Seya's tattoos.

༺═───────────────═༻ Just wanted to give you guys some posts to let you know we're alive, and still working on Uranesia. I hope to be more interactive and do more stuff on Tumblr in the future, but I'm still busy with the project and with school. In the meantime, I'll do the best I can with these small updates. Stay safe in this crazy weather everyone 💚.

Merry Christmas! ❄️

I’ve found this amazing mod by Canibal_MLO today, and of course I’ve had to try it in Saaqartoq! I swear all these pics are unedited, the auroras look incredible in the game, they seem SO real.

I also wanted to give a small update on Uranesia: yes, we’re still (slowly) working on it. At the moment I’m working on the routing, and I’m having to change and re-build a lot of things (terrain, lots, paths, objects...) to reduce lag and make the world more playable. It’s a very complicated world routing-wise, given that it’s roadless and has many scattered areas. So this is why there haven’t been updates lately. 

I hope you all have a nice holiday (even if you have to work, like me lol) ✨

Hello there. I want to use your Hylewood world for my machinima (it's my first time making machinima, so I may publish it or not), since I am struggling making my own world in CAW lol. And i thought Hylewood seems like what i expect my world to look like. Would you bothered with this? thanks

Hi, and sorry for the late reply. Sure, no problem! You can use Hylewood and publish any content you want :)

Finalized the Death Priest religious garb for the Koruss Pangmahe household, but if you guys have any suggestions they’re very welcome.

༺═────────────────────═༻ The goal is to convert Larrya’s (the woman in the group) outfit and the pearl necklace to all ages and both sexes. However, I don’t know how to mod, so there’s that 😅.

If anyone who knows how to do it would like to help us with these clothing conversions, we’d be so grateful!

When you made your sims 3 worlds, did you use Super CAW or the water plane generators by Zaide_Chris & SandrineD?

I think this response from a while ago will help you: click here :)

Do you know how to make a trailer for your town? Is it a mini video when the town just loaded?

I've never created one myself, but I think this is what you're asking for: https://cawtool.fandom.com/wiki/Creating_an_Initial_Flyover

Hotel Adriano (for TS3)

(from Porco Rosso, by Studio Ghibli)

I’ve always been a big fan of Studio Ghibli and I wanted to create something from one of the movies. I remembered there was this beautiful hotel on the water in the movie Porco Rosso, so I decided to create it in the sims. 

> FLOORPLAN:

Hotel Adriano works as an Island Paradise resort, and it features a hall with a front desk and a bar, a dining room with buffet tables, outdoor terraces and gardens, three luxury suites, two resort rabbit holes, a kitchen, a gym, a spa and a wedding room.

(in the pictures I placed Hotel Adriano in Plavi Raj, which is based on the Adriatic coast, just like Hotel Adriano in the movie!)

> LOT INFO: 64x64 lot,  §486,186

> PLACEMENT: Just place an 64x64 lot on water and place Hotel Adriano there. But that note that when you place it, for some reason, the front desk appears here (see picture below). Just relocate it to the hall, where it should be (you can use moveobjects on).

> EPs:

I’ve used content from all EPs except University, and from the following stuff packs: High-End Loft Stuff, Fast Lane Stuff, Outdoor Living Stuff.

> CC:

I’ve used 61 package files. The CC is included in a folder in the .rar for easier installation.

> DOWNLOAD: Click here (SFS)

> THINGS TO NOTE:

  • I did all I could to minimize the effect, but, since I made the roof with cfe, some edges can look a bit wonky at different times of the day depending on the angle and the lighting.

Hope you like it!

KAIHOLA by technicallyswagpizza

"Sea and people have made the island what it is today. The island's epic landscapes are the stuff of poetry. Sand, wind, unspoiled archipelago and the beautiful bedrock, worn smooth by glacial ice. Glistening in the afternoon sun, yellow, red and white houses cling to rocky shores and fishing boats bob in the water. The verdant pine forests turn to charming leafy tunnels, framing every view. Time stops, people live a quiet life here."

Kaiho is a word that is a bit more difficult to translate as it has a certain type of melancholic nuance to it that nostalgia or longing for something doesn't cover exactly. Kaihola is my ode to Finland, an undefinable sadness that won't go away. The world is loosely based on two islands off the coast of Finland, Hailuoto and Ahvenanmaa, and my tiny hometown up north.

FEATURES

  • Medium sized map.
  • 35 lots all in all spread across the island.
  • Unpopulated.
  • Includes a base camp enabling you to use Kaihola as a travel destination.
  • Spanking new distant terrain and matching terrain painting textures.
  • Wide variety of regular spawners, no World Advenures or ITF
  • Custom lighting mod included in the world file.

