That sounds really fun @simsample ! I would love to see screenshots of that when it's up and running :D

I'll have to build it first! (I have him in a new hood with some of @Andrewgloria 's sims)

Not so much something I've discovered as something I've just rediscovered, when looking out clothes for Hans Moltke to send to @simsample. In his wardrobe Hans has some "Thomas the Tank Engine" undies by Birdgurl, that I downloaded on 5th December 2012, six days after I started Simming. I wondered if her stuff was still available. It is! Her website on Blogspot is here, I don't think she's still posting, but there are lots of nice clothes there -- especially for children and toddlers. I've just downloaded some school separates for children and teens. Her downloads seem to be on Box, so remember to change "www" to "app" if you have problems downloading them.

If you like spiders and you really want them in game, Frac has created a silk-weaving set of them over at PBK:

(of course this is dependent on other files as with everything she has created.)

Wow, the Titanic!
https://modthesims.info/d/693769/rms-titanic.html

Someone on YouTube found a lost/unused track for The Sims 2, composed by Jerry Martin:



Sounds pretty nice! 👍 It even reminds of The Sims 3's music; would've been quite fitting for Map View. 👌

Sounds like it could be something from SimCity as well!

That is adorable. I was massively obsessed with Titanic back when the movie released. I still remember playing a custom made level featuring the ship in LittleBigPlanet--it was so epic it tanked the frame rate.

I found this old thread today, about extracting the christmas music from the game files: https://direct.modthesims.info/show...popover_5667050
Do you want to know what's so awesome about it? Someone already extracted the files and uploaded them! Thank you very, very much!
Now I'm gonna terrorize all my sims with Funky the snowman-music when they go christmas shopping on my community lots...

Ooh, that was me! You're very welcome!

I was so annoyed that they patched the car honk Jingle Bells out!

I didn't know there were more than one song, I probably never made it through the first one (I've been building christmas themed community lots the last couple of days and it has been bothering me that Funky is always greyed out in the catalogue. Thanks again )

Hello custom content fans, I don't know if any of you noticed, but Modthesims has a brand new section.

As many of you will have seen, Neptun7878 is one of the brilliant people who answers a lot of our WCIF questions. They have also posted a lot of threads to correlate related items of CC, themes such as sports kits and content related to jurisprudence.

So I asked nicely, and HugeLunatic made a new section especially for the lists of custom content, and Neptun7878's threads are being moved there.

These will hopefully be very useful to us all, alongside the existing Custom Content Lists that we have (which don't contain images).

And of course, you can all create new threads there, as well as add to the existing threads.

Please please attach the images to the post, instead of using hosting sites! You can still post attached images inline. This will ensure that everyone in the world who uses MTS can see the images, and that they will exist for as long as the posts do.

Forum rules are as always in a sticky post at the top of the forum, the image posting guidelines are a little out of date, please please attach images to your post.

Oh, would that thread with all the freezer bunny stuff be the type of thing to put there? Or do we need to have pictures of everything?

There's also the making the game more difficult thread--there was a lot of good mods linked in that one. Oh and the Chris Hatch thread! Would that be the sort of thing to post?

Yes, I'm planning to make a thread for the freezerbunny stuff (I didn't want to transfer the entire thread as was asking for grilled cheese too, I really think they deserve seperate threads!). I won't have time for a while to do that, so if anyone else wants to start a freezerbunny thread in the mean time, feel free!

The Chris Hatch stuff is more of a creator resource than a themed thing, so I would say leave it as-is. And the make the game difficult thread is quite broad, I'm not sure it's really a theme, as it would apply to lots of different types of game. But obviously, if you would like to make a thread there about that, do so- it's open for all to post as long as it's within the rules on the sticky posts.

Look at these lovely painting recolours by JodelieJodelie - I'm going to need ALL the alien ones for Strangetown! There are sets for plantsims, witches, servos, bigfeet etc too.

And another find that's just the thing for my low-tech hood: the Parsimonious Imperial Lamps set edited by katatty to give off a more useful amount of light. I used these in many of my lots and was getting frustrated that they were so dim - how handy to find the edited version before I'd gone through all my community lots to replace them with something else!
