Prolific Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I dragged the picture in this time instead of linking, hopefully it shows... She looks mix raced to me 1 Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 She looks pretty neat actually. I could have a look, but I'm not sure she really needs much more than maybe a couple of skin details just looking at that picture. Pretty good for a base game townie. Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 It actually turned out to be alot quicker to do than I first thought, so I went ahead and reuploaded all sims and households, as well as the shared CC folder, with batch fixes applied to the CC items. 1 Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Linnie and Cara + Stojanovic Family More updated old sims. Linnie is one of my oldest sims, and also probably the one I have that I've made most freeform, though I've also changed her a lot over time, based on lots of different references. Cara is a more recent sim, who I decided to make into Linnie's sister when I noticed somewhat of a resemblance between the two of them, but didn't really want to throw her away or change her too much. They are of Selvadoradian descent on their mother's side, though they are not set as Selvadoradian natives I did set them up with level 4 in the Selvadoradian culture skill to represent a certain innate familiarity. Cara is the older of the two and, like some of my other sims such as Tracy and Alexis, works in the AEP pornography career, being a recognized hardcore actress. Cara Lopez is her performer name, while her real first name is Carmen. She's built up a number of friendships from her time in the industry and often goes clubbing with her co-performers in downtown Del Sol. She is a clubber and an exhibitionist who enjoys throwing down and showing off. Cara's younger sister Linnie is a bit of a troublemaker, she's a high school drop-out with a criminal record, who's been dabbling in both drug dealing and amateur pornography. Her hot-headed nature and low tolerance for bullshit has meant she's never really stayed in many jobs or relationships for too long a time, though at the moment she works as a mechanic in her dad's auto garage, something she is reasonably good at, although the two of them don't always get along splendidly to say the least. Her willingness to get up in people's faces when they piss her off has also proved problematic at times (both for her career prospects and her criminal record) and for someone who's not even 5' tall she can throw a mean punch, which catches some people off-guard. For the new version from January 2021, Linnie now has the restless custom trait by Kuttoe (link below), I've also set both girls (and their parents) up with native languages and language skills as I felt appropriate for the Language Barriers mod (which is fully optional). I've also made both Linnie and Cara somewhat younger as well as closer in age (reflected in their age in sim days as well), in addition to that is a number of skill and trait changes to both girls (mostly mentioned below). UPDATE 6/11/21: Another update! Primarily because I think I finally perfected Linnie's hair when I made a custom hair streaks accessory for her that I think turned out really well. Another change is that I made a cloned mesh of the hat she wears and made it bigger and slightly tilted and also used the hatslider by iconic (included in Shared CC) to tweak it further. I also further edited her tattoo set and made more changes to her warderobe. This might be it for tweaks for her, I don't think I'm going to make any more big changes here, but I can't guarantee it. She also has a job now noted above, this is due to a change in her characterization (though only slight changes, in the early days before I uploaded her I actually envisioned her as technically minded and she's always had some handiness skill as long as that's been a thing) and me building a house for the family that I'm really happy with (will share that later!) UPDATE 8/4/21: Alright! Disregard what I said above. There are some further changes and I needed to reupload because there was an issue with the modified hat Linnie was wearing. Spoiler LINNIE AND CARA + THEIR FAMILY HAVE BEEN UPDATED AND REUPLOADED Alright, I've updated these recently, but first of all I made some changes that I thought I may as well throw into a quick reupload that I was going to have to make anyway because it came up that I had made a mistake in the earlier archive and that I threw in an older version of the modified hat I had made for Linnie, so I would have to fix that. But that's not the only