˚⟡˖ ࣪ thumb-nails !1!!1!! for 4 sets of nails ˚⟡˖ ࣪
HEEE!!! yeaaah I've finished a certain part of my project!! :D I was just too lazy to do it tbh - it's not difficult it's just TOO annoying, and in this case I had to try about 3 times to see which way the nails looked better (bc the first few times they didn't show up very well, especially the textured ones), but I think "fixed" it. They definitely look better (more detailed) in CAS than in the mirror (preview). As you can see, certain colours like white are not really visible, but they're tooltiped so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. I hope you like it!! It's fun taking the screenshots and editing them tbh!! what I don't like is simpe :P
Main Street Shops | CC-Free Sims 2 Lot | Create-a-town
This row of 5 cheery storefronts built on a 5x2 lot is the first in a little series of community lots to give your small towns some character.
The thing that sets these lots apart from other user-created lots you can put in your game is that they were designed for decorators!
I’ve heard from several people in the community that you enjoy how relaxing decorating can be, but coming up with the building shape is another story.
I prefer building as it’s a lot like playing with Legos was when I was a child (back when square and rectangular blocks where pretty much the only options). 😄 Sure, I don’t mind slapping a few basic pieces into a house, but spending hours painstakingly decorating is something I just don’t have time for. 😅
This is where you come in!
The lots in this series are mostly empty. The first floors are lightly decorated, but the second floors in this lot and in the lots to come are pretty sparse or completely empty. This was done on purpose to give you the freedom to customize the shops as you see fit.
It’s Win-win for both of us!
These shops also make nice decorative lots if you just want to add some visual character to your small-town neighborhood, as I mentioned earlier. (If you do this though, be sure to remove all of the bathroom stalls as those seem to show through walls in neighborhood views).
Since it’s a little difficult to really see what you’re getting in this lot with the overview pictures I’ll share some shots of each individual shop. They are all built on one lot as my skills with the Lot Adjuster are completely absent.
I’ve included some titles for the buildings, but these are only suggestions. Change things up as you’d like.
Tear out what I’ve put in and create something new. Slap a new coat of paint on the exterior, change the landscaping and you could reuse the same basic lot shapes over and over.
Restaurant with outdoor dining:
Clothing Boutique:
Cake Shop:
Electronics Store:
Book Store:
Remember, you can change these up and turn them into whatever you want.
Here are the floorplans:
1st Floor:
2nd Floor:
There’s even a basement with storage rooms on this lot, since that is a feature in some older buildings! Ideally, each shop would have stairs going to the basement, but given the limited space on the lot I’ve only put one set of stairs.
Main Street Shops: MF | SFS
CC-Free, but all EPs and SPs are required.
I’ve run this lot through the Lot Compressor so any random references to sims that aren’t there should be removed. I have also run it through the Lot Cleaner to remove any bits of buggy code. This lot comes with a shiny custom thumbnail so it has even more curb appeal in your Lots and Houses bin! 😄
I ALWAYS recommend using the Sims 2 Pack Clean installer to install lot files.
Look for other "create a town" community lots in this series to post soon!

We've all been there. Our sim is out having a lovely time with some friends, perhaps family, or a whole frat worth of loose acquaintances. They are hungry, they want to eat.
And somehow by the end your Sim has to foot the bill for the whole affair. Hardly seems fair, does it? I mean how often do you go around paying for everyone when you eat out? Nah. I am tired of my poor newcomers in town trying to make friends only to end up with a 8 people restaurant bill to cover on their meager salary. Clearly it is not my fault for making food more expensive resulting in 800+ bills (😇) but the lack of manners in sim-restaurants not providing a means to split the cost 😤 No more!
With this mod, the restaurant podium (*) will now give you the option of splitting the bill. Can be used on dates as well as outings, though it only shows up if there are non-household members taking part in the meal. If there are any such, the podium will give you the option to only pay a fair share of the total bill, corresponding to the % your sims make up out of the total. In the example above, only one sim out of 4 was part of the household, so the sim is given the option to pay 25% of the bill. If two sims had been household members, it would have been 50%, and so on. (**)
(*) Will not apply to custom podiums without a tweak, more info under the cut.
(**) Only active household pays, the remainder of the bill is negated entirely. If you play a strictly regulated economy, your restaurant will earn less when you use this option. To track exactly what you ate, or force payment from multiple source is both overly complicated and more conflict-prone, and I do not personally think it is worth the effort here. If you run OFB restaurants, just don't use the option in those.

