WCIF a particular couch: new thread for Tempsqua

puzzlezaddict

A new member is looking for a couch they used to have in-game. It might be store content but is probably cc. The player provided an image that closely resembles the couch in this post:

Any ideas or insight would be appreciated.

There is no Store couch even close to that - wish there were. I've been around since beginning of Sims 3 time, and I can't imagine I wouldn't have seen it if it were ever available in the Store. So, cc from somewhere.

I've got my game open right now and had a look. I have all EP's and all the store content, and there isn't a store couch ( or even an EP one ) that looks like that, nor has there ever been, from my memory, not even when the store began. I would be extremely happy to be proven wrong though, because I'd like a couch like that one.

The only store couches that seem to actually have any cushions are the Divine Divan ( moroccan sofa from ts2 conversion ) and La Dauphine's sofa. The "Cradle of Civilisation" couch from WA also looks a little like the picture but is preset in brown not blue and has no cushions.
None of the initial presets in most of the couches that I can find, are dark blue either apart from base game "Big Sky Country" couch.

Holy Simoly has the Arizona couch that somewhat resembles the picture, but it is more square and not round backed.



Edit - Cradle of Civilisation ( I styled it in blue )

Looks to be like this couch, the pillows are probably seperate.The name of the creator is in the corner of the pic

I know you said its not custom content, but I'm almost 99.9% sure this is the couch.

@GraceyManor hit the target dead on. It's a combination of two CC. She put up the link for the cushions. And the link for the couch is here.

So combine those two cc and you got the couch in the picture. Or better yet, get the whole set which the link is in the cc's description at TSR.

@Nikkei_Simmer
I thought it was it, but they said they're pretty sure its a store item.

Pary

They posted that picture of a couch that most closely resembles the item they were looking for. That wasn't the couch they actually want.
Since it has the creators name on the picture it wouldn't have been difficult to locate, and they probably wouldn't have needed to post an entire WCIF if that was the actual item they were looking for.

GraceyManor

@Pary
I thought that to.Because the couch comes up as soon as I google the creators named, I wondered why they said they couldn't find it.
I think I might know which couch they are looking for.But I gotta go in-game to look.

Thank you to all of you for your suggestions! Thank you @Pary for realising I wasn’t looking for that exact couch but one similar, I’ve had loads of people assume I didn’t read the name on it haha. The Arizona couch you posted is very like what I remember so will have a look at it once I’m back on my pc and can see it in game ☺️ If this works I will be so thankful that I don’t have to scour through the exchange for lots I downloaded in hopes to get the couch back!

Tempsqa97

Also just want to clarify that I didn’t think it was CC because I’ve only ever gotten lots and worlds off the exchange and didn’t know they could come included. Sorry for the confusion!!

Pary

@Tempsqa97 , yes, if installed in someone's game in sims3pack CC can transfer with lots and such. Since it is more than likely CC, it might prove somewhat difficult to locate the exact sofa you're looking for.

One somewhat shaped like that could be a SimsInParis conversion, which I've just had a bit of a browse for, but have been inundated with TS4 conversions instead, which is horrendously annoying.

If you have an account over at ModTheSims, I would also suggest posting a WCIF in the section there too. People are usually extremely good at finding things over there.

GraceyManor

And like I said, I don't know why, but some CC items show up as "store items" in game.
Which I get confused all the time with it.

I didn't "assume" you didn't read, I misread your post. And thought that was the couch you were looking for.I apologize.
That's what I get for sticking my nose in.

@GraceyManor i wasn’t meaning for it to come across rude, sorry! Thank you for your help, I really should have been more clear but I’ve never posted for help before and am a little socially awkward haha. I am really grateful to everybody who helped!!

Tempsqa97

@Pary is there a link to the Arizona couch? Is it on the exchange or another site?

Pary

Holy Simoly expired a while ago, but the site, along with others was archived by LiquidSims.
HERE is the Arizona seating page

Edit - Those are Holy Simoly's original converted meshes, and I am not sure if they need to be rigfixed for Pets. They were created before the pets patch that broke slots in chairs, beds and baths, and I don't know if they were ever updated before Holy Simoly vanished from the community.

In case they cause an issue in games, I've uploaded my fixed meshes HERE
They're in package format, as the Granthes tool never fixed s3packs to my knowledge, and it only worked with packages.

I'm socially awkward as well.I don't post often on the forums. You didn't. No worries.
I looked through all my CC and my store items and couldn't find anything.I think the one Pary posted is very nice,
might be a good option.

Thanks everyone for your ideas and for taking the time to look. This is such a helpful community. And an extra thanks to @Pary for the uploads and the info about the issues post-Pets.

@Tempsqa97 , I don't know if you're still checking here ,but was the couch you're looking for a SnarkyShark sims2 conversion by Architectural Sims, by any chance?
