That 90's thread
Hey everyone. 😊 Since this year marks my 40th birthday ( 🤯 ) I've been feeling rather nostalgic...missing my younger days in what I would call the greatest decade ever: the 1990's. 💙💚💛 Some of the best years of my life were in the 90's (apart from meeting the love of my life in 2006) and I wanna keep some of the best of the 1990's (as well as early 2000's - I'll allow it 👍🏻) alive in our Sims 3 games. So that's why I've created this thread. A place where we can share any kind of cc out there that screams 1990's (early 2000's)! 😁 Now some of you might be thinking, "Emorrill, there's already 1990's styles in the Sims 3." True... But NOT ENOUGH! 😜 I know there's plenty of y'all on here that share my love of the 90's, so if you have or happen upon any kind of cc out there that's 1990's (early 2000's) related - hairstyles, clothing, furniture, make-up styles (outlined lips anyone? 😛) - please share it on here. And bookmark this thread! Cause I wanna feel more nostalgia and have a 90's cc collection! ⭐ *I only ask a couple of things when sharing: Please provide a photo of the cc that you found as well as a working download link for it. (It's no fun if we can't download it... 😥) I certainly welcome anyone who can provide links to cc found online that is no longer available on the internets anymore, 💗👏🏻 but the pictures are still out there to taunt us. 😐 #annoying! ^That's still a pound sign to me, btw. 😂^ **Please remember: While some of the cc I share on here has been play-tested in my game, others have not. As is the case with all cc, you download at your own risk. Always back up your current cc, and save folders, before adding in any new cc just in case. 👍🏻 Anyway! 🎵 Let's get ready to rumble! 🎵 Now y'all, my memory ain't what it used to be so there's only so many styles from the 90's that I actually remember. 😵 Let me start the cc sharing off with this one: "The Rachel Cut" Hairstyle from the hit TV show F*R*I*E*N*D*S. 😊 Y'all remember the beautiful Jennifer Aniston sporting the iconic hairstyle, right? Over the years I've found a couple of cc hairstyles that resemble it quite nicely (and now they are lost to the internet), but I think this is the best one still available so far that I've found. And it was created by none other than the incredible Peggy! This hairstyle is available for download in this MEGA collection of PeggyZone hairs: https://mega.nz/folder/0QsmVTIY#rfaSJG-WVIZIDPUMD10R8w/folder/ZN9wUZ7I (You'll have to copy and paste this link into a new tab due to the forum dubbing it an "invalid HTML" 🙄 That drives me nuts!) Here's how it looks in game to those who are curious. 😉 If any of y'all have another (or better) version of The Rachel Cut, please feel free to share. 😊👍🏻 There's some other late 90's hairstyle gems in that MEGA folder like this one: (Which apparently Jennifer Aniston also sported. 👍🏻 I just remember many girls in my high school doing their hair like this. 😊) Edit to add: When testing ^this hair^ in my game it was not showing up in CAS. 🙁 So I found a nice retexture of it which I hope works. 👍🏻 Here's the link: https://anubis360.blogspot.com/2011/12/peggy-hair-826-fixed-and-pookletd-for.html Here's how the retextured hair by anubis looks like in my game, with color variations. ⭐ Anyhoo! Now share all the 90's cc you can find with me (us) y'all! 😁 Let's have a bunch of fun reminiscing with this thread. 🥰 Thanks y'all! ~~~Please remember that I edit posts often to add more cc items I find that fit the theme of that particular post. So don't forget to refer back to the older posts to see what's new and decide if you want more! 😁👍🏻~~~ *FORUM TIP*: Click on the "Oldest" tab below to see all the posts in their proper order if you are not a regular follower.
Apple Bobbing Tank - Fix for Children
Hello, when playing The Sims 3, you might have experienced this problem as well: In specific instances, children cannot use the Apple Bobbing Tank. I had this problem as well and found this thread: Children Can't Bob For Apples | EA Forums - 904684 With the help of that thread, I came to the solution why it happens: It has to do with the fact that the Apple Bobbing Tank blocks off too much walkable space (at least when placed diagonally). When reducing this value (the so-called footprint areas) then children can use Apple Bobbing Tanks, no matter in which angle they are placed. Everybody can do that, but it does involve several steps (cloning the object, then finding the necessary values and setting them to appropriate numbers). So I uploaded the resource containing the correct values on ModTheSims. It can be downloaded from here: https://modthesims.info/d/694012/apple-bobbing-tank-fix-for-children.html Just download the file and put it into your mods folder like every other mod. If the Apple Bobbing Tank was placed beforehand, then you need to reset its values before it works. For that, go into buy mode, pick up the Apple Bobbing Tank, and either place it back down or press Escape. You only have to do this once per object. If you start a new game/neighbourhood, then already placed Apple Bobbing Tanks will still have the original value, so you need to do the abovementioned steps as well, but again, only once. If you should still have trouble, or if you want to know the details of how to create that fix yourself, feel free to comment here or on ModTheSims.
mystery house
Hi all ... it's my first time posting here, and I'm wondering whether any Simmers out there can help me find a CC house. I downloaded it a couple of years ago; then my computer crashed, and I lost a lot of stuff. I had placed the house on a lot in one of my save games, so I just saved that lot to my new memory bin when I got a new computer and reinstalled everything. I wanted to find the original house because I had placed my download on a larger lot than the house was built on. So I recently began looking for it online--but I've had no luck whatsoever. I have a feeling the original builder removed it from whatever site they posted it to, which is a shame because it's a lovely split-level house that must have taken a ton of work and care to build. Here's a photo of it as installed in another save game (the original was on a 40x40 lot): Does anyone else have, or recognize, this house? Maybe someone even knows who the builder was...? If anyone can help me find this house again, I would be so appreciative. Thanks in advance!
"From CD Keys to Digital Days: My Journey with The Sims 3"
As a long-time fan and supporter of The Sims franchise,I truly appreciate the creativity,freedom,and uniqueness that these games offer.The Sims 3,in particular, holds a special place in my heart.Over the years,I've spent countless hours enjoying its rich gameplay and detailed customization options. With the shift to digital platforms and newer updates like version 1.69,it's clear that EA has worked to make The Sims 3 more compatible with modern systems.This version helps eliminate many of the old issues,such as launcher problems,login errors,or CD key verifications,which often troubled users of the physical versions. However,many dedicated fans, including myself,still own and cherish the original CD versions.It's unfortunate that these older copies can sometimes face limitations or connection errors,even when we have legally purchased and supported the game from the beginning.I believe that continued support for CD versions,or a more flexible transition to digital,would be a great way to honor the loyal player base. While The Sims 4 offers new features,its aesthetic and emotional depth—especially with mods or paid content—feels different from the charm and freedom of The Sims 3.I fully support original games and continue to stay loyal,but I deeply miss playing The Sims 3 freely,without technical or internet-related issues. This isn't a complaint or criticism,but rather a hopeful message from someone who loves The Sims series and wants to see it remain accessible and enjoyable for everyone—newcomers and longtime players alike. I once wished for a little puppy...but instead, I discovered The Sims 3 Pets.And even after five years,it was one of the most wonderful experiences I’ve ever had.❤️🦋
