TSM conversions make me both excited and frustrated. I mean, on the one hand, MORE GOODIES is always better, but on the other hand I've gotten so frustratingly picky. The picture in my head for what I want in my 'hood is High Middle Ages French fashion, and it's way easier to find good clothing meshes than things like hats. And the TSM hats tend to be... usually too small, and always with the modern concession of having hair showing. (Although just judging from the pics in this thread, though, Sims Medieval has a lot of really neat crowns. And sleeves. I haven't seen bag sleeves that nice anywhere for Sims 2.) However, I am always in favor of accessory hats. Because I can do an obscene number of recolors without throwing the count off in my hair bin.
Hokay so RenGal! Grabbed meshes again, installed, started Body Shop, and then peered at my screen. I KNOW I replaced everything properly yesterday, but as you can see things were still messed up. I only put the meshes in one folder, so I didn't have to chase down six copies of them. Everything works fine now. Meshes look great.
My brain is broken, but the meshes look great. *facepalms* WHAT DID I DO COMPUTERS ARE HARD.
Today I get to leave my house, which is awesome, but I also need to fix my nail polish so while that's drying I'm going to do the repository work on the CF Rengals and that? That will be all the texture files for the front-laced kirtles DONE omg. I can get to that hair I've been meaning to Pooklet since Aquilegia did an all-ages both-sexes reasonably-grouped version. And maybe I can get to the beards. Because OH MAN I really want to full-Pooklet all the meshed beards.
Honestly, it's exciting to be able to do this-- to make a set of recolors for Maxis AF and be able to repository-link them to not only TF and CF, but to RenGal, Athletic Girl, and Androgyny, to get 996 recolors in the space of about 84... I'm spinning around and going 'eeeeeeeee' pretty much.
EDIT AGAIN: Okay so YAEF, TF, CF, and RGv2 YAEF, TF, and CF are now totally flawlessly perfectly complete. (And ALL the texture files are made and double-checked for issues like texture-referencing the wrong texture or missing a # or an E.) Want me to PM you with a sneak preview once I get things properly swatched and credited and uploaded? Cos I've got some mostly-finished stuff I'm going to try to get uploaded tonight so I'm not flinging EVERYTHING online right before I try to post it.