change. First of all some recent experience with creating customized hair accessories led me to the conclusion that I may as well make custom additional hair swatches for my sims that have ombre highlights or streaked hair rather than rely on accessories. So first of all Linnie now just has a custom hair color swatch which corresponds to her blond and dark brown-streaked hair color, with no need for an accessory, it's mostly the same but slightly different (it's slighly less blond than the old version). I also managed to put together something I had wanted for her for a long time, but had never managed to get to look good, which was an alternate updo/ponytail hairstyle for some outfits. So now she does have that with some of her outfits (mostly athletic and a couple of formal, party and hot weather outfits). Apart from that Linnie has not been changed any more as regards skills or traits. Cara however, in line with what I wrote above about wanting to do some name changes for my AEP pornstar sims, now is called "Cara Lopez" which is her performer name. Her real name is Carmen Stojanovic, which is noted in the household description (I'll also make a note of that in the description page here in this thread). I also added pubic hair nude detail to her, by way of cloning and changing the category of wild_guy's pubic hair skin detail (if you use WW pubic hair you may just want to remove this, it should be in one of the scar categories I think). Linnie Age: 22 Height: 4'11" Occupation: Automotive Apprentice Notes: Smoker, Restless custom trait, Clubber, Exhibitionist, Weed Dealing Skill, Selvadoradian Culture Skill, Irresponsible, Argumentative, Insensitive, Uncontrolled Emotions, Adulterer Lifestyles: Single and Loving it, Adrenaline Seeker Outfit Preview LinnieOutfits.7z Cara Lopez Real name : Carmen Stojanovic Age: 25 Height: 5'1" Occupation: Pornstar Notes: Smoker, Sugar Baby, Exhibitionist, Selvadoradian Culture Skill, Fame Level 1, Heat Acclimation, Gym Rat, Responsible, Mediator, Shallow Lifestyles: People Person, Energetic, Hungry for Love Outfit Preview CaraOutfits.7z Stojanovic Family Spoiler Back to when I only had Linnie and hadn't made Cara yet, I always imagined that they had a turbulent relationship with their parents and who I often imagined as not being present in their lives (this goes back to a very early game I played of Sims 4, back when I played, where I played an early version of Linnie in her teens when she was living in a trailer together with a younger, child age, sibling). This goes along with both of them being hot-headed and lazy, and while Miranda (their mother) is only Irresponsible (and unemployed) their father, Leon, is mean, argumentative, irresponsible and insensitive. He's lost his old criminal job, and is now a mechanic who owns an auto shop which includes some very cramped living quarters where he and Miranda live and the girls grew up. I imagine him as having criminal connections with the Alto crime family and probably. It'd probably still be appropriate to set everyone's relationship to be pretty poor with each other (especially between parents and children), though as will be seen in the house I've been making Miranda does have a certain devotion to family, at least in terms of interior decorating. NOTE: Stojanovic family archive no longer includes younger versions of Linnie and Cara (that might be coming sometime in the future), Leon and Miranda are here supposed to be contemporary with their daughters and hence a bit older. As of January 2021 (when I updated them, they have seen some minor changes) UPDATE 6/11/21: Going along with the changes above for Linnie, Leon has also seen some changes in terms of his characterization, having a new career now. Both him and Miranda have also had their appearance tweaked slightly. Leon Age: 46 Height: 5'8" Occupation: Mechanic Notes: Smoker, Argumentative, Irresponsible, Insensitive, Drug Dealing Skills, Selfish Lover, Adulterer Lifestyles: Sedentary, Junk Food Fiend Miranda Age: 44 Height: 5'1" Occupation: Unemployed Notes: Smoker, Irresponsible, Adulterer Lifestyles: Sedentary, Close-Knit, Hungry for Love Edited August 4, 2021 by mrrakkonn 15 Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 Getting this girl ready for upload next, because she was inquired about a couple of times in this thread, well actually I've got a quite big family to accompany her. Probably ready sometime tomorrow. Though actually I'm mostly posting this just to have an excuse to post this gif I grabbed from the nightclub orgy video on the first page it actually loops pretty well and it features this girl. 5 Link to comment

