This is just plain awesome, thank you so much for sharing! The elder mesh in particular makes me happy-- I use a Warlokk mesh as a default EF nude that's a bit closer to the Maxis shape, and the boobs on this one look about like they would if you covered up my nudie. There are never enough TF gown meshes with pregmorphs, either-- what can I say, I let my girls get married and have babies whenever they want.

Thanks :)

I can't stand the sag, it drives me nuts. I never used to play elders ever because of it.

I'm just working on iamliz13's mermaid mesh at the moment; elder's done milkshape wise, teen time now. Why do I always get ideas for these projects when I still have a half finished default replacing project lol.

I wish this thing had an edit button.

I don't use inteen because I use a lot of hacks already and can't be dealing with all the clashes with inteen lol.

As long as you run the HDCU now and then (and sometimes play with load order), InTeen is actually NOT that bad as far as conflicts go-- I've got something like four hundred mods now, and the only conflicts I have are expected and resolved by load order. Or Atavera's custom instrument hack conflicting with itself. I've never figured that one out.

I think it conflicts with ACR though? Don't know, heard lots of horror stories about inteen conflicts lol.

Lol conflicting with itself? That's... interesting.

Nope, ACR was made to cooperate with Inteen. I quite cheerfully use both.

Ah I didn't know that lol.

Because the best ideas come when you're supposed to be doing something else? I'm supposed to be researching for NaNo, but here I am, dicking around in SimPE...

Seems to be the case lol. I've got tons of defaults to upload (for my 'normal' game). But have lots of bodyshop caps to edit. Would get in game shots but my downloads are way too bloated for that; yet here I am adding more to them lol.

Yep, I've got chausses I need to upload (except I don't; Cynnix did age conversions and now I have to do those), in-game shots of a ton of stuff to get... I've got a hat-dump almost ready to go, but I'm waiting on Marja, G-Knee, and Cynnix for meshes... Eleventeen thousand things to do.

Oh gawd, I just had another mesh idea... ack.

I've always hated getting in game shots of bodyshop stuff, always seems to take me forever.

Oooh a dump XD I get nearly all my hair from those now lol. Reminds me, got a bunch of hair re-textures to finish.

Yup yup yup. Some hairs, some hat hairs, some hat accessories. Finally my Sims can have their hair decently covered!

Being mesh-impaired myself, I am a terrible person to ask NOT to enable mesh ideas. Meshes are awesome.

Ooh XD

Haha. I used to get ideas before I could mesh, it was what made me learn. I quite like the meshing part but the simpe'ing stuff... ugh. Well not that keen on morph making either lol. Shoe swaps are pretty easy though... I was thinking of tig's alpha male mesh with those poulaines. I saw a sorta long slash necked belted tunic outfit with those on a history program yesterday lol.

Meshing would drive me crazy, I think, because I sew. And I'm pretty good at it, if I do say so myself (even if I only sew for dolls. Must learn to use machine). Not being able to immediately make in pixels what I see in my head and what I can already make with my hands would make me SO frustrated I can't even tell you.

FR's Poulaines belong on everything remotely Medieval. (Amaryll's flats are also quite nice.) I'm glad you put a pregmorph on your teen female even if you don't like morph making-- pregmorphs make everything a thousand times better, especially for teenagers and males (because finding AF pregmorphs is relatively easy).

Yeah I can't mesh from scratch and have to mush bits together which can get annoying if the pieces I want don't exist. I can't texture from scratch either which bugs me; I tried to learn but I lack drawing skillz.

Yeah amaryll's flats work well on just about everything lol. Did women wear poulaines?

Well to be honest I just used the af morph when I scaled down from adult to teen. Fixed the shoulders etc at the same time as the normal morph. Had to remake the fat morph though. Morphs can be fiddly and I don't like fiddly especially as I have the most unresponsive mouse ever, probably about time I got a new one.

I keep feeling like I could texture better if I invested in a tablet, but then I ask myself why I want to bother investing in a tablet when all I'd use it for would be the occasional Sim doodad.

Women did indeed wear poulaines! Shoe styles were pretty unisex, really.

I hear you on mouse problems. My scroll button crapped out on me back at the end of July-- it is next to impossible to take non-Bodyshop pictures if your scroll wheel won't go.
