Questions for Sims 4 players!
I think I already complained about that, but I just hate that we can't disable slot snapping in Sims 4, unlike we can do it in Sims 3. So, I'm reluctant at adding slots to decorative objects because, bam, every object you turn around will end snapped to it... I know that there's slot fillers, but well...So! My question is: Do you like better having slots on decorative objects, like books, and deal with the inconvenients? Or do you lik...

Sims 4 - Vacations Snow Globes
Time for our Simmies to go on holidays, and to bring back home some lovely snow globes from all over the world!I've always been a bit disappointed by the snow globes in game, though I liked the idea of collecting them, but just a poor alpha channel? Awww.... :(So I remade some of the existing snow globes (that you can find as new objects or as default deplacements), and I've added a lot new Sims 4 towns, like Evergreen, Henford-on-Bagley ...
Sims 3 - Vacations Snow Globes
Time for our Simmies to go on holidays, and to bring back home some lovely snow globes from all over the world!Yes, I had already made few ones for my very old Souvenir shop set, but I've revamped my previous versions and added lots of new worlds, some inspired from Sims 4 towns, of course, but that can still work in Sims 3 worlds.Including:ATS3_collection_deco_snowglobes.packageATS3_object_snowglobe_bicycle_nordhaeven.sims3packATS3_object_sn...
Sims 4 - Memorabilia I
This set is directly suggested by Amy, who had an idea I liked very much!In this first set, you'll find objects illustrating some moments of life, like baby shoes, an echography, a military pendant, a graduation hat, letter, tapes... but also different photo albums, including a year book, or a stack of pictures, or a signed wedding picture.These have been made with your collaboration as I used some of the Sims pictures you sent me! Big thanks...

ATS3 & ATS4 - Back online, but still not "updatable"
Everything is in the title!The server works, the sites are online, but I still have the FTP access problem that prevents me from uploading anything (the last two updates, then).But well, things are progressing!
Sims 4 - Marathon mini-set (Edit 6/26)
Marathon is getting a big thing in Paris, you can't walk along the Seine or the canals without people running and working out for a next marathon or semi. Did it inspire me to run a marathon myself? Dear no, but of course, it inspired me to make one in my Sims 3 game!Yeah, I'm not sure it can be very useful in Sims 4, an open world being obvisouly a better place for running a marathon, but maybe it can give you ideas for stories?So, I mad...

Dear no, but of course, it inspired me to make one in my Sims 3 game!So, I made a couple of object for that: departure & arrival arches, banners, fences... both in two versions: for the game itself, and for CAW or Edit a world. The arches have the...
ATS3 & ATS4 down
I've been trying without success to upload an update for the past 24 hours but I keep getting a FTP error, so the server (and then the sites) are now down for maintenance, hoping I'll understand soon what prevents me from uploading my updates, and the sites will get back soon online! :) Thanks for your understanding & patience!May 30th:Still no solution yet; if nothing works, I'll end up by changing of server (which takes some time to...

Sims 3 & Sims 4 - Tiny fixes for Bathroom Mess
For Sims 3, I don't know what mess I've done with my files, but it seems I didn't use the right version of the hairball (so it doesn't appear in the collection).So, I'm reuploading the right version of the hairball plus the collection file.For Sims 4, no big deal, but the split pill bottle had a wrong thumbnail, and the two tubes of cream had none. I'm reuploading these three objects with the thumbnails.

Sims 4 - Bathroom Mess
When I try to decorate a slob's house, I have hard time at making it really messy because, most of the time, even with lots of clutter, it doesn't look like "in use" enough. That's why I needed the Kitchen mess some time ago, and why I'm going to add few "mess sets" to my collection, with "in use objects", as open pot and cream tubes, scrunched lipstick...This was also part of a request, so we're at lea...

Fix - Saxophone/Trumpet Neon (Sims 3 & 4)
A tiny fix for both Sims 3 & 4!I realized that I named "Saxophone" what was indeed a "Trumpet" in the Neon sets; my first idea was to make a sax, but it didn't turn as well as expected, so I changed my mind for a trumpet and forgot to change the name. It actually doesn't change anything to the file itself, but if one day, I made a real saxophone neon, there will be name confusion, thus this tiny fix for today!
Sims 4 - Hair Care Clutter
I realized that I hadn't enough clutter around hair care to decorate my Sims bathrooms (but is "enough clutter" a possible thing? Not so sure...), so here's few basic things I needed (and I hope everyone needed to! ;)), from shampoo bottle to scrunchie, brushes...Typically "my" style, ie reminding real trademarks, but in a more cartoonish way, and purely simlish. Clearly, we're not in inZoi here! ;)Including:ATS4_objec...

Sims 4 - Neon Signs
Big collection of neon signs for various uses: shops, restaurants, home...They're wall lights, so you can adjust intensity of lighting, but of course, most important, you can change the color of the light. They come in at least 10 basic colors, with sometimes more.They're alpha, so zero poly (naaaah, OK, not zero. 8 vertices), but have a normal map, so they don't look too flat. The great thing with Sims 4 is that they're resizable...