We're talking something like ~15 GB total here and it's in a state of disarray at that and includes lots of CC I've downloaded that's not really that good which I don't use and I don't really want to take the time to get it all sorted out. I would have cleaned it all up using Tray Importer long ago, but the problem is that I have lots of posepacks just thrown in there and I don't really have any good way of getting them into a new mod folder other than going through the entire disorganized mess. So instead what I do is that I keep a couple of mod folders around, the bloated one that has everything (for CAS and posing) and other folders that I put together with Tray Importer to play the game with better performance. Anyway, yeah, I'm not going to upload my entire mods folder. Though in a way I am doing that in a gradual manner with these uploads and I'm eventually going to upload an accompanying set up world with these sims as a save game as well which will basically just have everything uploaded as a requirement. When I get to that point I'll likely put together combined mods and tray archives to speed things up a bit and cut down on duplicated CC. Link to comment

Xenon93 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 So... we should delete any old packages or overwrite the downloaded before to add this right? Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 @Xenon93 You talking about any download in particular? If you're referring to updated versions of old sims/households you could delete the old stuff and anything that can be overwritten definitely should be. Tray files won't be overwritten though, so those will still be around unless you delete them, though those really are easier to delete from within the game using the gallery anyway. 1 Link to comment
Afro68 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I love your stuff and I know you use the height slider a ton. I know Turbo added this feature a while back but I never looked into it. Do you know if it works with your sims? I just use them without it but it'd be cool to know if you had any luck with the feature. EDIT: Nevermind, I found out which ones are supported ☹️ 1 Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 @Prince Planet Thank you! Turbo did, as you say, add a feature for a sort of support for some height sliders a while back yes. What it does is reset sims' height to default for the duration of a sex animation. So it's more of a work-around than straight up support. The one I use is specifically not supported by the WW functionality, I've tried some of the supported ones, but found that I prefer the one I have, which replaces the foot slider, and it allows me a great deal of precise control over the sims' height by using MCC to enter slider values rather than having to fiddle and guess around in CAS, which makes it easier to make height difference poses in blender, which I occasionally do. Probably not 100% correct about having more precise control with the one I use, since I guess I could use cheat commands to enter precise slider values for the others as well, but with many of those other ones I have seen the issue with offset arms and bent knees when I tested them out. So I'll stick to the one I use. I actually only really use the height slider for pictures or stories where I can either use my own poses when it becomes relevant or just use creative camera work to hide any misalignments that arise because of the height slider. In actual gameplay or when getting pictures or videos using WW animations I typically just play without the height slider in my mods folder, or more rarely when I feel like a bit of extra busywork, I manually reset the sims' height using MCC when they're in a sex animation.

I get it, I thought it was possible to use with all height sliders but it was an instance of me not reading everything in detail. I don't know if I'll touch it even with compatible sliders. Like, I'd love to use some of Redhead sims shoes but the ones that need a slider just throws things out of wack and I don't touch them. 1 Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 @Prince Planet Yeah, at the end of the day, height sliders are neat for pictures but they kind of cause too many issues with clipping and misalignment to be of much actual use outside of controlled poses and photography. Unless someone can put together something really clever (it would essentially requires somehow redoing how animations work in the game) I don't think they're ever going to move past this point.

mrrakkonn Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 (edited) Korrapati Family UPDATE 7/30/22: Priya removed from the main family (she is now part of a separate household, together with her mother who is Sarala's sister as well as some famous sims), and some updates to everyone, mostly to skintone and skin details. This family started out with two separate sims I made, Sati and Priya, by now Priya has been moved into her own thing and thoroughly made over while this family is more of a separate thing, however there is still a connecting thread as Sati and Priya are still cousins, but I've made a separate household for that which ties into things in a much more complicated manner. For the family itself, the idea is that they're largely wealthy and well educated, the grandfather Rajeev is supposed to be a retired doctor, and his daughter Sarala is herself married to a doctor, Ramachandra. Sarala, is kind of a bored housewife with some adulterous tendencies, their children Sati and Sanjiv are college students and Maia is a child.

frankstallone Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Jamila and Sati are the best ones you've made yet! Thanks for sharing your work, and helping to steer things away from the SPF 1000 whiteness of most custom sims galleries. Looking more at House Party, after playing it over a few days, I see Vickie is Tracy, Katherine is Casey, and Brittney might be Sarah? Am I missing any? I don't notice any other likenesses jumping right out at me. I'm almost tempted to change Casey to a hot headed, mean snob, if only sims actually had personalities.. 1 Link to comment

