Plumb Bob Keep Birthday Screenshot Contest

So my earliest memory is from my first time playing any sims game, it was sims 2 for console, I think I was 8 years old, and I think it was near my birthday too, or was easter, the memory is kind of fuzzy in those regards I just had got the copy, and I start playing, I think I went to free mode first and foremost, and I try to recreate the characters of this anime called Kaleido Star, which was airing at the time in a specific nacional kids channel, anyways, I don't think any of them look like the characters, but, long story short, they were all living in a single room house cubicle, and sims died and it was an overall mess, details are kinda vague on that. But I guess I still wanted more.

The earliest memory of the sims you have. On your mark, get set...go!

Help Needed - Sunken Object Mesh

Guys, I need help from object creators and meshers - I’m trying to convert this sunken fireplace from Syboulette.

My problem is that it’s a bit under the ground level but I have no idea how to deal with it. Apparently I need a mesh mask but I don’t know how to make one. I found no tutorials on this topic.

I also tried opening up the sunken base game jacuzzi but saw nothing special in that mesh, yet somehow it makes a ground cutout…

Do you have any ideas on this please? 🥺

The Keep and Privacy Concerns

In light of the recent debate about AI scraping of websites for images, we at Plumb Bob Keep would like to publicly state that we, as a site, will never sell anyone's data for advertisement or AI purposes, ever. We also do not use any tracking technology at all. We are committed to our members' privacy.

Having said that, we cannot influence what our current webhost may or may not do. To our knowledge, they are not selling any of our data, but we cannot dictate to them. We are working towards moving the Keep to a new webhost, with more control over our content, but it will take time.

If you are concerned about your pictures being used by AI bots without your permission, there are two programs that are being recommended: Glaze, a defensive program that puts an imperceptible layer over your art, and Nightshade, an offensive program that make the AI unable to identify the images in the work. You can use them together, as well. Both require large computer resources (Glaze more than Nightshade) - one person compared it to running Minecraft - they do not do well with transparency, and they do take time to process the images, but they are what the community has available right now.

If you see this in your Ask box, DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR EMAIL. THEY ARE TRYING TO HACK YOUR ACCOUNT.

I’ve already seen another simblr receive this so I thought I’d signal boost the moron trying to hack people’s accounts.

Reblog if you can say you have never sent hate or "go kill youself" messages to people . I want to see how many kind hearted people there are in tumblr .

A Gift for the 20th Anniversary of The Sims 2

Well, this would normally be the part where I just uploaded a picture of what it is and a link to the download, but I decided to bring back me going on verbose tirades, if not for just a tiny bit This game has been in my life for very long time, 20 years huh, next year the game will legally be allowed to drink in all countries, xD So what did I decide to make to celebrate this special location, something related to Iconic things like the freezer bunny, llamas, cowplants? No, I decided to celebrate what could have been.

This is an early screenshot for The Sims 2 prior to release, for a while, we knew that at a point in development, jewelry was added to the game, only for it to be completely dropped before the game went gold.

What we can see in this screenshot, is what I suspect to be where you would be able to buy said jewelry in a community lot, this being one of the two pictures where you can see said displays (The other picture having slightly worse visibility of said displays)

I've always wanted to see these displays in full glory, but considering how much we've digged out of the game files already, nothing related to these displays remains in the game files

So, I decided to try my luck to recreate them

I knew coming into this project that they would never bee a 1 for 1 recreation (proportions might be wrong, can't really see how the jewelry in the displays looks like in detail), so I decided to at least recreate the overall shape of the stands and fill them with jewelry that ended up shipping with Boy Voyage, and a bit from the Prism Art Studio jewelry display as well for good measure. I am happy with my work, but feel free to try and fill the stands in your own way, that was decidedly my worse struggle with this, just give me credits.

and now without further ado! Download Here - Neocities

And Happy 20th Birthday The Sims 2!!!

So, I went the extra mile to turn my disc into an ISO and uploaded the contents of it to the Internet Archive... I did that at least a month ago, but I only remembered to upload it yesterday Like I said in the description, the installers are in Portuguese, but that's about it, the programs got barely any language, so If you want to try at least Fashion Factory, you can give it a go https://archive.org/details/fashion-styling-factory

'the sims 2 fashion factory'

was this a thing? i have no memory of it but if anyone could provide some info

the description says:

A new tool offering easy and fast creation of your own fashion collection and accessories for your Sims. Importing things into the game itself is easier than the blink of an eye. In addition, you can also design your own tattoo and know the latest trends and clothing styles.
