About Elysium

My name is Caroline, and I'm 28. Elysium, also known as mods by "Caroline", and "Elysium Mods", is a project that I started by myself, and have been running by myself, since April 2021. I mostly specialize in clothing and acccessory mods for female(and lalafell) characters, and sometimes dabble in hair and texture work. My work veers heavily into sexual, "NSFW" territory, though sometimes I do have SFW releases.You can find previews of my premium content on the previews page.You can find my free, XMA repository, at this link.I run the Elysium Discord, and with that, the largest "no perms, no 'rules', no bias" XIV modding community. Unlike the majority of the other players in this community, I stand by the idea that what my members and supporters do in private and/or outside of my server, is their business- not mine. I'm simply here to provide content, not police anyone.If you'd like to join our community, everyone is welcome: just click this link.


Permissions & Rules

  • 𝐈. Ports ("upscales/downscales", refits, alterations, general edits, modifications, kitbash, etc.) of my mods to any other body mod, to any size, and to any race, are all allowed. SFW/NSFW are irrelevant. I am occasionally open to taking these types of commissions, and information on that can be found on my commissions page.

  • 𝐈𝐈. If reuploading anything including assets from one of my mods, please link back to my original mod somewhere within the post. Don't upload edits of premium mods until they've been publicly released. Premium content containing TF assets will always be released to the public at some point, typically within a 1-2 month period.

  • 𝐈𝐈𝐈. Feel free to use content from publicly available, free releases as assets/resources for your own content. Feel free to use my content in paid commissions.

  • 𝐈𝐕. The resources that I release all have "open permissions"- this means that I do not require that you credit me(though it is always appreciated), or ask me for permission to use them. Using textures or meshes that I release as resources in free, or even paid items like Ko-fi/Gumroad 'sculpts', makeups, etc. is absolutely fine. Feel free to vault. I've released these resources to make things easier in the age of 'if you break one of my 500 perms, I'll cancel you on Twitter' mods, and so that they can be used and enjoyed by everyone- without hogtying people with rules.

  • 𝐕. You may NOT reupload any of my content with restrictive permissions: ie.; "Do not port to Eve, Do not port to <XYZ random body you have some random bias against>".

I've always had a very open stance in terms of my own ToU, often jokingly calling them my 'nonexistent permissions'. The reason for this is simple: I cannot control what people do on the internet, and I'm not going to waste my time trying to. These are, at the end of the day, just pixels. Do what you will with them, and have fun.Additional information and clarifications on commission ToS and FAQ can be found on my FAQ page. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Note - These are my personal permissions/rules and do not reflect the permissions/rules of other modders, or creators' whose content I may use.

Commisions Information

**Commissions are currently closed with few exceptions, as I work through a fairly large backlog. **
Below, you can find commission pricing and information, for when they are open again.
Some things to keep in mind before commissioning me:

  • I'm not interested in social/moral discourse regarding commissions. Don't waste my time, or your own.

  • It's your job to keep up with your favourite modders' permissions, if you care about them. I'm just providing a service and won't be looking into it myself outside of doing what I'm being paid to do; 3D or texture work. I do not require confirmation of permission to begin working on anything.

  • I don't respect or adhere to 99% of "DO NOT PORT TO XYZ BODY" FF modder perms -- If you want something ported to another body, regardless of the mod or creator, I'm your catto.

  • I will only start working once I have been paid in full, or some sort of partial payment plan agreement has been made. Full refunds will be offered if you change your mind before any work has begun. Partial refunds will be offered thereafter, depending on the amount of work completed. I will allow 2 free revisions, all others will incur an additional charge. Revisions are NOT technical issues/issues on my end, and are more for cases of "oh I think the skirt would look better a little bit longer, even though that wasn't part of the original reference", etc.

  • All ported commissions will be posted publicly, unless otherwise requested. Private commissions incur an additional 25% fee for hair, and an additional 50% fee for clothing. These fees are based on the original total cost of the commission in question. I will not be held responsible if someone else ends up porting the commissioned item(s).

