TSR CC Recommendations: TS2 Lot Builders
Nobody asked for this but I have a little time on my hands and I said I might do it, so here is a list of some TSR lot builders who I recommend checking out. A few notes under the cut before we get started (all details under the cut, as well, in case you aren't interested in my preamble):
This is not meant to be paid promotion for TSR. I believe TSR asking users to pay for their CC is ridiculous, especially for a 19 year old game they haven't supported in 7 years. But I spent many years uploading there during the peak-TS2 / pre-TS3 era and know there is great CC in their archives that newer players may not know about. And unlike TheSims2.com, which has sadly shuffled off this mortal coil, TSR's content is still available to freely download (assuming you can stomach the pop-ups and wait times)
This post will only be about lot builders because that was what I was primarily uploading and downloading in this era. I was friendly with some of the creators I am about to list, but none of them are still active members of the TS2 community.
The preview pics might be a little rough and the architecture styles will likely feel very dated compared to the most popular styles these days, which are more colorful, cluttered, and use 3t2 and 4t2 conversions. Re: the previews: too many of us were using free trials of PaintShopPro back then, and TSR limited us to 2 previews, so we did our best. Re: the styles: unlike pre-2010's CAS CC, which was full of hand painted and "realistic" textures (LOL), these are the same objects you can find in the game today, just being used in different ways! Sometimes for the first time! And, yes, while some of these creators used CC, it was mostly Homecrafter walls and floors, as you'll see below.
This was also the hey-day of CFE lot building, which has certainly fallen out of favor to more traditional builds (in part because graphics cards have improved and these types of builds don't look as good in 2024, and also because the great CFE experimenters, builders, and tutorial writers are no longer part of the community and their original discoveries are gone as well - I am happy to go down a massive rabbit hole on this piece of TS2 history if anyone else cares, but trust me, you don't have to care).
Alright that is enough caveating, here are some recs! (Links are in the creator's names and they take you to their Lots, though many of them have other creations, too).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lord Tiko Speaking of great CFE builders! Lord Tiko built spaceships, boats, pagodas, domes, windmills and bridges, oh so many bridges before retiring mid-TS2 because of health issues. He was one of the first builders to take Daihtnaoz7's single and double bridge tutorials and apply them to really big lots. I'm still not sure how he built the Venice Rialto Bridge, or his other European water lots. Overall, a massive inspiration to me when I was prioritizing CFE builds.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hatshepsut My favorite "traditional" home builder, and someone I considered a friend. She specialized in English and American builds, and I had many of Hat's houses in my old saves and was impressed by her range and decorating style which was (for the time) more varied than many of her peers. Knew how to take great preview pics of her houses, too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tigerblue Another builder I corresponded with, Tigerblue was probably the least prolific uploader on this list for sheer number of uploads, but she also crossed a range of styles. Her builds leaned way into specific styles (see the previews, these were all part of consistent sets of 3,4, or even 10 lots), but this was also what happened when a new EP dropped and everyone raced to uploaded builds using as many of the new objects and styles as possible. Tigerblue just happened to be better at it than most of us.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cyclonesue Do current TS2 players know Cyclonesue? Because it's hard to think of someone who had a bigger impact on building and decorating of the era, first with her English and Tudor builds and later with her extremely distinct grunge creations. Seriously, check out her Urban Renewal series and the corresponding objects. Iconic stuff that surely now feels frozen in time. I probably only played 20% of her lots that I downloaded, but they still make for great hood decor. Like Tiko, someone who happily experimented with CFE.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Illiana The creator who inspired me to make this list is, ironically, the one on it who I know the least about (she is a Featured Artist but not in the Hall of Fame, whatever that means). I just started playing her Tri-Annyas fraternity house and have a few other lots floating around my game. She built in a range of styles, from classical to modern to Twikki Island to grunge. Revisiting some of them in-game, the TSR previews do not do them justice.
*EXHALES* If you made it to this point, kudos to you. I'm sure there are creators I've forgotten, and houses I haven't linked to, but this is a good starting point for digging into some of the eclectic builds the TSR(chives) have to offer (I just coined that, is it clever? It is not). Maybe I'll do a Part 2 if people like this.
If you have any favorites of your own, let me know what I missed! And as I do with my old Exchange re-uploads, I am tagging @sims2packrat and @oldasscustomcontent for general TS2 history awareness!

