I am publicly accused of copying content😖
Well... I was accused of stealing content from atticwindowatdawn (I was threatened with public exposure, so this user will now be exposed publicly)
***
At first, the comment was left under a post about a Christmas CC (a functional box for decorations) and then again the same thing under the post with the new pack "Teen Mood #2"
I spent almost the entire day thinking about what I could do that would be similar to what the author atticwindowatdawn did, and you'll be surprised... I DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING!!! but this user writes this:
***
I don't consider myself a copyright pirate because I create everything MYSELF, starting with searching for reference images on Pinterest and ending with modeling and texturing. And here is my inspiration board for the latest pack:
So, as you can see, stickers, scribbles, scuffs, dirt, junk, etc. are used not only by atticwindowatdawn :) I take all references for my work from open sources such as Pinterest, movies, and just from life
***
I adore the aesthetics of life, the aesthetics of dirt and abandonment, so it's not for you to tell me what to do and what aesthetics to create, jamiewats83! You can be happy, now you're public too :)
I will never let anyone attack my work! You can criticize it, some people may not like it, but publicly accusing me of copying or stealing other people's work is disgusting!
If atticwindowatdawn has any complaints about me, we can talk. I am always open to dialogue 💛

OMG this is absurd LOL as someone who follows and paid-subscribes to both of you guys... Yeah you both make cluttered/nostalgic CC but it's literally from different worlds and any similarity is... a hanging bra, really? This person ever been in a teenager's bedroom? Both of you guys are some of my staple cc creators, but Attic's cc is way more "American" and more put together/aestheticized. Which isn't a bad thing, but I cannot see any accusations of ripping off holding any water. I literally use you guys's cc in completely different builds because I always like a bit of clutter in my builds but I make very different things and Attic's stuff will usually go in my "American college student" apartments while your stuff is THE staple for "old rural European house" builds in my game. Different planets, literally. The similarity mostly applies to both of you guys being maxis match-to-mix (modern maxis match? the vanilla stuff's style has changed so much over the years lol) bb creators who clutter up their furniture but... it's a small enough niche and a bread-and-butter enough niche for me that I can name SEVERAL people who are more similar to either of you guys than you are to each other... and even then, that's absolutely not a problem because everyone makes different enough stuff. Yeah you guys are in the same niche but that's what a niche is? I'm confused at this person LOL.
No way! just because the ''vibe'' is similar doesnt mean its a copy paste! your work is amazing, so is atticwindowatdawn's! keep up the amazing work!
Does Jamie also have an issue with Saints Row looking like GTA? XD
like, just bc the cc is with the same aesthetic not exactly means that was copy, stoled or plagiarism. this guy is completly high! lol
People are ridiculous. Your content is great. Attic's is great too. A similar style? Yes, of course... lived in spaces look similar!
i need a sonechko X atticwindowatdawn collab NOWWWWWW
me too😁
Just went to look, and I like both y'all's vibe, but I wouldn't at all say it looks the same. It honestly does look more like your Pinterest references.
i love both yours and attic's cc, and do they have similar vibes? yes! but that doesn't mean its a copy. some people really have no lives and need to accuse and come up with lies to get a kick. its like accusing pierisims of copying felixandre. they have similar vibes but god forbid two creators who make similar grungy, lived in cc do the same. keep doing you, we love the cc and YOU! :)
If you can produce a video showing how you created the meshes, the textures, I think that would go a long way to proving your creations aren't the same. Atticwindowatdaw is a newer creator, she's been making CC for maybe over a year? I've talked to her before, very nice and eager to listen and learn. I highly doubt she is personally accusing you. She makes wonderful shabby chic creations that look used and loved, a rare delight in the pristine beige world of CC. Us fans are rabid pitbulls when we find a creator we like, I see such fans below. I think it is reasonable that 2 creators would be inspired by a similar photo and may make 2 things that look alike. I discovered recently I had 6 different Ice Machines made by 6 different creators, and most looked identical to each other.
