Have you ever wanted to put other stuff on your bookcase shelves besides books? Have you ever wanted to place your bookshelves so they formed a wall of bookcases like you see in a library? Have you ever just wanted a nice bookcase that didn't take up two whole tiles? If the answer to any of those questions is yes then look no further...this bookcase can do all of those things. It's a match for EA's Towering Intellect bookcase but it has all the books removed and 48 (yes...really 48) slots added. There are large slots, medium slots, and small slots...all spaced appropriately to allow maximal clutter placement. It's been resized so that it fits one full tile only and the footprint has been edited to match. This means you can line them all up to form a library wall with no cheat. The Sims use it just like they use EA's Towering Intellect bookshelf. On top of that it has all 3 of the original item's wood tones plus 5 more. If you don't like any of those feel free to recolor it It was made with Sims 4 Studio...of course The download is below the first picture and all pics are in-game screenshots. I hope you will enjoy it! If you would like to download a shorter matching version look HEREthat's a lot of toothbrushes...lol. #om #bookcase #slot mod #Maxis match #buy #surface

Have you ever felt the windows in Sims 4 look a little...well...naked? It's very odd that they have no sills and, while continuing my quest to give my Sims the perfect kitchen I needed to fix that. Their kitchen uses the Octopane window over the sink so this was the one I used to position the sill. The sill fits several other EA windows but for those you will have to move it a bit by holding down the Alt key. When used with the Octopane window the sill will snap right into position at all window heights. The sill comes in 4 colors and has 7 slots. It can be found in the same section as shelves are in and it costs 20 Simoleons because you shouldn't have to pay a lot just to get a normal looking window. You can recolor it but, if you do, please use Sims 4 Studio v 2.5.1.6 and use the recolor feature. The download button is below the second picure. I hope you will enjoy it Picture Credits: the adorable vase with pink flowers in the first picture is by Vero of Mango Sims and can be downloaded HEREThe window sill looks just as nice in the bath and particularly good when you need to leave a light out in the living room. #window sill #om #surface

I like the EA Bibliophile bookcase but sometimes it's a little too large and it could definitely use some slots. So I cut it down to a single tile and added 89 slots to it. Each shelf has 1 large slot. The top shelf has 20 more slots mixed between medium and small. The other shelves all have 16 more slots mixed between medium and small. Sims will use it as a bookcase even when the slots are filled with clutter and it comes in all the same colors as the original. It makes the perfect place to store all your lovely clutter and it makes a nice utility type shelf too. I hope you will enjoy it. The download is at the bottom of the page below the last picture.

I think this cart by EA is super cute but it has a few unfortunate drawbacks. The first is that, for some reason, they made it so the bottom shelf is not wide enough to touch the legs so it appears to be hovering in mid-air. The second is those three plants plunked right down in the middle of both surfaces and that leads to the third which is, of course, the thing has no slots where you can put what you'd rather have on it than EA's plants. This mod fixes all of those problems by removing the plants, fixing the texture so the shadow artifact left behind by that removal is gone, widening the lower shelf so it's attached to the rest of the mesh, and adding 44 slots. I've also edited the spoke portion of the mesh to correct some sloppy mapping there which caused the spokes to need a large file alpha image instead of a standard image that is far lower in size. The top shelf has 1 large, and 2 medium slots and the bottom has 1 medium slot. The rest are small slots on both shelves. It's far more versatile now and can be used anywhere from the kitchen to the garden. It's superior enough to the original that I felt it was best to make it as a default override so you don't end up with two similar items in your catalog. I left it in plants where you're used to seeing it and also tagged it as a miscellaneous surface. I lowered the price a bit since you are only buying a cart and not a cart with three potted plants. If anyone is concerned about losing the hyacinths on the top shelf I plan to release them separately but I need to finish making recolors for them. The plant on the bottom shelf is already in EA's catalog so I'm not going to release that one.
The .package contains a full clone because the only resource I didn't need to mess with was the Light and that is so small it hardly seemed worth deleting that one little thing. It has all the EA colors on the same EA wood pattern the original has. I hope you will enjoy it and find it as useful as I do. The download is below the last picture and the picture credits.

