Decor with a Purpose: Functional Shower Supplies

Jump to Patch notes Continuing my mission to make decorative items useful, I’ve made something more custom than just moving some tuning around. Now when a sim is taking a shower or a bath they have an option to use these body wash and soap objects and get a nice little confidence boost! These are […]

Decor with a Purpose: Useful Hand Soap

Jump to Patch notes I finally figured out what I wanted to do for hand soap! It’s actually based on some existing functionality in the game: the soap dispenser upgrade that sinks can get. The way these objects work is that you just place them near the sink and use the sink as normal. Sims […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Sunblock

Jump to Patch Notes Now you don’t need to already be sunbathing to apply sunblock! Using this object applies the same Island Living sunblock buff that prevents sunburn. They can even use it from their inventory! This is an override of an Island Living item given a custom variation of the Apply Sun Protection interaction. […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Tissue Box

Jump to Patch notes Now when sims are sad they can “Cry it Out” with tissues instead of crawling into bed. Plus, when your sims have a cold or allergies, they can now blow their nose to get a 4 hour “Temporary Relief” buff in an attempt to offset the symptoms they’re experiencing (just don’t […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Coat Racks

Jump to Patch notes Not only does this give some objects a purpose, but it also lets you change your sim into and out of outerwear without going into a picker. Nothing fancy, just put on outerwear if you’re not wearing it and take it off (change into everyday) if you are. This also gives […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Radiator

Jump to Patch notes We have ways to heat houses now, but the radiator from the Vampires pack remains useless without mods. So here’s my take on functionality for it including your choice of a basegame version of one that functions as a Seasons thermostat. This is an override for a Vampires item. It will […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Makeup

Jump to Patch Notes You don’t need a whole vanity to apply vanity makeup anymore! Now makeup objects can just be placed on desks and used to apply makeup. Most of these objects are overrides and all items require Vintage Glamour Stuff to function. The tuning is custom, adjusted from the vanity tuning to work […]

Decor with a Purpose: Books & Magazines as Bookshelves

Jump to Patch Notes Now stacked books can function just like bookshelves. Yes, there are already some space saving options like this, but they look so neat and organized. Some people (and sims) are messy. Now you can just have books laying around as decor and pretend to grab from the pile. These are overrides […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Lotion

Jump to Patch Notes Much like my Functional Perfume and Cologne your sims can now use lotion to get a custom buff. Sims with itchiness buffs from various packs and mods should use it autonomously but tbh I’m not sure if that’s broken or if my sims are just stubborn jerks. Let me know if […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Beach Basket

Jump to Patch Notes Similar to Functional Coat Racks, this item lets you change into and out of swimwear. Depending on the current weather, changing out of it will choose everyday or hot weather clothing. Also if you have Island Living and my Functional Sunblock mod or Kuttoe’s Basic Burns you’ll get an extra option […]

Decor with a Purpose: Functional Bath Towels

Jump to Patch notes With this mod sims can dry off to a few wet uncomfortable moodlets or change into and out of a towel manually. They will also change out of it autonomously if left to their own devices. These are overrides of EA items given custom tuning and moved to Bathroom Accents if […]

Decor with a Purpose: Usable Toothbrushes

Jump to Patch Notes This mod is a little different and it does a few things. First, it disables brushing your teeth without a hidden buff. With the base version of the mod, all you have to do to get the buff is to place a toothbrush object and be near it. The base version […]
