featuring only the worse possible preview ever, could not contain my excitement to realise that this actually WORKS
if you are like me and constantly used CC hiders/honeywell roof trims to cover those ugly edges on the floor tiles, well NO MORE!! i was trying to default that floor you see (the checkered one) i defaulted the wrong one but whatever, dl that here!
and found the resource for the edge instead. see below for the original maxis one and how it looked,
i recoloured it with just a flood fill white, i really hope you all enjoy this!

Advent gifts out in the wild! Thank you everyone for participating!
To the ones who missed out the 12-day event, or just wanted to revisit the goodies, here's everything under one post. Enjoy! ๐
More info below the cut..
๐ DAY 1: 2to3 Kitchen & Bath "Tres Rugs by Sleek Sensations"
This rug actually has five presets (I said only four in the advent post *facepalm*), where one preset has only one channel, three have varying color channels, and another one that is not recolorable. Found in Decor > Rugs, costs ยง430.
๐ DAY 2: Cozy Patio Table
I made this table using the legs from the "Deluxe Cozy Terrarium" from Outdoor Living, then put a glass top and voila! A cozy patio table. Five slots as with any 1x1 dining table with one channel. Found in Surfaces > Dining Tables, costs ยง200.
๐ DAY 3: 4to3 Snowy Escape "Bamboo Forest Fence"
Yep, we are still lacking various fences in TS3, hence converting this gem from Snowy Escape. Three channels, costs ยง25. Found in Build mode > Fences.
๐ DAY 4: 4to3 "RAW Utensil Holder"
For the clutter lovers, here's something for your kitchen, if you also love the industrial accents from TS4 like me. Four channels, costs ยง430, found in Decor > Sculptures, Misc.
๐ DAY 5: 2to3 Kitchen & Bath "FaceBowl by Sleek Sensations"
This conversion took almost a year in the making and thought would never get finished, but here it is, finally ready to conquer your bathrooms! Four channels, costs ยง670, found in Plumbing > Sinks.
๐ DAY 6: Outdoor Living "Class-E Dining Table" Unornated
I love the stuff from Outdoor Living, but why didn't EA make un-ornated versions of the furniture for variety? And so I did the work. Same channels and slots as the original, only differs in price which is now ยง825. Found in Surfaces > Dining tables. Outdoor Living not required.
๐ DAY 7: 2to3 Apartment Life "BLOK Jr. Block from COGnition"
I miss the industrial/gearhead aesthetic from TS2:AL and this wall is one of those, so I converted it. Three channels, costs ยง11, found in Walls > Panelling.
๐ DAY 8: Outdoor Living "The Poet's Respite" Unornated
Another un-ornated piece of furniture from Outdoor Living (I just couldn't stand the cursive elements sometimes @.@). Lowered the price to ยง300, everything else is left intact. Outdoor Living is also not required.
๐ DAY 9: 2to3 Kitchen & Bath "Pots Descending from Ceiling"
I hate repeating myself, but yeah it's nostalgia that's the main reason why I convert 2to3 items. Especially from this stuff pack, I'd love to convert everything else left unconverted from it (but the counters stop me from doing so). Two channels, costs ยง160, found in Decor > Sculptures, Misc.
๐ DAY 10: 4to3 Max20 Shark Plush Toy
I've been pondering if I should put this one up for download, because I couldn't find the original cc post to link. But having seen this 4to2 conversion, I figured I should also share it. Two channels, costs ยง100, found in Decor > Misc, Kids > Misc. Credits to Max20 for the original TS4 creation.
Fun fact: I own a real life counterpart of this plushie (I got this as a secret santa gift), and now my cat has already claimed it as his property. ๐ฑ๐ฆ
๐ DAY 11: Ambitions "Le Sconce" made fully CAStable
I hate it when EA decides to make an object part unrecolorable when there are actually many ways to redesign it, like in this default replacement I did on a mirror. This wall lamp now has the emblem CAStable, and also edited the mask into three channels for a more versatile recolorability. This is a default replacement, so you need Ambitions for this to work properly.
๐ DAY 12: 4to3 "The Centurion"
Need something to fill your dining room but too lazy to decorate it using shelves and clutter? Say no more! This pre-decorated hutch from TS4 is now also available for TS3! Three channels, costs a hefty ยง1880 (why EA?), found in Decor > Sculptures.
The Poet's Respite Unornated: 994 (hLOD)/360 (mLOD)
Pots Descending from Ceiling: 2122 (hLOD)/1190 (mLOD) (!!!)
Max20 Shark Plush Toy: 750 (hLOD)/444 (mLOD)
The Centurion: 420 (hLOD)/360 (mLOD)

Loading Screen Logo Replacements + Neighborhood Selection Screen HD
I have made all of the expansion packs, stuff packs and also compilation packs logos as default replacements for the loading screen logo.
You can see all of the logos here
I suggest using loading randomizer from greatcheesecakepersona to make it randomized and also hd loading screens from thesammy58
If you dont want to use loading randomizer you should only select one file and put it in the ~\EA Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\UI folder
DOWNLOAD
Now on to the second part! Neighborhood selection screen in 1920x1080p
Ultimate collection icon is not included, it is from eddysims ultimate collection theme pack
You should again, put it in your ~\EA Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\UI folder

This is a default replacement edit of the base game decor item "Crocks O' Stuff" with edited presets. In the original five presets have the sunflower stencil while the other three stencils only have one preset each so the four extra sunflower stencil presets were removed and a stencil-less preset is also added.
Seasons' Wall Hook De-starified as Default Replacement
In collaboration with @ilvansims3, thank you very much for the help!
To the anon who asked me to make this a default replacement, here you go!
This version now requires Seasons, so that you can browse this wall hook 'star-free' from the catalog by default. Well not totally, as the first preset is the original unedited version while the second and third presets now have the stars removed. Same four channels, price, and buy categories as the non-default version.
