    @silverbane8065 3 роки тому +1

    Have to say, I haven't seen any of these but the dishes from GoS. But that could be because I'm a theme player that does medievil/ apocalypse games so my default replacements are ether wood or rusted metal lol. My download folder has gotten to the point now where I have to remove stuff, to get my game to even run if I find new stuff. I especially like the default replacements stuff 'almighty hat' has done, most work just fine in my zombie apocalypse hood, even the medievil replacement neighbourhood roads make sence (sort of lol)
    When I get my old PC fixed, I might grab some of these so I can have a non-theme version to parallel with my theme version on my sims only flat-top lol. That one can't run sims3 anymore so if I can cobble together a fix for the old PC, I can move sims3 to there and keep all the stuff on my flat-top along side.

    • @kaffei7001
      @kaffei7001  3 роки тому

      Oh, I know the feeling of having to remove cc, only to fill it back up with new cc lol. It’s a continuous cycle! I always thought medieval gameplay was really interesting, but I have yet to try it for myself. I do love the mods on Sun&Moon Factory, though, and they definitely make me want to give it a go! Hat has some great stuff, and they’re really wonderful at explaining how to edit mods, such as ACR. I’d probably still be in SimPE fiddling around with it if it wasn’t for Hat! I’m also glad you found some mods you’re interested in! Hope you enjoy them when you get you’re PC fixed up. Good luck! :)

      I love the Sun&Moon stations after I stumbled onto them at the Keep.
      I also theme sims1, but I can have more themes. With 7 or 8 versions of the same neighbourhood I have a medievil, magical (with potter bits), gothy, Roman/Greek/Viking normal and Japanese theme hoods to mess around in 😍 something for every day.
      Its harder with sims3 to get theme stuff, at least for me. I don't use the social media pages much lol, so I miss out on stuff.

    Wow amazing list of defaults, I never knew there were that many!
    I just have a problem getting Slig glass replacements to work since I am not really sure which files I should download and where to put them, glass on doors and windows stay the same for me

    • @kaffei7001
      @kaffei7001  3 роки тому +2

      Hello, and thank you so much for watching and commenting!
      For the Slig glass replacement, the download that I used is right below the picture on the website entitled "download default glass updated". Once you unzip the file, there is a package file, and a folder. The package file Slig_WindowsGlassALLv2shastakiss needs to go into your downloads folder. But inside the OFBGlassNeedsCEP folder, there is another package file. This file, you'll need to put into Documents/ The Sims 2/ zCEP-EXTRA. If you don't have this folder, you'll need to pop over to ModtheSims to download it, right here: modthesims.info/d/92541
      Slig has stated that this most probably requires Apartment Life. Once you have the zCEP-EXTRA folder and have put it in the proper directory ( which, if you have Ultimate Collection and have installed it typically, will be C:\Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection\Double Deluxe\Base\TSData\Res\Sims3D\ ), you'll need to replace the package file CEP-EXTRA_OFBWindows-Fix-for-AL with the one that Slig has provided. This is only required if you own OFB.
      I hope this helps! :)

    • @kaffei7001
      @kaffei7001  2 роки тому

      Hello! Hmm, I’m not quite sure why the trashcan would be invisible, although it may be the outdated version. I hope I didn’t post the old link on the video, but if I did, here’s the link to Alienpod’s updated trashcan: alienpod.tumblr.com/post/651292919400103936/i-updated-my-mailbox-default-made-from-scratch
      If you already have the updated version, Alienpod also did edit their updated post, saying that for a lot of people, the trashcan wasn’t working properly. :/ They suggested a reset if you can’t see the can’s mesh, but you can see the recolors making the original mesh look odd. They said they’d be working on a fix, so hopefully that’ll come out okay!
      The only other things that I can think of is either a conflict, or a missing pack ( I believe these work off of M&G ).

    • @kaffei7001
      @kaffei7001  3 роки тому +1

      I can try my best to help you with that! For the mailbox, I know that Alienpod has two different posts for it. The first gave many players issues, and then it was updated using the latest M&G object. Now, I can't say for certain, but because of this, you may need M&G, although the post does not state that you do. This is the link to the original, which also hosts the trash can: alienpod.tumblr.com/post/648733944554110976/default-replacement-for-the-residential-mailbox
      And this is the link to the updated mailbox:
      alienpod.tumblr.com/post/651292919400103936/i-updated-my-mailbox-default-made-from-scratch
      It also does need to be reset or it often won't show for me properly. I have the updated version, but I do have to warn anyone that the mailbox is not animated. As for the newspaper and the trash can, I would make sure there is nothing that could possibly conflict with the files - I know of a few downloadable neighborhoods that require default cc - make sure they are unzipped, try placing the package files directly into the downloads folder itself instead of a sub folder, and if all else fails, test these specific files on their own with no other mods, but be sure to back everything up before you do. Other than that, the only other thing that I can think of that could stop them from showing would be if they require a pack you may not own, but I can't find anything on the pages that state this. I hope this helps, and that you can get these files to work for you!

      @@kaffei7001 well, I’m always looking for sims 2 videos lol I’m obsessed with the sims 2 and even though I barely recolor items, I do love making lots. Thanks for being a fan. I’m humbled and personally it’s still weird for me that people know who I am.

      @@MishaSims Thank you for watching and commenting!!! And same; the Sims 2 has been with me for such a long time ( my first Sims game was actually The Sims 2 on PS2 lol ) and has always been a happy place. It’s always nice finding simmers that love it as much as I do! :)

    The music between segments is incredibly grating, I liked the video otherwise
