Blueshift TTRPG Season 1 Character Portraits (Part 1)

Since Tumblr increased the limit on image posts, I thought now would be a great time to do a couple huge portrait posts for the TTRPG I DM for my roommates! In order of appearance:

Dicho (he/him) (PC): Demon (Domain of Shadow) - A man haunted by his past, looking to remain anonymous and find what peace he can after a life of mistakes, tragedy and regrets. His wish is for a clean slate.

Greip (he/him) (PC): Celestial (In A Human Body - it's complicated) - A Moon of Saturn who is on a quest of revenge against his planet. His wish is to get his original Celestial body back.

Vivienne De'Gallant (they/them) (PC): Beast (Horse/Unicorn) - A denounced and betrayed former heir to their family's company - the Hydra-Argon Shipping Conglomerate (HASC). Their wish is to gain the power to pay back those who have wronged them.

Alcyone (he/him) (NPC): Celestial (Star/Blue Giant) - A god-like entity who resides over the demiplane known as "Lucifer's Landing". He's cruel, twisted, childish, annoying, inscrutable omnipotent and seemingly immortal. He plucked up the souls of the PCs after they were caught in a terrorist explosion, and gave them the option to either work for him or take their chances against Cross. Of course, working for him comes with the perk of "I'll grant you any wish you have."

M (they/them) (NPC): Human - A standoffish member of Lucifer's Landing who has been with Alcyone the longest. Serious and distant, they exude "I'm tired" and "leave me alone".

Chloe Godrick (she/her) (NPC): Beast (Bat/Nosferatu) - A cheerful and soft-hearted member of Lucifer's Landing. Her wish is to be with her loved ones when they need her.

Jimothy Criquette (he/him) (NPC): Human - An arms dealer with the worst luck in the world. The game's shopkeeper NPC. His wish is to have more time to pay off his debts.

Vamaserathi (she/her) (NPC): Celestial (Pulsar/Binary Pulsar) - half of a binary who was torn apart by Minerva's Celestial Experiments. She was found lost and grieving in the dark recesses of Jimothy's warehouse and ultimately brought home by the PCs.

Beryl Lovstrom (helmet & non-helmet) (she/her) (NPC): Human - A warrior and final living descendant of the great legendary figure, Dalibor Lovstrom. Stoic and strong, she wields dual hand axes.

Cross (he/him) (NPC): Celestial Demon (Death/Shadow) - The Grim Reaper who is trying to collect the souls of the PCs, which he feels are owed to him. (They DID die, after all.)

Gall (he/him) (NPC): Celestial Demon (Fire) - A powerful being who constantly has the case of the nerves. Would prefer to spend his time playing.

Ire (he/him) (NPC): Celestial Demon (Earth) - Currently subjugated by one of Minerva's experiments into Celestials. His retainer is Verpa.

Anthony Breeze (he/him) (NPC): Human - Chairman of the Hydra-Argon Shipping Conglomerate's Hacea Division. A completely average, normal and boring man.

Co (she/her) (NPC): Human (Flora Affinity) - part of a trio of gangsters who were hired to take care of any trouble that popped up during a fancy rich-person gala. She wields daggers and plants.

Blair (she/her) (NPC): Demon (Domain of Electricity) - part of a trio of gangsters who were hired to take care of any trouble that popped up during a fancy rich-person gala. She wields lightning and chains.

Powell (he/him) (NPC): Beast (Snake/Cerastes) - part of a trio of gangsters who were hired to take care of any trouble that popped up during a fancy rich-person gala. He wields venom and knives.

Carmello Irving (she/her) (NPC): Beast (Rabbit/Jackalope) - Sportball star, captain and key basketball sinker for the United Mallards.

Babe Brady (they/them) (NPC): Human (Fire Affinity) - Sportball gremlin, clean-up hitter for the United Mallards.

Junior Robinson (he/him) (NPC): Demon (Domain of Sight) - Sportball brick house, big and quiet quarterback for the United Mallards.

Lionel Platini (he/him) (NPC): Human (Water Affinity) - Sportball coward and ace goalie for the United Mallards.

