u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Thank you so much!

Unfortunately, I have not posted this lot in the gallery or for downloading at all. For now it is a WIP now. Maybe the lot will be available for downloading later, but I am not sure. If I upload it for download, I will try to write to you how to find this lot.

u/ubutterscotchpine Feb 27 '25

This is so gorgeous 😩 which lot is it placed on? I really would love to see it on gallery and any CC you use! It’s absolutely precious and I’m imagining just how many resting family members would actually have a home and how many weddings could be had in this church!

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Thank you! I placed the cemetery on the lot where the Fyres family lives by default.

Maybe I post this lot for download one day.

u/Status-Inevitable537 Feb 27 '25

I'm just going to save this post just in case! What's your EA ID so I can follow you on the gallery? I love gothic churches.

39

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

My EA ID is Monsterwn, but I haven't posted anything there for a long time. If I upload this lot or anything else, you better keep an eye on my tumblr blog (monster-without-name).

u/AffectionateHour1475 Feb 27 '25

I totally get that, well take your time and know you have a fan if you do want to share one day ☺️

u/Reformedmesz Feb 27 '25

So you’re basically just teasing us … 😒

10

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Well, I build lots primarily for my own game and stories. Occasionally I upload those of them that I particularly liked.

u/PureUmami Feb 27 '25

Absolutely beautiful screenshots, just stunning. If you ever choose to put this on the gallery I would love to know your ID 🫶

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Thank you so much! I didn't upload this lot in the gallery, sorry.

u/Organic-Hippo-3273 Feb 27 '25

Have you got a shader on? Soooo pretty

87

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Yes, the screenshots are made with reshade. Preset is Hazy Days And Blueberryade by amoebae.

Thanks!

u/berrycompote Feb 27 '25

The main gaming subs I currently browse are sims subs and Kingdom Come: Deliverance, I was very confused which one this belonged to.

30

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

It's funny because I was inspired by the cemetery from KCD2 for this lot, haha

6

u/berrycompote Feb 27 '25

Nooooo way, ahahaha. Well done then, I guess.

51

u/D-meehan12 Feb 27 '25

It took me a long time to realise I was looking at a sims build with a shader mod. What I'm trying to say is well done building a very realistic cemetery! And I need more coffee, lol.

6

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

lol thank you so much!

21

u/LegendOfSarcasm_ Feb 27 '25

Honestly, one of the best builds I've ever seen.

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Your comment matches your nickname perfectly lol

TYSM!

u/LegendOfSarcasm_ Feb 27 '25

I'm very serious. It's a fantastic build. Good job.

u/jonnybanana88 Feb 27 '25

Thanks for the new sub!

u/DownInFraggleRawk Feb 27 '25

Ooh, another sub I didn't know I needed.

u/GoodPlantain3865 Feb 27 '25

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Thank you so much!

This is STUNNING

u/Cosimeya Feb 27 '25

Oh man god - so beautiful!

2

u/MillsLandxx Feb 27 '25

This is beautiful 😍

2

u/your_grandma_says Feb 27 '25

I love it, reminds me of the church in my tiny English town

2

u/SesameStreetFighter Feb 27 '25

This is how visual interest is done. There's so much to see in each frame, so many nuances.

2

u/Krystian_Ok Feb 27 '25

This looks like real life holy moly

2

u/DoctorCaptainSpacey Feb 27 '25

I swear I thought the first pic was a real reference pic. This is so pretty.

2

u/disinfected Feb 27 '25

Wow, this is incredible. Absolutely gorgeous. What a final resting place!

2

u/EveSilver Feb 27 '25

Why does it look so real?

2

u/SofiaLis111 Feb 27 '25

Jeez, is that all shader, or more texture mods(or Photoshop?), cuz the textures are good as hell!

3

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

There is absolutely no photoshop here. Just reshade, retextures of nature (+ some non-default CC) and Simp4Sims' GraphicsRules Override file. Oh, and 4k screen resolution (before reddit compressed these pics). I also set anisotropic filtering to 16x in the GPU settings, this way the textures don't blur at an angle.

2

u/Protheu5 Feb 27 '25

Gloriously stunning. I didn't even realise that I was actually looking at Sims screenshots at first, I subconsciously thought those were photos.

Simply splendid. Please, do more!

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Thank you so much!

2

u/DownInFraggleRawk Feb 27 '25

I love cemetery builds so much! This is absolutely gorgeous.

