Repos Blues

I am working on Bunkbeds for Sims 2. The Traditional and Castle beds from Sims 3. I've made them both and a separate mattress for the top bunk. Why the blues? Because, well it's fighting me at every turn. I'v only altered the frame on the pine bed and for some reason the bedding animation is off. *the covers don't turn down any more*. On top of that the sheets are no longer linked to maxis bedding which is what I want. I've trying using the repository technique to fix the issue *3x from 3 different tutorials* and only succeeded in turning my top bunk blue. Sigh. lucky for me a keep two copies. I'm going to have to go back to the drawing board before I can share.

Shaundak21 Presents: Single and Double Tile Versions to Match HugeLunatic's Sims 3 to Sims 2 Conversion "Puddle Curtains".

And a Recolor!!!!!!!!!!!!! (^_^)
Hi all, today I have some little goodies for you. I have a Recolor of HL S3toS2 Puddle curtain, get HL's mesh HERE 
You need her mesh to use the 3 tile recolor pictured above.
      My meshes are already this color and you need the recolors in the file to match HL's mesh. Everything is clearly labeled and I've also included my mesh maps so you can recolor them if you want. They aren't slaved I wish I knew how, so yeah, you'll have to make one for each version if you want make matching sets. (or slave them to HL's if you know how) The 2 tile version is my favorite. I fits the window so nicely :0)

Salty for soaking :0(

I'm working on converting five hot tubs from Sims 3 to Sims 2. Two of them are working out okay, and just need some recolor work but the other three are a puzzle. I have them in game, they are in the catalog and can be selected but not placed.  URRGGGG! How to fix this? :0( While I figure it out, here's some eye candy.

Lfgomar's super train set for Sims 2

I have a wonderful conversion to share today. The awesome Luis has given me permission to share with you all. Check out his site: "My Sims Concepts" . This is his set Urbano, Estacion de tren subterraneo for The Sims 2!
My conversions don't do the set justice, as always recolors would help.So here's the skinny.    
All pictures are in game. It Should only require base game. They are decorative and found under sculpture in the buy catalog.
Tunnel part-overhead fits directly over but I like to put it over a deck to give some height, like in the picture.
Tunnel part- tracks sits on the ground. It looks best 4 clicks down for 3 squares distance. With a deck on either side like in the picture. :0)
The Head Car is sitting on an empty floor tile cause by the decking/foundation. This makes it look like it's on the track.
Passenger Car you can make them look like one longer one by not skipping a tile. or skip tiles for a one door car.

Turnstyle In this picture, both the front and back is shown. I used the off grid cheat to place it in the center.
Enter/don't enter sign on one side is the arrow and on the other is the "don't" mark.
Entry deco the lovely arch over the door way. There are 4 of them pictured. they also make a nice flower box on the ground. The mesh is completely grey or black, pictured is a recolor i did. You'll probably want it. Recolor

 Here we have the : Ticket machine ,Telephone and the Bulletin Board. The signs are mostly blank so you can place the names of your subway stops, neighborhoods and City centers. I'm working on some simlish maxis hood signs for this set.
This Triple sign is one object. Also it's as cute as a button.
Overhead sign on the left and Poster ad board on the right. I know some will have a fields day with this. I am looking forward to heaps of simlish.

4 sided board  the opposite side repeats the ads. The center/ back of the board has the same texture as the legs.
We then have the Subway sign, followed by the map and info sign and then the 2 sided board. I hope everyone likes it. Thanks again to lfgomar for letting me do this. credit also due to the usual conversion tools tsr workshop, simpe, s3oc, s3pe, and photoshop. I did a recolor *shock face*!!! still not great but I'm working on it.


Lastly, a pic of the head car next to a wall for scale.
Enjoy!. All the normal rules apply and also please give lfgomar credit if you share recolors. Happy simming!

Elite Washer and Dryer from TLS

Hello Dears,
Today I have for you some laundry decoration. It's the High End washer and dryer Yay!!! Converted from Sims 3 Town Life stuff for your Sims 2 simmies to stand by and look busy ;)
I've told you guys before, here comes the grey. It should only require base game and is found in buy catalog Appliances. 
I love these meshes because they fit next to each other like a glove. ALL CREDIT TO MAXIS/EA it is their mesh I just converted it. Credit also to TSR workshop and s3oc, s3pe, s3obj tool.

I'm hoping some of you awesome simmers will recolor it. * wink, wink, nod*

SImS 2 crOSSinG THe RoAd!

This Upload I made to give my game a city feel. It's 3 streetlights found under lighting->Miscellaneous in the buy catalog. It is NYC style and made to match the street lights in NL. NL is required
 
This is a Lot In Pleasant View.
Day time shot- Corner with a Sim and 2 story homes for scale.
The second picture is the same lot at the other corner.
Nighttime shot- As you can see it does not glow green, red and yellow. Just lights the area

They can be seen in neighborhood view!
It should be a handy prop for story tellers.
This was the first mesh/cc I ever made so be kind.

Tattoo chair, kIND Of (^_^)

Well, first I am sharing a chair I made to go in a tattoo Parlor lot I made in my Game. What it is actually, is a re-mesh of the OFB makeover chair. The animations work, and it matches that spiffy leather chair set maxis made. *issue, when the seated Sim is raised there is a gap* It was made with the Idea that if you have overlays of Tattoos and piercings in your download folder(under makeup/accessories setting in game) you can choose them and bring the experience to life.
I have started a thread on MTS quite some time ago to find someone to fix the gap/sim float but it didn't work out. There is also more pictures and a better detail of what I wanted to do with it. But I have been using it this way for a long time. Here is the link if you a interested:

I will also do some meshing of my own. I'm letting you guys know out of the gate that I suck at recolors, I truly do. I also dislike meshes covered in photos instead of texture so you are warned!!!!! Here comes the grey.
With all that said:
*YES

Welcome!

After Much thought, I decided to go ahead and make a blog for my Sims 2 addiction. So I'll be sharing stories, meshes, pictures and thoughts about the game I love so much.