Minerva (she/her) (NPC): Human - A woman with fingers in every pie who has a particular hatred for Alcyone and those associated with him.

Madame Elizabeth Doris (she/her) (NPC): Human (Air Affinity) - A socialite in a big hat who seems to be motivated by money. She hates the PCs quite a lot.

Verpa (he/him) (NPC): Human (Earth Affinity) - A ghost from Dicho's past who has found himself working for HASC, and more specifically, as an assistant to Minerva. He is the retainer of Subject 06: "Ire".

Angela Forest (she/her) (NPC): Demon (Domain of Radiation) - A HASC employee who is easily overlooked and forgotten. She worked with Minerva on her Celestial Experiments and became the retainer of Subject 04: "Therune" - the other half of Vamaserathi's binary.

Feverfew as a Suburb: A Tutorial

Just as we all did, I fell in love with @criquette-was-here ‘s Feverfew hood - I knew it would be the *perfect* addition to Whibley; a quaint European-inspired suburb that will be very important for some storytelling I have in mind.

One problem: it’s not built as a Subhood, technically speaking.

So today I did some reading about that problem; my knowledge of custom hood creation is a little above average, how hard could it be? Turns out: comically easy! You’ll be amazed!

For those who can handle the short, straight-forward answer: simply delete the “suburb” files attached to Feverfew. Boom. Yes, it’s that easy.

Read on for a more detailed answer and how-to instructions with pictures!

Note 1: For this tutorial, I assume you already know what a Subhood is, how it functions, and you have Mootilda’s subhood fix mod already installed.

Note 2: I would advise you familiarize yourself with Mootilda’s subhood tutorial HERE before starting.

Note 3: BACK UP EVERYTHING.

Step 1: Delete the “suburb” files in N127 (Feverfew):

Step 2: Rename N127 **and all of its sub-folders** to a unique Subhood ID (eg. FRFV) via Bulk Rename Utility:

Step 3: Ensure your Sims 2 game is in debug mode by adding “boolprop testingcheatsenabled true” to the userStartup text file in Config folder:

Step 4: Start your game, load into Feverfew, and enter cheat: “changeNeighborhoodType suburb”

Step 5: If the cheat succeeded - you’re almost done! Save and exit your game. If the cheat was unsuccessful, a step was missed; review Mootilda’s tutorial and try again.

Step 6: Move the newly appointed Subhood copy of Feverfew (ie. FRFV folder) to its proper home in Program Files > EP3 > NeighborhoodTemplate:

Step 7: Profit. Remember to switch off debug mode in userStartUp by changing testingcheat to FALSE before actually enjoying your game.

Important Disclaimer: I have only tested this myself, on my PC, with my game. I can’t be responsible if your game is different than mine. :)

All credit to @criquette-was-here -- Feverfew is a beautiful dream, thank you so much for sharing it with us all!

Finally I'm releasing Westbrook Cove for download! Thanks so much to everyone who's asked for it and waited for it, I appreciate you all so much! ♥ Unedited preview under the cut! Please make a backup of your game before installing.

Creating a custom 'hood and releasing it for download is not hard and not a big deal at all, but since I was doing it for the very first time, of course it wasn't all smooth sailing- hence the wait. I had to recreate it 3 times lmao, due to not knowing all the facts (silly me) but it was all in good fun honestly and I'm super happy it's finally shareable! 🐸

Sooo, this 'hood is completely clean, no characters and no stealth 'hoods or anything. It was created using the Baskerville terrain which, of course, is included. You can play it using your own defaults, but here are the ones I use that you can see in the preview pics:

these trees

these roads

this grass replacement

Some useful mods you might need:

'hood deco placed anywhere

busy roads

gunmod's camera mod

The folder with the 'hood (N025) goes to your 'Neighborhoods' folder in the Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection (or just The Sims 2)/Neighborhoods 🐛 I debated whether I should include a folder with all the custom neighborhood deco you need, but I figured that probably most of you already have all the CC needed since the buildings and houses I used have been in the community for years! So instead I have made a CC list (under the cut) so you can easily download and/or check if you already have the needed deco. 🦓

There is also a folder with 10 residential lots created just for this 'hood to match its vibe and the aesthetic. They have all been cleaned, compressed and the little CC they have is included and the preview pics are under the cut. 🦔 But, just in case, download these build mode sets (in case you don't already have them):

Bespoke

Well Crafted Windows

Townhouse Windows

Cottage Living Windows

I didn't end up placing the lots anywhere 'cause i wanted you to have the freedom to organize the neighborhood whichever way you want!

