Maybe the better questions is, “Why should you want them?”ĭefaults can take an old, dated game like The Sims 2 and make it look fresh and modern.

In the picture above, the creator has provided a link for both the default replacement and the custom version, so you can choose the one you want. Now you know the difference.ĭownload the default version to replace existing content or the custom/non-default version to add the item to your game without replacing anything. In many cases, you may run across CC with two download options – one for default and one for custom or non-default. Anything not a default replacement is just considered “custom” and is sometimes referred to as “non-default.” Normal, non-default CC adds new content to your game.

Here’s a before and after:ĭefault replacements are a type of custom content (abbreviated as CC). I decided to replace them with this lovely pair of jeans from Fated Ophelia. To get rid of them, I can either hide them using hider mods or replace them with a nicer pair of jeans. They replace rather than delete the content so that it appears differently in your game.įor example, I HATE those ugly “ knee jeans” as I call them from The Sims 2 base game. In the Sims series of games there are two types of custom content you can download and install – default replacements and custom/non-default.ĭefault replacements are files that TAKE THE PLACE of content – such as hair, skin, eyes, etc. Since I just made a change in my style, I thought it was a good time to post some instructions and resources for those of you who are new to defaulting.Īnd even if this is old hat for you, I still think you’ll find some useful information here – such as my chart of matching defaults and organization tips. I’ve received a lot of questions about using defaults on Youtube and various social media. I would like you to understand.In this post, I’ll show you how to use default replacements in The Sims 2 to update your graphics, change the way your Sims look, and basically refresh your entire game.

Please make sure “Uncompressed Sim Textures” has been turned on. (Compatible with 144 default colors and EP1 and EP7.)įiles are separated by type of color because they are large (a ton of textures are in them…) It’s late,but I made default replacement skin tones compatible with Dec.
