Ephemera makes truly gorgeous skins if you’re looking for a replacement over Peggy’s. I tried it out and I seriously love it. My Sims look much more realistic and less plasticy looking.

Credit goes to Ephemera. (I do not claim credit for this. Please only use it for personal gameplay.)

I have uploaded them into my mediafire account so have it!

Just a helpful information on Sims 3’s issues, patching and custom content.

Please refer to my older post on how to install custom content and mods here: http://notlegacyderp.tumblr.com/post/11430662073/how-to-use-mods-and-custom-content-and-cc-downloads

It’s very easy to do, only 6 steps.

1. My EA download manager refuses to patch!

There is a standalone patcher released by EA which you can patch to the latest update here: http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/175477.page Can be downloaded and executed directly as an installation file.

2. Where can I download the latest version of Awesomemod?

Here: http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?board=31.0

3. Any recommendation on hair downloads?

Try Anubis 360’s site, here: http://anubis360.blogspot.com/

4. What about eyes and contact lenses?

Imminent Fate here: http://masteringts3.blogspot.com/ Or check my first link on installing mods, I linked Tifa’s contacts.

5. Skin?

Either peggyzone (see my first link) or Ephemera (In Chinese) here: http://ephemera1969.blogbus.com/tag/%E4%B8%8B%E8%BD%BD/ (scroooooll down til you see the download links)

6. Body?

234jiao’s: http://www.modthesims.info/member.php?u=3041853

7. Furniture?

Uh I don’t use custom content furnitures, they are fucking up with the current patch right now. Get stuff packs maybe?

8. I have Pets Limited Edition. Where do I get my exclusive Graham’s pet store and IAMS branded content starter kit?

Make an account on The Sims 3’s official site. Register your game and expansion and go to Purchase history, it should be listed there for download.

9. What’s so special about the exclusive pet store?

Not much. It’s a cute cottage pet store. It has a few items like 2 new dog houses, a luxury pet bed, 2 pet store windows and doors. That’s it. You’re not missing out anything majorly.

Edit: 10. Where can I download your Sim Ezi and Zain?

Here on my Sims 3 page: http://www.thesims3.com/mypage/Skygrave Look under My Studio.

Just a warning: Zain’s hair is a custom content hair. I’ll put up a link to the download some other time.

Ezi’s cats are from Pets expansion. Can’t play them if you have no Pets expansion.

Just a note to everyone, the Sims 3 Pets Expansion has been released today! And also a patch that comes along with it. Make sure you patch your Sims 3 before installing Pets.

However, I hear people have issues patching to the latest update. So here’s a EA released manual patch download:

http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/175477.page

And MAKE SURE before patching, you remove your custom content and mods. I’ve been reading through Sims 3 official forums and there has been a lot of complaints how the patch and expansion broke their custom content (especially furniture). So best is to remove your mods folder, update patch, install Pets then put the CC back in.

I discovered that Sims 3 custom content no longer puts its mod folders under the Sims 3 directory nor its resource.cfg file will go there (it will not work anymore). Instead, mods and .package files must go into C:/Documents/Electronic Arts/Sims 3/Mods. And of course, you don’t just dump your .package files in there and expect magic to happen. A certain framework and some files are needed to make custom content appear in your Create-A-Sims selection.

To do this, you need follow this step-by-step instructions here: http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Installing_Sims_3_Package_Files/Setup_and_Files

It’s pretty simply once you follow the instructions exactly as it is and download the framework file.

Once you done that, woot! You’re ready to download custom content and use them. All .package files must go into C:/Documents/Electronic Arts/Sims 3/Mods/Packages

Custom content credit goes to Tifa and Peggyzone.

Eyes 31 by Tifa - Has a .sims3pack for default eyes and .package file for contact lens version (Select it under Make Up when you use CAS) Download link here.

Eyes N7 by Tifa. Only available as contact lens version in a .package file. Download link here.
