LEGENDARY CURTAINS in Image Spectra
These curtains from the Modern Luxe kit are so sumptuous, they deserved some tender loving care with a few extra swatches.
Both heights come in 48 Image Spectra colours, and have a brass curtain rod.
For the separate curtain rod middle piece, you can choose either a single standalone version that has just the one brass swatch, or you...

It's been several hundred years since I released some walls, so let's get back into the swing of things with something nice and simple and elegant.
These new panels from the Modern Luxe kit were crying out for extra swatches to help make them more usable in more places. So here we are, two versions in Image Spectra. Version one has a dark ...

Summer Dream is a ReShade preset that brings a colourful, warm, romantic feeling to the game.
The foundation of the preset is a LUT that holds all the colour information. You can play with that enabled, and it is designed to not brighten your menus too much, so they should still be usable. Alongside that, FXAA, Clarity, and Sharpening are ...

I got asked for a quick rundown on using the camera tools for Baldur's Gate 3. This won't be a comprehensive guide, just a few tips.
Baldur's Gate 3 doesn't come with its own photo mode, so Frans Bouma (otis_inf of ReShade and SRWE fame) has made a tool to give us control over the camera. It also has built-in hotsampling, so there's no nee...

I used the slatted wall from the Greenhouse Haven kit in my last build and thought it could do with some more colours. Then I realised I should really do the windows and doors to match. And then I remembered the gable end. And the roof. And the plain wall.
So here they are! They all come in the Image Spectra palette. The windows and doors ...

FUZZY LOFT RUG in 2 palettes
Why did I wait so long to recolour this rug? Who knows?
Actually I know. Recolouring the Comfortably Plush rug years ago was a pain in the bum because the way I recolour didn't mesh well with how Maxis had done the soft fluffy edges of the rug and I ended up having to hand paint all the fuzzy bits and I'm sure there was an easier way but I...

Something a bit different from me today. I don't often do CAS stuff, but I like having lots of glasses to choose from in lots of different colours, and I'm quite fond at the moment of big cartoonish glasses too.

2023-02-21 22:39:52 +0000 UTC View PostFOUNDATION - balancing reshade for TS4
The Sims 4 suffers from very strong blue shadows in a lot of worlds, and generally has a blue or teal-green haze cast across the screen. This means things that should be white are blue or teal, greys have a blue tone to them, and shadows look out of place. I've generally tried to counteract this and make things more neutral in most of my presets...

More recolours from the excellent Desert Luxe kit. This time it's the two stone end tables. These look best in the neutral colours from Image Spectra, but all the richer jewel tones from that palette are included too. I also think the round table looks better than the square, but they're both there for completion's sake.

The concrete wall and floor that came with the Desert Luxe kit are super chic, but -- all together now -- they needed more swatches.