Please enjoy and have fun! I'm here if you need anything ♥

neighborhood download (sfs) // alt neighborhood download (mediafire)

lots download (sfs) // alt lots download (mediafire)

Neighborhood deco you need:

basically just get everything by Criquette, I have most definitely used all of it, but I'm sure you already have these, they're the best

these adorable houses

gorgeous veranda houses

amazing 4t2 houses

town hall & school

vervainwort buildings 1 & 2

pub

these various rabbit holes

downtown rabbit holes by curiousb

snowy escape 'hood deco

leoz94 misc conversions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

these vehicles

tennis courts and soccer fields

misc deco

forestry buildings

campus buildings

Unedited 'hood preview

Virginia Lane 6- 30,961$

Vervainwort University

As requested, here is VWU uploaded (but in brown). I had been working on turning the 3t2 university rabbit holes into lit-up deco but I decided to scrap my project for now. (Honorable mention to @itsdiamondeyesuniverse for their help. Sorry, I couldn’t finish what we started).

More info below.

WHAT’S INCLUDED:

The download includes a decorated university subhood. Also, a folder with a few community lots. There is also plenty of space to fill with lots of your own!

You can see a overhead view of the campus, and place the lots in the same spots if you wish.

^ preview pic

INSTALLATION:

Be sure to rename the files to match that of your chosen neighborhood. You can simply add the files to your chosen neighborhood’s folder. Or use Mootilda’s Hood Replace to completely alter an existing university subhood.

★ DOWNLOAD LINK ★

LIST OF HOOD DECO REQUIRED:

criquette-was-here’s Feverfew (and accompanying CC)

criquette’s Default Linden Trees

softerhaze’s Lit Uni Hood Deco

beautifulnerdkitty’s Embankment Pieces

my edit of criquette’s crosswalk (included in download)

P.S. This is my first time uploading a neighborhood. If there’s any issues, please let me know. Thanks.

Masterpost: All the Lighting Mods for The Sims 2 ✨

I'm making this post both because I like to group things under one post and because I need it as a link to add to my tracker, but still I think it will be useful for many!

Look here for other masterposts!

Lighting Mods

# Gunmod's Radiance Light System 2.4 by dDefinder on ModTheSims - A realistic, extremely dramatic, sometimes very dark lighting mod that increases the intensity of colors, lights and shadows and adds sunrise and sunset to the game (they don't exist in the vanilla game)

#Gunmod's Radiance Light System 2.5 edited by @dreadpirate - An updated version of the aforementioned lighting, with much more compatibility with many shaders and less blue nights! Every Season it have they own lighting color: Summer is vibrant, autumn has warm colors, winter has cold colors, and spring has a little yellowish "filter".

#Maxis Match Lighting Mod by Dreadpirate - The environment is more saturated and bright, removes the dull gray tint that vanilla game has. Everything is smoother and more uniform. The shadows are calm, exactly like the ones in the vanilla game. Each season has its own lighting, the nights are black instead of blue and it has many compatibility with many shaders. This one also has sunrise and sunset.

#Cinema Secret by Dreadpirate (@veronavillequiltingbee) - A perfect mix between the Gunmod Radiance and the Maxis Match Lighting mod. It use elements of both, such as the shadows and calm colors of the MM Lighting Mods but the intensity of the lights of the Gunmod Radiance (especially noticeable when using neon lights). It has many compatibility with many shaders, the nights are black instead of blue, it has sunrise and sunset and every season has its own lighting.

#SpookyMuffin Lighting Mod - Recommended by a user in the comments! I don't know how to talk about this Lighting Mod because I've never used it, but the post on the site explains what it consists of!

