I participated in "Fix it or Flip it" contest. Thanks sweet CatherineTCJD for hosting. Those was my first contest experience hence I got my first badge. This was a point where I realised that my houses turned not that good like I expected. First had not playtested, second has been, but having route traps, third had never existed. I shared edited versions of those which are looking trustworthy but still I have low number of downloads which is a mark of low graditude.

I found a lot (mostly mean) about myself during that contest: that I can't build good enough in a short time given, that I don't quite understand quality measures, I don't quite get prompts given, I miss lines in letters...

I am sorry to make such a bad submissions.

I love houses of other participants. I'll be honest: my favourites were not judges'. MichaelHouses got the lowest above me scores, but I see they have really high download count after share it, thus might be a way to compensate scores. And Justpetro who performed mediocre but same as Michael, found Audience Choises Award with their Downtown Crack house Unckracked in Downloads.

The last round happened when my aunt was found dead at her property. Such death like a human went to toilet and never came back to me looks faulty. I had so many extra thoughts running in my head circles: like we all will dead someday, but not that way, that no one is safe and now came up to one that we still should live the life that happens, and fix it or flip it to do it better, same way as with houses.

Hello dear simmers.
Twelve days ago I got HIV+ test and now I am on therapy.
I think this a sign. I should have care about myself more. And now I have to do that if I want it or not so I set my creative activity for the Sims community in long long hiatus.

Helo guys. I want to have few of your minutes to describe my creator's content use policies.

As of time TS4 has been released and even more after some time passed many of great creators with very strict CC use rules left the community. This was made other creators think different. And I have seen few times that new creators when utilise parts of old creator's meshes write long letters about how do they like the creation, about they read policies and previous apologises due to long time passed and now they want to break their guidelines. If the creator of original item will come back they will delete their stuff. And OMG despite my creations are not that popular like something created by Adele, Marilou, Honeywell, CatherineTCJD,
Plasticbox, Angela, Cyclonesue and OMG many many creators I absolutely in love. I really don't want something like those letters to happen with me and my creations in future.

So I changed my policies to no policies. Use my creations for whatever you want. Utilise my meshes and grab my textures. Refurnish my houses and place it into your neighbourfoods (I wrote neighbour foods?.. =/) that you will share elsewhere then.

The reason why I am doing my creations free of charge is different for each game.

• TS1 is so old that I just won't add any policies to my TS1 creations. So there is
  no policies for my TS1 creations and never will.
• In TS2 times I remember myself worried about "link to my thread" and "do not attach my meshes" creators. There was such a pain to collect all the links and substract meshes from recolors. I don't want anyone to suffer alike. So TS2 creations are also share with no policies.
• TS3... Well... TS3 items are most hard to develop actually. I could add a payout to my creations... one day. But not now in 2023. The rest utilise of my meshes will always be absolutely fine. TS3 items are built in such way that they has no textures and any tiny change to my item may result absolutely different result. Hence. Even if I share something pay, the rest of development is up to you. I mean you can share your recreation of my TS3 stuff free even if my upload will be pay.
• TS4 meshes and colours are really simple to create. Time consumed for CC for TS4 costs a buck and I think the only its worth is donations. Also TS4 has really great and supportive community. I just don't want to share everything pay for such people. To create everything for TS4 is enjoying and simple. Hence no pay here too.

Two things for you to remember:

• When I utilise some of other creator's meshes or make recolours , this means my recolors are free of charge, but still respect original creator's policies and shared alike. I am not a bot so I could be mistaken when attach meshes from you, my great but no sharing-friendly creator. If you see such then write me a letter and I will substract your mesh from the archive I share. But I will never delete my creation entirely even if you ask me. In my 15 years of creation this had never happened and hopefully never will.
• I am kinda indeferrent whathever you redestribute my content or not. But do not go overboard. Two reasons to redestribute my CC unchanged are your content use any parts of mine (sims use clothes, houses use items, hoods use houses etc.) or original link to the thread is missed. I always mention the source (MTS - modthesims, TSR - thesimsrecourse, TBR or TMBLR - if simbler) in description, file name either archive name and your reshare with words "I created this" is unapropriate at all. I will make you to delete your thread with such mention. Until you have no letters from me, rest assured you did everything right. But I keep my eye and will find out violator sooner or later. So you should know - reshare is allowed but restricted.

That's all duh. Hope you read this thread from the beginning to the end. Poor me. I live in hopes. And always will.

Hello. If you didn't know, I'll tell you. My native country started war actions against Ukraine. And I have few words to say about this.
First, please stop insulting me and other Russians. Some of us, like me who has ukranian relatives, are really disappointed by this. I don't know what to do. I am waiting for this war to stop as fast as possible.
Second, some essential products are banned for my country by government. Some antiviruses, apps and programs are temporary pausing its work themselves because don't want to pay taxes which could be used for war preparations. Well. Let it be. I 'll try to publush.... something that won't need that essential tools. Something that has been created before but unpublished. Houses.... patterns.... clothes... I don't know. I won't participate in seasonal events and contests since now. I will not post any content related to holidays and currently runnung Spring22. I can not create now with full might as usually. I just can't. I am sorry.
Luv. Vic

Hello dear, simmers. I just want to make clear a situation and that is important to me.
You know, I was creating in almost a year in the world of the Sims 4. I did it to test this game first, then I started to have joy from that and publish my creations here and in the gallery.
I found that Sims 4 is not bad. Yes, game music by Ilan Eshkeri is the least melodic to my ears. Their errors and game bugs are no reason to dislike it too because every Sims game in franchise was not perfect to be honest. All that could be no reason for dislike it. But all that ballyhoo around insult my country and show its community as gay evil and LGBT unfriendly srikes my wish to play it again.
I can't understand what was made them to mess with ministry of culture but they did it and the Sims 4 game has been set as 18+.
Russian simmers are not gay unfriendly. And our country is not that terrible EA say about it. We have LGBT charity organisations, we have different places for gays to spend their time, we even have families consist of just males of females (those are not protected by laws but anyways)!
I think EA just dislike Russian in total which is probably the only reason of things to happen. And their propaganda is not about gay rights but much about to show my country shady and terrible place. Hence I don't like them now in return.

I don't want to create in The Sims 4 any more. And most likely will not update my creations for it.
Thank you for your time. And welcome to Russia if you'll ever decide to visit it. Whoever you are.

Cheers Vic <3

Hi all! This topic is about creators who's creator's policy means "Meshes share friendly". That means they allow to add meshes with recolours.
I was bumped with kind of creator's policy some months ago when some of forum residents send me a warning of use his screnshot for avatar. Actually never mind of creator's screenshot policy earlier. But I see the messages of mesh creators "do not include my mesh with recolours" quite often. Сcreators who allowed of using theirs meshes with recolours are rare species at sims community.
I decided to share some links to threads ands seites of creators who allows to use their meshes with recolours. Mainly for Sims 4 but some of them are creating for Sims 3 too. So if you have no time of learn meshes, you're wecome to use theirs. Also if you are "Meshes share friendly", you're welcomed to add your links an answer to this topic too.

Regards. Vic ^_^