Toddler Bed Addons For A Few CC Sets
I was cleaning out some cc in the kids section, and making a few toddler beds has been on my projects list for a while so I '''''cleaned''''' my downloads by making more cc. I picked sets that have several objects and nursery items. I cloned them Michelle's teak toddler bed which is a clone of Rebecah's pine toddler bed. The beds make toddler management easier buy letting them go to bed and get up on their own. They change into sleepwear right before getting in bed and back to everyday after getting up.
Included toddler beds for:
Art deco store set. Repo'd to the double bed. Also works well with lunie's art deco addon crib and changing table.
Veranka's Bubu set. Repo'd to BuBu Kitchen Master.
Sims2Play's Hansen set. Repo'd to the double bed. It should work regardless if you have the double bed from hafi's repo'd set, hodadk's repod'd set or some archive of the original. I know jacci made one back in 2011, but I made my own since I prefer how the beds based on Beck's pine bed work.
Moune's Torrox set. Repo'd to the Torrox dining chair.
All files are compressed with included preview and main meshes. I renamed 3 of the main meshes so watch out for duplicates in your download folder.

The Sims 2 For Rent - CC EXPANSION PACK
Tumblr media
Sul Sul!
~ More photos under the under the cut ~
Last week the Sims 4 got a new pack, this week Sims 2 players get that same pack! In a collaboration with @platinumaspiration and @tvickiesims and a HUGE assist from @episims, we bring you "The Sims 2 For Rent CC Expansion Pack!"
This is a large set, and advisable that it does not get merged even further than it already is! - I ran into some issues when trying to do this!
When you explore this pack, please take a look at the marble ring rug, it has some surprisingly cute rug swatches! I put a swatch in it to remove the marbles themselves, so you have a cute small rug! - I only mention this as I was going to bin the rug off once uploaded, but then I found it had some lovely swatches!
FUNCTIONALITY
So most of the items will function as they should and intended as. Its just not just deco items.
There is two collection files included, separated into build buy! Please note that fences and stairs and spandrels cant be but into a collection!
The squatty toilet that took me over 12 hours to make, yeah they squat, animation can be a bit bouncy but such is life. This toilet also can be flushed, get dirty and is cleanable!
Outdoor plants are seasonal!
Counters are animated with insides built, there is no drawer on the counter, I did not want to change the shape of the unit, and saw EA did the same - ignore the fact they grab something from a non existent drawer
Wardrobes have interiors elements, and have working doors!
Each Kettle have two versions, choose only one, one for the colour traits mod / one 'normal'. They function as Tea makers! Huazzah!
Spandrels in build mode are classified as fences. I made a variant with fence / no fence.
Several of the larger deco pieces such as the Arch Gate, or umbrella are actually lights!
Radiators act like radiators!
The Aircon Unit is completely functional, doesn't lower bills, but it does lower sims temperatures!
"Water Heaters" act like solar panels, they get money off your bills!
The Electrical Fuse box has 2 versions, I kept them both in, one wall deco and one functions as a burglar alarm - I wanted more alarms.
Most Sofas / Chairs have morphs!
Slots added to the Vanity and Bathroom Cabinet!
FENCES / SPANDRELS / STAIRS OH MY!
I have included swatch images of each of the spandrels, fences and stairs and labelled them to match, this is so that you can go in and take out any of the swatches you do not want. This is because there are lot of new fences and the menu can feel cluttered with them in for some people.

