I normally don't do this, but please do not download this CC pack. It not only has some of my default hairs which I explicitly asked people not to reupload, but entire 4t2 packs, clothes, mods and what look like bodyshop installations.
I've seen this before but not at this magnitude. I don't know which version of the hair defaults they nabbed, what mods they loaded...
Trying not to be a hater, but with no credit and potentially harmful concoctions of cc, I'd recommend to find the original sources which was predominantly items on LordCrumps.com, @deedee-sims, @mdpthatsme, @tvickiesims, @applewatersugar, @rascalcurious, etc
Lol Linda didn't JUST namedrop DeeDee and shit on her content. She downloaded ALL OF DEEDEE'S CONTENT on tumblr looking for stuff that had too big of textures and only found ONE ITEM. She decided to put Deedee on blast for that one issue.
She's going through free creator's stuff in order to find anything she can point out as flawed and say "THESE FREE CREATORS ARE THE REASON WHY YOU HAVE PINK FLASHING!! ONLY ME AND MY PERMA-PAYWALL FRIENDS KNOW HOW TO MAKE CONTENT!! SO BUY FROM US!!"
I guess they're not making enough money rn so they have to whine and bitch about people who provide their stuff for free.
Mean-fucking-while, Linda and her friends are taking meshes from GorillaGorillaGorilla, Bank42, Rimmings, Backtrack CC and MAMY other sims 4 CC creators, converting them to sims 2 and making a profit off of OTHER PEOPLE'S MESHES AND TEXTURES.
They're like "wahhh making good conversions is hard!! I deserve to be payed for the work I do!"
But you know what's even harder? Making models from scratch! If you and your paywall buddies want to understand why people are pissed off at you, Linda, TRY MAKING MESHES FROM SCRATCH YOURSELF. It's not fucking easy. You are making money off of other people's models+textures, including bodyshapes, clothes, furniture and more. This is someone else's hard work you're making a profit off of.
Also. The "pink flashing" is just a fucking excuse. She's like "I have mine and my friends' content in my game and I never experience pink flashing!"
Yeah? Well i guess what? I have content from deedee, fakeblood, R13 and other creators she decides to shit on and I don't experience pink-flashing either! I don't even experience crashing. This is because pink-flashing has nothing to do with high-poly meshes or big textures! I know people who play with no cc at all and get pink-flashing. We still don't know the cause of it.
I bet if Linda got a different laptop, she'd be experiencing pink-flashing left-and-right, because I do have some of her shit from and GOD ARE THEY HIGH POLY AS FUCK.
On another note.. Sorry about the rant; I had to get it out of my system because I don't have a public tumblr blog, but I've been using tumblr to find cc for years, and I've been following this Linda drama since like 2020. It still makes me fucking lividd.
OMFG You're KIDDING. She downloaded ALL of her stuff just to try and be a bitch? Amazing. I knew that she was the worst but I had no idea it was like that.
It's so funny because back in like '21 when we were having all that drama about Sunny targeting pay creators I was always like they suck but honestly live and let pirate, you know? If someone's stupid enough to pay for this shit, let them. I never had a problem as long as they didn't try to impede on pirating. Get your bag, girl.
But what exactly is Linda trying do? Make people feel like paying for content is the only reasonable way to get it?
hi i was wondering if you have checked Doons99p's cc page (she said that she would post something like this on her blog but since much of her stuff got deleted after her hiatus, that page doesn't exist anymore). do you have some files from that page? (and if it's possible do you have her series Nostonia downloaded cuz it was also deleted :(((()
I gotta be honest, I have never until now even heard of them so I’m afraid I don’t have any of their content, but maybe somebody who follows this blog has something or can point where to find something?
My first finished beard is now uploaded!! YAY!! About the tutorial, it's already done and written, I just need to make a thread on MTS and upload the necessary files for it! I should be able to upload and share it tomorrow or after that!
Hello! It's that time of the year again where I beg older Sims players who used TheSims2.ea.com to please upload any content they may still have on their drives. We currently have two samples (1) (2) of exchange content from TS2 (altogether about 3 gbs worth).
If interested in helping out - please DM me and we can talk about options for uploading. Thank you!

SUMMARY
“In need of a funkier, more futuristic skyline? The EP11 Kitbash Series (Simmons, 2022-2023) makes neighborhood assets from Sims 3: Into the Future (EA/Maxis, 2013) (and other EPs) available for Sims 2. Sets include single-tile shells and other items you’ll be able to plop on lots. Then, build above, below, in, and around them to create useable structures. Shell challenge anyone?”
Here is a set of industrial storage containers from Oasis Landing (Sims 3: Into the Future, EA/Maxis, 2013) as decorative lot objects. They work well on industrial and/or factory lots and will go down with walls. The Storage Cylinder has space for up to four 1-tile doors and/or full-height windows. Otherwise, cover the openings!
DETAILS
Requires all EPs/SPs.
Cost: §1100 | Build > Architecture
Storage Sphere 001 and the “-RECOLOR” files are BOTH REQUIRED for recolors to work – this set includes 30 color options. You also need the BB_Niche1_Master (BuggyBooz, 2012) and Element TXTR Repository from the Repository Pack (Simmons, 2023).
ITEMS
Storage Cylinder (~23x23 Tiles) (3248 poly)
5-Story Storage Spheres 001 and 002 (3004 poly) - click on the BASE of Storage Sphere 1 to recolor it.
Storage Filler Material (638 poly) – make sure it is facing in the same direction as Sphere 001 and placed on the same tile.
**Poly counts are semi-high due to meshing issues but limiting placement to 1-2 per lot should minimize the risk of pink flashing. Mind your system settings!

BUILDING TIPS (suggested methods)
Build an octagon (20 tiles across, 19 tiles front-to-back) with sides of alternating lengths of 6 and 7 tiles respectively. Going clockwise, the front side should be 7 tiles across, the next should be 6 tiles across…and so on.
Once you’ve got 8 sides, add doors and/or windows to the center tile on the sides which are 7 tiles across. Use these entrances to get sims in and out of the building. Finally, place the Industrial Storage Cylinder on the tile directly in front of the front door/window. Add other details as needed.
For the Industrial Storage Spheres, you can build a functional catwalk between them. Place at least two, making sure the sides with the opening in the top gate and floor supports are facing one another.
Using columns, walls, etc., build up to the sixth floor, then add floor tiles and fencing.

part one of a suggestion from guppy over on the simscord! the wedding hijab from ts4's gp11: my wedding stories game pack converted to ts2, with 2 addons! there are 3 variants in total: the original ts4 one, one without the veil, and one with neither the veil nor crown ✨
all 12 recolors of each hijab are binned as hairs, with 3 families each. swatch under the cut! they are smooth-boned, animated, etc., with the highest polycount (the og ts4 version) being a cute 4388 polys!
DOWNLOAD: SFS | MF 🧕
credits go to ea/maxis for the original ts4 meshes & textures! 💓
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
the with veil (og) wedding hijab is only for yf-ef, whereas the others are for tf-ef. i was going to do tf but then remembered the blatant issue with teen marriages for young muslim girls in my own country (malaysia) and just... couldn't do it. the others aren't really marriage-themed so i did them for tf too, but if you want the og to be for teens you can do it yourself
SWATCH
if there are any issues that you find with this set, please don't be afraid to let me know! happy simming, and when you download this, do keep in mind,
Extra-files (for cc creators): download only mesh + volatile base texture here or here, I included the .dds file of the retexture in case it can be useful for someone :)
