim faces look slightly better. Bloom has been reduced significantly.

4to3 Madlen Yasu Shoes

Elinore Jacket Conversion

♪ Original post here by @mossylane ♪ For teen, young adult, adult and elder females ♪ Four recolorable channels ♪ Three presets ♪ Polycount ~2.5K

Please note: I am not fully happy with the teen version. There is nothing wrong with it but the shape is a little too boxy on them, I should have made the jacket smaller in the shoulder area.

For everyone: Download

For teens: Download For adults: Download For elders: Download

I updated some of my default hair retextures, reduced the filesize of some of them and also uploaded them to SimFileShare as well. So I thought I just make a new post instead of updating a gazillion different posts.

There are also defaults for 70s, 80s & 90s SP, Fast Lane SP and Movie SP now too as it seems I never uploaded these before!

❤️ Now for the goodies: ❤️

Basegame:

Female

Male

Child / Toddler

EPs:

World Adventure

Ambitions

Late Night

Generations

Pets

Showtime

Supernatural

Seasons

University Life

Island Paradise

Into The Future

SPs:

Hight-End Loft

Fast Lane

Outdoor Living

Town Life

Master Suite

70s, 80s & 90s

Movie

Worlds:

Aurora Skies

Barnacle Bay

Dragon Valley

Midnight Hollow

Monte Vista

Roaring Heights

Sunlit Tides

Remember, these are DEFAULT REPLACEMENTS! You may only have ONE default replacement in your game! These do NOT include the hairs itself! You NEED the appropriate EP, SP or World for these or else it wouldn’t make any sense for you to download them!

I included the CASP file in the World-Hair-Retextures and disabled the elder-version in all categories (it won’t even show up in CAS) and proberly enabled the adult version for Teen-Elder. Also enabled all clothing categories where they were not so originally.

In case that SimFileShare doesn’t work for you, here is the link to my folder on MEGA where you pick the ones you want or just download the whole folder, your choice. MEGA BACKUP

HAPPY SIMMING!
