how to get your neighborhood deco back when you forget and load a neighborhood without your CC deco in your downloads folder
This probably happens to me more than anyone else, but I've seen a few other people lament doing it as well, so while I fixed it (again) I decided to make a quick post showing how.
You MUST have a recent backup of your neighborhood with the missing deco. So long as you have that, it's very easy!
You will need:
Again, a backup of that specific neighborhood
Mootilda's HoodReplace
Tumblr media
Open HoodReplace and click 'browse' next to 'copy from', and navigate to where you have your backup stored.
Tumblr media
Select the necessary neighborhood or subhood package; in this case, I'm fixing downtown.
Tumblr media
In the other box, select your corresponding neighborhood/subhood.
Now the ticky boxes: under replace, make sure 'trees' and 'decorations' are ticked. Do not tick 'fix elevation'! If you do that in this scenario, all your hood deco will end up floating a little bit and you'll have to either click it one by one to fix that or repeat the HoodReplace but without the elevation fix. I assume fix elevation is for people actually replacing their terrain map and not fixing their deco because they're forgetful like me.
Click copy. You're done! Wow, so easy! Double check that everything is how it should be in your neighborhood, and remember, BACK UP YOUR GAME. Backups are love, backups are life. All hail the backup.

Hi, what skins do you use for your rainbowcy ? I really am trying to do one but I keep hitting some walls (non genetic, don’t have waterproof skins for custom bodies… etc) I kind of accepted to basically play with 3 genetic alien skins.
Hellooo! I tracked down every alien skin I currently use in my game, so this is going to be a pretty long post. Apologies in advance.
I don't actually use any showerproof skins, since they have to link to each shape individually, which means I'd have to have multiple copies of the same skins, and no control over who inherits which shape, and I prefer to choose bodyshapes for my sims on a case by case basis.
My kind of janky solution is using the never-nude trait from @hexagonal-bipyramid's 3t2 traits project on any sims who have non-default bodyshapes. It means they'll wear their bathing suits in the shower but eh. Small price to pay! (For very outgoing sims who like to skinny-dip anyway, I use an invisible swimsuit recolor.)
As for geneticizing, I mess with the genetics of literally every skin I put in my game, and I highly recommend others do the same! Nobody plays aliens the same way, so it's always good to check how a creator geneticizes their skins and adjust to suit your needs. It's super easy to do, just a matter of changing a couple values in SimPe. All you need to do is download the latest version of SimPe and follow this tutorial by Rikkulidea.
Onto the skins! To start, here are the ones I've made:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Defaults Alien/Zombie/Werewolf skins.
Net Neutrality alien skins.
Birthday content skins.*
Pasteliens.
Day 31 Advent skins.
Gleaming model skin blend.
New! Cakebread yellow gen skin blends.
9. and 10. Old alien skins (LPCMB 9, Down Boy Bluebell, Jade, and Pearl, My Poor Lover 10-13.)
Skins by @furbyq-sims:

Moonlight recolors.
Various green skins.
Peachy recolors.
Furbyq has a lot of other great sets that I'm not currently using, but you should definitely check out her skins download tag for more!

MerDragon skins by @magpieplayssims (Note: there's also some lovely pale tones in that set, I'm just not using them presently.)
Whysims Jirka Blend 3 - Alien version by @h0nkytonkangels
Stargazer by Tea Leaf
My Poor Lover alien recolors* pt 1, pt 2, and pt 3 by @pinketamine (note: the original download requires a 4shared account so I reuploaded them to my SFS folder. Pinketamine if you see this and would rather I take them down, lmk!)
And that's everything! I'm not using every single recolor in the above sets, I cull them down to minimize overlap between skins that use the same actions and whatnot.
*Two of my birthday content skins overwrite the Hazardous and Combustible recolors in @pinketamine's MPL recolor set. You can't have both in your game at the same time. I just changed some of the facial features so pick whichever you prefer.
P.S. Oh, one other thing! @skulldilocks and I technically have an alien finds blog @pazookaalienfinds but it's a bit outdated. We're trying to catalogue all relevant colorful alien content for ts2 (even maxis match stuff we don't use), so we're always open for submissions. The only thing we don't post there is mostly natural skin sets that have like one green alien skin tacked on.

Whysim's Jirka Blend 3 - Alien Version!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I wanted some more alien skins, and this lovely skin by @whysim made a wonderful base!
I used color actions by @pooklet, @furbyq, and Digi. There's a pretty good mix of light/dark and bright/desaturated. The 21 swatches are pictured below. Before anyone asks, yes, I've run natural actions on this skin. However, I'm having difficulty making the darker tones look decent. I won't upload the natural set until I get that figured out.
Previews of the fitness states:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
As you can see, the normal male shape is still pretty buff looking. That's a feature from the original skin. The only thing I changed was the teeth/tongue texture, which I borrowed from @sixfootsims.
Download! (custom only)
Enjoy, and let me know if there are any issues!

hearing the sims being called a "cozy game" is so ??? because i grew up playing the sims 1 and thats one of the most evil games ever created. and no, not intentionally evil, this is beyond will wright's hands. what i'm saying is that a foul fae spirit invaded the sims files and has permeated every sims 1 installation since. there is a malicious, foreboding presence in that game hiding behind the quirky, comic-sans labelled veneer, and if you meditate quietly for too long in its presence something tragic will happen

Pooklet’s September Face templates as non-defaults!
Okay, maybe I have other things today than shitposts XD Although, I worked on this set for 3 months which is ridiculous, so have a laugh!
So these actually didn’t have any lods to begin with, so I hope no one is playing in low definition (I’ve never in my life seen the lod sim faces, so I guess we’re safe). You can see the faces better in Pooklet’s original post! And as usual, please tell me if something is not working! :)
