4t2 LEXEL Packard Mustache

Kind of a simple 4t2 conversion of a mustache sans stubble because you can just layer that already in TS2. Original is here, and I do admit that the conversion doesn't quite sit the same, but I tried. Teen-elder, naturals in both my standard naturals and Afterglow (mine's on the left in the preview, afterglow is on the right). Both use the original textures.

Thanks to @paluding for the tattooer which I used after multilating the texture to sit on the TS4 face properly.

I opened up Sim requests… oh, about 3 years ago now! So, finally, I’ve fulfilled those requests. Better late than never, right? Consider this a comeback gift of sorts, as after a 5-year hiatus I’m back to playing and (hopefully) posting regularly, and Sims are the only thing I have to offer! The people who requested them probably don’t play TS2 anymore, and most definitely won’t remember making these requests, but I figure someone might have some use for them. :) 
From the top to the bottom: 


Elijah for @bluerubberbear, who requested a male artist/writer sim with dark messy hair and stubble.


Harold for @xwhitepolar, who requested an Asian male sim.


Penelope for @crystaldollhouse, who requested a female sim with colourful hair and a medium to deep skintone.


Selma for @vampireprincessmaria, who requested a sim “who is absolutely the best at everything a sim could possibly be good at” - I wasn’t quite sure what that entailed, so I just went with what I felt like making!

Lily for @knightcommanderalenko, who requested a female sim with red hair and brown eyes.

Giles for @magnetomic, who requested a male sim with odd facial hair - apparently I class a moustache as odd!

Aaron for @twofeetin, who requested a brown-skinned male sim with curly hair.


Some items of their clothing and hair may reflect your own defaults, but generally most of the stuff that matters (aka, eyes, makeup, skin details, etc) is custom and included. 

 
I’m sure no one remembers me after such a long time, but I have missed the TS2 community and am excited to get involved again!

“So tell me about what’s going on here.”

“I thought I’d try growing a beard!”

“That’s great. I hate it. You look like you’ve been on a week-long drunk.”

“A sexy drunk?”

“No.”

“If you hate it that much I can just go shave.”

“*sigh* No, no, I can see this is important to you.”

“You think I might look hot with a full beard, don’t you, Pup?”

“ . . . I’m considering the possibility.”

It occurred to me that as Drama majors, Johnny and Ripp would’ve likely taken at least one dance course. So here they are (about to collide into each other?).

That also got me wondering how their classmates must have reacted to them. They’re loud and boisterous, constantly engaged in some in-joke or squabble, and laughing like hyenas. I’d say they were more than a little annoying. Even Ophelia gave them a bit of a side eye from time to time.

REQUESTS ✍🏻

Closed, I got way too many!

[bunsblr]

Ok but like why can’t we layer stubble with other facial hairs (LIKE IN TS2) this makes no sense to me.

[pudding-on-parade]

I’ve been on a kick of making Sims for my game, just to keep on hand when needed as playables or immigrants or whatever. I’m by no means good at making Sims, but I’m better at it that I am in TS2 (which isn’t saying much! *laugh*), and I’m enjoying practicing. :) 

I started each of these with a random Sim spat out by CAS, keeping their general hair, eye, and skin color and the shape of their bodies, (aside from correcting some severe slider weirdness like...well, concave boobs on females *laugh* ) and then fiddled with them with face sliders and CC and all that. (The seventh one is a werewolf, so he gets funky yellow eyes using a different contact than the others.)

Doing this made me realize that I need to find some more hairs for black Sims. I only have the Maxis ones (and the one dreadlock style of those just doesn’t look good, IMO: it sits way too far back on the head) and one or two that I’ve downloaded, so for now it’s straightened hair for the black ladies and a lot of black guys with shaved/stubble hair. *eye roll* So, time to hair-hunt. :)

A buncha replies before we go and hit the slopes like an avalanche. :)

These’re for @plumbettie, @missy-hissy, @mortia, @moocha-muses, @demigirlandy, @simper-fi, @taylors-simblr, @blackswan-sims, @twofee, @sometownie, @ch4rmsing, @clericalrodent, @penig, and @mikexx2...

It is possible to default the in-lot Maxis sidewalk (I've done it once for my own game), you just need to replace the "Discrete Concrete" floor texture!