sorry, i don't have a dog in this fight but i just wanted to let you know, never heard of the other attic person till you made this post, so i went to their page, clicked on the "most popular posts" and it's right there. "apricity" same bra board and everything. you guys even use similar colors with your fonts, yellow retro fonts, both of you make semi-retro cc in the first place. i don't know, make what you will of it. in 2018 some no body posted in my comments that i made something similar shirts to a person who doesn't even make cc anymore and i said, oh yeah? screw you, lol. people will make hay if you let them. thousands of pieces of cc out there, we are all bound to be similar, ya know? whether you were inspired by the same thing or even each other, it really doesn't matter because every creator has their own dedicated fanbase and followers. there are quite a few creators that make almost identical cc, i just pick the one i like best, the person i enjoy more, and go from there..i personally look at the person themselves over their cc, if they're nice or assholes, how they treat their fan base and followers etc..people will have their own reasons for picking who they follow. and you have to just trust that the ones who know you best, will know your heart, if not your heart, then they will know your track record and trust their gut. am i making sense here? lol
i love your both content , and i don't think you copy! i love your content and this person should think before typing to be honest and much of people do this kind of furnitures with that vibe and its not stealinggggg , LOVE YOUUUUUU <33
yes because theres only so many original ideas for cc. dont even think about making a toilet! Its been done before /lh
I'm laughing, because I wanted to make next pack something for the bathroom😁😁😁
They really need to open the schools omg, please ignore them <3
bruv wtf im so sorry you have to deal with that
I love that both of your aesthetics go together so well! There's a few other creators that have this vibe too. Why would anyone complain, so weird.
This is a joke right lol. You guys both create the same vibe and I LOVE it. I’m trying to curate my personal gameplay aesthetic, and I’m always looking for more creators within the same vibe. It’s so nostalgic, realistic and cozy. I’ve never once thought “wow, this creator copied this one”. Insane. Keep doing you!!!
Please do NOT bother yourself with people like that. You have the same VIBE and aesthetic which is NOT copyrighted to any 1 person. That garbage is so ridiculous and they should be ashamed of themselves. You make great content and I enjoy BOTH you and aw@d's work. Keep doing YOU! <3
you cant copy someone based of their "vibe" bsf
Just because people have similar ideas does NOT mean that one person has been stealing from the other. People who make such accusations are only exposing their own ignorance and immaturity. You and atticwindowatdawn are both awesome creators. <3
please ignore this dumb stuff omg this is so braindead
This is just crazy :( The sims is about life, and life IS messy, thank gold & glitters we have more & more creators diving into maxis match messy aesthetics ! Love your work, loved the life you are bringing with your CC !
do they not know that this has been a very popular aesthetic in the sims community for years lol
Never seen anything so ridiculous in all my life... Its CC its not life threatening, Your cc is amazing! To accuse someone of that when that clearly isn't the case is just wrong.. Please don't let these people get to you :)
Пішов він на всі три букви, у вас шикарні роботи, і цей стиль їй не належить, хай іде в сраку.
о свої тут💅
Hi, I download both your and Atticwindowatdawn cc. You and Atticwindowatdawn create the same "vibe", but your cc is totally different! I feel like your cc also has a "Ukrainian touch." I hope you understand what I want to say :) (English is not my first language). Please don't let this discourage you <3 I'm 100% sure Atticwindowatdawn feels the same! Please block this Jamiewats83! xxx
Ukrainian touch... IT'S SO CUTE!! 😭😭😭
I follow both you and atticwindowatdawn, because you both create content with the lived-in aesthetic that I really love for my game. I get everything you both offer, and I can't say I ever thought that "Hm, ok, these things are suspiciously similar." You're both amazing creators, and both offer CC with a look we don't see that much of. And most importantly, you both have your own style and make different items. I hope you keep making exactly what you love to make, and that you don't let offhand, uninformed comments like the one from that user get you down. Keep creating, and do exactly what you want.
>>> this <<<
I think your cc and atticwindowatdawn's just have the same cozy aesthetic that people love! It's definitely not the same cc tho that jamie person has lost it
I'm so sorry you were subjected to such horrible lies and maltreatment 🫂❤️ We all know you're not the villain this interloper describes.
I love awad but your styles are different. you both choose to do very messy and cluttered feeling cc, but they do a lot more decorative objects and you give a lot more detailed textures. even if you did have a more similar style, that's not stealing. this person is either trolling or like 13. try not to let it ruin your day
NOBODY has ownership over an "aesthetic". You and atticwindowatdawn make completely different meshes and textures. You can't be "exposed" for taking someone's "vibe", that's completely ridiculous. I hope atticwindowatdawn has nothing to do with this person trying to threaten you over nothing.
