What Am I Even Doing

what am i even doing

Hi, I was playing Sims 2 recently and noticed how I can't stand how ugly is stack of books that child sims put on their chair before playing chess. I know yo make beautiful replacements of random thing in the game that I couldn't even thought are possible to replace but can you consider replacing the texture of those books? No pressure, tho, I just love your works and think you're really talented :)

Hello dear anon! :-D I agree, the texture is not the prettiest. I did try and re-make Maxis' texture from scratch but it didn't look that good haha.. so I went and did something completely different (which I don't usually do since I want to keep Maxis' "feeling" but this texture was not possible to save lol) so this is how my default looks right now:

what do you think? Yay or nay?

Also: I still don't take requests but I have a lot of stuff on my to-do list (this was an item on there) and this ask made me want to do it now hahaha. So yeah, sending asks formatted as ideas are completely okay! Thank you for the kind words as well anon<3

Yet another default no one really needs 🥴 my urge to poke at absolutely everything in this game is absurd but since I've already made it, I might as well share it.

This is a default replacement (mesh + texture) for the bubble bottle and wand from OFB. My texture is 128x128 for the bottle (EA's was 64x64) but the wand's texture is the same (32x32), I did edit the UV-mapping on the wand a tiny bit and rotated the bottle mesh slightly so more of the texture is shown.

Sorry for the bad previews, it was really hard to get a good angle of it in-game since I couldn't spawn it via the accessory cheat for some reason? So here is a shitty milkshape gif showing all sides:

okay so I might have spent the entire evening yesterday rigging my tragic man.....

My ssd drive is completely full. Not too surprised since I scanned a lot of negatives I got back from the lab recently, and I am in need of a new drive (I have so much stuff omfg) so I got a bigger ssd which my dad made a clean install of Windows on. Yay!

BUT just when I thought I had everything under control, my trash-backup-ish disk "died" (I'm shocked it held on for this long tbh hahaha). Everything I had on there is stuff I have on my C:\ drive so it's not pure panic, but I downloaded Diskdrill to see if I could get it all back (instead of trying to figure out what I had on it, my memory is pure shit) and somehow it even found files I had deleted???? I found a BUNCH (if not all) of the files I downloaded off of carrigon's site some years ago before her 4shared files died. Fingers crossed they aren't corrupt when I restore them, and I can upload them to packrat!
