Part of a posing dry run for a project for a certain someone. This is a superimposition of bowing poses on a hurdy-gurdy object, because I wanted to.
I then realized that fiddles are medieval on their own, but I had already set myself on the hurdy-gurdy, so...eh. I admit the erasing was not done well. My model also ought to be wearing a veil, or crispinettes, or something, but I liked the hair too much to do that.
These inaccuracies aside, I think it looks quite nice.

I made this a while ago but was too lazy to put it up for download yet. This file contains household and lot, just put the package in your library file. No CC used, except from some store objects. Mostly it's just deco clutter, but you'll need the chicken coop if you wan't Pettsons chicken to show up, otherwise it will be replaced. No TOU but it would make me happy if you tag me when you use it. Have fun! Download on Simfileshare Download on Mediafire

I put a lot of effort into the kissing part of this animation, did I need to? No, but did I want to? Absolutely! 💋
Yes that’s right! There is a way to make the Sims 3 run faster!
Nitromon over at Mod the Sims has found a program that allows you to ‘unpark’ your drives- allowing your game to take advantage of more of your CPU.
Used in combination with Overwatch, Save Cleaner and a whole bevy of other fixes, you’ll be enjoying faster gameplay from now on!
Quick n’ Easy Tutorial
Download & install ParkControl (Here: https://bitsum.com/parkcontrol/)
Run the program
Under Parking AC & Parking DC, disable both options. Click Apply. Don’t touch anything else.
That’s it! Now enjoy buttery-smooth gameplay and less lag!
When I’m done, I usually turn Parking AC & Parking DC back on until the next time I play.
Original thread here: http://modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=571180
Read it for more details and if you have any questions. Toss me a message to let me know how it goes!
Special thanks to Nitromon for finding this software.
FYI this program does not alter any Sims game files- it changes whether or not your computer puts aside CPU cores to extend battery life (which doesn’t matter since you’re probably going to be plugged in for the Sims 3).
Windows 7 is programmed to use 4 cores at any time, so don’t worry about any parked cores being used for background tasks. If you’re concerned about your computer, set the percentage under Parking AC/DC to leave one core parked. If you’re using a laptop like I am, I would also suggest using a temperature monitoring software like Speed Fan or Core Temp regardless of whether or not you unpark your drives.
If your drives are already unparked, if you have Windows 8+, or you have a computer that can barely run the Sims 3, then this program likely won’t help. Read the MTS thread for a more thorough explanation and discussion.
I found that:
Loading times were improved
Catalogue items, Create-a-Style & Create-a-Sim loaded up faster
Gameplay was faster & smoother
Instead of 4 cores, I was able to fully use 8 cores. Obviously this will differ depending on your computer CPU.
For anyone with doubts- just back up your Sims 3 Documents folder before trying this!

Garden Poses & Lilly of the Valley Conversion by Keibea
Hello! This is a small gift I made for all of you for supporting me and just being wonderful <3 It took me ages to find something I wanted to make and could make, and in the end I came up with this small posepack! I also converted the incredibly talented @serenebluesims 's lilly of the valley accessory! Thank you so much to them for letting me do this! This is my first time making poses and converting an accessory, so there may be a few problems. However, I've checked everything in my game and there aren't any issues I've come across (besides small clipping with the poses). Let me know if you find anything wrong, or have any issues - I'm happy to help!
I hope you all like it! Thank you for being incredible!
Lilly of the Valley Accessory ~

- In the bracelet category (no thumbnail for some reason (instead, an EA generated one), not sure how to fix this, sorry!)

T.O.U.
Get a big sniff o' that pollen, for flower arranging has arrived to Sims 3!
To start, purchase the Flower Arranging Table from Buy mode in Hobbies and Skills.
Before a Sim has learnt the Flower Arranging Skill, you can Dabble at the table until you get a skill point. Then after that, you can start making flower arrangements, learning new ones as you skill up.
This mod comes with 15 new harvestables - all flowers converted from Sims 4. These are used to make the arrangements.
There are a lot of flower arrangements you can make - I converted ~40 from the Sims 4, and there are 3 made from Seasons' Wildflowers. Once made, they give off a nice scent for Sims around them, but after some time (default 48hrs) they will start to smell and attract flies, so you might want to throw them away then.