#The Sims 2 Beta Lighting - By opening the link you will see a YouTube video by @boringbones that will explain how to have The Sims 2 Beta lighting! (The download can be accessed from his Discord link in the video description)

#5:55 Lighting by Bugjartimedecayoff - An edit of Radiance 2.4, with much brighter outdoor lighting at night (very similar to Maxis' default night lighting) and soft peach-tinted dusk & dawn lights.

#Rae-diance Lighting by Raemia - Another edit of Radiance 2.4, with the differences being brighter nighttime lighting & brighter unlit rooms, plus reduced room-saturation.

#Original Vanilla Lighting Backup Here!

Lighting Mods for the Neighborhood

#Neighborhood Lighting Remedy by Criquette - This lighting mod is ONLY for the neighborhood and you can use it together with any of the three lighting mods mentioned above. Fixes the direction of the lights and shadows to be consistent with that of the lot imposters and makes it more consistent with lot mode.

#Accurate Neighborhood Terrain Lighting by @simnopke - This lightind mod is like the above one. It is only for the neighborhood and can be used in conjunction with a DP & dDefinder lighting mod but NOT in conjunction with Criquette's NH Lighting Remedy.

EDIT: simnopke said: "My Accurate Nhood Terrain Lighting mod does something different than Criquette's Nhood Lighting Remedy and can be used with it. Moreover, my mod has two versions intended for use with Criquette's mod."

Lighting Mods for the CAS (Create a Sim)

#Minimalistic CAS Lighting Mod Replacement with Custom Light by Dreadpirate - This lighting mod is CAS ONLY and can be used together with a dDefinder or DP lighting mod and a lightind mod for the neighborhood. Using similar lighting to the MM Lighting Mod, it makes the CAS more saturated and smooth. You have to change a value in a lights file within the game install path but it's worth it!

One small problem I've noticed is that when used with lighting mods other than the MM Lighting mod it often doesn't work well even if the value is correctly changed. For example, when I changed the lighting mod and switched from MM to Cinema Secret, it triggered the super lighted sims bug in CAS which I didn't have before. But then again, this could be just my problem. There is fix by Lazy Duchess for this bug but you need to be very careful. Sometimes it conflicts with some shaders (as in my case) and unleashes an absurd pink soup even in bodyshop even if bodyshop shouldn't have anything to do with it. But AS ALWAYS, maybe it's only a problem of mine because I'm very unlucky.

EXTRA SHADERS BUT NOT REQUIRED

#Better Nightlife by @criquette-was-here - Even if it does not change anything graphically with colors, lights and shadows like a lighting MOD it adds shaders that allow the deco hoods to light up during the night. So for example, by downloading hood decos compatible with this shader you can have street lamps that light up on the street (in the neighborhood), buildings lit up at night, lit bridges etch.

#Blue Snow No More by Dreadpirate - This shader removes the blue tint that snow creates even if you use lighting mods that make the night black instead of blue. Many DP lighting mods (Like MM Lighting Mod) have this shader already included, so you don't need to download it, this is an individual shader if you don't use their lighting mods. To be honest, neither the shader INSIDE the lighting mod nor the shader by itself has never worked for me, but I think there is a problem in my download folder at this point or I am very unlucky.

#Overly Bright CAS Fix by @lazyduchess - As I have already explained before, this mod fixes the bug of super enlightened sims in CAS. Sometimes it can conflict with something (which I don't quite understand with what) and trigger an absurd pink soup, so if you suddenly start to notice more pink soup than usual try to remove it and see how it goes.

Maybe it just conflicts with some lighting mod or some shader. In my case it could be the DP's lighting mod for the CAS.

#Moi Shader Roof by niol on ModThe Sims - This shader fixes the lighting of roofs which sometimes appear much darker than their texture. Many lighting mods from DP have this shader included OR are compatible with this shader. So check the descriptions under their lighting mods before downloading it.

#Brighter Roofs...But Not Too Bright! by Deastrumquodvicis on ModTheSims - Same as the previous shader, but makes the roofs less bright than they show with the aforementioned shader. This shader uses Moi's shader as a base, so you can NOT use both. Use only one. Many lighting mods from DP have this shader included OR are compatible with this shader. So check the descriptions under their lighting mods before downloading it.

