A random assortment of clothes for children, all edits and default replacements of outfits made by other people. All have fat morphs and are low poly.

Maxis-match default replacement meshes for all the CU Maxis clothing, in separate files so you can pick and choose. They are mesh-only (GMDC) and therefore are compatible with texture-only default replacements as well as recategorizers.

My goal with these was to rework the fat morphs and to iron out some kinks on the normal morphs. I didn't try to alter the fashion. This is my edit of cubodynaked, which I used as reference for everything else:

All the CU clothing from the Ultimate Collection is covered, except cubodydragon because it's ✨flawless✨ already. Default replacements for cutopnaked & cubottomnaked are also included (the meshes used when sims are nude).

About the separates: I took care to match the waist seam with the Maxis tops & bottom meshes so my default replacement separates will work with any CC separates out there.

Some comparison pictures and further details under the cut.

it's been a while since i shared some content! have at it!

this is an extremely old dress from liana on a mesh by ulkrhsn. i removed the belt and recolored the denim in pastels instead. i also recolored the shoes black, added morphs, and me and fia ( @dark-side-princess-sims) converted it to four bodyshapes! these have been bsok'd too so that they show up pinned to the front of the catalog sorted by bodyshape! i did dummy thicc and marta xl and fia did dlassic pinup and ren gal.

the undershirt is not by me but i put patterns on it. i know i got it from mts but i cannot find it now to give credit. if anyone recognizes it please let me know, i absolutely do not take ownership of it.

this dress uses a texture bundle, so all recolors use the same texture file to reduce file bloat. you can safely delete the recolor packages or meshes for any shapes or colors you don't want, but do not delete the texture bundle. these also come with smooth hands options, make sure to delete one version of each bodyshape's mesh depending on which hands you want to use.

250 Followers Gift - Build Mode

I somehow managed to get 250 Followers. Time for another followers gifts. This gift is full of build mode stuff. As usual I included previews, swatches, meshs and compressed everything.

First I got 20 recolors of @fracturedmoonlight's Fairytale Romance Redux Set. 10 recolors of the frame, 5 of the window glass and I also recolored the doors in AL wood colors.

The next part are 16 recolors of a wooden plank texture by Kalponic Studios turned into a floor.

I also made 21 rather random recolors of Wood For Sims 2 barn stairs. I used @zerographic's PSD to make them.

The last gift are 20 brick walls made from 9 different textures.

Installing Scriptorium for Legacy Users

So you're a Sims 2 Legacy player who wanted to install some modular stairs? Maybe a lighting mod? You installed Scriptorium and you enter your game and suddenly your foundation is missing or crashes your game whenever you try to place it. Or maybe your pools and rooves have fences in them?

(images sourced from Lazy Duchess Discord server)

WTF did I do?

You've broken your script files!

Currently they look like this:

When they should look like this:

What do the script files do?

They give the game instructions and settings for certain build items that are generated by the game engine such as walls, foundations, pools, modular stairs, fireplaces, rooves, awnings and more. Lighting also uses scripts for some things. Some of these items require the scripts to display in catalog or at all.

How did this happen??

So i've seen two different ways, firstly, the auto installer installs in the wrong location. So what does the player do? They moves the files into the correct location.

The issue with this is the script files that Scriptorium creates when it can't find your game files are missing ALL of the original script lines. Then when you replace your existing script files with these, you basically are replacing your script files with a blank one (minus the Scriptorium lines).

Second way, when manually installing, the player deletes the contents of the original script files and replaces it with the Scriptorium lines.

This results in the same outcome shown in the example script.

Why does this affect only Legacy players?

Legacy uses different file paths. Scriptorium was last updated after M&G came out. The auto installer was made to work with the discs in both their original and compilation file paths. For example, Double Deluxe\Base or Sims 2, or Fun with Pets\SP9 etc. All other versions up until this point have used these paths so they never experienced this issue. EA decided to do something different this time and go by EP/SP numbers. So the installer gets confused and places them in the wrong place.

How do I fix this??

A few options, reinstall or repair your game, or replace the broken script files with the ones below. Place them in your C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Legacy\Base\TSData\Res\Catalog\Scripts folder. You may need to delete the files first that you are replacing and cut and paste the new ones in.

But I still want to use Scriptorium?

Once you have replaced your broken scripts, follow these manual instructions that I have modified from the original Scriptorium post for Legacy users.

Go to C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Legacy\Base\TSData\Res\Catalog\Scripts

And open the fireplaces.txt and copy and paste the line below at the bottom of this file without deleting the existing text.

wildInclude "Scriptorium_Fireplaces*.*"

Then save.

If you have issues with saving due to permissions, cut and paste the files to desktop while you are editing them and move them back after

Next open modularstairs.txt and add the text below

wildInclude "Scriptorium_ModularStairs*.*"

Then open walls.txt and add the text below

wildInclude "Scriptorium_Walls-Fences-Arches*.*"

While remaining in your Scripts folder, Create 3 new folders and call them

Scriptorium_Fireplaces Scriptorium_ModularStairs Scriptorium_Walls-Fences-Arches

Select these 3 folders and right click and choose copy.

Now go to Documents\EA Games\Sims 2 Legacy\Downloads (if you do not have a Downloads folder, create one)

Then right click and press paste shortcut

If you want to use custom lights as well, follow these steps

If your lighting.txt is also empty, this is a copy of the original version

Go to C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Legacy\Base\TSData\Res\Lights

Open lighting.txt and add

wildInclude "Scriptorium_CustomLights*.nlo"

While still in the Lights folder Create a folder called Scriptorium_CustomLights If you already have a folder called CEP3_CustomLights, rename it to Scriptorium_CustomLights

Right click on this folder and copy it

Then go to Documents\EA Games\Sims 2 Legacy\Downloads and paste shortcut

And you are all done :D

Bottom only dresses are a great way for me to use old (and not so old) meshes I really like. AND, they give me a great canvas to put all of my old collected CC textures on!

Lush Knot Wraps - Painting Recolors

Some lazy CC dump will be taking over every Monday! These are recolors of A Stroke by Alfred D'Simvo which comes with Nightlife. I wasn't planning on uploading this until I finished my Wall Hanging Decor Database, but I don't see myself finishing it any time sooner, so…

Download recolors: (SFS / Box)

Full swatch on pic. The recolors look brighter in game.
