Hi!
It took me a while to prepare, but here it is. Four sets, 48 lights, split into two packs.
All base game compatible, and with reasonable poly-count.
Each pack contains a collection file - to be placed in Collections folder,
or directly in Downloads folder.
15.04.2023: Eight lights from Glass & Brass Set have been converted for The Sims 4 by remysa, you can find those [here] .
Instructions for Mac users:
Note: Radiance Lighting Mod users, apparently that mod changes the way how floor lamp light looks in the game.
I've edited two floor lamps from G&B set to emit brighter, warmer light. Look for the file in the comments section (bottom of page 3).
Modernist Lamps Collection
Includes two very similar sets. Lamps from Retro Lights Set emit warm, yellowish light.
Lamps from Cool Lights Set emit cold white light (that works well with bright recolors).
Retro Lights Set:
Retro Ball-Wand Sconce is a master mesh.
Retro Ball Sconce
Retro Hemisphere Sconce
Retro Quatrefoil Sconce
- all cost 282 S
Buy Mode/Lighting/Wall Lamps
Retro Ball Pendant Light - 538 S
Buy Mode/Lighting/Ceiling Lamps

Buy Mode/Lighting/Table Lamps
..And two small additions:
Power cord for wall lamps
Longer power cord for wall lamps (new!)
- both costs 5 S - a low poly mesh, cord with a switch and a plug.
Found in Buy Mode/Lighting/Miscellaneous, each file includes recolors.
The shorter cord will be useful if you can shift wall lamps
(but you can also use OMSP to place it on end-tables etc).
I use these to transform base game wall lights into bedside lamps.
The second pack:Vintage Lamps Collection Also contains two sets.
GameRoom Set:

Notice:
I've generated random GUIDs for these items.
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.

I recommend you get collection files, note how many lamps you've downloaded
and make sure it all shows up in each collection folder.
I've made all the 3D meshes aside from round Wall Lamp, that borrows parts and shape from Tiffany Lamp by Maxis.
Most of these were inspired by lamps I've seen on internet etc. Fantastical mini-set is my own design.
I still have a few lamps in my WIP folder.. But for now, I've switched to plumbing

Instructions for Mac users:
It's most likely that some of these lamps will not work for you.
You need to download new meshes and replace the problem lamps.
Replacement meshes had to be simplified and don't look exactly like the originals,
but hopefully won't cause any issues
Modernist Lamps:
Cool Lights Set: CoolDeskLamp,
Retro Lights Set: Retro Floor Lamp.
These two are not master meshes, so you can either replace or remove both
from original collection and the rest should work just fine.
Vintage Lamps:
Gameroom Set:
Gameroom 3-shade lamp - this one is a master and needs to be replaced!
Replace or remove the following:
Gameroom - GameTable Hanging Lamp
Gameroom - Desk Lamp
G&B Set:
Antique Billiard Lamp - master mesh, needs to be replaced.
Replace or remove the following:
Bell Pendant Light
Berry Pendant Light
BlownGlass Pendant Light
Hanging Lantern
Pyramid Floor Lamp
Why did these lamps crash the game on Mac? It seems that macs have trouble handling lamps
that contain many additional subsets, and simply can't stand extra subsets that use material definitions with blend mode on,
(transparency).
Thanks go to Muridae, who identified the problem meshes and did the testing.