Recolours: 3t2 Roaring Heights and misc. Jazz Age objects in Cluedo's palette.
Here's a bunch of recolours I made of @veranka's and @crispsandkerosene's conversions of RH objects and Ladysimplayer8 Jazz Age stuff so it would match the Cluedo defaults I have in my game.
What's included?
17 recolored masters from RH: bookcases and shelves, curtains, round wall pieces, lamps, picnic table and bench, park benches, mailbox cover, a table umbrella, wall column, two decorative architecture pieces, a potted palm and two paintings (in art deco themes, featuring Tamara de Lempicka's art, random uncredited stuff I grabbed on Pinterest and screenshots from @alexbgd, @enable--llamas and @unsimspirational).
6 recolored masters from the Jazz Age set from the store: a bar and barstool, curtains, coffee table, living chair and sofa.
DOWNLOAD (SFS)
If you would rather have beautiful blue flashing textures (great for nightclubs!) instead of my ugly, sad recolors for the Jazz Age objects, just don't grab the required meshes from here and you'll get 'em.
Most of the file size is due to the swatches, the recolors themselves are pretty small.
All files compressed and clearly named.
I didn't think I would share this when I recolored the stuff, so I renamed the meshes. Check manually for duplicates.

I've been building a townhouse all day today and these have been invaluable to me today!
Seasoned TS2 builders/players will no doubt recognise them, but I only recently discovered them, and thought it might be useful to share them, along with download links with you all. 😇
Tumblr media
First one is 'Tile Blocker'.
It's as simple as the name suggests. This one stops sims walking into the tile where you've played this big red brick. Of course it has an invisible recolour, like OMSPs. This is useful in instances say, where a dresser's mesh overhangs another tile, so you can stop a sim being router, so they don't walk through the object.
Example of it being used here.
You can download it here.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Second one(s) are Slot Blocker/SlotBlocker and serve the same purpose.
I have many surfaces in the townhouse, where I don't want to put items, but I don't want sims to place items there either. There are two different types and I downloaded both.
Tumblr media
I found that the SlotBlocker (pictured above) appears on more areas than the first one, but I do have Moar Slots installed. The first link is part of a Counter Completers set.
Slot Blocker can be downloaded here.
SlotBlocker can be downloaded here.

And last, but by no means least, are these beauties. These were a shock that I'd not heard of them before. I actually found them off TeaAddict's videos, but she mentioned that AniBats had used them in her Pleasantview series videos.
These are Object Rotators. 😍
Basically, they let you rotate for even more increments, so not just at 45 degree angles.
Tumblr media
For example, I got this chair to be at a fair gentler angle to the dresser than if you'd not used them. There are three different sizes for differently sized objects, only 1 tile objects sadly atm.
The set I have can be downloaded here.
However, in searching for the link for this post, I saw these as well, which I assume serve the same purpose..? 🤔 I've not used them but thought I'd link them just in case anybody else was interested.

The whole business of turning OSMPs invisible and then having to find them again in buy mode always puts me off from using them. Thanks to Lamare's tutorial, this will now be done automatically!
These OMSPs will automatically turn invisible when entering live mode and become visible again when entering buy/build mode. They are edits of JohnBrehauts More OMSPs and Even More OMSPs sets. Filenames are identical, so you can just let them overwrite the original files if you already have those in your game.
If you download the invisible recolors from the original sets, you can recolor them like you normally would and the recolor will stick when switching between live mode and build/buy. This is especially useful for lot builders who want to include OMSPs in their builds but don't take pictures with a family living on the lot.

I'm back with part 2 of Gloomy Spring, a 4t2 collection of items for those who enjoy the botanical, the antiquated, and the macabre! This time, we're outside in the garden....
This collection consists of a lot of 4t2 conversions of Romantic Garden Stuff! They were originally done by Ladysimplayer8, Linacherie, and TNW! I simply added the recolors Luned did for ts4 (if you play ts4, seriously check their stuff out. Their plant recolor collections are a must!).
You also get a cafe dining set by Alialsims, a skeleton by Serinion, and an open diary by Joyceisfox! All converted by moi...
SFS (65.4 mb, swatches included so you can keep/discard what you want!)
Have a haunting and boo-tiful spring!

Pool Edge and Floor Recolors

There's 6 recolors of the edges and floors to match the slide recolors and shasta's purple one. I also edited the edge files to disable the outdoor shadows.
Meshes are included. All files are compressed with included swatch and preview. Swatch
