My imports where rarely used, my markings where not credited. My worlds got copied, shared, edited without permission. The sad thing is making custom content is not very ungrateful at some point. I made tons of imports, I made poses, now meshes, worlds and much much more. I am creating sims 3 stuff for many years now. Those things and words will never be a secret. you can talk bad about me but I will find out. I know people where angry and talking bad about me. I noticed the bad vibes against me for sure. As non of you know is why since no one has asked but everyone judged. I wanna to make a little announcement and I also wanna say something and I hope you will read it till the end.Īs many of you know my custom content is behind a pay wall. Credit would be nice, but since I’m not really around anymore that doesn’t really matter as much. I learned to make my textures from scratch so can you.Īlso, consider this carte blanche to edit any of my CC to make your own, I know people have tried to contact me previously via this Tumblr about that, but obviously, it has not been checked in a while. And please never sell anything I made for your own profit, even if you’ve edited it. So TL DR, respect the creators you use content from, even if we aren’t active anymore. I really can’t believe this even happened. So why should you? I don’t know, it just makes me really sad to think about this. I never made a single cent of money off what I did for the community, and I never did it with the expectation of making money. Sure, it’s transformative, but it’s still using my content without my explicit permission for financial gain. I am very much not okay with you editing my content or using it as a base for yours, and then profiting off of that resulting content. I am fine if you use it as a base to make your own CC.
This is completely unacceptable to me, as someone who always kept my content free and my TOU pretty loose in terms of restrictions.
Upon investigating, I confirmed this is true (I can always tell when someone is using my HD mod as a base).
It’s been brought to my attention that there’s been an instance of someone using my HD mods as a base for theirs, and then locking it behind a Patreon paywall. That’s great! That genuinely makes me happy to know that people are still enjoying what I made, even if I’m no longer in the community or directly engaging with it. I’m no longer active within these communities by any means, but I know my mods and custom content are still out there being used by the folks who are. You may know me for the various HD mods I made, or really any number of CC I made, I don’t really remember it all, but the HD mods were the big and popular ones. In case you don’t remember me, hi, I am formerly Luke Teth of the ES/EQ/Cavaletti/I don’t even know anymore - The TS3 horse community. Bloom has been reduced significantly.Didn’t think I would ever have to do this, but here I am.
Outdoor Sims skin lighting was slightly “flattened” to make Sim faces look slightly better. The color of rooms will now contribute to lighting on Sims. Shader Tweaks by Lazy Duchess: this is a set of improvements and fixes to some of the shaders. Reworked & Impreved EA lights by Simsi45: it modifies the lite resource for almost all the lamps, making the game a little bit more atmospheric and visually appealing. Icicles have a new texture Roads got bumpier and more detailed.
The terrain snow textures are entirely redone Frosty windows and glass now has more detailed frost on it it fix that annoying and ugly “Grass” patches. Snow but Betterby Lyralei: instead of the snow replacement of Wasset, I’m using this one, more detailled. Shadow Extender by Lazy Duchess: it increases the draw distance of shadows and in addition improves the look of map view by making trees and other miscellaneous deco cast shadows, when they previously did not. Improved Environmental Shadows by Simsi45 I’m using just the DYNAMIC file (the shadows respond more accurately to the sun’s position, letting them stretch further towards the horizon). The original link on his page is broken, so I just uploaded it HERE Wasset_EnchantedEnvironment_Seperated by Wasset it change the appearance of both the sun and the moon (plus adding them a beautiful “halo”), of the clouds, rainbow and stars, and few other features. UranesiaLightingMod_NOGreenSunrise+DefaultWater+BrighterNight by Nilxis : it’s the main lighitng mod. ( the pictures above are completely unretouched - no Reshade
So here is the complete list of all the lighting mods I’m currently playing with. Custom Lighting & Environment Mods for me “ What lighting mod do you use?”