I ran into another of those EA items that just makes me go hmm. This time the empty bath shelf object that says it's a good place to store towels but has no slots to allow the towel object to be placed on it. I fixed that by adding 60 slots to the item. Each shelf has 3 medium slots in a band across the middle and 17 small slots that cover the surface from edge to edge. The overall effect is that you can put what you want just about anywhere on the shelves now. The picture on the left below shows where the medium slots are located...there are 3 on each level. The other pictures show the small slots from two angles. The corner slots are close to the bars on the bottom two shelves but they will comfortably fit things the size of the toothbrush holder with no clipping into the shelves. The back row is far enough forward that those slots can be used without a cheat if you wish. This is a default override that adds slots to the shelf and does nothing else. It will not add a new catalog entry to clutter up the catalog and it makes no other changes to the shelf. I hope you will enjoy it. The download is below the picture credits.

I love the cute coffee shelves EA made for Get Together but I would prefer to put my own things on them. I fixed the tall shelf first and now I've fixed the long shelf. This mod is the EA shelves with all the clutter removed and 27 slots added. The slots are close together to allow for more precise placement of items on these small shelf spaces (see below). It is a default override so you will need Get Together installed in order to have the item show up in your game.
I redid all the original textures so it comes in the same 6 colors as the EA original:
You can pair it up with the tall empty shelf to create new shelving installations:
Here is the shelf with all the slots occupied by a small item:

I have been meaning to get to adding slots to these 4 little end tables for a long time. I've never understood why EA gave them lower shelves but didn't slot those shelves so they just sit there useless and empty. I've fixed that and added a ton of slots to the upper surface as well. This mod contains only the resources necessary to add more slots to the Mega, Mission Style, Riveted, and Tabula Rasa end tables from the base game. It will not add slots to any other surface, and it will not add new catalog entries for the tables. All 4 table's resources have been merged into a single .package so there is only one thing to download and put in your Mods folder. The tables have small, medium, and large slots, and the slots overlap to allow maximum flexibility when placing things.
I hope you will enjoy them! #om #end table #surface #slot mod #EA Fix #default override

Awhile back someone requested that the GT Easy Energy Espresso Bar be emptied and slotted for greater versatility. This .package is a default override of the bar that has been emptied. The bar has 15 large slots, 40 medium slots, and 361 small slots, for a total of 416 slots. Some of the slots overlap to allow maximum flexibility when placing things on the surfaces. When adding clutter to the glass cases you will need to add things in the back rows from the back of the bar rather than attempting to place them there through the glass. When you are removing clutter from the shelves it is easiest to do this from the back of the bar rather than from the front.
In my game tests, the Sims used the bar in a normal way even when the slots were in use.
The .package includes only the resources needed to empty the espresso bar, edit its textures to remove shadows on the shelves, give it matching catalog thumbnails, and add slots to it. It has all the original swatches and it will not create a new catalog entry. All it will do is empty the bar of clutter and add slots so you can add your own clutter instead.
This item requires Get Together in order to show up in your game. Be aware that, in order to maintain compatibility with previously made recolors of the bar, I have not renumbered the rig and slot resources. What this means is that, if EA uses these resources later, for some other object, these slots will show up on that object as well as on this bar. It's doubtful that this will happen but, with EA you never know. If that happens I will issue a new, renumbered version to replace this one. The download is below the picture credits. I hope you enjoy it.

This shelf from GTW is named Mucho Modern Display Shelves...now it actually has mucho slots so you can put mucho stuff on it This .package is a default override that contains just what's needed to add 623 slots to the Mucho Shelves without adding them to any other surface in the game. It will not create a new catalog entry. You will need GTW for the mod to work. There are small, medium, and large slots on all shelves.
If you put something in every slot (as shown in the picture below) this will cause the shelves to become very high poly which can slow the game down. I recommend cluttering the shelves so they look nice rather than filling every slot. Some of the slots overlap for maximum flexibility in cluttering the shelves. I hope you will enjoy it.

This is a default override that replaces the barely there slots of the corner Mucho shelves with three levels of wall-to-wall slots. The slots overlap to allow maximum flexibility in object placement, and there are small, medium, and large slots on each shelf. I also took the opportunity to fix the fact that, for some reason, EA made it, so this shelf doesn't show up in the standard object catalog. The .package contains only the resources needed to add 446 slots that will only show on this shelf and make the item show in the catalog. It requires Get To Work to show in your game. I hope you will enjoy the slots. #om #surface #shelf #slot mod # default override #EA fix
