Around the Sims 3 | Advent Calendar 2020: itās starting!!!
Here we are again! The famous time of the Advent Calendar! :D So, you might already know how it works: every day, from the 1st to the 24th of December, youāll find at Around the Sims 3 new objects to download. From your 1stĀ December, not from mine, so it might not be time yet for you now! ;) All the objects are available for 24 hours only, and then are replaced by a new download. No worries, though, all the objects are getting available again from the 25th of December (my 25th, but I shouldnāt be very busy with Christmas celebrations this yearā¦) Something new, though: all the gifts can also be found, on Patreon, and there, they donāt disappear after 24 hours, so if you missed a day and donāt have the patience to wait till Christmas, youāll find them there. :) Thank you for your support! <3
I hope youāll enjoy the gifts (all based on Patreonsās suggestions) and that youāll spend some happy times, even if the circumstances this year might be very special, depending on where you live.

We are not staying silent and we are definitely not accepting any kind of racism.We need justice for all the lives that have been taken and for all the horrible times that we have been through. The world is broken and even though this is only a tiny step forward, it is a start for something big. If we all stick together, watch out for each other and pull up for those that are in need of help..we can make this world better. Staying silent in those kind of times, just means you are totally fine with what is going on. I see you all, all those who prefer to go to fancy events and posting their fashion pics instead of marching with us. Pull up!
E-lipgloss-GLAZE-131128 (edit)
I really like this glaze by ephemera but the original has lavender undertones that donāt translate well in terms of light colours. I tweaked the .DDS in photoshop and was quite pleased with the result. The top row of photos show the original and the second row is the edit, corresponding colours under its respective partner. This replaces the original and of course, all credit goes to the frighteningly talented ephemera.

My First Time and Iām so EXCITED! š¤
12 Days of Christmas!
Iām very excited I have the time and energy to do this, this year. Christmas is my favorite time of the year and I feel like itās a nice way to give back to all of you for all the love and support throughout the years. I hope youāre as excited as I am!
how it works;
Basically, I will be releasing new content every single day for 12 days during the holidays. Starting December 25th, 2019 to January 5th, 2020.
As I said, this is all for you more than any other time. So keep in mind that submissions are opened as always and your ideas and suggestions are more than welcomed! =>submit your suggestions here<=
Happy Holidays!
So I found this program on my computer: s3rc redux, and decided to run all my packages through it (not mods, poses or sliders). It reduced my CC by 7.5GB without me deleting anything. All items still work so far, although I havenāt checked all functionality.
But if someone wants to reduce their CC easily, then I have uploaded the s3rc here, as the original here is down. Just drag and drop .packages (and sims3packs) onto it :D
But backup just in case!
So you might all realize that skins are probably the biggest files you have in game. This is because they usually contain a load of HQ images.
BUT
Most people donāt know that when using Skininator, you need to āCompact Saveā not āSaveā. What this does, is if your skintone uses the same image for dark and light, or the same images for teen/YA/A/E, instead of saving the image multiple times, it only saves one copy, and then links to that picture for the rest.
This saves A LOT of space!
So if you wanna quickly reduce CC, then just open all your skins in Skininator one by one, and press āCompact Saveā, then open the next. I saved around 2-3GB doing this!
This probably wonāt make your game load much faster, but it is still worth it.
thank you so much for your cc you post for the sims 3 community!!!
Itās always a pleasure to share my Custom Content with you guys. The Sims 3 community need more attention, we still alive, we need to support other creators, sharing, replying, sending love to them. Thank you so much for sending me your love ā„ļø
Hey everyone! My Tumblr ādesiree-ukā has been terminated. I donāt know why, I just tried to log into it this morning and I see āThis account has been terminatedā. Iām so pissed! There was nothing wrong with it as far as I know. Iām waiting for an explanation from @staff, and hopefully I can get my account reinstated. 7 years of posts and reblogs gone!
So, I found tutorials on how to hide things from the catalog that requires manually opening and editing each package using s3pe, but Iāve found a somewhat faster way to do this, whilst keeping the original file unchanged, that I havenāt seen anyone else mention, so thought Iād share (I mean, someone else has almost certainly worked this out before me but I couldnāt find it anywhere). This requires CCMagic, and an understanding of how to make collections using CCMagicĀ (very straightforward), and s3pe. Doing this will mean you can find all the items in collections, but they wonāt be clogging up your catalog, eg Misc Decor (I had to do this as my Misc Decor had become so full, it often crashed my game when loading haha).
(This is also possible if you manually merge your CC, but you will have to add them to collections however you do that without CCMagic, I assume in game.)
Now, this is still a rather tedious process, and goddamn if someone could just create a program to do this for us I would die of gratefulness lol. But anyway, itās still faster than the other method. And hey, maybe this will help someone š:

Thank you Sandy, always look forward to this at the end of every year š¤ā¤ļø Canāt Wait!
If you chatted with me not so long ago, I had probably told that I wouldnāt do an Advent calendar this year. Too much stress in RL, not enough time, too much work, not enough support, too much this, not enough that⦠So, instead, it was supposed to be a ā12 days before Christmasā. But then, I thought to people who might expect that advent calendar, who might come to my site the 1st of December, hoping finding something and who would be disappointed⦠It broke my heart! So, I changed my mind, and youāll get a complete Advent calendar, just as usual, even if it means I wonāt sleep before a while!Ā :D The āideaā of the year was to re-do what I had done for my very first Advent calendar, for Sims 2, about 10 years ago (yeah, I know, do you hear my bones cracking?), with āhiddenā gifts: you see the gift wrapping and you have a hint about whatās inside, but you donāt see immediately what you download. But you still can get a preview if you like better knowing! Anyway, you download the gift wrapping and the mystery gift. :)
Youāll find tiny gifts or much bigger ones, depending if they were planned or not (or if I slept or not! ;))
Reminder: New objects to download every day from the 1st to the 24th of December.Theyāre available for 24 hours only, but donāt worry if you missed one, all the objects will be available again from the 25th of December! ;)
Gifts will be the same for Sims 3 and Sims 4 (with eventually different functions, though). Around the Sims 3 Around the Sims 4
(and donāt forget you can support the sites, so I know you enjoy the Advent calendar! ;D)
PS: I post this on the 29th of November, so thereās nothing yet to see on the sites. Itās just to be sure youāll be ready! ;)
Make yourself here and tag other people! Thank you so much @simshai91 for tagging me, this was so much fun to create. This is also my first challenge tag so Iām over the moon right now š¤ āØ
Donāt really know much people on here but I tag @missy-hissy @rollo-rolls and @aurorasimsworld plus anyone else who wants to do it feel free - or not 8DāØ
YouTube, Hulu, reading and of course play the Sims3 keeps me going. Hope everyone is staying safe ā¤ļø
