Wintery Water[Base Game]I based this off of the exising "pool pourri" (pool water with petals in) from Get Together, but I have been told by MTS moderators that you can still use this with the Base Game  .
The weather turns colder and the snow starts to fall, but the pools and fountains seem to stay warm. There's no ice that forms or snow that settles.
I want to add that final touch to my winter garden and let the water cool off a bit.
So this adds a new pool water for you to choose, with a variety of different snowy and icy textures to get the perfect chilly water during winter.
This is found in Build Mode under pool waters

Swim Around in Pools
[Base Game]
I was always disappointed that my sims could "swim around" freely in the ocean (Island Living) but when it came to pools that option wasn't available, we only had "swim laps" and I didn't really like my mermaid sims swimming around in circles/squares at the edges of the pool. I wished that we had the "swim around" interaction so they could move about freely. I had a look aorund and couldn't find that anyone had done this yet, so I added it to the pie menu myself
This interaction isn't exclusive to mermaid sims
From testing in different pools it seems to work best in mishapen/irregular pools. They do tend to still move around the edges but not as bad as "swim laps", they take a more varied path in a pool that isn't a perfect square.
They will swim further away from the edges than it was originally set to, I've increased the constraint size from 1.5 to 2.5 (any higher doesn't work very well in smaller pools).
Any issues please let me know!

Vintage Radiator Heater[Snowy Escape]As soon as I saw the heater that came with snowy escape, I wanted to take the radiator from Vampires and make it function the same. So that's what this is. The Vampire's radiator now warms up your sims
I also added a few more swatches: light grey, white, and black
This is not a replacer, it will add a new object
Catalogue Details:
Activities & Skills > Recreation
$185

Freed Eco Decor
[Base Game]
I love the shelving that came with the Eco Lifestyle pack with the little plants and things on, and I was thinking, these plants are too pretty to stay stuck on these shelves. I wanted to place them elsewhere around my homes.
This set contains 21 different items
        
So I cloned all the shelves with items on that I liked and spent time separating them.
*2 of the plants did not have a complete mesh - the back was missing as no one would ever realistically see it on the shelf, so I had to botch a fix for those holes. I'm not very good with Blender, I can only really delete things, not create. So I've copy pasted the existing side of the mesh and joined it to the back, so the shadows might be a bit off on those as it's a botched glued together pot basically
Most of the items do not have any swatch variations. If the original shelf had different swatches that affected the object, I have included all of those. Most of them though only have the one.
The Freed Eco Lifestyle Decor Boxes does have a medium decor slot that you can put things in.
Catalogue Details:
You can find all these items in Plants or Clutter. You can also type "freed" or "eco" and find them. #EcoLifestyle #Eco #Lifestyle #Plant #Plants #Decor #Decoration |

Amy's Garden Plants (Separated)
[Snowy Escape]I made this a while ago but haven't been able to do much about uploading it until now I never like when we get clusters of plants as a single item, what if I want to only use that one little flower pot?! I do really like the Amy's Garden plants that were included with Snowy Escape, so I made them all individual plants (not overriding the original group) to place them separately. This is not a replacer, it will add 5 new objects. I included all the swatches for each colour variant for the plants.      Catalogue Details: Decorations > PlantsThey all cost $90 each (the same as the original group) You can also find them by searching "amy's garden" as seen in the screenshot  #plants #decor #decoration #snowy escape #plant |