But wait, there is more! I have made two versions for you to choose from!

#1 Empty world // Requirements:

All expansion packs except ITF (No stuff packs!). Yikes! It's a lot for an empty world and boy don't I know it! I'm fairly sure I have used every other expansion except ITF for the landscaping. Some more than the others, however if you are missing an expansion pack, the trees and shrubs I have used will simply be replaced by something else.

CC used: Distant terrain, some of the flowers and trees made by me + Hidden Springs decorative barns + Aurora Skies birch tree are included in the download.

  • Map is completely empty, has a wide variety of spawners and is ready to be built by you.
  • Empty diving lot off the coast somewhere.
  • Two options for world installation, either through the launcher as a sims3pack OR bypass the launcher and drop the world package file in the designated folder.
  • Optional terrain painting textures made by me available for download if you wish to use them for landscaping your lots in game.

Download // Mirror

#2 Built and ready to move in! // Requirements:

All expansion packs except ITF (No stuff packs!)

CC used: Rabbit hole rugs by Jynx (Pet fixed), some EA store items, my distant terrain, flowers, trees, house shells and rabbit hole recolours. All included in the download.

If you don’t have some of the expansion packs or don’t want to install the EA store content provided, the items I have used will simply be replaced by something else from your own game. I cannot promise that nothing will break, but some bits might look a little bare or funky due to the replaced items!

  • All the lots are built and furnished, I have left 5 empty lots for you to build and fill yourself including an empty diving lot off the coast.
  • Recoloured and rescripted rabbit holes. That being said, Kaihola comes with basic rabbit hole careers you would get in a vanilla game.
  • Two options for world installation, either through the launcher as a sims3pack OR bypass the launcher and drop the world package file in the designated folder.
  • Optional terrain painting textures made by me available for download if you wish to use them for landscaping your lots in game.
  • The church deco has snow issues. To be fixed at some point in the future, maybe?

⇩  Download // Mirror

Almost there, just few more bits!

  • I have created a lighting mod for Kaihola and included it in the world file itself, I would recommend at least trying it out (by taking your own lighting mod out of Mods/Packages folder to see it in action)! If you like Kaihola’s lighting and want to use it in other worlds or as a standalone mod, shoot me a message and I’ll make a package for you.
  • In the screenshots above I have maxed out settings and Reshade enabled, but my preset is very subtle and it only adds a soft blur effect and strengthens shadows a little bit. I don't edit my screenshots other than crop and resize them with photoshop, so basically what you see above is what you will get :>
  • I would strongly advise downloading Nraas Go Here and disabling boats. They will cause lag as townies have a habit of looping around with them endlessly. I'd also recommend disabling wild horses and stray pets as they tend to get stuck.
  • I built all the lots myself except for the following 3: A massive thank you to @silvakristiina for letting me use her de-CCd Ivars house as a base camp, I also edited a junkyard from doublemedion694′s Cladbridge-on-Stowe and the boat is an edited version of this made by @fagersims.

If you post pictures, please let me know and tag them with #Kaihola or simply @ tag me. I’d love to see any and all pictures!

Congratulations, you have reached the end credits!

Special thanks to @silvakristiina and @depistako for playtesting and giving me feedback about the feel of the world! ♡

I know it has been like 2 years now, but thank you @hydrangeachainsaw for teaching me how to make distant terrain and for all the invaluable World Machine & Blender help! And a final thanks to @grandelama for sharing the beautiful road textures and allowing me to tweak them further! (  ˊᵕˋ  )♡.°

PLAÇA CÍVICA - UAB (for TS3)

I’ve taken another short building break and I’ve built my sim version of the Plaça Cívica at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (Autonomous University of Barcelona), a public university located in Cerdanyola del Vallès, near Barcelona. Plaça Cívica (civic square) is the main square at the UAB campus, a place where I’ve been countless times, especially when I was studying my degree there. Plaça Cívica features different businesses and commodities for students, however I’ve only decorated the exterior. It’s famous for its heavy political atmosphere and the many graffiti and posters supporting different causes, which I’ve tried to replicate in the sims.

> Lot info: 60 x 60 flat lot, 321,479 simoleons.

Note: It doesn’t work as a university in the Sims, it’s just a regular community lot.

> EPs: I’ve used content from all EPs except University Life (funny). No SPs.

> CC: I’ve used 21 package files. The CC is included in a folder in the .rar for easier installation. Credits: AroundTheSimsD3VV, Grandelama, Lisen801, Luna.

> DOWNLOAD: Click here (SFS)
