Part one of my “ooh, what’s this”? project. I’ve been poking around random folders and I was wondering what was in all of those “locale” folders. It turns out that for ts2 basegame and the stories games, the Japanese, Korean, and Traditional Chinese locale folders contain bin.bundles. And inside these bins? Sims! I’ve never seen them anywhere in-game so I guess they only show up if you install using those languages? idk. Each bundle has 6 sims, one M and one F from teen-elder.
I extracted them exactly as-is into their own sims2packs and uploaded them with their portraits. Pictured without any custom content or defaults. They come without any CC and shouldn’t require any expansions/stuff packs, but clean installer is always recommended anyway. 🙂
No morphs. This is for Adult Female. It comes in all the colors pictured above. Obviously there can be clipping around the wrist And also paired with certain bottoms.
Here’s the RSA 13-inch Portable/Tabletop Television Set! It’s very similar to one my mother owned for her bedside table when I was about five or six. It costs $30 and can be found in Electronics.
The Karaoke machine that came with Nightlife had a really, really cute TV attached to it, to read the lyrics off of! So I mangled the damn thing off of its stand, fixed the screen (which took no less than forever, because the entire mesh was a mirrored one) and am now ready to upload it!
Founded by Iams Imming, Brightpoint has grown into a trendy, established island without losing its small town charm. It is a haven for nature lovers, boasting a plethora of tree life, plants, and parks. It appeals to social-driven Sims with its robust central community district. It offers stunning ocean views and an iconic, picturesque lighthouse. There’s something waiting for every Sim in Brightpoint!
I fell in love with Brightpoint Island in April 2014. That’s when I started building in this empty, beautiful world. After four years on and off, including starting over after losing my original files, I’ve finally finished. And now I’m sharing it with you.

Much love and many thanks to Brightpoint’s original creator, @iamsimming and the indomitable @fakehousesrealawesome for four residential lots included in this upload. I also want to give a shout out to my good friends @simtactoe and @astrognomersims for creating the Cardwell and McPherson households, for playtesting this save, and for being generally awesome. You all rock.
As of July 4th 2018, the Internet as we know it might be dead for good.
The European Parliament is passing a new Copyright Directive. Article 13 #CensorshipMachine will impose widespread censorship of all the content we share online. Art, fanfiction, parodies, remixes, mashups, memes, etc.. Anything that you do not hold the rights over will be taken down.
Article 13 would force all online platforms to police and prevent the uploading of copyrighted content, or make people seek the correct licenses to post that content. Internet platforms hosting large amounts of user-uploaded content must monitor user behaviour and filter their contributions to identify and prevent copyright infringement.
Such filters will be mandatory for platforms including YouTube, Facebook, Tumblr, Reddit and Instagram, but also much smaller websites.
Last Tuesday (19th June 2018) a group of more than 70 people who have played important roles in building the internet and developing it (Tim Berners-Lee, Vincent Cerf,
Jimmy Wales, Mitchell Baker…) into what it is today addressed an open letter to the members of the European Parliament:
“As creators ourselves, we share the concern that there should be a fair distribution of revenues from the online use of copyright works, that benefits creators, publishers, and platforms alike.
But Article 13 is not the right way to achieve this. By requiring Internet platforms to perform automatic filtering all of the content that their users upload, Article 13 takes an unprecedented step towards the transformation of the Internet from an open platform for sharing and innovation, into a tool for the automated surveillance and control of its users. […] The damage that this may do to the free and open Internet as we know it is hard to predict, but in our opinions could be substantial.”
