How was your week in sims? TELL US ALL ABOUT IT IN THIS THREAD. We would like to know about your new legacy heir or your conquer of that mesh with which you were doing battle!

I have you'd fourteen hairs! ... I had Body Shop open while I was working on my Servos and I got bored of wood.

Servos are nearly complete! I am very excited. However I am ridiculously lazy about taking pictures, seriously.

Do flaming poo bags disappear if you happen to miss their delivery?

*verb* 8D

I am super excited for those Servos, even though I don't play medieval, I love having steampunkish robotics in my game.

I don't think they do, actually. IIRC, the last time I had one, it just stayed there smoldering. Forever. Until I directed a sim to stamp it out. They couldn't just dispose of it or what have you, unfortunately. Bear in mind, though, my game is a cesspool of hacks so I am probably not the most objective of sources, hurr.

Thank you! I'm pretty excited about 'em myself. I'll be putting out a fully decorated version, a blank-just-joints version, a package to make any Servo matte instead of shiny (people keep asking for matte Servos, and apparently I'm not cool enough to stick by my guns Pescado-style and say "No, because I want the shiny kind," so), a buyable Servo hack with a less-tech, more-magic catalog description, and I really probably ought to make it so there's the new description with buyable option... wait there was something else-- Oh yes! PSDs of the head and body, because if people want a woodgrained-puppet skintone, I support that, but I don't wanna DO it.

Hrm. Must not have gotten one from my wicked witch's really bad date, then. Perhaps if she set someone on fire...

Reading this gave me a :D face, just so you know.

Well, heaven knows I love me some Servos.

I made Twilight sims. Someone come put me out of my misery.

It's not my fault, it began with someone else making horrendous ones and me going "Oh I can do that better and I'll PROVE IT."

You did tons better. You actually grasp that Sims are stylized and making them ZOMG TOTALLY REALISTIC is a fruitless endeavor.

That photoshoot and accompanying commentary is a gas. :D

Half the problem is no one realizes that you need to sculpt a neutral-faced sim with a neutral face and not paint on expression lines. (Then you need to look at all ages, breed with face-template sims, and TWEAK.)

I love Twilight like I love Attack of the Clones--because the best comedy is often unintentional.

I didn't actually -do- anything, but I thought about it! ... *cough*

My next projects are definitely to get the MtF Gaius hair conversion done, and to finish the base game set of the adjusted male fat morph/properly fitted clothes default replacements.

I support all of these endeavors omg.

Mmm, I do so love to hear the words 'default' and 'morph' together. ... Er, not to heap defaults on defaults, but I'd guess the updated fat morph defaults wouldn't work with any existing preg morph defaults, would they?

(My testerhood is full of Knowledge Sims-- they're easy to keep happy but they tend to stargaze autonomously...)

No, but I could stick preg morphs on anything that would sensibly fit a preggers person. It's more work, but it isn't hard.

I know a bunch of new men's preggo defaults came out recently, I just forget who did it. Maybe you can steal 'em.

Oh hey, there's an idea. :D It'll help, although Iäm already cutting down some of the workload because I'm not going to do every single piece of dude clothing -- some of the basegame stuff is too ass-ugly to exist. Imma provide a hider for those, though.

Aha! Found the ones I was thinking of. The new set does Seasons, Free Time, and Kitchen and Bath, by Whimsical Krikkiter and then there are the ones for BV and H&M that're on MTS (a search for Manternity finds those) and I know FR did the base game separates, but I need to go dig up a link to her LJ to find those.

And that's all I know of. If I knew of more, I'd have them.

Awesome. :D Thanks.

Will that mesh conversion include a retexture? I love the shape, but the original textures remind me of something that came out of the Mop-Top Hair Shop playdoh set I had as a kid.

quinctia, I think you've really hit the nail on the head there - I've always liked the mesh too, but something about the texture always bothered me, and now I know what it was! :D

Hee, playdoh. X) I'm going to be using AlfredAskew's curly retexture on it, Pooklet'd (with matching Pooklet'd versions for the guys).

My game broke, again. It's been sort of broken for the past few months but I recently got it to work again, then yesterday it broke. I've just given up trying to fix it. It would be great if when I get my new computer, it will magically fix its self but I don't think that's going to happen.

I, uh, was going to start a Medieval 'hood because I was looking at Hat's Dreamwidth and I was like "Ooh ooh, I want one!". Then I went on a downloading spree and was extremely excited until I actually got INTO the game and started a new hood. I then remembered what I didn't like about starting a new 'hood from scratch...it's from scratch. I then became obnoxiously lazy, and... my endeavors went no where. Thank goodness I put everything in a "Medieval Hood" folder, so I could just take it out before my game dies.

I'm ~still~ working on recoloring some of Mouseyblue's eyes, but I don't know what colors I want D: I did get the original set genetisized though, along with a new set of defaults I thought that was going to be way harder than it was :D

And there's a hair that's sitting on my hard drive because I've had the male version Pooklet'd since before Christmas but I don't want to do the female version, when it's really more of a feminine hair anyways. Lazy lazy lazy lazy *grumbles*

I made a new custom neighborhood, and discovered that custom neighborhood objects slow my game down so it's almost unplayable, so I deleted them. I never bother with decorating my neighborhoods, but I had a fit of madness that made me want to make my neighborhoods all pretty.

Also, my game crashed last time I tried to make my sims buy clothes, because I have too many custom clothes. Restraint, I have none.
