With the release of the Legacy collection, the original The Sims game has seen a resurgence in its modding scene. While much of the modding community is currently located in places like Tumblr or specialized sites such as Simblr.cc, most sites don't have the sort of infrastructure, history, or community that MTS does.
While other sites such as TSR had a section for The Sims, they've recently locked them and prohibited new submissions. Additionally, TSR has a history of being driven primarily by profit while MTS is almost entirely driven my fans. It seems wrong that one of the oldest, and most established, Custom Content aggregate sites doesn't have it's own dedicated section for The Sims as so much of the games' original custom content from the 2000s disappears.
MTS having its own section would make it one of the only custom content aggregate sites to have a functioning download section for the original game.
Hi TS2 community, I am very interested in learning more about the way pink flashing happens or doesn't happen in different people's games. I have put together this kinda fairly detailed survey as a Google Form that hopefully can shed more light on the issue.
If you are familiar with your computer and graphics settings, you can easily finish the survey in about 5 minutes. If you need to look a few things up, it could take 10-15.
If you had flashing with some settings and resolved it, please consider filling out the form twice - once describing your experience before you fixed it and again for after. If not, please just use your post-fix experience.
Please, please reblog as data is only as good as the breadth of its sample. A summary of the results are viewable to all upon completion of the survey and I am happy to share more detailed findings with the modding community, just let me know.
Oh this is absolutely a game changer on the task of mesh repositoring!
Repository Wizard
The Repository Wizard is a utility for automating the repository technique for objects and clothing.
Object Mode
This mode of the Repository Wizard automates the process described by HugeLunatic in their Repository Technique tutorial.
Clothing Mode
This mode of the Repository Wizard creates new re-colours for a new/modified mesh based on an existing mesh with its own set of re-colours.
This is NOT the simple approach to the repository method of linking the dependant's TXMT resource(s) to the donor's TXTR resource(s), but a new, more advanced, approach of linking via the 3IDR resource.
See the application’s web page for extensive details about both modes.
If you do not know what the repository technique is, or why you would want to use it, this application is not for you!
So, while my brain bloomed in Simming ideas, i came with this one! The Hibiscus is such a cute flower, wasted in a base-game hair that nowdays people rarely use.
Some important information:
- The flower was cloned from a bracelet, every acessory can be used, exept bracelets.
- It can be assigned to sims between Teen-Elder, Females only.
- It can be used on all clothing categories.
- It's compatible with atw Hat Sliders, so you can move around and make it fit on various hairstyles, make it bigger, or rotate it.
And withouth further ado, here's the Download link:

Hope you enjoy.

Happy 20th Birthday, The Sims 2! may we keep having fun for years to come!!
After weeks of email round robin where every tech support person knew something different. ^_^
It's back! For realz this time. With it's totally centered header if your browser is wide that I'll most likely never fix because I don't ever want to do this again.
A big thanks to everyone for their patience and support. I hope to never do this again.
All bookmarks should work. All redirects from old digitalperversion links should work. Feel free to let me know of any links not working. Unless it's cc stuff, then I probably not the one to ask.
ATS3 Update | Ilona’s Kitchen Accessories
Finally the last part of the Ikea kitchen, with accessories, and tiny pieces of furniture, like kitchen cart or step tool (both usable at surfaces). Next time, I’ll probably make the bathroom. And then… well, it might depend on how you’re fed up or not with that theme! ;D
Update of the Eco-Café Counter
Silly me had tested that counter with the only sink that caused no problem with, but with any other sinks, ugly pieces of the counter showed up. It’s now fixed. I’m sorry about that!
You can redownload directly the counter from here.
I hope you’ll enjoy! :)
Constantly, the amount of projects I have in the back burner is astounding, and some could be considered finished... I just never bothered to give them proper screenshots Add that the fact I'm in a constant state of rebuilding my downloads folder... and by rebuild i mean start a new one.
If you already participated, thank you so, so much. The survey has been revised as of mid-November to add more questions and will now probably take at least 30 minutes to complete in full. It is detailed. You should not attempt to complete it on mobile away from your simming computer.
The survey is for ALL TS2 players, whether you have pink flashing in your game or not.
I now anticipate releasing the analysis report in early January 2024. For your data to meaningfully contribute to this analysis, a response deadline of December 15, 2023 is being established.
DM me if you already took the original survey, want to answer the additional (follow-up) questions, and haven't already heard from me.
PLEASE REBLOG for maximum reach, even if you already responded or reblogged my original solicitation for responses.
THANKS EVERYONE!!

Thank God 2 Still remains in pristine condition *knocks on wood so EA doesn't get any ideas*, despite the fact Microsoft is making harder and harder to run legacy software, where there's a will there's a way. As for the state of 4... I would really like to know where are EAs investors , I just want to talk.
God, I really do not like the direction The Sims is going.
(He/Him) I share mostly Sims 2 content, not at a consistent rate. (Also known as Sonikku3 and jdps18 on different websites)