  • Commissions are not completed on a first come, first serve basis. You are free to do whatever you want with the completed project, so long as I'm given some type of attribution.

  • I do not work during the weekends(Saturday and Sunday), and this includes modding/commission work. There will be no responses during these days, but I will get back to you once I'm back!

LONG VERSION:

The rates denoted above are the bare minimum and are subject to increase depending on the complexity/time involved in the project. I'll of course let you know before anything is set in stone. For the most part, rates are as I've listed them, but I figured I'd add in this disclaimer for any complex, time consuming requests that I might get. Naturally, smaller projects tend to fall on the lower side of the spectrum, more complex, on the higher.PS: Most things aren't actually as complicated as some modders make them out to be.Please note that clothing items will be fit to one body type- additional bodies/gender will incur an additional fee.Ports
Prices are indicative of just my service charge. Assets must be paid for in full separately. While I can rip some games, it's easier if a mesh can be provided. For the games I can rip from, I don't charge for the rip itself. Sims/SL/etc ports from creators who don't allow public ports must be kept private.
Texture Bakes (Gen 3 to Bibo+/vice versa)
*What this entails is taking existing textures made for one body (be it B+ or Gen 3) and baking it over so that it's compatible with another body. This is ideal for those of you who have Bibo+/Gen 3 as your main body but use a lot of compatibility patch mods which result in the loss of your personalized textures/tattoos/scales/etc. I offer this service free of charge, but tips are appreciated as it usually also involved some texture clean up on my end which can be quite time consuming.
Original, Custom Clothing
*Prices start at £100, and may increase depending on the complexity of the project. Examples include the full outfit in FROM SCRATCH, Sayo, Pain & Suffering, Caprii'bon, Coward, Oink, Almaden, Office Kitten, Priestass, and Nyarried, among others.
Hair
Hairs from Sims creators who allow ports will be posted publicly, unless an additional 25% private free is paid. Hairs from creators who do not allow ports will not be posted publicly by me. SN/other ripped hairs can be posted publicly. Price depends on intricacy.
Hair - Fixing bad Weights/Textures
You've all seen them. The beautiful hair meshes that were simply not done justice, be it because they're stiff as a board when you run, or textureless in that they have basically a blank normal and a multi that looks like it's been taken from a 90's website. In any case, I can fix this. I can make it better. I can dry your tears and make your hair beautiful.
Piercings
Facial piercings, body piercings, etc. of all types. Prices vary depending on complexity, and I'm basing the current rates on no more than 3 simple piercings at a time. We can discuss pricing for complicated/intricate/large amounts of piercings via Discord.
Eyebrows
Pricing depends on whether eyebrows should be standalone on the _etc or attached to a face diffuse/makeup.
Item Mashups
(ie. Combining different tail & ear mods, mashups of vanilla gear, etc.)
Misc Alterations
(ie. Removing certain bits from mods, gender-swapping, upscaling, downscaling, body swaps, and general modifications.) Prices vary depending on complexity.
Body Type Ports/Gender Swaps
I am open to swapping for *any body, as well as any size; Gen 3, TF3, Eve, Freyja, Bibo+ and any of its variants, Gen 2s, Eos, Andro, Rider Thicc, Trans, Otopop, Eve HD, Shapely NSFW/SFW, etc. Any mod, any content.
Lalafell Refits
*Tall to Lalafell refits are available for both SFW and NSFW content. (Spare me the sermon, I don't care.) Please be ready to provide a full FBX of the body you use if NSFW as I don't really use Lalafell so I probably don't have the body installed and in most cases can't be bothered to install it myself. I'm open to porting any content, from any creator, including my own.
Scale/Tattoo Conversions
(ie. Taking Gen 2/Bibo scales/tattoos and converting them to TF3, or vice versa.)
Misc. Texture Work/Tattoos
(ie. Colouration fixes, texture/makeup mashups, basic tattoos, scarrification(see Amunet), blood/gore(see BUTCHER), texture overlays(see Amour), gear upscales, transparency edits(adding semi transparent bits to existing mods), etc.)