Conflicts: None that I know of. Does not conflict with Lamare's reservable tables 😊 Edits TTABs of the maxis podiums, action strings and pay bill action/guardian interactions in the semi-global, and adds one custom bhav to the semi-global.
Credits: @episims who when I was frustrated about this in my game pointed out it probably wouldn't be too hard to fix, and what do you know it wasn't. Thank you for being my second opinion and pointing out I can do more than I myself think I can :P Love ya buddy 🥰 @grilledcheese-aspiration who was kind enough to do some tests for me, much appreciated! @kashmiresims who kindly agreed to take previews for me since my game is in Swedish and the text would not have made a lot of sense to most of you :3 Her sims are lucky they don't get my kind of bills! 😁
Editing custom podiums
Due to how Maxis set up the menus of podiums, it was necessary to tweak the TTAB to alter which interaction is used which means custom podiums are not impacted. It is however a super easy fix that anyone can do, so if you have a custom podium you would like to fix this is how you do it. Locate your package and follow the steps.
I think most everyone with a custom podium are likely to be using Sunni's partly invisible version, and since I know some people do not like touching SimPE however easy it seems to me, I figured I'd include an edited version.
It comes with a bonus fix that shifts the podium ever so slightly forward, to prevent the routing stomping protests the host gives if you place it on grid over a counter. If you have previously placed podiums you want to apply this routing fix to, please note it is a CRES edit which means the item has to be cleared from lot and re-purchased in order to actually update.
Download edited podium on SFS
If you have edited yours to add custom foods to the menu, or even just missing maxis foods, and you want the routing fix, I recommend extracting and importing your edited bcons :)
Credits: Sunni for the great idea of a partly invisible podium, it is indeed far more versatile just as she intended
A mini mod to go with today's Fight Can Kill update
First of all, fraternity-exclusive Sleep On Floor interaction has been unlocked before by Cyjon and aliasthepal, check out their pages to see if their versions suit you better
I enabled user directed action for sims with about half full energy bar (25) without any new conditions (other than not being in a pool or already asleep)
Then for autonomous action, sims have to have about a quarter of energy left (-40) and one of these conditions met:
party + being outgoing (7+ points) and sloppy (3 or less)
being a frat member on frat lot, if they live there or invited to stay
one other thing that won't affect you because it's from my unreleased mod
So, it's different enough to justify me sharing my version. Grab it here if you're interested:
Hi! Thank you for sharing your mods! I have a sugestion for your addon for gummis add on for simple laundry.
You might know smonaff's "Click on sim to change clothes.". I thought, it would be cool, if a pile of laundry in a sims inventory is needed and used up, when changing clothes by clicking on sim.
Anyway, have a lovely day and happy simming :)
Oh what a good idea - a check for laundry inside their inventory as well as in dressers. Yes I can do that, thank you for the idea
As suggested by Anon, here's an update to my laundry addons for laundry addons mod! The mod will now check for a clean laundry pile inside the sim's inventory to use up before checking for the nearest dresser or wardrobe, as I figured it kind of made more sense to check there first, as though maybe the sim was carrying clean clothes with them.
The update was made to the TA_Global_ChangeOutfitCostsCleanLaundry file and will work with both Sun & Moon's laundry mod and Lamare's simple laundry mod.
Reminder: Gummi's addons are also required for my addons. Get them here.

These counters get their own post because they come with some extra bits!
First I bring you recolors in the usual Lunamoth metals (look best with the Extended StandardMaterial Shader), @morepopcorn woods, and Sugar Rush colors. And a default replacement using two of the metals.
I also made a mesh edit that makes the lower hardware pull their textures from the countertop subset. I think that lets you mix-and-match colors in more interesting ways. I included an accompanying edit to @teaaddictyt's pantry add-on, though the wood texture will stretch a bit oddly.

A gift I made for @lamare-sims 😊 There's a few options for this out there already, but we agreed there was room for improvement so here is my take on a slot blocker object.
Found in general/misc, it costs nothing, and it does what it says on the tin. It sits in slots, to take up that space in situations where you perhaps wanted to rotate the object (shameless self-plug) or you had to use an OMSP to avoid clipping so that a slot visually looks filled but functionally isn't.
What Lamare wanted specifically was for this slot blocker to not prevent you from clicking on objects underneath it. So that's what I did! 😁 In live mode the object goes invisible automatically, and shrinks to the size of a speck of dust so that you have full clicking access to whatever may be overlapping :3 When you return to buy mode, it'll return to regular size and texture so that you can remove it if you want to. You can also recolor it invisible manually, if you prefer, it'll then remain invisible whether in live or buy/build.

