Welcome to my Sims 2 Blog!

This blog is to keep track of all my Sims 2 (TS2) stuffeths. I mostly "build" - houses, apartments, recreational, and community lots - but, I also create walls (and murals), floors, terrain paint, and various other recolors. And I've written a few tutorials too. 😁

All of my items are available through Mod the Sims - MTS2: CatherineTCJD.

Most of my stuff is also posted on Tumblr: A Peacock's Tale.

And I'm slowly adding things to Simblr: CatherineTCJD.

I also have an archive of everything I have made on SFS: CatherineTCJD.

Thank you for visiting!

Panoramic Contemporary ~ 2-step Foundation/No-Slope Basement - No CC

 Originally uploaded to MTS on July 3rd, 2020.

As I was browsing modern house designs on the web I saw a house with a roof like this - and I thought, "I gotta sim that!" So, I did. LOL! 

NOTE: HL's SimplePassageStairs are included - but only required if you want to allow large dogs to go inside the house. You do not need to install these stairs.

This is a contemporary modern home built on a 2-click Foundation with a No-Slope Basement. It has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a central 'Great Room' combined living area, and a full empty basement that your Sim can finish however they want to... It also has a back patio area that is designed with entertaining in mind! Put this lot somewhere with a nice view and invite all your neighbors over. They will love it!

The house is fully furnished and lightly decorated. All appliances, plumbing and lighting are included. The telephone is located in the kitchen. The front door is burglar alarmed. The stove and grill have smoke alarms. It is perfect for roommates!

 




This is a clean copy of this house/lot; no sim has ever lived here. The package has been cleaned with Mootilda's Clean Installer.

There is parking for three vehicles on the driveway. NOTE: Because the driveway is turned sideways, there are no driving animations. Cars will teleport to the road and back.

This is technically a "No CC" build.
2-click Foundations do not need anything special for sims to use the house.
However, if you want a Large Dog to be able to enter the house, you must have HL's SimplePassageModularStairs to allow them to get up on the lowered foundation and go inside. This lot is packaged with these stairs in place. They are invisible - I have marked their locations on the "Overview" picture below.
If you do not want to allow large dogs, or want a completely CC-Free lot - just untick the box for them in the Clean Installer before installing the lot.
NOTE: The stairs cannot be added later - without using the GridAdjuster and completely redoing the foundation/basement levels.

Thank you Mootilda - for the GridAdjuster tool, which allows us to make 1-click/2-click Foundations and No-Slope Basements.

You may want to get:
- The Lifestyle Build Bundle wallpapers/floors. (It's the second link in the top post - extracted from Lifestyle Stories by Argon @ MATY) This 'bundle' lives back in my Bins folder so it doesn't have the CC star. If you ever enter one of my builds and find it has blank/unpapered walls/floors, it is because they are from this bundle and I didn't realize it. So, either substitute the wall/floor of your choice, or go get this bundle and re-install the lot (from your lot bin.)

Pictures were taken with the following items in place, but they are NOT included:
- Invisible Driveway by Sophie-David/MTS2
- Backless Cheap Shower and Tub/combo by HugeLunatic(HL)/MTS2

Custom Content Included:
- SimplePassageModularStairs by HugeLunatic(HL)/Sims2Artists - these need a script file, follow the link and make sure you install them properly!

Lot Size: 3x2
Lot Price (furnished): $78,983
