Hi there! Thank you so much, I’m glad you like my pictures. 😀 And welcome to the wonderful world of TS2! *hands you tea and cookies* As for cc recommendations, could you be a bit more specific? Buy mode, build mode, CAS, etc.? For starters, I can direct you to my newly-constructed resource page. I’m afraid there’s not much there yet in terms of objects/build mode, but I covered my CAS cc pretty exhaustively, as well as my mods folder. 🙂
Some quick build/buy recommendations off the top of my head: veranka, hafiseazale, HugeLunatic, shastakiss, Amovitam, HCove, Buggybooz, m0xxa, HolySimoly, Leefish, Phoenix_Phaerie, Macarossi, Windkeeper.
Even though it’s no longer updated, trappingcrushes is a great place to search for cc – use the tags to narrow down your search. And if you’re looking to get swept up in the world of clutter where no one can hear you scream, ano2uk is the place for you. :3
As for “worlds,” they work a little differently in TS2. For the most part, I download empty neighborhood terrains (typically by voleste or nimitwinklesims) and build them up from scratch. If you search through the neighborhood tag on MTS, though, you’ll come across a few pre-built & ready-to-play hoods.
Hope this helps you get started! Again, if there’s anything more specific I can help you with, just let me know. 🙂
