New map update! Yep I’m calling it the ‘village center’ now cause it sounds cute :) It’s been over 6 months since the last map I uploaded, and you can see the extra little area I’ve added in the upper right! The blank area next to that will be mainly residential.
Below the cut I’ll put a list of all the lots! I’ll include a link to lots that I’ve already showcased, and put lot names in italics if I haven’t decided on a name for it yet :)
This small tutorial is for anyone who's having trouble with the key commands of the much needed mod Sims 3 Decorator Tools by @omedapixel
Since it was hinted months(?) ago, I've been eagerly waiting for the release. And it didn't disappoint. One thing though, as I recently realised that it can cause confusion on non-US keyboard users.
for everyone with non US keyboards!! this is super helpful, thanks @id-element0 💜
Hello! I was so excited for your new mod it just won't work, either version. First none of the commands worked, and all of a sudden the option to select an object is not showing up and Idk why, I really want to use it. Any idea?
hi! i'm sorry it's not working for you :( here are some steps you can take -
This might resolve the issue completely!
Open the package with S3PE and then open the file called "Sims3.omedapixel.Decorating.Main" with Notepad.
Edit the line as shown in the picture to be "True"
Save and close everything and load up the game. When you switch in to Build/Buy mode, you sould get this message -
That means the mod is working!! If you DON'T get this message, then there must be a bigger problem and I'll need more information to help you troublshoot.
For my PC (Windows 10) it's done like this - Click on the bottom taskbar near the time and date, where it likely says ENG or whatever language your keyboard is currently in.
Select ENG US if it's there. Otherwise click 'Language Preferences' and in the next screen, add ENG US as a new language.
You can switch your keyboard language temporarily while you're playing the game.
If this still doesn't help, please message me directly off anon! It'll be much easier to work out the problem that way :) This goes for anyone having issues with S3DT!
HI! I saw your new mod .. S3DT and I’m like so impressed it’s so cool. I wouldn’t even imagine a world where we could have something like that in the sims 3. I’m new to the possibles of sims 3 modding but I know in the sims 4 you can quickly swap between swatches is that possible in the sims 3 or is there something that already does that and I’m messing it.
thanks so much! :) i could definitely add a hotkey that cycles through swatches/presets (idk if one already exists? i couldn’t find anything online but ea has so many lol)
would enough people be interested in something like this? i could add it to s3dt
I've been pretty quiet on here, but that doesn't mean I've stopped simming! First up I'd like to say thanks (and sorry!) to all the lovely people who've sent me messages :) I'm gonna try my best to reply to everyone asap!
For christmas I wanted to share something special - so here is the public release of the first version of my Decorating Tools mod (or S3DT)
Quick Description - This mod adds hotkeys to the game to allow you to move objects up/down, left/right and rotate in all directions, similar to T.O.O.L for TS4 PDF Guide included below!
To my wonderful patrons - thank you for your support <3 I feel bad that real life has gotten in the way of me delivering more content to you all, so I'll likely be closing it soon! If it's possible, I'll also refund the last couple of months due to my inactivity. Anyone who wants to can still donate to my Ko-Fi
MOD INSTRUCTIONS AND DOWNLOAD BELOW THE CUT
Oh no, I knew I’d forget some instructions 🤦♀️
1. All hotkeys can be changed to your liking in the TRIG file within the package
2. The height of raised/lowered objects are maintained when exporting lots/worlds. You do not need the mod installed, the objects will stay in place until you move them.
3. Rotated objects are NOT maintained when exporting lots, but are when exporting worlds. They will snap upright when placing the lot down. I’m looking into a workaround for this!
4. Objects still snap to slots, so I suggest using the cheat “disablesnappingtoslotsonalt true” while in testingCheats mode and then holding alt when decorating.

MOD INSTRUCTIONS AND DOWNLOAD BELOW THE CUT
Things are slowing down a bit with my Decorating Tools Mod, so I'm opening up recipe requests for patrons! I feel bad that I haven't been able to get any of the new features working yet for the mod, so I'd like to offer you guys something small to show my thanks for your support :)
this is a fun little replacement of the ITF projection wall! i now have a "whale theatre" in the tørsvall whale museum that sims can watch :)
i’m building in tørsvall again! not to be dramatic but i actually teared up a little when i opened up again for this first time in over a year lol
it’s so nice to feel excited about this little world again! the break i took was well needed though, i was feeling pretty burnt out and uninspired
so i’m updated a lot of the wall art and lots that i’ve already finished, because why not! i’ve also made a really cool stained glass window for the church, i’ll post pics soon! my favourite lot, the whale museum, is also getting a tiny facelift :) i’ve made something special for it too… 👀🐳
I enjoyed making the puffins so much that I created an island to house them. The Sims 3 is turning into an animal planet with the Get Wild Mod! @omedapixel check it out!
After making a bunch of medieval defaults, I'm finally back into modern gameplay! This is a set of defaults for the flowers sims can give each other as a romantic interaction, or buy from the grocery store.
I've let the game generate new thumbnails and included them in the package. I might have missed some, so if you see any that don't match the new meshes, let me know!
These require GENERATIONS (though i can make deco versions if anyone wants them!)
Enjoy :)
Fixed the invisible flower bouquet when performing the 'Give Flowers' animation. There is a seperate package in the download folder called 'omedapixel_DefaultRomanticFlowersProp' that needs to be kept seperate. Since it seemed to break when I merged them together, I would suggest NOT merging these using CCMagic or the like!
Sorry guys I'm a huge dumbass and forgot that i also updated the original package so that they would work together! The download link in the original post now leads to two files - omedapixel_DefaultRomanticFlowersProp.package omedapixel_DefaultRomanticFlowersVase.package
You'll need to REDOWNLOAD BOTH for these to work in your game! Sorry for the annoyance!

Note: Please ignore the whales and dolphins, they will be added in another future mod and still need some animation improvement.
this mod will still undergo some tweaks so that everything is great for launch! Until then, HOLY CRAP we will have Puffins!!!!

oh my god????? this is honestly breath taking, i can’t wait to make tørsvall more alive!!! i was gonna have just deco animals but this is soooo much better 😍
even if those whales aren’t finished, they also look incredible! i can’t wait for those too 😊
Hii!!! I hope your day’s going well ^_^…I know it’s still a bit early but I’ve already downloaded and installed your DR Romantic Flowers…and I love them!!..Thank You!!!
But there’s a slight Hiccup…don’t know if it’s just a me thing, but when my sims are giving each other the “BOUQUET” of flowers…it’s invisible…but the object, that is the one in the Vases, shows and works perfectly…But Yh IDK please help thank you 😖💕
oh no, that’s so weird! i definitely replaced the bouquets too, and it was working last time i checked! perhaps when i merged all the files together something got broken? i’ll take a look as soon as i get the chance :)
in the meantime you could try putting the package in your overrides folder and see if that helps? i’m so glad you like the (working) parts of the mod haha, thank you!! 💜

i had a random urge to make defaults of the flowers sims can gift to each other! i didn´t get pics of all the colours, but this version has all the same colours as the original (although i made the yellow have slightly pink edges cause it looks pretty haha)
i just need to fix the thumbnail! anyone know how i can do that? i'll upload these as soon as i've done that :)
also..... i may or may not be back in my tørsvall era... 👀
I'm making a litle CC-free build using the decorator mod and my debug objects! I've literally only done the garage so far but I'm having so much fun lol
This will be up for download as soon as it's finished! :)