I always thought Aurora Skies was one of the better themed worlds that EA released, but it’s a huge shame that they never fixed the issues with snow- in a Nordic-themed world nonetheless!
I mean, this is just awful, right? (Original Aurora Skies)
I know that there’s already some cloned fixed versions out there, but I prefer fixing the original over getting a duplicate in the world selection menu. Anyways, this was something I had in mind for awhile, and I’ve finally gotten the time to fix it!
World Information
Snow issues have been fixed.
A decrappified version of Aurora Skies was used as the base.
Very small tweaks here and there to consolidate props and fix pathing.
Reduced number of effects and spawners to improve performance.
New ‘bramble’ textures and ‘Iceland-esque’ flag for even better theming.
Routing has been refined to remove stray routing dots.
New ferry terminal lot. I found it strange that there was no way of getting to or off Aurora Skies- until now! A great use of the lot is to create a tour boat for sightseeing!
Expanded routing around the island- you can now drive that tour boat all the way around the island and far away as well. There’s no reason to restrict camera movement on an island anyways.
Check this thread out for lots to put into the world!
As with all EA worlds, I highly suggest you turn off stray animals.
Installation Instructions
Back-up your original “Aurora Skies.world” file. This is located in the Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\InstalledWorlds folder. If anything goes wrong, restore this file to the InstalledWorlds folder.
Place the new “Aurora Skies.world” into the InstalledWorlds folder. You will need to start a new game to see the changes.

Special thanks to @mspoodle1 and @littlefrenchsims for testing the world!
Enjoy! If you want, you can help me with living expenses here!
Tired of your sims walking aimlessly through town? No friends, no hobbies, no purpose? Put an end to their lack of a fulfilling social life by creating a million and one clubs for them to join and/or get kicked out of!
With 50+ activities for you to push, including activities from over 10 different mods, and 4 specialised club types, you can create almost any club you can think of: book clubs, invite-only hangouts, afterschool clubs and more! Grow memberships, take part in tournaments and ship cute little subscription gifts straight to your sim’s door.
Note: This mod is very extensive, so please thoroughly read the documentation in the download that I’ve painstakingly written up.
Compatibility: Should be base game compatible however expansion packs, store content and mods add more content.
7 New Objects: Credit to @aroundthesims who has generously allowed me to use her items as well as @twinsimming who converted 2 items for me. Full credit in the documentation.
Testers: @desiree-uk who not only tested the mod, but contributed ideas for club activities, the banking system and the subscription gift system. @simsdeogloria who kindly offered to test the mod and caught some bugs that I had completely missed.
Credits: Full credit in documentation. However, thank you to @olomayasims, IcarusAllsorts, Arsil, Buzzler & @zoeoe-sims, @anitmb, @greenplumbboblover, @flotheory as I push some of their mods as activities.
Club Types
Custom Club: Push specific activities (or no activity at all) and watch your active and inactive club members congregate and do said activities. Push bowling, swimming, rumba, nectar drinking, collecting, studying, music lessons, among many other things.
Subscription-Only Club: While members won’t meet up, force them to pay a subscription fee to the club owner for your own purposes. Consider: food subscription service, council-tax payments, school fees.
Book Club: Choose a book for the book club. Your sims will sit together, have discussions, and read said book.
Formal Gathering Club: Set musicians and/or a speaker (podium or pulpit). Have your club members sit down and act like they’re listening to said musicians and speaker. Choose a skill to increase while the club is in operation.
Club Vibes
Clubs can have different vibes depending on the cost and activities, attracting or repelling different types of sims. There are sports, games, intellectual, low-brow and high class clubs. Some personalities will be more inclined to join than others.
Customising Clubs
Set different open days, open hours, required club outfits, subscription fees, gender, age, career and trait requirements/restrictions, forbidden actions etc.
Autonomy
Allow or restrict autonomy in different ways. Make clubs open or closed invite, allowing or disallowing sims to join, leave, or be kicked out of clubs with or without your own input. Put club boards around town and let sims browse. Impress observers by having a great club session and watch them beg to join!
Tournaments
Win tournaments and gain club acclaim. Get cash prizes, find yourself in the newspaper, and find out if any of your fellow club members are playing for the opposing team. Your own sim isn’t exempt from the repercussions of being a club traitor!
Banking
Create Bronzo accounts for your sims. You can link these accounts to schedulers and have the club fee delivered straight into the account. Take out loans, find the best interest rates online and stay out of your overdraft. Try not to get your account details stolen at the all new ATMs that you can place around town and don’t leave your debit card laying around near strangers!
