here's something I needed badly in my game: string lights with glow effect
(..and moderate polycount

Flickering String Lights cost 45 S
the file includes two shades: plain gold and multicolor,
each in two animated variations: subtle flicker and crazy blink
Still String Lights cost 44 S
non-animated, four recolors included
Both can be found in Buy Mode/Lighting/Wall Lamps.
Note: the thumbnails seem almost empty, I didn't manage to replace it.
If you have Apartment Life, you can shift these and place on fences etc.

Merry Xmas and Happy New Year!



GUID used:
0xC6F92570, 0xFFE2B033
There's a very slight chance somebody generated the same GUID (mesh object's unique ID) for The Sims 2 creation at some point.
If you put two custom objects with the same GUID in the game files, only one of them works.
As always, remember to check if new objects you put in your folders show up in the game.

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.

About Me
* My Ko-fi
* If you get ERROR messages while unpacking .7z, .zip or .rar archives UPDATE YOUR 7-Zip or WinRAR . If you use other software, make sure it's not outdated!
* I don't take commissions
* I don't play The Sims 4 so I don't have any interest/experience in making convertions. If you'd like to convert my stuff, go ahead, just let me know if you share it anywhere (but no paysites! And no TSR).