I have no idea who that other creator is. Sounds like they are jealous and crashing out
Don't let this discourage you! Keep up the good work! :) My favorite thing I have downloaded from you are your default replacements for the tree and present pile! ♥
@this loser if you think similar vibes are copying lemme tell you about the 29392 y2k clothing sets and 939393 luxury white marble furniture packs out here. heaven forbid we have multiple content creators catering to the cozy, rundown and lived-in vibe
1. If "vibes" were limited then those of us that like specific ones would be very limited. 2. I looked through their stuff. While I do like it its not the same as the CC here. 3. Threatening someone to do what you want is blackmail and highly unoriginal of Jamie. Maybe they should be the one to work on coming up with an original idea instead of embarrassing others with their actions.
You deserve better than this. Your love of the world fuels your work, and it makes my Sims' world more lively! You and Atticwindow are distinct, but you guys have similar care and attention to detail, which if anything makes your CC work well together, and I think that's beautiful. This person is hostile and weird for doing this, it's untrue, needless, and cruel.
don't sweat it your stuff is amazing and adds so much to the game... I'm always looking for messy stuff because that's how life is...nobody gets to claim 'messy ' as their own personal aesthetic lol that's outrageous. ive seen the same top done 80+ ways and no one bats an eye wtf
Making lived in cc is not copying someone else lol. It's not the same bc it's a messy aesthetic
wow, jamie is a jerk, sorry this happened to you!
I like when my cc matches style so even if you think you are keep doing it cause I like both the items you guys make 😭. I don't think it's even similar just because it's messy what
It’s jut an aesthetic, don’t let it get to you. As much as I also like the other creator she didn’t invent that aesthetic, it’s been here. You’re doing great, I adore your content. They will always be people that will try to bring you down. Don’t let them have that satisfaction ever.
Honestly you both have completely different styles to me. Your content leans more MM and atticwindowatdawn leans more alpha. I use both. I also think people need to realize at some point people's content will be similar. Thats not theft thats just how life works
Clearly that person saw two creators with the same aesthetic and thought "oh someone is stealing", like god forbid multiple people have the same vibe with their content! It's like saying all modern creators are stealing from each other cause their cc is similar... Don't let that stop you from sharing your work, you and attic do amazing with comfort styles!
Ngl I was fully convinced until now that you were the same person but i see the differences now. Ig you just like similar styles but that doesn't mean you're copying them, lots of other creators do too. Stay strong
Don't let them knock you down , your cc is amazing . Do they not know how many people make the same items of cc ? Yours in no way looks similar to theirs
Honestly ridiculous! Imagine being accused of things like this because your style is similar to someone else's. The "messy" "lived in" aesthetic is just getting more and more popular now and I'm here for it! Good on you for writing this post and exposing this bizarre individual!
I guess I need to take my hanging bra down since only one person on the planet is allowed to perceive one. Absurdity 😭 Yours and attic’s style is absolutely nothing alike and I think she would find this very silly.
You both make the style of “lived in” items but I wouldn’t call it copying (bc it’s not), I never get confused with an item and who made it. It’s not copying, it’s just a similar vibes!!
I have no idea who "Jamie Wats" is but claiming this is just plain silly. Aesthetics are not owned by anyone, a lot of people can find inspiration on them. I would suggest our friend Jamie to touch some grass 🌿
lord forbid two creators have mildly similar styles 😭😭
Cheer up!!! I personally love both your work and atticdownatdawn’s work. I think what you do is amazing, I think both works are different personally. I will keep using your content in my game and I support you!! ❤️❤️❤️
since when are messy rooms and used looking items only allowed to be made by one creator? those are real life objects that countless cc creators have made, including you and atticwindowatdawn, neither of you copied anyone. you're making generic real life objects, there's not really a way to copy that. I think you have nothing to worry about :)
Oh.. This is not right at all! I adore your content! Sending hugs🩷
People be starting stuff just to start stuff. Like girl what 😭. They don’t look similar at all. Maybe the vibe?
I use both of your’s and atticwindowatdawn’s cc and never once thought it looked “too similar”. Some people like to just cause drama. Keep up the great work!
oh this is ridiculous, i love your content! don’t let them get to you 💕
