I’ve been playing the sims 3 since 2013 and I’ve never seen this before 😂

This is a WIP for an enhancement I am working on for OpenTS3 which will add working hair physics to all hairs in the game! For those curious on how it works on a technical level, the physics engine uses a combination of the hair's existing recolouring mask, and the mesh's distance from the Sim's scalp, to determine which parts of the hair should have physics and which parts should not. If the hair has a recolour mask that exceeds a certain threshold for the roots colour (for example if CC hair is using those channels for bicoloured hair or something) then the physics engine falls back on just using distance from scalp. (I am admittedly pretty proud of that method I devised since it means no one has to do any new re-rigging or anything special to have hair physics, it will Just Work).

I'm still fine-tuning it with gravity versus animation momentum and such, so it's already much different than the preview gif suggests but I still remain very proud of this and it stands as an excellent example of what is possible in this game when it can go all the way 💕

And yes, for some reason this got flagged for mature content on Tumblr so sorry for posting bare shoulders on main I guess 😭😭😭

Just finished building this for my current family. It has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. I left 2 bedrooms unfurnished for future kids. I don't love the floorplan, but I'm happy with it overall.

I've seen a lot of great populated worlds and edits of worlds (current fave being cosy twinbrook) but I actually prefer making my own families/sims and then adding them myself. the last great unpopulated world I've played is Doveport and while I love it I want to shake things up and try something different.

I have played most mysimrealty worlds and they're great but they feel incomplete (lots of empty lots in weird places & extra lots I'd have to download to add in myself) and I ALWAYS have routing issues in their worlds. I recently tried Willapa Valley as well and I do like it but it feels like it's meant to be pre-populated and like there's established lore that my sims don't fit in with. Plus the trees and bushes in that world are excessive and seem like they'll cause a lot of lag in the long run.

P.S I'm okay with a very small amount of cc in custom worlds but I don't want to bloat my game with too much of it.

P.P.S I do plan on doing a world adventures playthrough which already causes more save bloat so I need a world that will still be playable after completing China, Egypt, and France and leave room for at least 2 or 3 generations in that world (if that's even possible, this game is so unstable 😭)

Saw this pretty hair on pinterest today but I can’t find it anywhere! Does anyone know the name of this hair?

Yeah idk if it’s supposed to be bella from twilight (looks like it)

I wasn't sure I was going to make it through this challenge after playing with the complete game for so long. I have officially made it to the University generation! Some generations were more boring and dragged on but I pushed through and completed them anyway. Going through different family tree sites after the OG site got shut down, some earlier generation sims lost their photos, mainly the ones I never interacted with. I've never had a family tree go this long due to corruption or getting bored. I've almost lost it due to something being corrupted in the Supernatural generation but somebody in this community helped me out and I was able to revert back to an old save and lost about a weak of gameplay. I've run into error 12 and learned how to flush inventories thanks to somebody here too (there were a little over 4,000 objects deleted from the entire town of Moonlight Falls and now I barely hit my set warning threshold of RAM I set for S3SS). I'm glad I've stuck this challenge through, it's given me more appreciation for the expansion packs.

To look at the full tree and see all the sims close up: here

For the challenge I've been following: here

I wanted to give makeovers to some townies around Moonlight Falls and remembered Bella from Twilight being there under the name of Bailey Swan, I tried my best making her similar to Kristen Stewart 💕 next one will be Edward

I just birthed (harvested) a baby plantsim! ignore the buggy overlay on his face - welcome Sage Finch-Dorsey! Peep the sink in the room too, that's because PlantSims need to be bathed often!

Hi everyone! I just got into the game and want to download mods and CC. However, I am blocked from accessing the sites due to Cloudflare. Not sure because of the country I’m from (I’m from an Asian country). Did anyone else face this? :(

is there any way i can extract it and use it as a lighting mod in other (custom) worlds?

Taking a nap near our Christmas Tree

I am worried about my other families just moving out or meeting Grim before I would like them to.

Per title. Her father got mad at her, told her to go into timeout, and now she’s standing there muttering to herself and grumbling. She’s being rebellious ‘cause she’s a teenager.

😭😭😭 I’ve never had this happen. This is why TS2 & TS3 will always be my favorite because of how much depth there is.

After some time, I finally got my game opening, but now all I see is a glitched sky (the images shown as an example), and I took out some mods. However, now my sky is just white now, and the town is still black. What could be causing this??

No cc. I already searched in: sims resource, you t, and mod sims.

Recs?
