Hi everyone!

Celebrate 25 years of The Sims! 🎉

This is a set of new loading screens in @microscotch's style!

They are made with a neon effect and compatible with Starship UI by @simstate!

The archive contains 12 variations: 6 without glare and 6 with glare.

1. Variations 1-1 & 1-2:

2. Variations 2-1 & 2-2:

3. Variations 3-1 & 3-2:

4. Variations 4-1 & 4-2:

5. Variations 5-1 & 5-2:

6. Variations 6-1 & 6-2:

Also, I made a new Splash-file!

Music: Steve Jablonsky - The Sims 3 Main Theme (Vector Squad Remix), original HERE.

You can listen it:

As a bonus, I created a new icon for "Legacy Collection":

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Use Loading Randomizer so that every time you enter the game, the loading screen and music will change.

You can download the program and read the instructions HERE.

2. For completeness of stylistic design, it is recommended to download and install:

- Starship UI by @simstate;

or, if you want:

-  Clean UI by @greatcheesecakepersona;

To avoid incorrect display in "Neighborhood Menu Background", you need the following files:

- THIS NEIGHBORHOOD MENU BACKGROUND by me:

OR:

in Starship UI: simstate-starshipUI-menu-background-only.package

in Clean UI: gckp-clean-ui-menu-background-only.package

OR:

Any other "Neighborhood Menu Background" you can find.

- THIS IN-GAME LOADING SCREENS by me:

INSTRUCTION:

1. If you choose NOT TO USE Loading Randomizer:

- Put Loading Screen into the “UI” folder of the BASE GAME:

Default: C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSData\Res\UI

Legacy Collection: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Sims 2 Legacy Collection\Base\TSData\Res\UI

Ultimate Collection: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\UI

Attention!

! Choose ONLY ONE of 12 variations of Loading Screens !

The loading screen must be placed exactly in the “UI” folder of the BASE GAME!

! NO EXPANSION PACKS or STUFF PACKS !

- Put Splash file into the “Sound” folder of the LATEST EP, for example: Apartment Life.

2. If you choose TO USE Loading Randomizer:

- Install the program according to the instructions. You can use the VIDEO TUTORIAL by Pleasant Sims.

- Put 6 OR ALL 12 Loading Screens into the /custom_loading_screens folder;

- Put Splash file into the /custom_splash_music folder.

This is another difficult conversion I have had on the back-burner for a while, but had not worked out a method to translate it (at least semi-reasonably) into a TS4 cas item. It's really high poly. I used the same sneaky (and experimental - for me -) method that I used on the Halwe hair which might not be perfect, especially with the lower LODs, so I do apologise if there's anything going on I haven't been able to predict or counter through my own testing.

[REGARDING HIGH POLY ITEMS]

♫ This is stupidly high poly. Do not download if you cannot handle high poly items in your game. These items are between 82-103k poly at LOD0 and should be used sparingly.

♫ Please limit the amount of sims in an active save who wear this style at once, especially within the same household.

♫ Please do not keep these item in your mods folder when you are not currently playing a save where a sim wears this item, unless you are certain that your game will not be negatively impacted by the larger poly count.

♫ It is not recommended to use this high poly item on NPC sims.

♫Please use this item sparingly.

♫While this item has full LODs, you will still be loading 80-100k polygons when you load a sim wearing this hair and view them at the closer distance. You must understand that this is a very large amount, and may increase the burden on your game.

♫I do not recommend using high poly cc in your game if you play on a low-end device.

♫I do not recommend pairing this hair with many other high poly items.

♫Please keep your game healthy and use this sparingly.

♫Posies will only make a few items that will reach this high of a poly count.

♫The high count of this mesh is due to the source mesh being extremely high poly.

Posies attempted to optimise this mesh, but could only do so much and any reductions further than this would have lead to a visually 'choppy' mesh.

So here it is, it is STUPIDLY high poly.

Additional note : While some of the hairs I intend to go back and convert for younger life stages, for these high poly hairs it's a definite NO. This is very detailed even for an YA sim, it absolutely would be unjustifiable on a PU or CU sim.

Boring shit :

TOU* :

Provided the usage is NONCOMMERCIAL AND THERE IS NO EARLY ACCESS OR AD REVENUE GAINED FROM YOUR USE OF THE ASSETS

DOU (do! tou)

Edits and recolors are welcome. You may include the mesh.

Conversions to other sim games is fine.

Conversions to games that don't have rewards for creating / uploading cc is fine. You might find it better to just convert straight from the source games rather than using my versions, though.

Reuploading is fine for archival purposes (If my patreon and SFS are gone, and my tumblr has not provided other links)

Use in deco sims or build objects is fine (that'd be really cool!!!)

Make corrections or compatibility updates if Posies is unable to do it, inactive or too busy.

NOU (no! tou)

No using this cc in paid or early access sim dumps.

No using this cc on model sims when advertising your own paid or early access cc.

No uploading this cc, derivatives or this cc or links to this cc to ad-sites [simfinds, curseforge, modco, any individual cc finds blog external to tumblr that receives ad revenue, any other social media account which is monetized. I don't care if people see my cc- you are not an altruist, you are a capitalist. starve.]

No re-uploading this cc to cc packs.

No re-conversions to games that have external or internal rewards systems for creating cc.

Regarding conversions :

Posies converts solely for fun and to bring items into the sims 4 which Posies enjoys and believes can be used for players to greater express themselves. The meshes Posies has used have already been on the internet for some time. Posies isn't converting the meshes entirely faithfully, but trying to be creative and transformative with how Posies uses the textures and meshes Posies converts. Non commercial share-alike only, This post is not monetized, you should not monetize or otherwise profit from the use of this mesh, these files, these textures. You should not monetize or otherwise profit from derivatives of this mesh, these files, these textures. Bundling this file into paid sim-dumps, republishing links to this file on sites which receive ad revenue, bundling this file and republishing this for any commercial use is prohibited. If crediting via wcif please remember these are conversions and so while much was done by Posies, this is also a derivative work and the effort that the original artists put into their work should not be devaluated. Posies does not support selling conversions from other games into the sims 4 (nor any other game for that matter.). Don't be a rotten gourd.

(all screenshots taken in game)

I was going to take individual shoots for each variant, but I'm really tired now, so I'll add that another day, lol. Enjoy hair!

Additionally, I will recommend this hair of the same style by lechair's chair. It's really nice
