Moocha's CC Vault

Hey everyone!

I've been getting a lot of asks about my Café Mod recently, things about mod compatibility mostly, which has been fun! Always great to revisit this mod. As a result I have made some important and helpful changes and updates to the mod 😊 Info under the cut!

Here are tropical versions to go with my recolour set of @vixsims 4t2 Catch of the Day functional food stall.

Created for and with valuable input from @klgfcg1234. 🫶

See all options and seperate download links under the cut ❤︎

After almost a week of smashing my head against a keyboard, I present to you my very first CC ever…

Moving alien antennas. They swing. They dangle. They bounce.

Version 1 - antennas move subtly. Less likely to clip. Compatible with a wider range of haircuts, but not all. Available for all ages and genders.

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! 😁

This mod adds face blends to the social bunny head mesh, to make some facial expressions possible.

Choose one of two options:

FB_DEFAULT_ExpressiveSocialBunny_Dirty

Only replaces the head. Keeps the original social bunny textures.

The missing left eye has no animations (I know that doesn't follow real life logic but I thought it looked better in this specific case).

Compatibility: It might look alright with some texture defaults. Not compatible with mesh defaults.

FB_DEFAULT_ExpressiveSocialBunny_Clean (Pictured above)

Replaces the head and the social bunny textures. Clean textures (with missing eye restored) are by Phaenoh, I included them because I edited a few pixels around the eyes to make the blinking animation look better.

Both eyes are animated.

Compatibility: Not compatible with texture or mesh defaults.

Credits and thanks

Rockburn's Smaller Vampire Fangs Remapped to Fit CC Teeth Textures (+ Even Smaller Fangs Mesh Edit for Teens) for TS2

This gap in my vampires' fangs had been bothering me for a while, so I looked into what it was.

Most CC teeth textures have shorter teeth than the vanilla textures to add depth and give teeth a more rounded look. However, vampire fangs are mapped backwards so the top of the fangs use those parts too, not a problem for Maxis textures, but causes this effect with many CC teeth textures. So I remapped Rockburn's more reasonably-sized edit of the fangs to better fit CC teeth. Flipped the UV map and moved them to the lateral incisors to hopefully increase compatibility (sizing of the canines varied more widely). I can't guarantee this will fit every set of teeth, but at least now if a teeth texture is short, it will affect the tips of the fangs, which will just make them look more rounded.

Example CC teeth texture here is from @sixfootsims' Moonfruit skin (also used by my Cartoon Skinblend, microscotch's Woohoo on the Beach, veronavillequiltingbee's 2025 skin, multiple rascalcurious skins, and more):

Lastly, I also edited the size of fangs for teen sims, as they still looked pretty long to me. Here's what they look like now:

Original Post (MTS)

Same info applies as the original mod:

Mesh replacement for vampire fangs, no textures included

Changes may not apply immediately to existing vampires so use Change Appearance on them. You may also need to delete cache files.

For Teens - Elder vampires, unisex

Finally, after almost a month of waiting in the queue, MTS approved my Ultimate Object Overhaul mod!

Fixes the categories and subcategories of thousands of objects.

Sorts objects by size, type and function within subcategories.

Fixes slot placement and wall placement of all objects.

Adds dozens of new objects to the Catalog, including new rewards.

Adds all the SimPort rewards to the catalog and fixes the sorting.

Add tons of new objects to the Edit in Town category.

Decided to revisit my shader mods and I wanted a water mod that doesn't turn black without pools.

This pond water mod mod is an edit of this mod (I wanted something in between the blue version and the green version of it), plus added in the night snow edits (blue snow begone!). I also added in the pool shader from Radiance 2.4 so the reflections look different too.

The nhood water mod is an edit of this mod, plus added in Better Nightlife since the two mods conflict.

Finally, the roof shader. It should be more obvious on lighter colored roofs, but I made it a bit brighter but not as bright as Niol's shader, so Maxis roofs should still work well for the most part. Just removed the dark colorant in the material shader.

The news of what happened to GOS makes this a good time to mention, probably, something that I didn't mention earlier because of the hate I received when I scraped GOS.

I JUST FUCKING SAW, BITCH.

Okay okay, wait let me collect myself.

First, let me say that I'm actually so sad to see it go. It's been a huge part of my time in the sims community. It's a shame that was so sudden. I really loved the community and I think it's a shame that it happened like it did.

With that out of the way.

BITCH, I TOLD YOU. I TOLD ALL OF YOU. I told ALL you motherfuckers exactly what would happen and everyone bitched like "Oh!! Well, WHY would you do this? Especially when it's not like GOS is closing down anytime soon???"

I got hate mail for months. Bitches poured out of the woodwork like "Mmmm I've always hated Billie, just another thing he's done to add him to my shit list" Then HL bitched at me and acted like the scrape cost him a huge amount of case in data usage when that shit was fucking cents on the dollar. I even offered to pay HL back the like 2 dollars that it *may* have costed him to scape.

Well GUESS who fucking took their ball and went home with very little warning?

It's probably less useful than @simnostalgia 's big 2023 scrape- I know I didn't get everything- but more backups are better than less backups.

There's @goatskickin's woods, a bunch of Ja and Kativip and NixedSims, some @mustluvcatz-reloaded ...

I've successfully scraped all of the available Custom Content that was linked on GOS from Mediafire, Box, and SimFileShare. (Mirrors on 4shared not included)

Of course, I can't go back in time to retrieve things that are already long gone but here's a .zip of 49 GBs of content. This is everything from the beginning of GOS to September 2023.

i wanted to see how hard it was to make something for paralives (it wasn't, just a lil confusing but i got it thanks to the discord & reddit!)

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 😉

Lighting Mod Ultimate Collection

(yes it's a reference to the ultimate collection because...it is indeed an ultimate collection)

The Lighting Mod Ultimate Collection is a lighting mod/framework that allows players to switch lighting configurations on a lot-level basis.

Now, the game itself already utilizes lot-level lighting as far back as Nightlife for Downtown lots, and some lighting mods have combined this with the usage of cheat aliases to use different lighting configurations that potentially suit different lots of neighborhoods, or using different lighting color definitions (as in Cinema Secrets's implementation of World Lit by Fire), or the lighting direction changes in Maxis Match Lighting Mod.

However, Lighting Mod Ultimate Collection takes this a step further and features five lighting mods in one setup. This means one installation and you can switch from one config to another on the fly.

I'm gonna need some help playtesting this one. Hit me with issues and conflict reports 🤓

So, this is a global mod for booths!

At restaurants, sims can now enter dining booths decorated with OMSPs or shiftable clutter, which was a problem before

At home, sims can now successfully serve, eat and clean up dishes in inaccessible parts of tables with dining booths. They will jump in and out of booths or crawl under the table when they can't scoot over normally, for example, when all entry seats are occupied by other sims

They will be able to reach plates in the far corners to clean them or put away

Download for testing Night Life may be required? Not sure if there are booths in other EPs

Conflicts - Tableware Setter (a.k.a. table_setter) - let UseInaccessibleDiningBooth load after it, and they'll both work fine - Older versions of Helpers_AssignTablesChairs, updated today one tiny thing to make them compatible

Recommended Inge's -Is Chair a Booth- global patch - lets your game recognize custom booth chairs

I'm obsessed with these booths now, they are so fun and detailed! Have you seen the under the table animation when there's available entry seat and sims try to reach another blocked seat? ❤️