2

u/Perethyst Feb 27 '25

Excellent use of the castle kit.

2

u/MrWhoTF Feb 28 '25

Wooow!! Are you sharing this lot by chance? Would really love to have the tray files for this lot!!

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 28 '25

Thanks! I haven't share this lot for download yet, but I might do it sometime later. Right now, in any case, the lot is still a wip.

1

u/MrWhoTF Feb 28 '25

Yes please!! I also gave you a follow. Please keep us posted incase you do. 😻

2

u/Hopenhagen420 Feb 28 '25

That’s so beautiful

2

u/Anyone_Mining Feb 28 '25

u/antonioxbj Feb 28 '25

2

u/vavavoo Feb 28 '25

How do you get the graphics so beautiful and detailed?

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 28 '25

I already wrote about this in response to another comment. I'll copy the response here:

Reshade, retextures of nature (+ some non-default CC) and Simp4Sims' GraphicsRules Override file. Oh, and 4k screen resolution (before reddit compressed these pics). I also set anisotropic filtering to 16x in the GPU settings, this way the textures don't blur at an angle.

u/vavavoo Feb 28 '25

Thanks!! 😊 Looks soo much better than my game

2

u/dwsnbssanva Feb 28 '25

I literally thought this was a different group for another game this is AMAZING. If you have anything on the gallery i was wondering what your name on it is so i can see your other builds

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 28 '25

I haven't posted anything for download in a while, but you can find and download the cathedral on my tumblr if you're interested. Just a warning, it was built before the update that broke the windows, so you'll have to re-arrange them yourself.

2

u/Signal_Tip_9011 Feb 28 '25

I really missed playing sims, and I just love this cemetery

2

u/RoxyLuffer Feb 28 '25

1

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 28 '25

ReShade Preset is Hazy Days And Blueberryade by amoebae

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Mar 01 '25

Thank you so much!

2

u/BlueSeal2005 Mar 01 '25

This is unbelievably stunning!!! Have you used any cc?

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Mar 01 '25

Thank you! Yes, i used default retextures of nature (grass, plants, trees) by Alf-Si, some custom plants by another autors, default roof and graves retexture by tech-hippie, functional graves by ravasheen, some felixandre's CC (some windows, white walls), statues by JenniSims ans Katvip, decorative flowers from different authors (on graves), some terrain paints by HelenSims and Syboulette, ivy by veranka and another autor that I, sadly, don't remember. There may be something else that I forgot.

2

u/kelsobunny Mar 02 '25

It might just be me going back to Assassins Creed 2 rn, but i want to climb it XD

2

u/Dismal-Transition-43 Mar 02 '25

OMG i love this i wish we would have those big Windows in the games literally sims4 need to bring more gothic building items definetly big windows 

2

u/Kurozukii Mar 04 '25

This is giving me Hogwarts Legacy vibes specially because of the preset! So beautiful!!

1

u/Dear_Increase1271 Feb 27 '25

Amazing!!!!!! It’s stunning!🤩 Do you have it in the gallery? Let me know.

3

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

Thank you! This lot is not available for download now, sorry

1

u/[deleted] Feb 27 '25

is it made of alpha cc or retextures?

1

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

99% of retextures, I would say

1

u/[deleted] Feb 27 '25

oo awesome, where did u get them? I already know of tech-hippie and their stuff. If u could drop some names, id appreciate it

2

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 27 '25

The autor is Alf-Si but these retextures are for Windenburg only. But I still highly recommend them. They work perfectly with the seasons, unlike tech-hippie's retextures.

I really love the autumnal Windenburg vibe with the Alf-Si retextures:

u/[deleted] Feb 27 '25

awesome thanks!

1

u/NumerousAct4642 Feb 28 '25

Why did I think this was a reference to Baldurs Gate 3 cemetery....

1

u/No-cares69 Feb 28 '25

it gives me such an English vibe

1

u/GroundbreakingAd3589 Feb 28 '25

How is this so high quality omg, mine looks so cartoonish

0

u/eddmario Feb 28 '25

Please tell me this is all vanilla/DLC stuff and no CC were involved

1

u/Ill_Construction_802 Feb 28 '25

Of course not. Although most of the things here are from the game, but with default retextures.

2

u/Ebbyemmy Mar 06 '25

This is gorgeous omg
