Recolors for Helier set from Mansion & Garden EP. Four basic shades plus glowing recolors

❗ glowing recolors require Extended Standard Material Shader by @crispsandkerosene - without it the texture glow effect will not be visible!

Helier's Curves [M&G] - recolors & add-on

& 'Arc Deco Entranceway Accent' recolors

Download: MEGA | BOX | SFS

Glowing recolors are all repo'ed to basic shades and to additive texture packs (make sure you don't remove those by accident).

*This is for The Sims 2

Enjoy!

I thought I was done recolouring and then I remembered there's that Arc Entranceway canopy thing - I've never used it in my game so I didn't know it had two subsets.. Glowing recolors are only for the edges cuz otherwise it wouldn't make sense - and it doesn't look as good as I'd like it to.

There's also a Helier archway, I didn't feel like recolouring it at this point but might do that in the future.

As I mentioned above, glowing recolors are repoed. "Additive texture pack" packages contain additive maps used for neons so there's no texture redundancy. You can tweak or replace each additive map -(I've included texture resources) the change will affect all neon recolors in the set, that are linked to the edited texture.

If you'd like to replace glowing texture in specific recolor file, you open TXMT settings and edit texture name in stdMatAdditiveTextureName line, plus the same texture name in File List tab. Don't forget to commit changes.

Posh Club Stuff

New meshes, add-ons, recolors and default replacements

Download: SFS | BOX

Round table is also included but please note it's a purely decorative object.

Glowing H&M stair and fence replacements require Extended Standard Material shader by @crispsandkerosene /work without it, but will not look like they do in the preview/.

Floors featured in the pic: VTMR tiles (carpet 5 and 6) converted by @freezerbunny-sims2 , wallpaper is 'Fiery red' by Donnha, wood panelling is from Bon Voyage, I think.

*This is for The Sims 2

So this lot is more of a photoshoot set than actual building and I can't share that mess - but here's most of the CC / defaults I used in there. Also, please note this Reshade preset affected the colors.

Plant in the main pic is Bioshock 2 conversion by Misty-fluff anyone has a link? I've included it - it's actually my mesh edit with pot removed. Original conversion /with the pot/ is here.

Eventually I didn't place any grand staircase in my club - but I was going to. As my internet was down at the time, I made my own mesh edits without the stupid middle raillings. Mesh defaults for 'Sweeping Success Staircase' and deco staircase aka 'A Stair to Remember' (both are from M&G EP) - are included.

Defaults for these already exist - like this one by HL - but please note I edited Sweeping Staircase's railing posts and steps a bit. I also edited UVs, so my replacement does not require texture edits and is compatible with recolors for original.

There's also this default by simblrnova, which includes GMND fix, so the side panels change colors along the main subset (I think they also edited UVs).

You can use my texture replacement for 'Stair to remember' along any mesh default for these stairs. Please note I didn't replace side panel textures.

Matching texture / TXMT replacement for the deco fence 'A Fence to keep in mind' is included in a separate file. Obviously it will clash with other defaults for this fence, like "SN-RailingtoKeepinMind-TXMTFix" by Simblrnova.

/I have no idea if middle stair railing is used for sliding animations - if it is, anims will obviously look awkward. /

I gave Velvet Rope Fence posts a little makeover - you can choose between shape edit, or shape edit plus TXMT edit.

And in case you wonder about the microphone - it's a mesh replacement for "Small superstar microphone" (from Apartment Life, maybe?) with amplifier removed

Microphone dr is not included, I uploaded it HERE (SFS)

Steel support beam requires Apartment Life EP. It looks best in black so I recommend these pipe recolors too.

Round banquet table is a decorative object

It will pull textures from Roundabout table, which could be from Celebrations SP (?) . You can use some invisible 1x1 table to make it somewhat functional /I included invisible table recolor for the 'groovy' square table from UNI EP/.

Decor bits on the table are a part of the mesh, if you don't like it, you can open GMDC in simPe and delete unwanted subsets /FYI those plates are lower than default Eaxis plate/.

