Un Amour Éternel - A Prologue.

I no longer have or play the Sims. Most of my CC can be found on this OneDrive account. For a picture catalog of the CC, check my Repository on Tumblr.
Thank you for the fun and support over the many years - this game and community were part of my coming-of-age, and I hope it will stay strong for many years to come.
Much love,
Yuxi.



Welcome to Un Amour Éternel, Yuxi's TS2-crap-dump! I dig decorating, storytelling and making pretty pixel people, amongst other things. Older content (like old hair retextures/conversions) can be found on my Livejournal, and a masterlist of most of my stuff can be found here.


Policy



In case you want to know how I roll:
You're free to include my stuff with lots and sims, no need to ask.
Don't reupload my stuff as-is - there's no need, just link to it here.
For meshes, I'd prefer you linked back to their original post instead of including them, as I am prone to screwing up and will update as necessary. If you feel you must include it anyway, please also link back for that reason.
Feel free to hack/slash/convert/recolour/edit my things, but please do mention where you got your parts from. Defaulting is fine too, but please link back to the original post.
I only use textures or meshes from other people if they allow such mash-ups - follow their terms of usage if you wish to reuse their work and credit them properly too.



This is a list of the lovely creators and sites I get pretties and/or inspiration from. For closed sites, I added back-ups of their content where I could.

Sites and forums


Adele (mirror site): Beautiful objects and clothing.
Black Pearl Sims (forum) : I'm not an active member here, but I love many object recolours and meshes that can be found here. My favourite creators in particular are Animefemme, Cassandre, Leehee, MysticRain and Nemestnaya.
Chi Sims: All sorts of fancy objects, accessories and what-have-you with a classical Chinese twist.
Club Crimsyn (mirror site): Darker themed high-quality clothing, accessories, objects, walls&floors and so much more by aikea-guinea and Gelydh.
Cool Sims: Pretty, quality hairs for both genders by Anto.
Cradle of Darkness: Many beautiful and darker downloads by some excellent Russian creators.
E-studio See creator blogs vvv: E-Studio had high-quality skins, make-up and hair edits by one of my favourite creators ever. Ephemera is also a member of MTS and of Gamesir.
Elegant Decay: Used-but-not-quite-abused objects and other things by Nixy - I think the site's title pretty much says it all.
Enayla's Escapades: A subforum at Insimenator where Enayla posted her phenomenal eyes, skins and clothing inspired by the world of the fantastic.
Fashion Twist: Realistic, high-quality and elegant clothing by Confide and Tantra.
Gamesir: A plethora of talented Chinese CC creators post their creations here. (You do need an account view the board and GSBs (forum money) to download, however.)
Garden of Shadows (forum): Alternative-themed forum with many, many pretties. Basically my home forum, and I get at least 50% of my CC either from or via GoS.
Imaginary (at Sims2Graveyard): Problematique's and Noirmuse's old site, now hosted at the Graveyard. A plethora of shinies can be found here.
The Medieval Smithy and Plumb Bob Keep: Quality build mode items, object recolours and everything else you'll ever need to build a historical-themed 'hood.
My-mashup: Beautiful wallpapers, floors and lots by Isi. The site is gone but there are links to the items on the main page.
Pixel Dolly (at Sims2Graveyard): Alternative, high quality Bodyshop items and object recolours.
Sims in Paris (mirror site): Beautiful furniture with a chic touch.
Simply Styling: High quality clutter objects, furniture and other things that give a house that 'lived-in'-feeling.
Sims Projects: Grungy walls, floors and posters from Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, along with other useful object retextures by Dektora.

Favourite MTS creators


Bruno: Awesome make-up sets and other Bodyshop items.
blake_boy: Astonishing sets of contemporary furniture.
Buggybooz: Beautifully textured objects and room sets. She also has a blog with more goodness.
Criquette: The master of neighbourhood objects.
Crowridgestudio: Profile emptied out, but had some lovely recolours and vintage objects.
Guatla: Wonderful used-but-not-abused room and building sets, among other things.
Navetsea: I use his face kit and eyebrows on too many sims.
Pixelhate: Countless sets of marvellous building materials and brilliant overlays, perfect to build realistic, grubby lots.
Sherabhim: Beautiful fantasy-type clothing and other things.
V1ND1CARE: One of the best lot builders out there, mostly of ancient ruins and the like.

