I've been playing around with recolours of my edited texture for the TSS jeans and tee mesh, and I now have a collection of them to share with you. I'll probably revisit this later to make white and some other colours, but I'm going to share what I've done so far.

My Christmas gift to you all...

*snort* Those pics are cracking me UP.

WOOT!

I think my wife's self sim will get a makeover now. He's not really a jeans guy, but the shirt is so him.

These pics were a lot of fun, and I caught some good moments. (How cute is shy dancing Nervous?) The slap dance in the teaser pic is my favourite. It was very amusing to watch them do a choreographed dance routine together.

Awesome. It would be so much better if I could get this mesh as a liberated top, to pair with any bottoms, but this is as good as it gets for now. I'm going to do some more neutral recolours later, and whatnot.

(I had to edit that... what the heck is a mesg?)

Hee hee... they're putting the song "Hanging Tough" by NKOTB in my mind. O_O

Those are some great pictures! You must have had a lot of fun with the dance party required to get them. The outfits look great too. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks. :) I'm glad you like them.

It was a blast to shoot these pics, even when I was struggling with moveobjects. They're just too funny.

What a wonderful Cristmas gift!
You picked some very nice colours, and I like how the personality of your characters keeps shining through everywhere :) Like cheerful Beau in his pink shirts, and shy Nervous in black and grey.

As a top-only this would indeed be lovely, shirts for men are very much needed. But this'll do great for now. Thanks :D

Best preview pics ever. They seriously brought a tear to my eye.

Yay! Boy clothes! Scratch that... "normal" boy clothes!

What a lovely Christmas gift. Thank you very much :).

The pictures are adorable, especially the first one. It's as if they were all dancing in sync ^^ (perhaps they were). Love the random quirks here and there, like Ripp petting the kitty :P.

Thank you. The tees are wonderful and the pics are adorable :D Nervous' face in last pic - awwwww! And the kitty-snuggling face never looked so dirty as it does now. Where exactly is Ripp's thumb? *is gross*

These are wonderful; thank you! (And a very happy holiday to you as well. :D )

The preview pics are excellent. I love Ripp's poses, especially. He's so silly and outgoing.

These are too awesome for words! Normal, regular, "average Joe" kind of clothes for guys! Whee!!!

LMAO! Looks like Ripp pulled a random kitty out of his ass. I love that one of the colors is named "Stella Purple". And Frances is wearing purple too. That color definitely looks good on the boy. :P

These are great, thanks!

He probably did. You don't know what Ripp is into. :P

...They look like a boyband. Doing a dance routine.

Nice shirts! I may have to get some of these, there's not enough plain clothes in the game. (Not all, though, 'cause I'm simply too lazy to scroll past that many recolours. You know what TS3 needs? Recolours of clothes working the same way recolours of objects does, so one mesh only shows up once in the main menu. That'd be the best.)

Awesome recolors! Will they work if I don't have Teen Style Stuff? Because Tanathir want.

Date: 2008-12-20 11:22 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com
Yes, they will work because they're made using a teen to adult conversion, which uses a totally different mesh. (I r annoying knowitall. :P)

Really? Someone else mentioned that with the first one. They show up fine for me. What could be wrong? You have the mesh, right?

Date: 2008-12-21 01:34 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] smjoshsims.livejournal.com
Yeah. I have everything, they don';t show up in Bodyshop, in game, or CAS. :(

Okay, I deleted them from my game and downloaded my files, and it still worked fine for me. Are there any problems that can occur when creating clothes in Body Shop that I'm not aware of? Does it matter which Body Shop you use? (I think you have AL anyway, right?)

I'd like to know if anyone else has actually gotten them to show up. That way, I'd know if it was an issue with my files, or something else. I hate the thought of having people download something that doesn't work. :( I was so excited to finally offer a download.

I haven't gotten them to show up either. :(

I figured it out. It's this (from the tutorial at MTS2):

Make sure you do NOT distribute the file from My Documents \ EA Games \ The Sims 2 \ Projects \ MyProjectName - there will be a MyProjectName.package file located in your Projects folder, but this is an unfinished file. It will not work in anyone's game. Make sure you only distribute the file from SavedSims as described above.

Now I just feel stupid, because that's exactly what I did.

Anyway, I fixed it, and now the link will take you to the right files. Sorry about that!

I screwed it all up. I did this (from the MTS2 tutorial):

*is embarrassed* Pretty dumb, huh?

THANK YOU, STANGE_TOMATO. YOU ARE SO AWESOME.

Hurray for normal clothes and early Christmas presents!

The preview pic totally made me think we were about to get the musical episode of SHWC. I WAS SO EXCITED.

Also, I love your recolors! I love the purple on Johnny in the first one and Tank's green too. And then I love that you put Franny in purple for the other two, because it makes me think of Xel's purple Franny.