I've included small mineral water bottle that didn't make it into my bar decor set as it should.

Crystal chandelier aka Cascades chandelier is a TS2 preorder item, I've included the mesh /with edited texture, black 'circle' removed from the canopy top/. The other one is from M&G /I think?/.

Fancy planter is an add on for 'Off the hook egg" (maybe OFB?), has one placement slot. Recolors (2 in one) included - recolor says red and black, but I changed it to gold last minute.

2-story spotlighter was cloned from an ordinary ceiling lamp, and is not animated - 'light beams' are not recolourable, and are always on. It requires Night Life - I also included recolor for the other NL spotlighter, as I discovered later these are not texture-linked.

2-story curtains are an add-on for 4t2 Wondymoon Cycnus curtains converted by @deatherella - s4 original is here (T$R) - I included the required mesh and my recolors - red and dark purple.

Plumbob sign is based on a symbol from TS2 litigator podium (a career reward).

Stuff I'll share some other time: 2-story light cable extension, table lamps /also, chairs - maybe/.

And if you're up for some DYI, here's the texture I used for the club ceiling. This is based on Adele's sectioned wood floor texture, made dark brown.

Ladies and gentlemen, Pink Flashing in the Legacy Edition!

Maxis Match TS2 CD Sales Rack

Hello, happy 2023!

Today I have a non-3t2 gift: a Maxis-match CD store set for your neighborhood music shop. I have three objects for you: a standing CD floor rack, a hanging wall rack, and a section nameplate. Plus recolors!

I was feeling nostalgic for the mid-aughts when CDs ruled the world, and in particular I was remembering the music section of the deceased Borders bookstore chain (RIP) when I made this set.

The display cases are repo'd to the Zecutine commercial counter (you must have H&M for this to work in your game) so they will pick up any recolors you might already have. The wall shelf and the border around the section sign are also repo'd to the H&M counter.

For the CD textures, the standing floor rack is the parent and the hanging rack is the child. I've made you six different CD shelf types:

Classical

2. Jazz

3. World music (this was such a staple in every CD store, and there was always a collection of Paris cafe music?)

4. Punk/rock (lots of parental advisory stickers in this section! You can't see it in the final product, but I did make them Simlish...)

5. Pop music #1

6. Pop music #2

There are five sign recolors included. They say (in Simlish): Classical, Jazz/Blues, New Releases, Pop/Rock, and World.

All three objects will be in Electronics > Audio for §350.

Download

And as a bonus, I've got the PSD file if you want to make your own CD covers! All you need are many small square images and you're set to go. It's a grid so it's pretty easy to customize yourself.

Download PSD file

I can claim no credit for any of the images used. I pulled these from a variety of TS2, TS3, and TS4 creators as well as some EA creations. If you're interested to know where a specific image came from, message me and I'll direct you to the original!

3 Toddler Beds Functional for The Sims 2

These are 4to2 conversions from Wondymoon, Chicklet and Soloriya, low poly. They are cloned from Themediocresulk Toddler Beds as Pet Beds and work in the same way. The beddings are slaved to the original game ones so they will take all the recolors too. Found in the bed section of Buy Mode.

Radioactive Barrel for the Sims 2

I made this with my boyfriend :p I think he even did babby's first mesh editing on it. You'll recognizing the barrel from one of the Maxis fireplaces. The object intermittently emits a modified version of the evil Snapdragon bouquet's effect. Be careful, sustained exposure will kill Sims! They may also vomit and think of radiation, as pictured. Fumes above the barrel mean the noxious effect is active. The sfx is from the base game. The object is always surrounded by ambient smoke, using the original evil Snapdragon sfx. That won't appear if you don't have OfB. Finally, the barrel also casts a green light on surrounding objects. While Sims can "view" it, I made the interaction non-autonomous. The barrel is found under Misc/Misc for 100$. Also: thank you to WHoward for guiding me with the vomiting haha. -> Download at SimFileShare
