CRYSTAL KAY CANDY (2003)

YOU ARE HYPERREAL - TS3 Normal Map Replacement

I edited Buhudain’s "You Are Real" face and body default replacement normal maps to make the details pop even more on the skin. First, can we talk about the impact these mods made? When I discovered them I was blown away, they immediately became an essential. Buhudain truly changed the game with these.

What I tweaked:

I edited Buhudain's 2048 px sized textures 

More visible pores and skin texture 

More defined muscles and veins (intensity controlled by the muscle definition slider in CAS) 

More light-reflective, shinier skin (intensity changes with the muscle definition slider in CAS) 

Sims with no muscle definition will still have slightly more glow to the skin and more detailed pores/texture up close

No bump map on the male body’s nipples so they won't conflict with nipple placements on any skins (female body has them though)

Includes naughty bits

The effect looks stronger on darker skin, I'm not sure why

I think you’ll be able to appreciate the texture if you use a HQ mod and you take a lot of closeup photos of your sims like I do. I think it still looks normal enough for regular gameplay, although you’ll have to decide that for yourself after you try it out.  

Photos were taken with bright lights, the effect is subtler in normal lighting.

If you already use Buhudain’s You Are Real mods, you must remove them from your Mods folder first before installing mine. 

You can put these files in your Overrides or Packages folder. 

What’s in the zip: 

My edits of You Are Real for the male and female body (young adults to elders) 

My edits of You Are Real for the male and female face (young adults to elders)

If you only install the body files, your sim’s faces will not be affected. 

If you want to install the face files to look consistent with the bodies, you can choose between the version which has EA’s wrinkles on the adult face, or the version which does not have EA’s wrinkles on the adult face. Only install one, not both!

Most of The Sims games from the 2000s are quickly becoming abandonware! Here’s where you can find them! Because FUCK Article 13! Dedicated to ANYONE who might be affected. (Updated NOV ‘19!)

Just to add onto @uglytownie ‘s post about The Sims 2, I know there are some of you out there that would also like rarer titles from The Sims’ massive back catalog. 

If anything happens to this blog because of this post: My NEW twitter handle is @nostalgiasim, my discord is SimWorld (this link never expires), and my personal Neocities page is myonlinepityparty.neocities.org.

If any of these links do not work for any reason, whether you need technical help or those files are no longer available, you can also find these abandonware games at Games4TheWorld. However, The Sims 3 and The Sims 4 can also be found on that site and I do not publically condone piracy. G4TW world also has an extensive forum for getting these older games to work. You can look for help there. :)

[TS3] Scalp Accessory

I come bearing an accessory to hopefully combat hairs with gigantic, open patches of bald head or to use to make a shaved style more full.  There are two flavors: full and sparse.  

Full is right up to nearly the edge of the scalp and is more for full, lengthy hair, that just has a weird scalp thing going on - weird streaks of skin everywhere that one always finds obnoxious.  I was working on one that would extend just slightly past this line to meet scalp makeup that’s floating around CCLand better, but I kind of gave up on it (not sorry).

Sparse is more for hairstyles that have an okay style, but it may look a little funny when you get deeper past the hairline: too little hair where there probably should be at least some.  It can also be used to augment styles where a shaved head is a thing, but you may feel there should be a bit more thickness.

Compatible for males and females, teen through elder.

You might be able to combine both the full and sparse accessories together if you’re desperate for even more coverage, but I didn’t test this possibility out so much and it probably wouldn’t give you the result you think you’d get.

Private Clinic - Psychiatry

Ever want to do something to help all the messed up Sims in your town? With this mod, your Sim can run a private clinic as a therapist.

You can join the Psychiatry career, buy a Therapist couch and start treating patients for all their emotional and mental maladies. Using a clinic controller object, patients will be pushed to your clinic lot in need of treatment. Active patients can be identified by the orange and white symbol over their head (pictured above).

This is the first part of a larger game mod that allows Sims to be more active doctors similar to what we have in TS4 Get to Work. Your Sim will be able to run a clinic out of their house or from a commercial lot and treat patients for different ailments. Eventually you'll be able to play as a Psychiatrist, Optometrist, Ob-GyM, or a General Physician.

This mod also adds two additional features:

Medicine - Sims can buy prescription or over-the-counter medicine to treat various mild ailments. Medicines can be purchased at the grocery store (Home section) or Buy catalog. There is also a collection file where you can find all available objects. Prescription medicine can only be obtained at the grocery store or hospital with a prescription.

Drug Addiction - Sims can get addicted to the prescription medicine if they overuse it. This can lead to withdrawal symptoms and potential overdose. There is an option to go to rehab at the hospital for Sims that need the help to kick the habit.

You need NRaas Careers (for the custom career), University, Island Paradise, Ambitions EPs.

Download instructions:

The Private Clinic main module has all the medicines, the clinic controller and addiction system. You need that to play as a Therapist but if you just want the medicines, you only need to download these files. Note that you cannot write prescriptions or do anything doctor related without downloading the Psychiatry module. Download here

There is also a collection file which has all the available objects

The Psychiatry module is required to play as a therapist. The career is optional but some features won't be available without it. Download here

There are documentation files in both folders that go through the features in detail so PLEASE READ through them before downloading.

Credits/Thanks: All the objects except for the Couch which is EA's are from @aroundthesims so thanks as always to Sandy for her wonderful stuff and generous use policy. Buff images are courtesy of Freepik. Thanks to everyone on the S3 Creators Discord that did early testing for the mod, especially @misspats3 who tests like it's her job with photos, videos, detailed notes. 👌 Also to Battery who helped me with the manager system.

As always if you have any issues (resets, missing strings, etc.) please let me know.