That makes sense, I suppose. I guess the issue is that it’s not going to match the neighborhood sidewalk that you can see off-lot, but if you don’t care about that, then that’s definitely an option. :)

missy-hissy replied to your photoset “Annnnnnd have a few random “scenery pics” from the restaurant’s test...”

So beautiful. My Sims 2 never looks like this. Gorgeous lots.

Thank you! Honestly? I think the key to making a really nice-looking environment is actually using neighborhood deco creatively. Instead of just plopping it down randomly in the open, neighborhood space, plop it carefully in the built areas and integrate it into the lots, merging it with the on-lot landscaping. Doing so makes things look more contiguous, more “open world.” I think the main “problem” with TS2 vs. the later games is that it feels more compartmentalized, each lot a separate entity. I think consciously doing things to defeat that feel just makes things look better to our human eyes. We live in an “open world,” after all, and it’s what we feel comfortable in, even if we’re viewing a “world” from the outside, so to speak.

On-lot objects with a high-res neighborhood view appearance helps with this as well, makes the lots look more connected to each other, instead of separate entities with definite boundaries between them. And, well, high-res stuff in general helps....although the game isn’t really meant to handle such things and forcing it to do things it wasn’t designed to do can quickly eat all your computer resources, too, which is not necessarily a good thing! The sacrifices we make.... *laugh*

mortia replied to your photoset “Annnnnnd have a few random “scenery pics” from the restaurant’s test...”

so pretty, this looks like a lot of fun :)

It’s a fun neighborhood. Or it will be, once I get everything settled. For this lot, I kinda just wanted it to have an arched bridge over water and everything else was just built around that.

moocha-muses replied to your photoset “Just some pics of queer hood (mostly) townies while they were being...”

I've always wanted someone to name a nightclub after me.

EVERYONE ought to have a nightclub named after them! :) Really, it’s just what I called it in my head. Like, “Gotta go into Moocha’s lot and add the pink statuary” (which I have yet to do, still!) or “Gotta go into Moocha’s lot and check out restaurant possibilities.” So, it just kinda became “Moocha’s” in my brain and...so it was.

demigirlandy replied to your post “So, a question.”

you could use the facial hair mod in addition to changing "treat as" to male in simpe and nothing else, they'd retain appearance but use male pronouns and one of the male voices

Yeah, I think that’s what’ll eventually happen, possibly. I don’t want him to have a male voice yet. Should be become a playable, then I’ll slowly transition him, but for now...just some scruffy, patchy “I don’t quite have the hormone levels for this yet” face-fuzz. :)

simper-fi replied to your photoset “The queer hood rogues’ gallery townies. :) There’s a list of names and...”

Faye looks amazing! I’m so excited for this hood :D

I am, too! :D She’s a cute Sim and she’s got quite a few connections, romantic and otherwise, amongst the other townies, since she was one of the first that I plopped onto the lot where they all got “moved-in” and adjusted and all that, so she had lots of time to mingle while I got the rest of the bunch settled. So...We’ll see what happens with her!

taylors-simblr replied to your photoset “The queer hood rogues’ gallery townies. :) There’s a list of names and...”

I almost didn’t recognise Jay, he looks great with glasses :D I also agree that Ramona is super cute

Jay rolled up a “Become a Rock God” LTW, so I kind of dressed him up to suit that ambition, with the studded shirt and the long-ish hair. But with all my Sims I roll to decide whether or not they’ll wear glasses, and he ended up with glasses. So, he’s got a kinda “nerdy rock god” vibe to him. *laugh* And Ramona...Yeah, she’s just adorable.

blackswan-sims replied to your photoset “The queer hood rogues’ gallery townies. :) There’s a list of names and...”

Julian looks great with the addition of a five o' clock shadow! I can definitely see why you call him the neighborhood hottie. :D He looks like he'll fit in nicely!

All your Sims are pretty hot, so it’s not surprising. ;) But yeah, IRL I likes me some five o’ clock (or five o’ clock the next day) shadow on my menfolk, so all the boys in my game tend to get at least the minimum amount of stubble. To my eyes, the completely clean-shaven look in-game just makes them all look like they’re about 15. *laugh* Either that or they went a bit too crazy with the electrolysis. :)

twofee replied to your photoset “The queer hood rogues’ gallery townies. :) There’s a list of names and...”

ahh you bespectacled kelian and victory! they look cute as little nerdfaces :) i think it would be funny if you let flo and tanner keep their unrelated but same last names and then those two ended up organically together in the hood.

