Hey everyone! After seeing the recent anniversary of New Horizons on March 20th, I wanted to do something about it. I thought converting the floors would be easy, but it was a lot more difficult than I anticipated. Animal Crossing uses a 1024x1024 texture that stretches across the entire floor, while the Sims works in a tile by tile system. A workaround I did for the nonseamless floors was to use 8x8 rugs, so not all of these are actual floors. I did this because I originally had them as regular floors and scaled them by 8, but this didn’t allow freedom of where the pattern was placed. The seamless ones are floors, and I changed the scaling from 1 to 4 to give it the same appearance as it would in Animal Crossing, which worked out quite well. The Sims 3 was worse with this, because I could not figure out a way to change the scaling. Unfortunately, this means ALL of them are rugs in The Sims 3. Create-A-Style is left enabled to allow ease to choose between swatches when its placed down, but I used an overlay for accuracy, so you can’t actually change how they look. Also, if you’ve played New Horizons you’d know some of these are supposed to be animated. That’s something I will have to work on and learn. I believe I could do it for the Sims 2 and Sims 4, no idea about Sims 3 though.

I hope I made the best decision to handle this conversion. My goal is to keep the appearance it had in New Horizons to allow people to recreate their favorite Animal Crossing character’s homes, while keeping our freedom in the Sims. You can refer to this UV scaling tutorial I made here if you don’t like the scaling of the floors I chose. You can also change the model of the rugs to make them smaller or bigger if you wish.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons collection files for The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 are updated here

The Sims 2 and The Sims 4 - seamless 4x4 floors are found under the flooring section. 8x8 nonseamless floors are rugs, under Decorative > Rugs.

moveobjects on may be needed for placement of rugs in certain situations.

[This piece is a mere abstract interpretation of a conversation between Spike and Niah while the 'sun' slowly sets on Mars, which is where the surrounding theme of twilight in their story takes place. Originally in my mind, I would have drawn Niah in a gown with a pink sheer kimono falling off her shoulders, but I decided to go with something casual such as high-waisted pants, tank, and a button-down shirt for this variation. ]

It's a languid, moony scene where Spike walks into her yard to find her lounging on a lawn chair, sipping on some red wine and enjoying the scenery of her garden. She doesn't appear to realize his presence quite yet, as her mind was lost in the enchantment of a daydream for a while now, making her lose partial focus on reality. But for just a moment, Spike stands still to bask in the quiet scene, eyes half-lidded beneath the shadow of his curly fringes as he watches her swallowed up in touches of red and green, smoke from his cigarette swirling across his vision. Spike can only admire from afar. At a distance. With a heart that aches at the sight of her. A heart full of yearning, tastes bittersweet upon his tongue, like forbidden fruit he desires to take a bite out of for just a measly taste. A simple drop of sweet wine that taints her lips a blushing red.
