It's Midnight Flows. It needs a photoboth and some instruments. Also not good for large groups, though you could add more seating if you're willing to give up some dance floor.
Ah, thank you! I havenāt visited the Downtown lots in ages.

I have a lovely default for that vest, but only for adults. I want one for teens.
Poor teens. I do think theyāre the most overlooked age group...well, either them or elders. But at least teens have a fairly good selection of clothes in the vanilla game. Elders...not so much!Ā
olivesims replied to your post āC, I, and Z! ļæ½ļæ½ā
I think I would describe my MM style as "muted" colors. I also never jumped on the bright everything bandwagon, though I do really enjoy seeing other people with super colorful games. Thanks for answering. :)
Yes, I saw your answer to that question too, and I think thatās a great way of putting it. :)Ā

I wonder if he's "scolding" a baby with a dirty diaper? Quite the mystery!
That would make sense too...except that had no babies! So mysterious! :D

Oh yes, absolutely! But not in a cheaty wayā¦if that makes any sense. :P Building and decorating cheats probably go without saying (and moveobjects to save poor stuck Sims!), and I use familyfunds sometimes to make families poorer. I canāt even remember the last time I used motherlode!Ā
I: What is your sim-inspiration; any styles you like to create?
Ack, I was afraid I would get asked this one! Itās so hard to pinpoint exactly where inspiration comes from in a bustling community where we all feed off each other. I canāt even count how many times Iāve seen a picture of someone elseās game and though āOoh, thatās really cool!ā and instantly want to try it myself. But I do know that one of the first Sims blogs/sites/other that really inspired me was @meetmetotheriverās LJ because I discovered the community back when a more realistic style was the in-thing and hers was the first I found that really embraced that Maxis-match style that I liked (and had little choice but to play because my old computer couldnāt handle much CC) and she played the premades just like me! So through her I discovered a lot more other Maxis-match journals and stalked them for a long time until I finally worked up the courage to join in.Ā
As for creating stylesā¦I donāt really know what else to call my style other than Maxis matchā¦though maybe a bit more mellow/darker than a lot of MM-ers. (That is, not so many bright colours, though I donāt mind them.) I really like more classic/traditional styles in building and decorating, though Iāve experimented with modern stuff as well. Gee, this is a really broad question! Iāll end it there before it gets too long. Oops, too late.
Z: How many GB/MB of CC do you have? Is your mods folder organized?
Itās at 6.24 GB right now, which is bigger than Iād like, but Iām definitely not in the mood for cleaning it out right now! It doesnāt feel like I have that much stuff in there eitherā¦
And yes, my entire Downloads folder is painstakingly organized. Though itās been organized for years now, so it really isnāt that painful to keep it up. ^_^ I like to be able to find things easily, in case I ever want to pull something, or replace if an updated version comes in.
Yay, I got about 10 hours of sleep in twoĀ āshifts.āĀ āBout time. :P Unfortunately, now my sleep schedule is whacked since I woke up at 4:30AM. But hopefully Iāll get back on track over the next few days.
Anyway, replies for @littleblondesim, @olivesims, @holleyberry, @penig, and @simblrcorner...
littleblondesim replied to your post āThe usual replies. :)ā
Your post lead me to noeatcrap, too. I agree completely with you that it has too much extra stuff. Same as Fuzzy said, I'm interested. :)
Yeah, Pescadoās mods are like that. He has very specific ideas about how the game should run. Which is fine because we all do, and all our ideas are a little different from each other. (Mine happens to be waaaaaaaay different than Pescadoās. :) ) I just wish he had separate mods for each bit of what noeatcrap does, so that we could pick and choose the bits we want. But, since he doesnāt....Iām going to take a look at it today. If I canāt make head or tails of it (which is likely, as Iām a very beginner when it comes to understanding BHAVs), Iāll be putting in a request with a Simmer-friend who doesnāt do Tumblr but who DOES do BHAVs. Iām sure she can wrangle it, when she has a bit of time, and Iāll share what she comes up with if she doesnāt do so herself.

Some of the sky dome things have distant terrain at the bottom of them and I think it helps.
O RLY???? Iāll have to hunt some down, see if theyāll work as needed... Thanks for the tip!

Where can I find this nobathroomdishes mod?
If you havenāt already found it for yourself, it (and all of Pescadoās mods) is here on this alphabetical list:Ā http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/ffs/al/hacks/Ā (Thatās assuming you have AL, which Iām pretty sure you have. :) )
penig replied to your photoset āIn which iCad disguises edges of the world successfully and...ā
Could you pile some upside down clouds there, for fog?
Well. you canāt place cloud boxes upside-down, but they can be placed underwater, where the terrain is lowest. Perhaps I can finagle it so that the clouds generate and sit just on top of the water. Only problem is my game doesnāt seem to like me modifying the terrain at the edges of the world; it tends to crash. But if I canāt find the sky globes olivesims mentioned or if they donāt work as Iād want, I might give that a try, yes. Thanks for the idea. :)

As for sims not washing their hands after going...
Sorry, replying to a reblog addition cuts off most of what you said. :) For readers: simblrcorner pointed out that Sims washing their hands after using the toilet replenishes the bit of hygiene loss they get from using a toilet. Which is true. So, yeah, itās not entirely useless, but for me...Well, my Sims tend to live scheduled lives. They shower/bathe every day either when they get up or before they go to bed and this gets them through a normal day without needing to bathe again (Unless theyāve done something like going jogging or visiting the gym, after which they need a shower, but thatās to be expected), no matter how many times they use the toilet. So...Yeah, still not seeing a need for my Sims to wash their hands. I do like realism in my game, yes, but Iām also pragmatic about things. If something doesnāt have a tangible purpose like increasing skills or markedly replenishing a motive or maintaining relationships or improving their crafting or something really useful like that, then Iād rather my Sims be doing something that DOES do one of those things. :) Hand-washing just doesnāt qualify, for my purposes.

It's definitely better to use ColourLovers and BackgroundLabs since they expressly allow reuse of their stuff for non-commercial purposes; Spoonflower's stuff is all rights reserved so it's illegal to use, though no-one really cares. (Whenever a site doesn't say "You can use this stuff!" it is all rights reserved, whether or not there's a copyright notice on the website)
Oh, thatās good to know! Iāll use patterns from these sites from now!