Yep, Kelian and Victory both rolled to have glasses, and yeah I think it suits them both. Kelian actually reminds me a lot of Ed Quinn, only with poofier hair and not quite as buff. He’s got a similar face shape with the smaller eyes on a broader face, plus the dark hair/light eyes combination that makes me melty. :) I mean, I was tempted to stretch-skeleton him to make him really tall, to continue the resemblance...but that screws up animations so I decided not to. Anyway, I’ve seen Ed Quinn in roles where we wore glasses, and he looked good in them, so...yeah. :) And Victory...Well, it’s not like she needed more color, but I thought neon-glasses would go with her whole look. :)

sometownie replied to your photoset “The queer hood rogues’ gallery townies. :) There’s a list of names and...”

Looks great!! And I love the surname you gave Mimosa! :D

I’m glad you like the surname! I thought it sounded good when the name generator spit it out! :)

ch4rmsing replied to your post “The Queer Hood. Getting to Know You, Part 1.”

I ship it.

So do I! And so does @summer-choi-simblr, so we’re all good, I guess! :)

clericalrodent replied to your post “The Queer Hood. Getting to Know You, Part 3.”

Oh dear, Georgia, you are the worst. I swear she wasn't this bad in my game

I think the problem is that she’s randomized with a really low jealousy threshold and she was getting attached to Sims who were Romance, either as a primary or a secondary aspiration. Bad choices, Georgia! But she’s hilarious. I love her. <3

penig replied to your post “The Queer Hood. Getting to Know You, Part 2.”

Also, Natasha's abuelo is The Grouchiest Man in Drama Acres, so she has a family tradition.

Well, she’s pretty grouchy, herself, as I recall, so there’s that, too! :) Maybe it’s a good thing she lives alone. Well, her and her dog, anyway. :)

mikexx2 replied to your post “The Queer Hood. Getting to Know You, Part 2.”

Oh dang, so Syd’s the hood creep so far? ��

Ah, not really. Natasha randomized as 17 (all of the Sims in this neighborhood, even the townies, have actual number ages assigned to them), so it’s not like she’s 13. Syd randomized as...Well, still too old for her, in the legal sense, at 25, but...Eh, harmless flirting of the “Charm” type, which actually started before I got around to aging Natasha down to a teen (since I initially created her as an adult, so I didn’t have to make an adult to get her out of CAS with) so...Yeah. Anyway, not a big deal.

TS2 Baby Hair - Custom baby hair: Stubble and bald

Made By Theraven

Read here how to use custom hair.

The stubble hairs are binned and familied in all of Pooklet's natural colors, and in EAxis colors. The bald hairs comes binned in the 4 colors. Al of them use the "bald" mesh (it's included in both archive files). The V1 EAxis hair also comes with an optional pink bow for girls.

Download Link.

[asimplevampire]

To Do:

Get hair files sorted out. I just got like 70 per gender, all from Almighty Hat, and they need to be renamed and checked out individually. 

If you’re playing TS2, Almighty Hat is fucking fantastic for simple, low-poly hairs, regardless of whether or not you’re playing a medieval game. They haven’t posted on their Dreamwidth for like a year but I’m so grateful for all the work they did.

Also I might want to find more unnaturally coloured hair. 

Download more makeup/eyebrows/face details/accessories. Especially Tamo’s glasses, @pooklet​‘s sclera, nosemasks, eyebrows, stubble/beards if I can find them.... 

Re-clean/empty out hoods. Thank gods for the clean (nb: not empty) AL template I found, because I could not live without the Newsons in my game. 

Figure out graphics settings so the water, sky, + etc. look Less Like Garbage (TM).  

Set up test hood, uberhood, Hungry Hollow redux. 

Get gameplay pics over to gaming computer, queue more Victor + Clarence hijinks for your enjoyment. 

 Recolour a hair for Clarence, so I’m not stuck using the one BG hair that comes in blue. I’m thinking at this point maybe the All-Ages Caesar, Aquilegia’s Scholar’s Tail, or Nouk’s Sport It Short. 

Start finding/making CC for Fallen London ‘hood.

Start making over the uberhood/Maxis premades. 

Make over Clarence/Victor/the Auxlings. Possibly age up the Auxlings because NO. TWIN TODDLERS. NO.