May you clutter even more intensely, float free and clip free 😉
Credits: Lamare for the prompt, Epi for the base I used that doesn't get confused if you recolor the object manually

I saw your post and immediately said "Rensim". It's frankly bizar that I can remember floors that were made in 2010, I wish I could apply that skill to real life lol
You can find them here.
Edit: I see now that @infinitesimblr had already replied, oops!
Ever wondered why all the power plants you decorate your neighbourhoods with suddenly shut down whenever you enter a lot? Do the workers organise a mass strike during each loading screen? And who's the joker who keeps stealing all my farm fields???
With TS2VisibleHoodFX™, you can bust those pesky power plant unions and have your Sims marvel at the wonders of the industrial revolution from the comfort of their homes, as toxic pollutants pour into the atmosphere day and night! Mmm... Fossil fuels...
Complete global saturation.
Desiderata Valley - note the wild flowers, farm fields, train, and blinking water tower light.
Because neighbourhood effects were never designed to be seen in lot view, there are a few minor issues you should be aware of. I'll have to get into some technical details, so I'm leaving all the nerd stuff below the cut.
As always, you'll need either the Ultimate Collection or the disc version with all EPs and SPs to use this mod.

README
Issues
Maxis gimped the lot skirt's functionality when compared to the neighbourhood terrain and lot terrain. The most obvious example of this is the lot skirt looking like absolute ass, while the neighbourhood terrain has detailed cliffs etc. - both the neighbourhood terrain and lot terrain support multiple paint layers and alpha maps, whereas the lot skirt is just one, boring texture.
Unfortunately, these limitations cause some semi-annoying problems when forcing hood effects to show up in lot view.
Certain effects have bugged positioning
When you download the mod, you'll notice that along with the usual plugin, there's a config file included too. This config file is important, as it allows you to blacklist neighbourhood effects to prevent them showing up in lot view.
Why might you want to blacklist effects? Well, several effects appear to require something called an 'effect map' to be positioned correctly in the world (don't ask, I don't know what an effect map is either).
The neighbourhood terrain and lot terrain both have an effect map, but importantly, the lot skirt does not. This means that the effects that rely on an effect map for their positioning (mainly those that are placed on water) will appear way up in the sky when you load in to a lot:
If you want to know why they get placed in the sky, it's related to a peculiar bug(?) I discovered while trying to figure out why decal effects (e.g. farm fields and wild flowers) weren't appearing in lot view, even though I could clearly see the game creating and processing them in the debugger.
Basically, things like decals and shadows need to be assigned to an overlay manager which... manages overlays. For whatever reason, when you load a lot from the neighbourhood, rather than assigning these to the lot terrain or lot skirt overlay managers like the game logically should, it instead assigns them to the neighbourhood terrain overlay manager. The same thing happens with the effect maps - the neighbourhood effect map is used, not the lot terrain one.
The neighbourhood terrain coordinates aren't actually 1:1 with the lot skirt. The game generates the lot skirt below the neighbourhood terrain during the loading screen, and translates the position of each object downwards. Couple this with the neighbourhood effect map being used, and you get boats sailing around in the sky.
It isn't until you travel to a community lot or switch to another playable household while in lot view that the game starts using the relevant lot effect map and overlay managers. For example, if you load the Goth household from the Pleasantview neighbourhood screen, then click on the Pleasant's house to switch to them, boats will suddenly start sailing around in their garden as the lot terrain effect map is now in use:
I have no idea whether this quirk has any noticeable effect on gameplay, outside of when trying to get neighbourhood effects to appear in lot view. I've already patched the decals so they correctly get assigned to the lot skirt overlay manager when loading from the neighbourhood, but I'd be interested to know if there are any instances of lot effects not appearing until switching lots due to the incorrect effect map usage!
The config file is preconfigured to blacklist any problematic vanilla effects, so you don't need to worry about adding these yourself - it's mainly there in case you run into any custom hood effects with bugged positioning that you'd want to prevent appearing in lot view.
Decals appear on top of roads
Decal effects will draw over roads in lot view, instead of drawing underneath them like in hood view, as they should do. I can't say for certain why this happens, but I'm pretty sure it's due to differences between the neighbourhood road materials and the lot skirt ones.
If we patch the code that creates the lot skirt roads to simply use the name of the neighbourhood roads instead, we can see that although the roads no longer match the surrounding terrain and have huge holes in them, the decals do correctly draw below them. Weird, right?
Either way, you should probably move any farm fields and wild flowers away from the roads to avoid this happening.
Decals that overlap the current lot's bounds get cut off
This is due to the lot skirt and lot terrain being two separate entities, each with their own overlay managers. Decals can only be assigned to one of these managers, so are unable to be drawn by both.
The lot skirt also does some maths to mask out the lot bounds, which prevents it from drawing its overlays over the lot terrain. You can patch out this mask and allow decals to overlap the lot, but it causes all of the decals and shadows on the lot to flicker like crazy, as both the lot skirt and lot terrain are fighting to draw their overlays on top of the other (aka z-fighting).
