Hi there y'all! Since the last update for The Sims 4, burglars are back (10 years later-), and with them, a nice burglar alarm. This item got my attention and I wanted to port it to The Sims 2, but I don't had the game installed because ~Hard Drive Space issues~. However, I found the model out there, so I decided to port it finally!
I've found a few problems with it at the time to port to The Sims 2. For example, originally the led screen was attached to the green/red led, with no editions at all, which made the entire alarm to look green! Then, my second option was to simply edit the mesh and add it over the base alarm, so yeah, behind the led screen theres the actual turned off alarm, very clever! So I believe that if you didnt paid your bills and they cut the lights, I think the turned off screen wil be shown instead (didn't tested).
(The video is an old version with no glow)
It will switch between blue and orange (depending if a burglar activated it or not), however, sound effect couldn't be replaced with the TS4 version. If the cops arrives in time, the alarm will be deactivated and switch back to blue.
In order to make it functional, you'll need to download the Custom Burglar Alarms by MidgetheTree, otherwise, it's just a nice paperweight with no use :)
Description:
A state-of-the-art Burglar detector that can be upgraded with all the fanciest features. Helps you sleep safe and sound, unless a Burglar is spotted. Also effectively wakes the whole family up, as it should. Very, very loudly. Buy one for any door the Burglar could enter from!
Mesh and textures were converted by me.

I couldn't stop myself from giving this mod such an awful title. xD
This mod gives children and teenagers a chance of bringing home school project instead of standard written homework.
There are in total 6 school projects converted from TS4 Parenthood: bridge, castle, electricity, rocket, solar system and volcano.
Kids have a chance of bringing the following three projects: castle, solar system and volcano. Teens have a chance of bringing the following three projects: bridge, electricity and rocket.
Chance of bringing a school project is by default 20%, but it can be tuned in BCON "Tuning - School Project" of group 0x7FBE051B and instance 0x0000200A.
School projects take longer to finish (by about 1/4 longer), but are more rewarding, letting your Sims gain some skills, hobby enthusiasm and even badges, making school actually useful. 😉
Bridge makes your Sims gain mechanical skill and tinkering enthusiasm.
Castle makes your Sims gain creativity skill and arts enthusiasm.
Electricity makes your Sims gain mechanical skill, robotery badge and tinkering entusiasm.
Rocket makes your Sims gain logic skill, toy making badge and science enthusiasm.
Solar system makes your Sims gain mechanical skill and science enthusiasm.
Volcano makes your Sims gain logic skill and nature enthusiasm.
Skill, badge and enthusiasm gain isn't that great, but it's there.
You won't see the skill meter above your Sim's head, because apparently there can be only one meter at a time.
Sims have a chance of making school project of one of three qualities: poor, good and excellent.
The outcome depends on skill and badge corresponding the project, getting help with school project (but it only counts if it happens during quality check) and traits:
clumsy Sims will always get penalty,
technophobes wil get penalty when working on electricity and rocket,
'can't stand art' Sims will get penalty when working on castle,
geniuses and perfectionists will always get bonus,
handy Sims will get bonus when working on electricity and rocket,
artistic and avant garde Sims will get bonus when working on castle.
Bonuses do not stack. Penalties also don't. So if your Sim is genius and perfectionist, they will get only one bonus. Bonus and penalty can cancel each other out.
When making castle, your SIms will hold a crayon instead of a pencil. While working on the electricity project Sims will hold a screwdriver. In case of other projects Sims will still use pencil, because I haven't decided what else would fit. 😅
If you use smonaff’s Fall Asleep While Doing Homework, Sims who have fallen asleep can't make a project of excellent quality - it will be good at best.
Additionally, if you have @earlypleasantview's conversions of TS4 School Projects in your downloads, upon completion of a project a project will be placed in your Sim's inventory. The only exception is the castle as various qualities are recolors of the object, so you will have to manually set the recolor you want it to be.

if you are using smonaff's Fall Asleep While Doing Homework, choose plug-in called zz_Meduza_Smonaff_HomeworkProjectFallAsleep and make it load after both my mod and smonaff's mod,
if you are using @episims' Pencils by Color Traits, choose plug-in called zz_Meduza_Epi_SchoolProject_ColorPencils (or zz_Meduza_Epi_SchoolProject_ColorCrayonPencil if you are also using @episims' Activity Table Crayons by Color Traits) and make it load after both my mod and Epi's mod,
if you are using @episims' Activity Table Crayons by Color Traits, choose plug-in called zz_Meduza_Epi_SchoolProject_ColorCrayon (or zz_Meduza_Epi_SchoolProject_ColorCrayonPencil if you are also using Epi's Pencils by Color Traits) and make it load after both my mod and Epi's mod.
This mod is not compatible with Cyjon's Harder Homework. There's no compatibility plug-in as of now. Maybe I'll make one later, but right now I'm dead inside after converting 40 meshes. 😫
When project's model changes Sims arms are bent under weird angle for a moment.
Thanks to @lordcrumps for supplying me with meshes and textures for school projects from TS4 Parenthood!

really cute and versatile set in some more realistic woods and my fave palette for woods. a before and after img under the cut.
the polys are pretty low (they're like 2k at most i blv). texture sizes for the wood is 1024px and the glass is 512px. all have working mipmaps.
i know the glass looks a little iffy but i had to manually separate the design from the transparency which took forever to get right so pls know i tried my best xd
also, im aware that the centre and the bookshelf have identical textures and i made recolours for them each, but i couldn't repository them in my usual method and i just dont have the patience for doing it manually, srry!
i included kestrelteens' original collection file in case you dont have it and the meshes are included too. make sure to visit their original post for more details!