#Moi's Neighbourhood Water Global Mod by niol on ModTheSims - This mod changes the water color of the neighborhood. Nothing more nothing less. Many DP mods are compatible with this shader.

#Pond & Sea Water Overhaul by Voeille on ModTheSims - This mod changes the water of the sea and ponds and makes it more realistic using The Sims 2 Castaway water shaders. Many DP mods are compatible with this shader but for some shaders like Better Nightlife it needs a little more attention. For example, if you use Better Nightlife you will need to use the version of these shaders provided by the Better Nightlife link to be compatible. So you have to delete these for use their shaders if you want both.

You can't use this together Moi's Water.

#A World Lit by Fire by hat_play_sims on dreamwidth - This mod itself doesn't change shaders dramatically, but it change the color of some lights and make them more sensate. I'll explain: many maxis lights that are powered by candles or should give off a warm light regardless, give off a cool, white light instead. Have you ever seen a candle emitting white light? No! This mod fixes all lights in the game and makes lights that need to be warm... warm. Perfect for history-themed saves or for the ones like me, completely obsessed with candlelight in this game. Many DP mods are compatible with this shader. It's immensely beautiful when used with the dramacity of the Radiance System but works quite well with other lighting mods as well.

Forays into Texture Shrinking

If you have looked through my Tumblr, you will see that I love to heavily decorate my neighborhoods. Which leads to a lot of pink flashing and unplayability. After @polygonbeach recently shared Lowedeus' neighborhood skies with reduced texture sizes, I wanted to overhaul all my neighborhood deco to see if it would make a difference to playability of the game and aesthetics.

[DISCLAIMER]- Please be aware that Tumblr has reduced the quality of the pictures somewhat, and they appear more blurry on here than they do just sitting on my desktop.

This is my main neighborhood (WIP) Myrthspire, unedited picture taken last year. All neighborhood deco uses the original texture sizes, mostly 2048 or 1024.

This is Myrthspire this morning, taken after all neighborhood deco has been reduced in texture size by at least half (or more in some cases).

I think the biggest difference is the neighborhood horizon, which is definitely not as crisp.

Close up, you can see the loss of quality a bit with the neighborhood terrain and beach textures.

The stone wall now has a texture size of 512, with no noticeable loss of quality. The textures on Criquette's trees are not also 512 or 248, and although they are not as crisp, they are tolerable (for me!).

Popping in to Earthdrift, and again the most noticeable loss of quality comes down to the neighborhood horizon (which I also de-saturated a bit to fit with the terrain a bit better), terrain and beach.

Greatcheesecakepersona's seasonal fields have had their textures shrunk and don't seem the worse for it.

Over in Brittleshore, the horizon is definitely not as crisp, but not a disaster.

Before:

After:

And finally, to Darkmont. The first pic was taken last year with all texture sizes at their original.

This was the neighborhood that I thought reducing the texture size would be most noticeable. But, there doesn't seem to be much of a difference at all!

Probably the horizon, but the horizon is a bit hard to see behind the terrain mountains anyway, so I wouldn't know the difference.

Close up, there doesn't seem to be any difference, even with rock texture shrunk and stone wall texture halved.

Ultimately, I think the benefit (or not) will come in during game play. If I can get through a days playing with little or no pink flashing, it will be worth it, even for the small loss of quality of the background.

What do you all think?

◆ 200 Essential Sims 2 Mods, Defaults and Fixes ◆

I have just reinstalled my game and currently reorganizing downloads folder. I thought that it could be helpful to share the resources that I use. If you're starting over just like me, good luck! We can do it :D

All the mods are listed in the random order. But important ones go first. I also added tiny descriptions of what each mod does. Also, let me know if you notice that some of these mods conflict. I’ll appreciate ♥

Exercise Tweaks - fixes energy drain for some machines/activities.

Batbox - there are many fixes. But I mostly use it to fix First-Born Syndrome. It’s a bug that causes all children born to the same 2 parents to look exactly the same. Save your game. Pick "Fix..." and then "Rerandomize Sim Generator." The game will boot you out of the lot, which is why you need to save the game first. Go back to the lot and give birth.
