12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS, DAY 3: 3 FRENCH HORNS BRAIDS
“well ackshually, Elliott, these aren’t french braids ☝🤓. They're box braids.”
They’re french curl box braids and that’s got “french” and “braid” in the title and that’s good enough for me, so it damn well better be good enough for you. Day 3 of [ELITISIM'S 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS ADVENT EXTRAVAGANZA!] is @daylifesims Janey Braid Set, one hair, styled 3 different ways for maximum versatility!
Information:
None of this is my original work! All mesh and texture credit goes to the original creator @daylifesims!
Set contains 3 Hairs for Teen ➤ Elder Females
Same polycount for each - 25.8k polys
1024px Textures
Located under Hats
It has a cute lil clawclip in the back, you can see it better in the 360 pics under the cut.
Has 3 versions: V1 (both sides of the hair in front) - V2 (one side of the hair in front, one side down the back) - V3 ( hair down the back)

Ok, this one will be long, so at first I need to thank @martasimsbookcc and @aroundthesims - I studied their meshes quite a lot to see how they made it work, so I definitely stood on the shoulder of giants in this one.
Anyway:
All items recolorable, 1~4 channels, but unfortunately counters don't allow for multiple multipliers and masks so Compromises Were Made. Also, I didn't add all the stencils on the tiled bar/barista bar because of the lack of secondary masks to add + not wanting the file size to balloon. Feel free to retexture if you want, but I really wanted to keep the marble texture right there!
All BGC EXCEPT for the Barista Bars (they look like LN Professional bars but they're not and it's like that in the original), which require UL and the tiled version of the base counter and the base island, which used Pets items as a base because of the 4 channels but appear in-game as requiring LN, so they require LN.
The true counters and islands have the texture glitch; pretty much inevitable. I added a sims3pack version of them for those who prefer to not deal with them. The parts cloned from end tables don't have this issue.
Stools can only be added on well, the counters that are truly modular: marble counter and base island, tiled counter and base island (this one has a working corner). For the others, moveobjects on + a counter OMSP of choice ;)
Cabinets are freestanding so you can use them to decorate your shops and libraries too. They also have linked textures, so keep the MASTER one in you folder at all times or you'll reach Grey Mesh Hell.
The refrigerated display is just a surface with slots. use the Transmogrifier mod to make it work with your mod of choice: Baker's Bakery, Savvy(ier) Seller, they all work.
Please use the ALT key to align the endpieces/round pieces. I tried to align the meshes the absolutely best I could, and even a 1cm adjustment using S3DT will be too much. Those meshes were NOT beginner friendly!
Counters and islands have a 1x1.5k texture. Sorry, I had to make two diffuses into one and those textures are a bit on the detailed side, so I choose to keep their detail...
The highest poly pieces are around 1.7k (the chair and the marble barista bar). Nothing to worry about!
And collection file included so you don't have to suffer :P
These have been on my wish list for a long time! Being a medieval/historical player, I've always had a file full of cc candles that I use everywhere in my game; while I definitely have my favorites, I was still looking for the "perfect" ones. After poking around for a while I think I got pretty close to what I was looking for.
This is one of my manor rooms. It's midnight outside (thank the lord for the set hour cheat), and there are only four or five candles lit, yet the room is well lit and cozy. It's a 5x9 room I believe.
Same room and time, but with all the candles lit. It's bright, and probably warm in there at this point.
The best part about these candles in particular, in my opinion, is that they're real candles with a flame. @zoeoe-sims provided me with an amazing override script that allows the sims to recognize that there's light in the room, and removed the "dark" moodlet requiring you to put a real light somewhere in the room.
Additionally, I edited the lighting to have a warm candle color rather than white, and raised the brightness settings considerably.
Per usual, I added in plenty of extra textures for variety, and wound up having some beautiful results. You can apply any pattern you have in the game to the first texture slot, or simply recolor them to your preference.
If you don't want to go around lighting / extinguishing candles everywhere, I made an additional set that acts as a regular light. There won't be a flame, however, unless you have @omedapixel's candle mod (found on the making sims 3 medieval discord) which I highly recommend! I'll also be posting a separate file over there with her script enabled if you're interested.
I think that's about it. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have!

