 A glitchy creation is like a crazy sim*. They may look fine when seen from a distance, and that too in daylight. Chopping up trees, minding their own business. But come night-time, and the shadows make it hard for you to see very well. You step closer, only to notice the jagged textures and the pixelated badness.  Before you know it, you're face to face with her. Only then do you realize it's a trap... axes and pretty girls are just not a normal combination. Oh well, at least she's a nuanced killer, so it shouldn't hurt much...  Confused? What we have here is an account of my feeble attempt at trying to create a Sims 2 skin, infused with some dark humor. This 'attempt' was made with combinations of Maxis textures and a photo**. I got the shading and position of the texture right for the most part, but it seems like I fudged the alpha up - not a surprise since it was the first time I worked on one anyway. Unless I keep trying and get better at this, I think I'm better off making simple object recolors - a single PNG compared to three large BMPs for a skin, each of which must coincide. Pfft. * no offence to crazy sims. ** credit to palmercash Labels: annoyance, non-download, picture story leave a comment? (

I moved house over the last week, and majorly over this weekend. Somehow, during the move or before, my hard drive crashed and I did not back up anything a. because I am lazy and b. backing up is a hassle. I do miss a lot of my old stuff, especially all the things that I had made and was yet to share with everyone. :([especially this 1x1 tiny apartment building that I worked really hard on and finished two nights before the boomcrashbang, and some rugs, and..things] Sighh... BUT on the plus side this is a new start. I do love how fast a PC runs when you erase all traces of the old junk that used to be on it once. What I do not love is missing all that junk and rebuilding it piece by little piece. x Labels: annoyance, i have a life outside the sims Monday, November 23, 2009
While I was making recolors for 8-3 studio's girl room set a month ago, I decided to make some for the Blythe doll box as well. Since I used to [used to being the operative word here] think these toys were pretty fucking awesome, I made some uglydoll boxes. After I was done, I remembered how nixy had made an enormous set of uglydolls in various positions. And it was brilliant.  So I went to nixy's site to find a link to that post, just so people could have the boxes and the dolls together in their game if they wanted. That is when I found out how the company responded to the meshes. I was excited about the whole uglydolls-coming-into-the-sims-2 business, but the company's reaction pretty much changes everything. Because I'm not sharing these anymore, this might be a useless rant to some, obsessive/pointless blogging to others. But it's my opinion, and share it I must. nixy I still think your dolls were awesome. Labels: annoyance |
