Sims 1 Music

Mod Description

I had always been waiting for someone to add the music from the first The Sims game to The Sims 3. I didn't know much about mods until I finally decided to make one myself.

This mod adds all the music from The Sims 1 (including its expansions) to The Sims 3 in Build, Buy, Map and radio stations. Besides, each loading screen music of The Sims will play in the splash screen. This mod DOESN'T replace The Sims 3 music.

I've split the mod into several compressed files based on the game's expansions.

Important notes
With the exception of "TS1Music_Basegame" and "TS1Music_Basegame_Stereo_Latin" which require "TS1Music_Basegame_Shared" to work properly, all the packages are independent of one another, meaning you don't need to install all of them for the game to work; simply download the ones you want based on the music you wish to add to the game.

If you have The Sims 3: 70s, 80s, & 90s Stuff, it isn't recommended that you use "TS1Music_Basegame_Stereo_Rock_NoSP08", "TS1Music_EP2_House_Party_Stereo_Disco" or "TS1Music_EP2_House_Party_Stereo_Rap" as the music included in those packages is already present in that specific stuff pack. Nothing bad will happen if you do it, other than having duplicate music, but you can't have both "TS1Music_Basegame_Stereo_Rock" and "TS1Music_Basegame_Stereo_Rock_NoSP08" at the same time; you have to choose just one, since they add some of the same songs to the same radio station (Rock).

"TS1Music_BroadcasterInjector" isn't necessary for the soundtracks to play in their respective game modes. Use it only if you would also like to view and listen the music from this mod, based on what you have downloaded in Options -> Music.

"MoreFavorites_Jazz" is optional, if you've downloaded "TS1Music_EP5_Unleashed_Stereo_Jazz" and if you'd like your sims to have jazz as their favorite music, this would be the right mod for that. Just make sure to also download More Favorites – Add Custom Favorite Food, Music, and Colors so that it works correctly. If you are using "MoreFavorites_TS4_Music" by Destrospean, do NOT download this package, as my version is identical to the one included in his package; I simply separated Jazz from the favorites group he created, since he includes other music genres that I haven't, but essentially, it is the same thing. Therefore, if you have already downloaded his package, it will work just fine, and this one is unnecessary.

On another note, but no less importantly, if you have "Converted Sims 4 Radio Stations (23 Stations, 226 Songs) " by garrettgivre and use "TS1Music_EP5_Unleashed_Stereo_Jazz", there won't be any conflicts; the Jazz station he converted will merge with the one from this mod, giving you a playlist featuring songs from both The Sims 1 and The Sims 4 on the same custom radio station.
