The Coffeesmith Project - Mod Blend 1.5 - Barista Plus Rebrewed

Howdy, How is everyone? So, what’s this one about? Well, it works the same as Barista Plus, Except not really. This is the Proxy GUID version of Barista Plus. So a while back, a bit around the original release of Barista Plus, some people have inquired about making it better by instead of looking at a bunch of individual GUIDs, it should look for a Proxy GUID, kind of like what Argon’s Instruments does, and that has been sitting on the back of my head for a while, but It wasn’t something I was actively working on since the original release of Barista Plus. That Changed last week, when @itsdiamondeyesuniverse slid into my DMs and found some interesting information about Proxy GUID, and after a couple of hours and days with plenty of help from @midgethetree, here arrives the Rebrewed version of Barista Plus.

Edit (Because I forgot to put a quick description of what the original Barista Plus did): What the original Barista Plus (and this one too) does is that it allows Baristas to spawn in Custom Espresso Bars, what changes is how the mod does so. For specifics, the Mod looks at all objects for a specific GUID (the Fallback GUID located in the 0,0 position object) which for most of the espresso bars, that does not change at all, and it spawns the barista if the conditions are met, like I said, same deal as Barista Plus, except this one doesn’t look at only eleven GUIDs, or so, but to all instances of the same fallback GUID. Now for a bit of a warning, like I said, this GUID is going to look at *All* objects, which means it might caused some lag, that didn’t happened when I tested it, but if you have a CC Heavy Game, feel free to tell me if it does. Download Special Thanks to @itsdiamondeyesuniverse for getting me the information that helped me getting this thing started, @midgethetree for helping with the code, @crispsandkerosene and @miros1 (I hope I’m not missing anyone else) for asking if making that revision was a possibility, and Everyone at the PBK Discord for general support.

Mini-tutorial for SimPe users

What's that "Merge" button for?

'Merge' button allows you to quickly add / replace only a part of material properties inside recolour package.

Export the settings (.xml file) from recolour A

Open .xml file with text editor like Notepad

Locate and remove the lines you don't want to replace / add to recolour B, for example: remove base texture name if you don't want to link clothing recolour B to texture resource used by clothing recolour A*

Open recolour B and hit Merge to open pop-up window. Pick the edited xml and import the settings. Remember to Commit and save.

*note: TS2 Bodyshop recolours like clothing, accessories, hair are linked to a specific texture only with TXMT Properties. In case of object recolours you also need to add / edit texture name inside File List tab.

I use Merge method to link a batch of clothing recolours to the same normal map texture included with the mesh file.

More of these... oh well, guess it doesn't hurt

- My First Sims Experience was with the PS2 Version of the Sims 2, it had tons of awesome stuff, but the sims...weren't as awesome

- I like to read... well, when i was younger i read a lot, now it's just casualy.

- I'll kill myself to do something i like, on the other hand, when something i do bores me, i barely do something.

- I'm trying to grow sideburns, mutton chop type, yet my facial hair hasn't showed up fully.

- Sometimes i can get a bit nervous around a crowd of unknown or unfamilliar people, but that nerveousness i can disguise easily.

Ok, these are done.

I’ve been looking for this old set for a long time now after I stumbled on a couple of individual pieces, I’m glad to see it complete and with a fresh look to it.

BlueTexasBonnie Keep It Simple Set

Thanks to all of you who sent well-wishes about COVID! We are all finally feeling better, although my cough lingers and I’m still tired a lot. This set was asked for on WishingTree @ GoS and I thought I’d post it here as well.

All of the objects not repository to the counter are repository to the bookcase. So there are really only 2 main files for the set, which has counter, island, cabinet, new deco corner counter, end table, table, desk, bookcase, fireplace,  pantry/ fridge (updated to FT/AL), and garderobe/toilet (not shown). I have done a lot of work on this set- cleaning up the textures, making all the TXMTs match, quarter-tiling, new deco corner counter and making matching textures for many pieces so that the whole set has all the original BTB textures. If you’d like it, you can

Regarding the Future of the Keep

Due to many factors, not just financial, and after careful consideration, it has been decided that Plumb Bob Keep will close its doors on March 1, 2024.

This extra year has been given to us so we can properly archive the site and ensure that the content is still accessible. We will be launching a kickstarter or similar donation drive to repay Stas, Sunni's widower, for this bonus year.

The staff of PBK would like to thank the community as a whole for their amazing creations over the years, the way you all pulled together to help archive the site, and the comraderie and friendship that we have shared as historical simmers.

Looking forward, there are ideas in the works for a new, "spinoff" site where we can continue to host downloads, and the Discord will go on as well, possibly under a new name. We hope many, if not all of you, will make this transition with us.

Thank you again for 12 wonderful years of simming, and for proving that there was definitely enough interest for a forum dedicated to medieval and other historical content!

Oh this is absolutely a game changer on the task of mesh repositoring!

Sims 2 Tools - Repository Wizard

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!
