I turn 21 today! \(♡˙ㅂ˙♡)/ so I thought I'd share something, at least. Sorry, this might not be of interest to anyone but me, heh!

one recolor on "french romantic" frame from kitchen & bath

15 of my rdr2 screenshots on "this olde cabin" frame from bon voyage

(swatch included but you can also view it here)

seven recolors using teasers from KEY's new album on "hollywood print" poster from teen stuff (mesh fix by me included)

said mesh fix:

The CEP is required for my recolors to work (+ ep/sp in question) and all files have been compressed to reduce file size :-) as usual, you can choose between merged or separate files.

I added some shadows to my rdr2 recolors to make the egdes (between frame and painting) more soft, but let me know if it looks weird. And please let me know if the darker images are too dark! Then I'll light them up a bit. Also, sorry for the depressing previews lol (; ಠㅂಠ)b

Let me know if I messed up anywhere :-)

I love Voeille's snow default, but the texture size is 2048x2048 and I don't use anything above 1024x1024 in my game, so I decreased it to 1024x1024 and thought I might as well share my small edit :-)

EA's original size: 512x512 (x4)

My default's size: 1024x1024 (x4)

Voille's original default's size: 2048x2048 (x4)

The file has been compressed and this default requires seasons. Don't forget to grab the other gorgeous defaults from Voeille! (the snow default were the only textures above 1024x1024)

I also recommend this snowflake default by @ivy-sims and "no more blue snow" shader fix by @veronavillequiltingbee, though I think everyone might already be using those by now (♡˙ㅂ˙♡)b my preview was taken before I had successfully installed that shader, for anyone wondering!

As usual, let me know if you stumble upon any problems :-) and remember you can only have one default for the snow textures in your downloads folder at a time! The only default for these textures out there I know of is Voeille's original default, so choose between my version or Voeille's original :-)

Finally! Here's my default for the delivery NPC \(★ㅂ★)/

NPC Clothing + Cap

As usual, the very first thing I did was remove EA's horrendous shadows (; ಠㅂಠ) then I changed color, replaced the logo on the cap + clothing with my new one. I replaced the logo on the chest with an employee bagde instead though (I snatched that from the pizza NPC's texture -which I have a default for here if you're interested!). I also improved EA's AF fat morph quite a bit so now it looks better around the boob and butt area (it legit looked like EA took the naked mesh and just.. slapped the shoes on). I made the waist wider on the AF mesh (thin+fat) since it looked waaay too small. I also fixed some weird pointy vertexes on the AM (thin+fat) mesh. Unfortunately, the bagde looks a bit stretched on the AF fat morph and I couldn't fix it :-(

Vehicle

I changed color (which I snatched from TNW's default) and made a new logo using resources from EA's old logo :-D unfortunately, one side will show the text flipped and I couldn't fix this because of how the texture looks (trust me, it looked ridiculous when I tried fixing it!). Also, keep in mind that if you use any of psychosim's grungy vehicle defaults from this post with my delivery vehicle default, the insides will be grungy on this vehicle as well. This is because all of EA's trucks share those textures, which psychosim replaces in both their defaults.

Shopping Basket

I also gave the shopping basket a new look + removed the groundshadow. EA's basket had sugar, milk, eggs, ice cream(?), sausage and some sort of meat but in my basket you have bread, milk, bananas, cereal, cabbage and macncheese! The basket is also new, I re-used simi-simmer's shopping basket but re-made the file (since simi deleted the download because of problems with the default). Worth mentioning is that my basket default now uses two textures, instead of one.

The textures are all EA's original, but whenever I share my food defaults I'll update this default!

EA's basket:

Polys: 1256

Textures: 1 (128x256)

My default:

Polys: 1583

Textures: 2 (256x512 & 256x256)

Misc Deco

I repo'd chimerical's extracted boxes (they are found inside the delivery vehicle) to "vehicledeliverytruck-box_txtr" since their texture was a copy of EA's texture, and if things can be repo'd - then I need them repo'd :-D I did edit the "largerboxes1" mesh and deleted some accidental faces chimerical forgot to remove (going from 92 to 88 polys).

Remember you can't have both my version and chimerical's original in your downloads folder at the same time! Choose between my edited versions or their original :-)

Recommended Mods

Here are some related mods/defaults you might be interested in:

Neder’s no relationships with delivery people

@fanseelamb's AM baseball cap default (which I am using in my previews!)

@itsdiamondeyesuniverse has a mod here which randomizes the delivery NPC hair! :-D

The texture sizes and polys are the same as EA's original (with the exception of my basket replacement) and the NPC clothing, hair, and vehicle have been merged into one file, the basket default is in a separate file. All files have been compressed to reduce file size, and remember you can only have one default for the delivery NPC outfit and vehicle in your downloads folder at a time! And please let me know if you stumble upon any problems :-)

Edit: I updated the clothing preview as it was an old one (it didn't show my mesh edits). Unfortunately I think the image won't update in reblogs? And the small pointy vertex on the AM mesh (still seen in my preview) has been fixed in my default!

Long time no see! Here is a small default for the rose accessory from Freetime, replaced with an edited version of the date reward rose from Nightlife. It's fully animated and will wiggle like EA's original!

EA: Polys: 190 Texture size: 128x128 Mine: Polys: 388 texture size: 256x128

There are two versions to choose from and Freetime is required for both. If you have Nightlife installed, you can choose to use the repo'd default* (it's repo'd to "daterewardbouquet-flowers-surface_txtr"). If you don’t have Nightlife installed (or for some reason just don’t want the repositoried version) choose the Freetime file.

*Worth mentioning, inside this repo'd default there's also a texture default for the date reward bouquet. EA had painted on shadows in that texture and it bothered me very much, so I removed them. This means that if you have any texture default replacing "daterewardbouquet-flowers-surface_txtr", they are not compatible. To solve this, you can let that default load after my default, or simply use the Freetime version of my default. My default will not conflict with @alienpod's default though! In other words, they are compatible.

Remember you can only have one default for the rose accessory in your downloads folder at a time. The only one out there I know of, is the one by @ivy-sims which you can find here. It's technically compatible with my repo'd version, but I don't see why would use them both at the same time since that texture will not be used in my repo'd default anyway ;-)

As usual, all files have been compressed to reduce file size and do let me know if you stumble upon any problems. Happy simming!

Edit: if anyone is wondering what this interaction is, I explained it here! :-D

Edit #2: Ooops! I just realized that in my first preview I'm using @shastakiss' beautiful default for the date reward bouquet, but in my defaults I had EA's texture. I updated my defaults (both zips) so they now also have a version using shasta's default with my small edit of removing the shadows.

If you have shasta's default file as well, you can let my default load after shasta's, or open up her file in SimPE and remove the "daterewardbouquet-flowers-surface_txtr" resource if you're planning on using my Nightlife version. Sorry for the confusion!

Maxis Match CC Free Multi-Pt Mod

I got bored of the multi-pt mod that I was using so I made my own! I wanted something maxis match. They all have black hair genetics because that's how I like it, but it is easy to change in simpe (feel free to ask for a tutorial). I have tested them and they look good in all lifestages and genders. I have PT21, PT28, PT32 and PT47 pictured in that order. It is CC free but you need the mannequin babies can be born fix for PT47 otherwise your game will crash or freeze upon the baby being born.

A thing that bothered me about other Multi-PT mods is that the baby wouldn't have the alien face anymore, so I made sure to mix in some of the alien face template into all of them. I have also used custom sliders and baby face templates on them, but you don't need them and not having them will not cause any issues, because it is part of the character file. This is what the babies look like:
