Technically The Sims 3 does have alpha hairs, so it’s terminology that’s used less in this particular community, but people will use custom hairs, but prefer a more “Maxis Match” texture on it, rather than a texture that looks more shiny or hyper realistic, so to better match the hairstyles already offered by Maxis themselves, and cause less aesthetic clashing. Maxis match cc = cartoony ( or whatever you’d call the original game’s aesthetic ) This term is used quite a bit in The Sims 2 community as well, as the sentiment began there ( could’ve been in the og Sims as well, but I don’t use cc for it, so I can’t be sure ). Maxis Match is whatever cc actually matches the game’s aesthetic, or only slightly improves it, so a lotta the time it uses the original assets, but will edit it a bit or mash it up with other original assets. Unfortunately its an item that can't be made for base game as the required animations are pack dependant.Well alpha is more a blanket term that was adopted with The Sims 4, bc the official hairstyles in the game do not have “alphas”, it’s typically one big “mesh” or chunks with no see through strands, so it doesn’t look as real as actual hair, therefore alpha cc is basically cc that looks more realistic, and less cartoony like the game’s intended aesthetic. You can find all the items by searching COASTAL in the BB catalogue search barĪll items are Base Game compatible, except for the shower which requires the Discover University EP to be functional.

Of course its one of those nuggets of info you knew earlier, so all of my content would snap perfectly, but alas for some you will just have to shimmy into place with good old MOO!

As far as I can tell all hand towels in the game slot in place, however sometimes not quite how you would expect as not all towels are centred on their wall fixes, but rather centred on the item overall. You'll see in the image above that I've actually slotted on the hand towel that came with the Growing Together EP onto the side of the vanity.

I did make a rather cool discovery this month that you can add on a wall decor slot onto an item to make wall decor items slot. This month I focused on the items required for a bathroom. I've been keeping this set quiet this month, but livestreams will resume in a week for the next instalment of the Coastal Collection.