Creator blogs


Amaryll at Livejournal: Wonderful, high-quality clothing for both genders.
Azaya at Dreamwidth: Grungy recolours, lovely clothing and hairs.
Crayonsama at Tistory: Lovely realistic clutter, mostly ashtrays and gadgets.
CuriousB at Dreamwidth: Extremely useful and well-made grungy recolours and build mode objects.
Daislia at 163: Unique objects, recolours and build mode objects, always accompanied by stunning, inspiring pictures.
Ephemera at Blogbus: Sim God, basically. I simply can't play without his genetics, hair retextures and make-up.
Helena at 163: Utterly gorgeous Bodyshop CC, mostly historical/fantastical, bound to make jaws drop all the way to the floor.
Io at Dreamwidth/Livejournal: Absolutely drop-dead gorgeous clothing, hair retextures and more!
Javiera at Dreamwidth: Makes the most beautiful steampunk-themed clothing and objects.
Nabila at Livejournal: Wonderful high-quality object recolours and make-up.
Ran at 163: Beautiful accessories and other CC, all made with excellent taste.

A little question :)

Yuxi, your works are all amaaaazing, I really do like what you do! Just go on like this! ^-^

I've a question though: which hair did you use for your male model on your livejournal, where you say "this scene is dead"? (here: http://esperesa.livejournal.com/)
I searched for a long time on all sites I know, but I didn't find it, is it because it's one of yours? If so it is really awesome, and would you mind sharing it with all of us?

Thanks in advance! :3

Yuxi! We found the male long hair by Talenzz! As you lost it, I thought you may wanted to have it again, so here is the link to the post: http://www.simscave.com/index.php?topic=22457.0
So that you don't have to search on Gamesir for it! ^^ Thanks again for helping me!

Is there any chance of converting your Fallout items to TS3? I wish I knew how to do that!!! They are lovely and combining Sims and Fallout is just fantastic. If not, do you know of anyone who has done these?

WCIF Tapestry

(Anonymous) 2011-11-05 08:44 am (UTC)(link)
I'm especially fond of your Oblivion extractions and I noticed the Dark Brotherhood Tapestry hanging in the corner of one of your previews pictures(http://esperesa.dreamwidth.org/51576.html). I was wondering where I could find it; I'd love to get my hands on all the city and guild banners of the game if they exist somewhere in this big world of Sims. Thank you.

PS. I'd rather not remain Anonymous and this Open URL thing is confusing, so you can find me here if need be: http://www.medievalsims.com/forums/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=150

I hate to be a bother but can I ask where the stone walls and celestial paintings in your Pendulum Loft photos are from? I know I have seen the paintings before but for the life of me I can't find them...

Hello Yuxi!
I just discovered Malrennan's and I'm soooo overwhelmed. :)
It's so awesome, I love the pictures, they are impressive! Really!
That's why I wondered which Video Card you use? Could you tell me? I'm planning to buy a new Computer and I need a good Video Card.

Oh, and btw, I'll definitely keep reading your story, I fell in love with it. :'D <333

Hey Yuxi. I'm trying to find a hair accessory (probably found in glasses) that you have used before. Unfortunately I can't find a picture. It's an aged metal half-moon. It may have had some small chains. It hung like a diadem on the sim's forehead.

I can attempt a crude drawing if this rings no bells. :) I know it's not much to go on but I hoped it would ring a bell.

A question

(Anonymous) 2012-06-07 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
Dear Yuxi!

There's something I've been meaning to ask you for quite some time, but never got around to doing mostly due to the fear of coming across as yet another terrible old bore... Well, maybe 'ask' isn't really the best word to use here, since this is more of a, well, a request. An outfit conversion request, to put it more precisely.
Namely, a very dear Sim of mine has been sporting your gorgeous white robe throughout his entire adulthood, but it's time for him to become an elder, and I just can't imagine him wearing anything else besides that outfit. So I was wondering if you, maybe, would consider converting your outfit to make it usable by elders as well. I somehow hoped you would do that as a contribution to GoS' Monthly theme, but I came to the astonishing realization that you actually can't read people's minds (even though it often seems that way); so I decided to cover up your lack of super-power by writing this message to you.;)
I would have preferred not to bother you with this, but since the outfit in question is your own, I figured it would be most adequate to ask you first rather than someone else. If you're too busy at the moment or unable to take up the request for any other reason, please do feel free to tell me so without hesitating. If you are willing to consider my request, however, let me know so that I can start my long prepared happy dance. :)
...Soooo, are you up for it? =)

Many regards,
Dagi_is_a_punk

Is it possible for you to convert Atmos's clothing in this thread: http://esperesa.dreamwidth.org/61970.html to Formal and Winterwear for me? Right now it only comes in Everyday and the sim I have using it just doesn't look right in any other clothing in those sections.

If you can't that's alright, but I would be really appreciate it! :)

Thanks, and I love your stuff!
