Default Sims 3 Maxis Match CAS Masterlist
EDIT: As of October 11, 2018, the link below is now defunct. Please use this one (http://modthesims.info/t/619834)


Hi MTS! I made a tumblr post on my new tumblr about what kind of Maxis Match CC I recommend for anyone starting with Sims 3 and thinking, "OMG why do TS2 and TS4 have maxis-match CC but little to none for TS3?!!" So, I compiled what I use in my game (I <3 Maxis Match and TS3) and they are all mostly matte. I would love some feedback on my list. These are my preferences, so give some suggestions. (Make sure they are matte)

Here is the post: https://diceplease.tumblr.com/post/...edcas-resources

Thank you all! <3

Simplex Sims converts things to Teen and Elder which has been really helpful in padding out those stages.

Kent Conversions also does those as well as some child conversions. I especially love his conversion of the store's free PE set for the teens and children. It's neat to have teenage boys jogging around wearing American football uniforms.

Pixicat has amazing shoes, but they don't quite match. I find it's best to give them a snakeskin or leather texture as most Maxis stuff has that thick plastic-y look and her stuff is bright and smooth.

There's a great lack of TS3 Maxis Match content and 4t3 conversions. I don't know why, but I'm already finding some things on your list that I wasn't aware of. Thanks a lot.

Added! I'm also discovering some new creators, thanks! Oh, and by the way, @GrijzePilion, I hear you're making a series (Bridgeport'88), but then I hear you're saying you have 20 FPS on Sims (reshade,ambient occlusion, mods, blah blah blah.) How are you making the framerate watchable for the audience?

Well I have a number of ways to make or keep the framerate tolerable, but to be honest it'll never be silky smooth. It's not going to be silky smooth without customizations either, because I prefer detail over pure functionality, but I can offer a reasonably stable 25 FPS. It's what you're used to watching TV shows and movies, and if it's good enough for me and the entire entertainment industry, it's good enough for my audience.

Bump. Any more s3mm creators? I'd love to add them into my masterlist.

There should be more, dammit. I see you haven't added AroundTheSims though, and I'd say her stuff definitely counts.

She's honestly one of the nicest, most consistent, and most inventive creators for TS3.

Her furniture is amazing! I find her accessory leggings and accessory turtlenecks indispensable to my game.

Yeah, but she doesn't do TS2 as much anymore, she stopped doing TS1 years ago, and she told me she prefers making stuff for TS3 over making stuff for TS4.

She's also the only creator who regularly does 4t3 conversions and gameplay objects.

That's because of Sandy Valley.

@Disspleased I checked out your Tumblr and followed you. Although I'm not strictly "maxi-match". I don't even know exactly what that is, LMAO. I just use what I like. And totally agree that Sandy at ATS3 is terrific.

If you like 4to3 conversions (although talk about mismatched aesthetics!), you should also check out http://kandiraver-sims.tumblr.com/.