This is a default replacement for the harvestable bush for stuff like tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions
Like with my previous default replacement tree, I’ve always hated the trellis bush. It was so unsightly and clashed with almost every other plant in the vicinity.
The new mesh is more bush-like and slightly larger, which might make it problematic for situations where they’re placed right next each other.
(above from left: Tomatoes, Licorice, Bell Pepper, and Bumbleleaf)
Mesh and textures edited from a TS4 flowering shrub conversion by Kandiraver (original object here)
It comes with textures for Frost, Death, and wilted leaves.
Issues:
No Geostates. Like my tree replacement, this object looks like a mature bush when it reaches the first growth state. Time before it bears fruit still the same as before.

So you're super awesome at modding things and I was wondering if you could make a version of the buydebug daytime and ceiling lights to be in the regular buy catalog? I have a bug that causes my game to crash whenever i try to go into buydebug mode and I don't have my old discs to do a full uninstall/reinstall. :c Or if you know of one that already exists could you provide a link? Thank you and keep being awesome! ♥
Thank you, Anon! ;) Sorry to hear about your game acting up. Here is a default replacement recategorization of the buydebug lights, which will make them appear under Sort by Room \ Lighting \ Misc. I made some more modifications to them as well: they can’t be stolen and repossessed anymore, won’t burn, can be placed on slopes, and will stay after you move to another house!
I edited the ones that came with a patch, so you don’t need WA for them :)
This mod dynamically changes the main menu background image based on the time of day. It includes a total of 14 unique images, each available in 4 different time-of-day variations!
Please note that the mod info dialog is hidden by default. You can use the cheat "mods" to show it anytime or change a tunable for it to show on launch.
• Download & unpack .zip, and place Arro_RandomMenuBG_1.3.package file in your mods -> packages folder.
Be sure to check out Clean main menu if you want your main menu to match the look shown in the thumbnail :)
This mod also lets you set a fixed image or ignore time-of-day entirely. It includes customizable hours and a built-in image validator, ensuring maximum convenience and ease of modding.
Feel free to use this mod as a base for your own project—modify it and share it (with a credit) as you like! A tutorial is available here.

A huge shoutout to the amazing community on the TS3CreatorsCave Discord server! Special thanks to Eca and everyone who contributed to testing—it wouldn’t have been possible without you!

A special thanks to gamefreak130, whose Overhauled Loading Screen was as a major inspiration for this project!
The idea for this mod started with my want to convert TS2 Apartment Life closet. I could have used the Supernatural wardrobe as a base, but I wanted the doors to have proper animations and the ability to function like real closet doors against the wall, similar to how doors work in the game.
So, this mod was created! 😊
What is this mod?
This mod functions as a dresser but includes a new animation that allows the doors to slide open like an actual closet. When the closet opens and closes, the Sim plays an idle animation, and when changing clothes, they use the spin animation.
The mod includes two different types, depending on the closet:
Dresser Type – Offers the same interactions as the base game dresser. This type is best for closets without mirrors.
Mirror Type – Includes interactions from the vanity table in Supernatural and Showtime (Don’t worry, the mod is 100% base game compatible!).
Important!
This mod does not add a closet object to the game by itself. It only provides the necessary functionality for closet objects to work properly!
The Closet Object:
As mentioned earlier, this mod was created because I wanted to convert TS2 closet. The conversion is included with the mod, and you're welcome to use it as a base for creating your own closets! 😊
The closet comes in three different versions:
Opaque
Mirror – This version is split into two parts: the closet and a separate mirror for the animated door. To use it properly, simply place the mirror on the closet—it will slot into place and move with the door 😊
Glass
Both merged and unmerged versions are included—please install only one! (The merged file does not include the mod itself.)
How to Install?
Place the mod and the closet objects in your Mods/Packages folder.

phew. this took a lot longer than I expected! props to all cc creators, now I know how much of a pain in the butt it is. x)
anyway, here you go! I wanted some cute/sexy sleepwear for Jelly Bean now that she’s going to be pregnant a lot, so I made this and decided to share with you guys (ps you’re all amazing). Five outfits for your sexy mommies from the Master Suite Stuff pack, plus a bonus one from Seasons! These are all made base game compatible, so you don’t need to have the SP/EP installed c:
I’ve included the previews in the .rar file and did not merge the .package files so you can pick and choose which ones you want. (if you want .sims3pack files instead, just message me and I’ll post ‘em.)
Fluse over at Modthesims has created a larger version of Hylewood, exporting the original tiny map into a small map. I think she has done a great job creating new areas and replicating the original style, so if you’ve ever felt that Hylewood was too small, check this out HERE!
