one thing i don’t miss about retexturing hairs is the super old ones with the mapping. XMS hairs were some of the worst, imo.

Yeah, those were a huge pain. I gave some older hairs a shot (one by Peggy, some by XMSims) and eventually gave up. Horrible mapping, textures that needed a lot of warping and blending, and random shadows on the mesh. Not fun.

This is so demanding and rude 😦

My feelings exactly. Just… wow.

I think it’s from the same person, because it’s weird to ask recolor for very old hairs and all by the same creator.

That’s what I think, too. Plus, each message had pretty much the same phrasing.

This sort of thing seems to be happening to a lot of creators. It’s pretty rude if you ask me.

There seems to be a rash of this going around… I’ve gotten a similar thing. Twice.

I’ve seen other simmers receive messages like these, but I didn’t think it was that common. It feels rude and kind of entitled 😦 One request or two, that’s reasonable, but who just assumes we’re just gonna spend all of our free time answering their tens of demands?

1) 

Tell me the story of how you started playing.

Back in the winter of 2002 my dad got TS1 + the Vacation EP from a family friend. I was immediately hooked and played for about 1 year and a half, maybe two… but eventually got frustrated by the fact that my sims never aged up! I thought I just had to play a household for long enough, but when I reached 200 in-game days and nothing happened, I uninstalled the game 😛

The TS2 came out, and it seemed perfect! Sims’ faces can be modified, instead of having to use presets! More than 4 camera angles! Wants and fears! Limited lifespans, so time actually matters!

Really makes me think about how big a leap TS2 was from TS1, gameplay-wise. Didn’t really feel the same for TS3 or 4.

10) Do you play with challenges? If so, which is your favourite?

I play my households by legacy-like rules, but they’re not super strict and I end up creating sim-specific challenges, like the fortune sim I mentioned earlier, selling robots in her run-down garage ‘till she got super rich, or my romance sim who wanted to reach level 10 on the Artist career track, so I made him only gain creativity points by painting pictures of his lovers.
