Thank you for the birthday wishes and kind messages everyone! ( ´༎ຶㅂ༎ຶ`)❤

(I'm very happy to hear you liked the paintings @itsdiamondeyesuniverse! :-D I'll probably make some more recolors in the future on other frames because in the end, turned out I liked them as paintings too, haha \(★ㅂ★)/)

I've been thinking of defaulting some of the plants in ts2 for a while, and this is the first WIP batch of said defaults!

Bonsai

yesterday I wasn't too sure about my new vase, but today I think I like it more than EA's?

Fig

I'm really liking this! I got the textures from one of verankas flowers (plant 5), I also fixed the mapping problem (<- image snatched from this upload by Michelle)

Ficus

got rid of the horrible shadows under the leaves (like wtf EA) and re-mapped the tree a tiny bit. Not sure if I should re-use EA's bark texture or go with the brown one?

Small bonsai

I kind of like EA's leaves so I think I'll replace the grass(?) with my version and make the flowers a recolor instead. I fixed the pot's mapping and hafiseazale's CEP-extra issue too :-D perhaps that's already been fixed by now though?

Philodendron

the pot is from trapping's julstjärna but slightly edited by me. I really like how this one turned out :-D

1. I needed to reblog this with yakumtsaki's (10/10) meme

2. I found out that there are 18(!) texture resources in total containing the same pink color as shown above, but with different opacities and texture sizes:

I wonder what this is? Like, what did EA intend to do with... this

Edit 2021-09-25: @bstu, @userdata said:

bstu Oh, hi! I forgot I tested this in the Pleasantsims server and it turned out not to be it. I have a theory though - this used to be a normal texture until it got borked, but it got saved in a borked 'pink flashing' state. Since they could edit stuff live, and also generally didn't clean up after themselves, I think it might be a fair assumption? 🤔

userdata i don't know how this is related, but this shade of pink was used in ts1 for transparency (similarly to grayscale alpha maps in ts2), so this might be a leftover from early development? idk

So yeah, it's probably not the pink flashing after all lol 😩

did I just find the pink flashing texture

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 don't think I will ever get tired of the nature in rdr

happy burday 🥺🥺🥺

thank you so much! ( ´༎ຶㅂ༎ຶ`)❤
