Wip – Kitty Sleeping Bag

I got it to work. Gonna go sleep for a week now. 😛

Hi, MsPoodle. I’ve seen you have made taxi default replacement a few years ago and I was wondering, are you willing to do a futuristic taxi default replacement? Like the ones in ITF?? Much love, thanks.

Hello there Anon! Sending you love too!

Maybe, possibly……..but honestly not right now. I will put it on my future to do list with the boat taxis defaults. It’s not hard to do just really time consuming with having to test each one. Probably the next go round will just be to provide one and let y’all change them to whatever color you want. So we’ll see.

Wip – *sigh*

Fubar……fix one thing and it causes something else to not work. *grumble* I think I’m going to put this in the ‘Look at this later in like 2 years from now’ folder.

Wip – No really, It’s a sleeping bag… Spent most…

omg i’ve felt that way a lot of times my friend, but it’s almost done!! TSRW Is a nightmare sometimes, will you try to use TT3? I hope it won’t mess the mesh yikes

TT3 won’t work either. Because it’s a modular object that uses the texture files from the first object (it’s hard coded or I would change that) it won’t work. I did try changing the tiling in s3pe which did work when the rolled object is placed but after it is used it goes back to the 1×1 tiling. EA just screwed this object up when they made it for the Generations EP. Most of the coding they did was screwy anyways. 

I’m going to finish it and get it working. Then I’m gonna play around with it and see if I can get it to budge. The one time I thought I had it working the diffuse did that weird thing were it turned orange and overid all the masking files like with the trolley. I don’t fully understand how that works because sometimes certain objects only use your multiplier or specular image and then it does this weird file type where it makes up something from all your images and tries to be Picaso. *you know boobs on your face* sorta thing. And those you can’t edit.

Wip – No really, It’s a sleeping bag…

Spent most of the day making the bag part not look so uniform which meant I had to fix more clipping especially for voluptuous sims. Still might have clipping for the custom nightie wearing sim but for a basic nude sim it does good. And then I fixed the uv’s from all that. So there will be the rolled version to start with (ea’s mesh) then to the open sleeping version. Now to finish the rest of the texture work. 

Wip – Tadpole Condom

Joking aside, Had to come up with a new game plan. Going to have to use Arsil’s mod after all. Even though I got the mesh to work with the sleeping bag the textures would not budge even after I changed them and made sure they were linked to everything. It’s just hardcoded to reference those images. So…. it will be a sleeping bag that is actually a bed. And I’m going to have to make it a little bigger at the bottom because his bone(hehe) assignments are a little different than the sleeping bag.I may just remesh the whole thing because I wanted it to look a lot more tousled. Idk the pillow part is cute so that is salvageable. It’s late so I’ll work on it tomorrow.

Um… I’m sorry but aren’t you a bit too old to be playing the sims? You’re 44 for pete’s sake.

jenba:

Hm, interesting question, Anon. I’m not sure how to answer it without coming across as defensive. I don’t think there’s an age limit to playing the Sims, or any video game, really. I know a ton of Simmers who are my age or older (I’d hazard a guess that half the community consists of “older” Simmers). 🙂 We enjoy the game because it makes us laugh, or it’s therapeutic, or a creative outlet. Should we stop because we’ve reached some magical grown-up age? Should I stop watching cartoons, too? I’m not being snarky here, I’m really curious. At what age do you think people should stop playing the Sims, and why?

@jenba I guess you better get your bifocals, knitting needles, yarn, rocking chair and make plans for that nursing home gig. lol

Anon you’re trolling, right?! Because I hope you realize that if it wasn’t for all of us old crabs you wouldn’t have amazing things like MTS, TSR, loads of custom content, lots, worlds, tutorials…..etc. to make your game (whatever version) anywhere near playable/enjoyable.

Wip – Frog Capsule 😛

*sigh*

Fixed the texture linking issue….now the object is being funky when it changes from rolled to open when it worked before. Ugh…

Edit – 

Fixed it – 

Now I can finish meshing it and do some texturing because that’s just horrendous. Let be honest. lol

Wip – Sleeping Bag thing

I’ve been wanting to give the games sleeping bags a makeover ever since we got them with Generations. They are a weird object and require a little more than just cloning and doing the normal meshing. So…I thought I was going to have to use Arsil’s Futon mod but after some tinkering I got the actual sleeping bags to work as another option. Now to fix that clipping and see about texturing.