Commissioned ports are all subject to be posted publicly. The commissioner is free to do whatever they want with it, outside of redistributing it as their own work. I am open to making mods for any body, as well as any size; Gen 3(Eve, TF, Freyja, Pythia), Bibo+, Gen 2s, XXXL, AF, Otopop, Eve HD, Shapely NSFW/SFW, and all of their variants, etc.Outfits that are meant to remain temporarily private incur an additional 100% fee on top of the original cost. Please note that generally I do NOT do permanently private outfit commissions. While I may offer an extended period in which it will stay private for the commissioner (2-3 months), it eventually will be released on Patreon, be it as a permanently vaulted item, or as an early access item, as per the commissioners preference.Please be aware that I take payments in GBP! A lot of my commissioners are EU or US- so remember to Google the exchange rate so you can know how much it'll be in your currency.I take payment through Paypal and Gumroad! Paypal is preferred, but you can find my Gumroad payment link here if you're more comfortable with that. Paypal info can be exchanged via messages.Any additional questions may be answered in my FAQ page, but feel free to contact me directly if you can't find an answer to what you're looking for.


Patreon Content & Shop

For those of you who'd like to access my content sooner, access exclusive Patron only releases, or just support me so that I can continue providing large scale content dumps at an affordable rate, feel free to check out either my Patreon or Shop.On Patreon, I've set up 4 different tiers, each with different rewards, so read on for more information on them, and to find out which, if any, works best for you.
As an alternative, I've also set up a shop where you can purchase my mods individually if you'd rather not use Patreon, or simply don't have the means or desire to dedicate funds to a subscription and just want one or two mods.
Below, you can find screenshot previews of my most recent Patreon mods. Clicking on any of the previews will direct you to its Patreon release page. You can also find most of these on the shop linked above.You can find my commission info at this link.

Contact Elysium Mods

Please use this form to contact me regarding any business inquiries, notices, or to add a question to the F.A.Q list. Typically, messages will get a response within 2-3 days at the very most. Please note that this form is only for business-related contact, and so general well-wishes, though appreciated, will likely not be responded to.

F.A.Q

Here I will post Q&As of questions that have regularly been asked. If the information you're looking for isn't listed here, please take a look at my ToS page. If you still can't find what you're looking for, you're welcome to message me on Discord or through my contact form and I'll be more than happy to help!


Can I convert your content to Lalafell?

Yes. I'm perfectly okay with conversions of my mods, SFW or NSFW, to Lalafell.


Am I allowed to share mods that I've commissioned from you with friends?

Yes. Once you've paid for something, you're free to do whatever you want with it. All I ask is that you not post it for open download--I'm happy to post it myself if you want something to go public.


What are the guidelines on the resources that you've released?

They're open for use by anyone, for anything. Credit is appreciated but not required. Feel free to do quite literally whatever you want with them. Moreover, I permit my free mods to be used as resources for paid/free/private/whatever work as long as I'm credited and a link to my website is included in the post/modpack.


Is there anything you won't do?

Generally, the only work I won't do is the work that I don't know how to do, or work that is illegal to do. I'm here to provide an impartial modding service, not judge my commissioners' personal choices.


Do you accept OCs as references?

Yes. I'm a firm believer in the notion that no individual can 'own' a lip, eye, nose, etc. shape, or dress style. While I won't accept requests to rip off someone's character 1:1, taking inspiration from a character to a certain degree, be it from a general aesthetic/theme or wanting a particular nose/etc shape, is fine.


What are your preferred payment methods? Are there any payment methods you do not accept?

I'm most comfortable with Paypal due to the security measures they've got in place for both the seller and buyer, but I am also willing to take payment through Gumroad or Shopify. I'm willing to accept essentially any payment method; Crypto, Venmo, CashApp, etc- money is money, I'd even take it through carrier pigeon, if necessary.


Are there any creators whose work you won't accept commissions for?

No. I'm disinterested in the community drama and as mentioned before, I'm here to provide an impartial modding service. Whether or not someone likes me, whether or not someone is frowned upon, or whether or not whatever-- it isn't of any importance to me. You pay me, I do the work. No fuss, no drama, no questions. Just a simple, objective exchange.


