#josieplaysts3
It’s raining in Sunlit Tides but that doesn’t stop Lala Reyes from harvesting fresh veggies at the community garden! She entered a local cooking contest with a cash prize for first place and she needs the best ingredients for the dish she’s entering. She was soaking wet by the time she was done harvesting the bell peppers and other veggies lol

Summer festival has arrived in Sunlit Tides and Lala decides to ride her bike there to enjoy the festivities. It’s practically on the other side of the island, but it’s such a scenic view she doesn’t mind the long ride. There’s a wild horse on her ride there!

Josie Plays TS3…again!
I have fallen back in love with TS3 after years of not playing it and I forgot how fun it can be! But there’s no getting around it- the Sims are super ugly out of the box and while the worlds themselves are all gorgeous, the TS3 lighting is not. TS4 has spoiled me in that I want pretty Sims and pretty lighting so this is a mini list of what I’ve done in order to get that TS4 “pretty” while enjoying TS3 gameplay, under the cut!
G-Shade- I installed G-Shade for Sims 3 ( here’s how) and I discovered that theEleonora preset for ReShade works beautifully in TS3 too. I also have a private preset gifted to me by a friend which also looks amazing ( thanks Chrissy lol!) Other than that, I recommend the presets byerasabledinosaur.
Lighting Mod-I highly recommend the Frozen Lighting Mod by Burnt Waffles,it is really beautiful and bright and gives the most amazing skies and sunsets.
Skin and Sliders- these are a MUST if you want your TS3 Sims to look good, in my opinion. I found a master list of sliders in this post and I recommend at least getting sliders for the jaw and chin because this is where TS3 Sims really need help lol Genetics and skins are really a matter of preference but I like my TS3 Sims to look a little more realistic and not as cartoony, so I use the skins by this creator and I especially recommend the Cappuccino skin by them.
Nose Masks- I think nose masks are definitely needed as well and I usethese by Burnt Waffles.
Hair- All of the hairs I am currently using are from here, there are male and female hairs and the conversion quality is perfect!
The rest of the CAS content I found using Emily’s CC Finds, under her Sims 3 tags, where it’s broken up by category and makes it really easy to find content to beautify my Sims!
Hope this helps anyone wanting to go down memory lane with TS3 and I’m also tagging @haziesims who wanted some of this info too!
Have fun Simming!
Lala was off again in the rain to enter her dish! The cut off time was 7 PM and she made it in the nick of time because she lives on the other side of the island.
BUT…she only came in second place She wasn’t too disappointed because she did earn some cash and second place isn’t bad for only being on level 2 cooking.
It also stopped raining on her bike ride home and who could stay upset with a tropical sky so gorgeous?
