This is a download for The Sims 2!
I was digging in the Base Game files of The Sims 2 and found a square variant of the round Recalling Rugs. The rugOriental3x3 has a unique 3x3 square mesh that matches well with them. I have connected all the resources that I could and made it usable! I have made sure the rug only has 1 OBJD with the footprint extended, it's also priced at $1,100. This was made with HugeLunatic's Rug Fixes in mind, so without their download the rug will be dark indoors.
Also, if you'd like the CC star removed you can put the -ProgramFiles package in your Catalog folder, an example file path would be something like this: Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\Catalog\. The other file can go in your Downloads folder as usual
If you don't want to add another rug to clutter up your catalog, I have made recolors of the Isotopia Rug (FreeTime EP) as a repository option with the found textures as well. If you have any issues let me know!
This is not to be confused with Sung-Gyu Sunburst Oriental Rug, which is called rugOriental internally. I have a comparison screenshot above showing the differences. You can have both versions if you'd like.
Finally, Iโm ready to present the Sclera Accessory!
Whatโs the point?
This accessory helps solve a long-standing issue:
In TS2, when the sclera was painted directly onto the eye texture or used as a makeup overlay, it moved along with the iris, which looked unnatural. Players had to choose between a more realistic texture and better animation compatibility.
Now you can use eye textures with just a plain or gradient white sclera, while the lacrimal caruncle and eyelash shadow are placed on the accessory texture instead.
Thus, when the eye moves, the sclera remains in place.
How it looks in motion
Close-up:
Hereโs how my Sims look with and without the sclera accessory:
Details
The mesh is a separated and slightly edited part of the face mesh, which allows it to work perfectly with facial animations.
I also edited the UV map to make texturing easier.
The sclera works with any eye shape and is available for all ages and genders, including infants.
The PU-EU and BU meshes are separate files so you can easily relink your recolors for all ages.
Recolors
I made 4 recolors. I wanted the texture to be something between hyper-realistic and maxis match โ something in the middle. I know many of you are talented and will create even more amazing textures in different styles. Here's the PSD.
Known issues
First, I had to change the material type to StandardMaterial to make the textureโs opacity look better. Since this material type isnโt native to CAS items, it may cause transparency issues when meshes with alpha textures intersect.
Second, blue flashing fix: I didn't use a placeholder. Instead, I removed all references to the โlensโ group in the mesh and texture files. I didnโt get blue flashing in testing, but if it happens, let me know and Iโll upload a fixed version.
Jazz, Country, Rock, and other music for uplifting... epicureans.
Another 2x2 downtown-themed community lot from me, this time inspired by CBGB, the punk music venue that was in New York City.
Most of the exterior is just facades to emulate the interconnected buildings of New York, but in order to squeeze in a few more things without making it too small, I used the space that looks like it belongs to other buildings for the bathroom & a diner food stand.
Obviously the performing stage is very small, but I playtested it and sims are able to not only successfully use all the instruments, but the tip jar for every single instrument is also accessible to other sims. The guitar being at a 45 degree angle helps with the accessibility, because objects at that angle tend to become invisible to sim routing, so they just walk right through it.
Outfit organiser and Object relocator by Pic'N'Mix. Holy shit. Holy fuck. How can the fandom not talk about them more? I am sorting my downloads folder and they're just SO GOOD. Of course, they don't eliminate the need to go into simpe/the game to test stuff, but they sure help with sorting and weird file names. If these programs sound new to anyone, please look into them...
This post is fuelled by how bad google algorithms are and how annoying it was to actually find what those programs are called + only hearing about them about once. These utilities deserve more spotlight!

2-tile and 3-tile wide, centered. 112 poly. Found in Buildmode/Architecture (if you don't have M&G EP you'll need to recategorise it). 14 color options, only 3 textures (+ specular map).
Reached a new level of lazyness and since the original preview was far prettier than mine I figured I could just link it hehe (below the cut is my own preview + polycounts)
>Converted all items except for the pole thingy, everything is found in the paintings category and is shiftable!
>Fully recolorable, I recommend sticking to plain colors or using wood patterns that have horizontal and vertical versions, since some of the objects have rotated textures (not my doing, it's how it was done originally)
>Mesh/texture credits go to @sims4luxury , original ts4 post can be found >here<
>DOWNLOAD< (always free on patreon)

Here's another replacement 'cuz it annoyed me that Bisquit Number Cruncher from H&M SP didn't fit those OFB counters. Did a few recolors while at it.

