Lol, sounds like a good idea. Have fun with it

Oh man, I have so many recolors of BB's niche set! I use it a lot at least, but I really hate digging for the recolor I want. The same can be said for the BV travel poster!

I think that I will do that to relax a bit from the crazy and nerving downloads sorting and purging.

While I'm sorting like mad (when will it be finished, LOL... question mark)...

I'd have a good resolution from now : stop collecting over 10 textures in all Pooklets or whatso, especially for clothes meshes, Jonesi blankets, cushions. Because good Goddess ! this drives me so mad from browsing for example the whole clothing catalogue (esp. mediaval beautiful tops and boho skirts), all Droopsi, and others' blanket recolours.

I don't always check the file size of each texture package but it can be very high. One as an example is good, I'd compress as winrar all other textures to avoid have them cluttered up in my catalogues.

______________

I also avoid downloading of way too many add-ons to BB niches and other repositoried furniture sets. From sims2artists I already have issues to know exactly what is needed for table cloths, curtains, all the small bits to not have the whole set flash blue ingame. I neded sometimes to visit the sims2artists several times for the required Master meshes, copy in text documents to keep all in mind... LOL !

Once I retextured a taroo sofa with rattan wood but the wood part always reverted back to the vanilla fugly simplan-X bed frame colour, so I simply took back Taroo's single sofa mesh (which is perfect). Problem solved !

In fact, there are two hairs sets called Sweet. And the one pictured is named Sweet Curls by some people and it was retextured Remi style as well.

I don't know if this hair is downloaded often but perhaps other people will request a fix for this mesh.

I checked rented-space's tumblr because I know she's fixed a lot, but I don't see it among them. I'll have to do a little more digging.

Origin is letting us play Sims4 for free on Game Time again. Anyone considering the game should give it a try!

Haha, I showed to my gay friend a pic of his self-Sim via E-mail and he liked it but didn't say more except "have fun now, doll!". I'd have fun ingame and not play him as 100 % gay (becasue in RL he wasn't 100 % gay, some women were attracted or he was). I'd use him for breeding, LOL... see if a Sim baby or child would look like him a bit ? Especially the brown eyes and lovely lips. For the personality nobody could tell (LOL).

I just posted a topic in the Sims 2 Help area, BTW.

Sims 2 Help/Questions/WCIFs / EP07 Sweet curls by Trapping (3t2 conversion) transparency issue

« Last post by LizzyL on Nov 09, 2015, 11:01AM »

Since I'm not at tumblr but knowing that somebody fixed Trapping hair meshes, I noticed a tranparency issue for this lovely hair :



It's very visible on the back, like scalp skin showing here and there, small bits.

I read about the transparency issue with hair converted to S2, but don't know if it needs to e fixed in Milkshape or if it can be solved in SimPE (DXTFormat does nothing for me). I don't know what 3 items tab can be, by the way.

I love this hair very much but just this issue is annoying me.

Link to Trapping's LiveJournal thread for this hair :

So any help or fixing could be very much appreciated. Thanks.

I think I got my bodybuilder stuff from Kielen's site too. Although, now that I think about it I tried out some male runner's body's too. I didn't really like it :/

Did you show him his simself?

One Body Builder mesh has a weird thing I don't like around the neckor it's Huge Body Builder. For males I use a few meshes by G-Knee and from one site, by Kielen (http://kieda.net/), a little few from Synaptic Sims Lair, others by Julie J. It depends.

Currently I don't have big needs for male outfits or meshes. I don't think that I'm very talented to create male Sims. But the one after my gay friend is awesome... I put a lot of work into it (LOL). And for an outfit for him it wasn't too hard because the real man in the 70's and 80's didn't wear much... It was the hippie days.