MISE À JOUR DU PACKAGE DU SIM BLENDER
Veuillez le réinstaller. Une erreur de saut de ligne dans le fichier Dialog prim string set rendait les informations demandées complètement incohérentes avec l'action demandée.
Merci à @barbiepinklady de m'avoir averti.
Sul sul !
S'il y a bien quelque chose que nous savons, c'est que Les Sims comportent beaucoup de mods intéressants qui modifient grandement l'expérience de jeu. Cependant, un manque existe dans la communauté française des Sims 2 : la traduction des mods et contenus personnalisés en français.
Je déposerai désormais sur ce post des mods et contenus personnalisés entièrement traduits en français, afin que plusieurs puissent en profiter.

A replacement for OFB craftable bouquets with models from Sims 4.
It's not compatible with other flower replacements and recolors and everything repositoried to them. It is however compatible with @hugelunatic's buyable flowers. I also updated the height of the smoke fx on snapdragon, you'll need to remake/rebuy it for the changes to apply correctly.
As a bonus, I also included a conversion of 2 objects from Flower Shop Set by @serenebluesims (Pocci) - a flower stand (9 slots) and a flower bucket (1 slot, goes on surfaces too). I also converted a fridge from Spa Day and called it a "Flower Fridge" :D It's a shelf with 6 slots. Because flowers have a shadow underneath, it will stick out of the buckets, but let's imagine it's a water level maybe? :D
All files are necessary for the default to function correctly (you can't pick and choose). All shadows are repositoried to Lord Crumps' shadow file (not included).
Compressed, clearly labelled, picture is included.
As requested I created a functional workout station for your sims (teen to elder) to exercise.
I used Lil Diva Weight Lifting Animations (you need to download the animations from her page) and the Barbell and Dumbbells from that post too but I edited them in order to be used with this object so if you want to use it but you have the old meshes in your download folder, you need to delete them and use these ones instead.
The stand is based on an accessories posebox; when the accessory spawn you need to wait a little for it to appear. Then sims will perform the actions and gain fun, body skill points, fitness enthusiasm and lose weight.
The original object is a 4to2 conversion from Severinka, low poly. Found in Hobby-Exercise

These are functional pull-out sofa and chair based on Ikea Ektorp set. I created them long ago, and now, having more skill, decided to give them a refresh. Let me know if I made it worse! 😁
Fixes:
No more waiting in Live Mode for newly bought beds to become fully functional
No more untimely unhiding in visited neighbors' apartments
No autonomous unfolding without sleep
Fixed pie menu texts for some languages
New features:
Quarter tile and off-grid placement enabled (if placed off tile, you have to adjust bed part by hand to align it with its seating part)
Both bed and sofa/chair are visible in Buy Mode upon placing the object so that you can recolor sheets and adjust placement right away (one of the parts will hide in Live Mode)
Sleep interaction shortcut -- unfold and go to bed in one click (sleeping autonomy and user directed sleep are the same as for other beds; if you have a global mod that changes conditions, it'll apply to these beds as well)
Option to temporary disable autonomous sleep
Other changes:
Can sell unfolded beds
Can place chair bed next to a wall
Bed unfolds in "made" state even if no one made it before folding
Sell old beds and buy new ones in game for best experience (I kept GUIDs and filenames the same)
Known Issue: it's possible to make cheaty money using undo button, I'm not saying how 😛
Sofa Bed + Chair Bed + Cushion recolor * IKEA required, AL/M&G maybe too Notes for creators on how to update
Published: 2-3-2025 | Updated: N/A SUMMARY Hobbies and interests were introduced via the Freetime EP (EA/Maxis, 2008). There are 10 hobbies (cuisine, film & literature, tinkering, sports, music and dance, fitness, arts & crafts, science, games, and nature) and 18 interest categories (sci-fi, culture, environment, paranormal, health, fashion, politics, sports, school, animals, toys, money, entertainment, work, crime, food, travel, and weather). Here are 50+ trait tokens featuring various sub-hobbies – these are meant to compliment the original hobby categories and let players assign specific hobby-related interests to their sims. The Sub-Hobby Project comes from the collective brainstorming of @grilledcheese-aspiration, @slyndseysims @gayars and @anachronisims. DETAILS Requires all EPs/SPs. §0 | Buy > Misc > Misc (purple icons) At the time of this post, these are for storytelling/completion purposes only. These are TOKENS ONLY – they do not alter sims/gameplay on their own. If/when they are incorporated in mods, their custom function(s) will depend on the mods in question. The collection file is REQUIRED to access the traits in-game.
ITEMS Download a PDF/Excel document with the traits and their GUIDs using the link below.