Mesh replacement is optional. Recolors feature additive map so display panels will slightly glow in the dark if you have extended shader edit by @crispsandkerosene
Diagonal Roof Corners and edgers match bohemian roof [AL], quarter-height roof set by Maxon @jennamaxon and half-height roof set by WhiteWaterWood (MTS) << these are much more useful than original tall roof decor and I recommend you get both sets.
Download: SFS | BOX
*This is for The Sims 2
My diagonal roof bit is quite different from existing diagonal bit included in this large set of add-ons by Julsfels (MTS). It has slightly rounded corners - these look good when put together as little turrets.
My mini roof bits are a new thing - these are meant as wall edge hiders. Large rounded piece matches my Large Rounded Corner Wall.
The corner bits are a bit problematic (wall shading), but most issues can be fixed by placing the object with grid-snapping turned off.
All objects included in the archive are visible in hood view.
Large Round Corner fits two-tile wide diagonal wall. It blends (almost) seamlessly with the walls when placed as shown above. I recommend putting some dark wall recolor on the diagonal wall side to get rid of any flickering of the seam.
Recolor pack makes use of base game and AL textures, so Apartment Life is required.
Three textures included with the mesh are based on Pixelhate's Time Factor walls:
Masonry-02, Poured-02, Siding-10
It is safe to say that nothing in this world remains untouched by Time or Weather.
ย ย ย After a little pause I finally got back into The Sims 2 (ah, my first love~ โ), but this time I had a little bit of trouble switching from the advanced TS4 interface to TS2โฒs old and glitchy one, especially since the latter was designed to run on 4:3 screen resolutions.
ย ย ย Of course, I looked around for fixes (yโknow I love yโall beautiful modders out there ๐), yet I couldnโt seem to find anything that would fully satisfy me and my screen resolution. Hence why, Iโve decided to make my own!
ย ย ย Preview: [x] AND IT ALSO WORKS FOR PETS!! [x]
ย ย ย HOW TO INSTALL:
1.ย Navigate to your Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2/Cameras folder;
2. Backup your CASCamera.txt file, ITโS IMPORTANT!!
3. Download your file of choice and open the archive;
4. Extract the new CASCamera.txt file and replace the old one;
5. Enjoy~! ใ

These are compatible with screen replacements, as shown below:
if there are any issues that you find with this set, please don't be afraid to let me know! happy simming, and when you download this, do keep in mind,
I've made not one, not two, but four (!!!) pieces of cc! The sims above are wearing the makeup I've made and mouth corners, nothing else on the face. Download under the cut!
Blueberry Eyeshadow: this is an edit of the first eyeshadow from @mouseyblue's 'Super Real Shadows'. I blended it with some other monolids and fiddled with the outer corner to make it droopier. I really like this because it really alters the shape of the eye so much and makes it very distinctive! Ten colors using Trapping's actions. Alpha is by @serabiet.
Sunshine Nosemask: one of my favorite noses ever, so I decided to recolor them to fit my Honey Honey skin. The texture is originally by Mouseyblue, specifically from the Sunshine Skins set. The darker colors are a little crunchy in terms of pixelation but I personally don't mind it too much. Ten colors using Trapping's actions.
Lovedrunk Blush: an edit of @pooklet's 'brattylulu undereye blush'. I edited the alpha to remove the nose and chin blush and lowered the blush a little on the cheeks. It still catches the eye part which I think is quite adorable. I recolored it twelve times with my own blush colors.
Peony Lip Gloss: the texture from this gloss is entirely taken out of a picture of a swatch of a k-beauty lip tint. I played around with it and I almost scrapped it, but ended up pleased with the result. The shine looks really intense in game, almost jelly-like. I made ten natural colors and the alpha is by @noodlesims.
DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING
I'm sooo rusty and the preview pics are boring but I really hope you like this! Let me know your thoughts <3
9 new color options for my Magic Sigil (rug). I've updated the mesh file and old recolors - mipmaps are now functional, sigil looks a bit more crisp from the distance.
Magic Sigil Rug
TXMT recolor pack
Download: SFS
9 new colors use just one texture. Effect is subtle, and it looks best when you layer multiple rugs.
Anon asked me if a red recolour of the sigil exists - well, it does now ๐ค. Maybe somebody already made one, but it wasn't me.
If you experience broken aging, aspiration decay or any other timed event not working in certain lots/neighborhoods, this mod should fix it permanently and prevent it from ever happening again (or in the first place)

Thank you so much for sharing Barbie! I canโt wait to plop her in my game. Her mouth and lip combo is literally what grabbed my attention. Out of curiosity, is her hair a recolour you did? Itโs one of my fav hairs and I was wondering if there were more (Sorry for the pestering)
hey friend, you're not pestering at all :) it is and there are!
i retextured it (with @pooklet's v3.5) and did a few color combos, then pooklet did a few more. it also comes in these solid colors, binned like this. mesh is included.
Thank you SO MUCH for the tutorial on removing fence shadows in SimPE. It saved me from the agony of being unable to fully disappear an invisible fence
No problem :)
If anyone's interested, here's my edit (SFS) of the invisible fence by Pfish, with shadow and texture removed, edited description, fence price changed to 0 (fence shadow removal tut is here).
And here's Pfish's original MTS2 upload, it also includes invisible iron gate recolor.
