The Ultimate Ceiling Superset (Part 2 of 7): 212 TIN Ceiling Floor Textures
F.Y.I.
Apartment Life gives Simmers the option to use Floor Tiles as Ceilings. However, most of the Maxis/EA Floor Tiles do not look good as ceilings. So...I give you the Ultimate Ceiling Superset! (If you do NOT have Apartment Life, See the "Alternative Ceilings" Section Below).
A Brief History
I know...I know...Ceiling SUPERSET? Really? It all started innocent enough with me needing a few ornate ceilings for my Gwrych Collection. Seeing that necessity is the mother of invention...I had to create what doesn't already exist in a complete set. Besides...methinks these sets are downloads you won't realize you need until you actually start using them. Ceilings and floor tiles are not quite the same and while some of the Maxis and User Created floor tiles are good enough to use as ceilings, ceiling tiles need a to be a bit more 3D. So, I sought out as many ceiling samples as I could find and created others to meet my current and future lot design needs. Basically, I needed a bit more variety. So...thus was born the Ultimate Ceiling Superset! The neat thing is these ceiling tiles are really floors...so most (but not all) would look WONDERFUL as floor tiles. There are also a few walls used in the Elemental Texture Set and the Sistine Chapel Texture Set. Basically, there is quite a bit of diversity to this collection which took weeks to pull together and make presentable as not only do you have hundreds of SEAMLESS ceilings, a few SEAMLESS walls and a few SEAMLESS terrains...but you also get the Sistine Chapel Community Lot, as well as sensible texture file names and collection files for each set! Anywho...do enjoy the downloads!

Important Note FOR USERS WHO DO NOT HAVE APARTMENT LIFE
Important Note FOR USERS WHO DO NOT HAVE APARTMENT LIFE
Apartment Life gives you the option of painting your ceiling using floor tiles. While you do not need Apartment Life to use these textures, you can only paint your ceilings if you have Apartment Life. EPs before Apartment Life do not give you the option of painting your ceilings.
The Ultimate "Ceiling" Collection are floor tiles. If you don't have Apartment Life, you can still use any of the tiles seen in this collection "AS FLOORS".
With that said...
ALTERNATIVE CEILINGS FOR THOSE WHO "DON'T" HAVE APARTMENT LIFE:
For those of you who do not have Apartment Life but would like to paint your ceilings, you can find a few user created ceilings here:

Note: You will need the MESH from the first link by jgwhiteus for the ceiling recolours in all the other links to work properly. From my understanding, these ceilings are resource hungry, so it is best to use them only if you have an above standard computer system. Also, you must place each tile 1 at a time (which can be pretty time consuming for larger rooms). In all honesty, I think it is much more practical to own Apartment Life if you desperately want to have ceilings in your game. I sound like a Poster Child for Maxis/EA!
****************************************************************
Disclaimers and Previews:
*Since this set is so massive, I decided to name the items using numbers for ease of access and to organize each file by colour (which is actually more practically when decorating a lot). However, to help you identify and compare the ceilings used in the In-Game images in this post to those in the Close-up Images in this post, I gave them descriptive names. There are even several texutures named after the Provinces in Canada. . However, these descriptive names are not used for the files in the game.
When you look for the textures in-game, I would suggest downloading the set, placing them in your Downloads folder and using Maxis Content Manager (or some other object program) to decide which textures you wish to keep and which you prefer to remove from your game. Also keep in mind, there are COLLECTION Files for each individual Ultimate Ceiling Super"set". The files have been named to coincide with their numbers to make it easier to locate if you need to manually remove a file from your game.
************************
I doubled up on many of the ceiling/floor tiles in the images as there is a limit as to how many images one can have and as usual my sets are massive! Which means the images are merely to show you what is available for download, not to show you how to use the textures. The presentation for the textures in the main images is not necessarily how I would have presented them if I presented a smaller set. So...

However, my CC LOADED Lots will be Housed at Proudly Banished. I've also add the updated Fully Loaded Versions of the American Gothic Mansion. Be sure to click on the Slideshows when available! You will find a few lots, object recolors, clothing recolors and the Regina Mills Sim (from Once Upon a Time)! There should be a little something for everyone!
