Luminous Island Counter

Some time ago I converted the Luminous Bar from TS4 and was happy for a while, until I noticed there wasn't a single counter to pair it up with that didn't look terrible. So naturally I had to make an island counter to match (terrible decision as counters are the actual worst.)

The Luminous Island Counter is - as it says on the tin - an island counter to match the aforementioned bar.

It has one fully recolorable preset and 8 others taken from the original TS4 recolors and made as an overlay.
2 channels; first preset fully recolorable, other 8 have the color/light up part non-recolorable and the black/dark part recolorable.

Has proper base, corner and different left and right pieces all in the same package.


I've uploaded both a S3pack and Package versions - install only one

The package version does the texture thing as you can see in the pic below. All you need to do however is just re-cast it and it's as good as new. This is the one I'm using as 1) after compressing it myself it's nearly half in size compared to the s3pack and 2) the Launcher is the root of all evil. In the end both work so it's up to your personal preference.




I've listed it as BG compatible even tho it's cloned from a SHT counter and (even more bizarrely) shows up with a LN icon in my game. It's been tested in a game without both of these EPs and it showed up fine. If you however find anything weird/missing, please let me know so I can update the requirements info accordingly.

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

Install Instructions

Quick Guide:

1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.

For Package files:

1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Files^wiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).

For Sims3Pack files:

1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).


Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
