The limited rock variety in Build Mode hinders our artistic expression in The Sims 3. That's about to change, with @simaddix's rock retexturing, offering 75 new options! These textures can be combined with the original sets, expanding the game's rock catalog!

The rocks above were cloned from the sets linked below, and had their textures reworked to match the classic rocks from The Sims 3:

-Formation Rocks -Forest Rocks -Mossy Rocks -Landscape Stones -Landscape Rocks

This set was authorized by @simaddix, who by the way takes all the credit for the hard work that went into developing each of these rocks. My role here was to create an alternative version to match the classic rocks textures already available in the build mode of The Sims 3. Thank you Simaddix for the permission, and for shared your amazing work with all us!! <3

That said again, you can combine this set with all the sets linked above. I hope you Enjoy!!

This is the farthest I've ever gotten on terrain painting and I'm honestly proud of myself! Would like to get farther but for now I'm gonna geek out over having snow that isn't a giant blob, lol!

Also, finished tweaking my trees and have several textures for both trees and bushes/shrubs! Getting packages together and then I'll be able to really dig in on other types of foliage!

Also.... more rocks... because they never end. Ever.

I also made fixes on walls/towers and applied a different texture. The last one was very dark and added in with the weather files it looked a bit too bleak for my liking.

Lots and lots of custom assets for this world but so far I'm loving it! So excited to see this take shape and come to life!

I missed my timeline last night (what can I say, real life takes priority) but I did finish the separated grasses! I will be working some more on the mixed grasses here soon, I couldn't quite get the right look I wanted with them so some experimentation will commence. They'll be labeled as mixed so you can tell what is what when I'm done.

But here we go! REAL grass for TS3!!!

There are 24 packages in total. 12 large fields and 12 small.

The biggest changes I made since I last posted are alpha fixes, but I made some edits to a few of the grasses that were less realistic. These two were the main culprits that I wanted to improve.

The rest have had tiny tweaks but mostly remained the same(:

I hope you enjoy these! Feel free to tag me if you use them in your games, I love seeing what y'all do! <3

@rachel-homeanddesign-sims recently messaged me asking about the sunflower fields I tested [forever ago]. I wanted to get them out to you, and thank you for your lovely comments!

These were quickly packaged with the original image I created long ago, but nonetheless here they are. I hope you enjoy them in your game!

I will probably be pretty quiet for a while, we have been extremely busy lately and I haven't had time to touch my projects much less start any others. I hope things will calm down a bit and I'll be able to return with some new/finished stuff for all of my wonderful followers. Until then, I hope y'all are doing well! <3
