Borked Face Templates and Pre-Made Sims (and how to fix them!)

Sep 07, 2010 21:57

So, as many of you may be aware of, two of the default Maxis face templates - 21 and 25 - are broken, as in they're not linked correctly to the other ages. They'll show up as face template 2 for any other age than adult (sometimes the elf template ( Read more... )

I'd like to see Hal Capp keep his child looks. I extracted him to use at LFT based on that look, only to be very surprised by his adult face.

Yeah, me too. I've never really played him as an adult, so his child looks is what I know him by. I imagine it'll be the same for most people.

What do you think about Gilbert and Co?

(Also, I kinda like Jasmine's "real" nose, it has character. :P)

Personally, I think I was pleased by the reports of Gilbert having "more interesting" genes, but if it's a broken template, then that's not so cool. That's more likely, right? Or was he also surgeried like Jasmine?

I like her genetic nose too, but her current nose still has character for me. It has an unusual bridge, which is likely due to the honkin' big nose she started with in CAS. She seemed more "template" when I extracted her, and I didn't really like it. Not to mention the fact that I was so used to her the other way. That's why I corrected her genes so I could finally extract the right face.

Gilbert was indeed surgeried, as was his mother. Gilbert's genetic looks are... interesting, but when I put them on him ingame, they creeped me out. Made him look... puppetish, somehow. Denise's genetic looks are quite cool, but in the end I thought it'd be better for both of them to just look like how people know them. The change would be too great.

Jasmine does have an interesting face either way. I let her keep her looks, too, and overwrote the genetic ones. Maybe this "alternative" looks could be used in something else, though. Bizarro universe legacy or something. ;)

I like the Bizarro World idea. It would make a fun little story.
