Creator Mistakes that Piss Me Off

Vent time. You know what creators do that I fucking hate? Jennisims is a huge offender of this...

 

When they make a CAS item, put it in a category, BUT PUT THE TEXTURE IN THE WRONG AREA. Okay, if I have some headphones in the RINGS category, then why does it use texture in the HATS area? If there is a sleeping cap in the HATS category, why does it use the NECKLACE texture area?! It's different if someone makes a much different item, like an accessory skirt, puts it in rings, and says it'll use the hat texture, but make a second version that uses an extra texture space so that we can choose, but god dammit, Toskami, if you have animal ears in the hat category, WHY IS THE TEXTURE IN THE EARRINGS SPACE?! Or there is a HAT in the HAT category.... and it conflicts with GLASSES!!

 

You know what else I hate? When people don't test their stuff in game before they release it. Hey, [insert name here], nice flower crown. There's just an itty bitty problem... it moves up and down when the sim open and closes their mouth. How the hell did you not notice that? How the hell could you not see that you had weights assigned to groups other than HEAD?

 

Another thing is when people don't bother to make LODs 1-3. News flash: ya kinda need those! Without them, the item you made will revert to the item you cloned when you zoom out! LOD means Level of Detail! It's even worse when people fill LODs 1-3 with the same mesh in LOD0 so that it remains high poly when you zoom out, which can slow down your game. Decimate, people! DECIMATE!!

 

Oh man, and when creators make a hat item that's not supposed to have a hat cut, like a tiny top hat, and yet it cuts the hair anyway? No. TEST YOUR STUFF. How did you not see that it was doing that? Or when a specular covers an entire head when it's, one, supposed to be on the hair, and two, not supposed to be that shiny! Or if you don't change the normals from the item you cloned, or you didn't change the shadow, or if you somehow left the sim body mesh on STOCKINGS OR GLOVES? There was someone on this site that made anal beads in the tights category, but left the female body mesh on it, so not only was it high poly, but if you applied it to males, the female body would stick through. I told them about this problem, and they were like, "no it doesn't." I'm like, uh, yeah huh. Since they were too proud or whatever to fix it, I went into Blender, deleted the female body, changed the mesh in the package, and voila. Now there is just the anal beads and no unnecessary body. If there wasn't a body there, creator, then how was I able to delete it and drastically reduce the poly count? The beads were also coming out of the vagina, not the ass, so I had to move it too. If someone says something is wrong with your mesh, CHECK IT AND FIX IT. You're not perfect! You can't just make something and release it without testing it in game! No one is that good! There will ALWAYS be an issue!

 

A smaller thing I hate is when people don't make a thumbnail for the opposite sex. Hairs are the worst. If I'm trying to match your colors, I don't want to play the guessing game. Also for accessories! Or if they don't make a thumbnail at all, so you have an earring on the right ear, but you can't see what it is in the thumb because it defaults to the left ear. And don't get me started on the other piercings. I've been going through ALL of my CC just to make life easier on me. And if you make a bracelet for the right wrist, put it in the right wrist category, not the left!

 

TL;DR: I shouldn't hafta fix yer shit!

 

~:::UPDATE:::~

 

Proofread the post. I don't understand how I managed to spell "beads" as "beans" each time. The D and the N aren't even next to each other. I read it and was like, "really, me? REALLY? You're better than that." Anal beans... sounds like some kind of terrible disease of the ass or something...

NOT COLOR TAGGING YOUR GODDAMN CC PISSES ME OFF
If I even might release something I'mma properly color tag it. Why the fuck do I have to deal with people having shit tagged for black when it's white or whatever!?

It takes like 2 minutes if you have a fuckload of swatches.
ANNOYING. Color tag your shit. Every time I search for a white dress so my sim can get married and I click "Color: White" and see a purple dress I wanna yell.

or when people don't mark "masculine" or "feminine," so we don't see it unless you clear gender filters.