Will you ever do Bibo+ mods again?

Yes and no. I'm in the process of creating my own body that follows the same Vanilla assym layout that B+ does (similar to Rei's Lumirei body). This body will be fully Bibo+ compatible in terms of UV/textures, but will not be the B+ mesh, and as such will not be called B+ or credit any of the B+ creators. It will share 90% of its topology with my preferred Gen 3 body, so once it's done, I'll be posting for both bodies with relative ease.


Will you share your private mods/hairs with me? Do you do collabs? Can you feature me in one of your mods?

Provided the mods are mine to share, sure. As far as collabs go, I'm also open to them. I don't take my character very seriously, so it's not a big deal to me. I'm always happy to feature people in my promo shots- screenshots are my least favourite part of mod making since I'm terrible at them.Feel free to PM me on Discord and we can talk about it.


What's the deal with (XYZ) drama? Is Bibo+ a stolen asset? Are you a bad person? Why are you unsupported?

If you're asking these questions, you've likely heard some things about me that may or may not have taken you aback -- fortunately, a majority of these claims are false and as a result have 0 proof/receipts to back them up.You can find a (very long, sorry) document explaining "my side" of events pertaining to drama I've been involved in, including proof/receipts/waybacks/FULL chatlogs (to clear up snippets that were taken WAY out of context), etc., since "trust me bro" isn't valid evidence.TLDR: I'm not Mother Theresa, but I'm also not some sort of evil monster, and I hope that in reading the attached document, you can come to see that I'm just another human bean, same as everyone else.Click here to view the document


Do you accept ultra NSFW commission requests?

Yes. More information can be found on my commissions page. If you've any questions, feel free to reach out through Discord.


Can I commission you in secret?

Yes. I already have several recurring customers who would rather not have their commissions/names publicized, and am always happy to add more. 'Secret' commissions incur an additional 20% fee since I won't be able to record the commission in my portfolio.


What's your refund policy?

If you require a refund for whatever reason before the work has been delivered to you, I'm always happy to oblige. Once the commission has been delivered and okayed I will consider it fulfilled, and refunds will not be offered. I will only refund commissions that have already been started on (50% of the work completed) if I'm able to recover my losses by posting it somewhere or reselling it to someone else. Commissions for things like private hairs or content with iron-clad perms that I'm not allowed to post will not be refunded.


What programs do you use for your work?

Currently, I use Autodesk 3ds Max 2023, Substance Painter, Substance Designer, ZBrush, Daz Studio, and a small amount of Photoshop CS6, and Marvelous Designer.


Can you teach me to mod?

Yes and no. Modding is something you kind of have to teach yourself, but I am willing to give you the starter essentials when I have time, and occasionally I do streams in my server where I show how I work from start to finish. I also have a resources channel within Elysium where I post video guides and helpful information.


I really love X mod of yours but I can't afford to subscribe to your Patreon, could you send it to me for free?

Sure. If for whatever reason you really want something and can't afford it, I'm happy to send it out. All I ask is for it to not become habitual and that people don't take advantage of my openness with my mods. Almost all of my clothing mods become public eventually(usually within a month~) due to Titan's permissions against vaulted content- so even if you can't afford it, you'll be able to enjoy it for free down the line.


I have a bit of an unconventional commission request but I'm afraid to approach you about it..?

Don't be. I've gotten a fair share of 'unconventional' requests, and a fair share of requests that would've had most other modders running to Twitter to cause a scene. I'm not unprofessional. If I don't want to/can't do something, I'll simply say "no thanks" and move on. I'm not going to make some massive Google doc outing someone for wanting 'weird shit' commissioned and post it on Twitter. I'm here to run an impartial modding service, not be the internet/mod police and judge people/their kinks.


Can I port your mod to Eve or <some other body mod>?

Of course! There are no restrictions as to which body mod you can port any of my content to-- knock yourself out. Depending on what it is, I can also be commissioned to port it for you. Feel free to check my commissions page.