I don't notice any other likenesses jumping right out at me. I'm almost tempted to change Casey to a hot headed, mean snob, if only sims actually had personalities.. You're right about those, in addition to that Rachel is Megan, Ashley is Ashley and Madison is Amanda. Well, I've changed all of them up some, but you'll see it when you know it, even though some resemble their reference characters more than others (either due to me not quite hitting the mark back then or changing them up over time). There's a couple of different mods out there that make sim personality traits more important in how they dictate autonomy and whims. Another option is assigning sims some of the traits they can develop while they are children and teens (irresponsible, uncontrolled emotions, argumentative, etc) which seem to have a a pretty big effect on sims in my experience. I had kind of forgotten about those but remembered them again recently when I installed a mod which let's me add and remove any trait in the game by clicking on a sim and choosing the option. I might begin adding them to sims I upload in the future when it makes sense, and maybe go back and give Linnie the Argumentative trait, because that might make sense. As for Jamila, I'll probably upload a very slightly updated version of her and Selda (mostly just traits, career and skills I imagine) and some of the other more recent ones next. In the interest of continuing the work to consoldiate things in this thread and because they are pretty new it won't be alot of work to get them transferred over into this download and then deleting the old file. New sims and more substantial makeovers of old sims will still be added when I get to them (and I'm still working on them every time I think I have something to add) 2 Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 Went ahead and edited Linnie to give her the Argumentative trait as mentioned in the post above. Based on past experiences with those parenthood traits (yeah, you need Parenthood or else it won't show up, if you don't have that then you still shouldn't have any problems playing or putting her and Cara in your game, the trait just won't show up) it should help to make her a bit more troublesome, especially in conjunction with hot-headed. Reuploaded the archive with her and Cara towards that end, but as before with these small edits, here's just the updated tray files if anyone wants that. LinnieCaraTray.rar 3 Link to comment

I didn't know those traits were a thing because I avoid children like the plague. Good tip. I'll look into them. Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 5, 2019 Author Share Posted September 5, 2019 Jamila Tawfiq So here's reupload of a sim I uploaded back in July, before I set up this thread. I've updated her slightly for this, mostly just adding skills, some traits and setting her up in a career, in addition to stuff like me having switched to other eyes since then. I also switched to a recolor of her hijab in her first everyday outfit and a couple of others. I had a look at the new Muslim stuff that was added today but decided against using it for her, because I preferred what I arleady had for her, most in consideration was the modest athletic/swimwear outfit, but I decided against it, as I imagine it she's not really like super devout or modest, her hijab outfits in the everyday category are more of an identiy and fashion statement. She's of Tunisian desecent and she's a friend and coworker of Aminah Azim (in the second picture above and uploaded here earlier), working in the makeup artist career. Being self-absorbed and having the unique appearance trait she might do well to make it on simstagram as well or as a content creator (the video upload stuff in Sims 4 being a bit concentrated on making fashion and makeup tips videos). Her hair is from Island Living and if you don't have that she'll be bald, if you want an alternative here's a link to a hair I was using for her before I finished her and settled on the Island Living hair, https://aharris00britney.tumblr.com/post/167397300861/zoey-hair, it's not really that similar but I liked the way this hair looked as well, just not as much.

Diodonea Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Tremendous Tunisians! But doesn't the Yihab of the base game look better? I can't find Aminah Azim. 1 Link to comment

I can't find Aminah Azim. Well, personally I prefer this one over the new base game hijab, even though this one is kind of bendy and warpy at times. Anyone else is of course welcome to change it As for Aminah, she's not a part of this pack and was uploaded earlier together with her brother Tony, look for the archive "Tony and Aminah" in the download, that includes her. She's also not supposed to be Tunisian. 2 Link to comment
mrrakkonn Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) Selda Demirci UPDATE 8/27/21: Major update! It's been a while since I uploaded my updated version of Selda and she's seen some changes over time, though more major ones were recent such as her new hairstyle (with a custom color swatch, like I've started doing for many sims). I've also updated her description and generated parents for her. Another new thing is that I've also updated the room I made for her (just a room not a whole house, so put it where you find it appropriate) that you can see in the picture above, I've had it for a while and think it looks neat, so I figured I'd upload that as well. Selda is a young up-and-coming e-celebrity, primarily from streaming video games, to reflect that she's been levelled up in City Living's social media career, she's got a decent amount of followers as required for that career and she's a level 2 celebrity (previously level 1), though the modest fame she enjoys also has some negatives as she's gathered up some slightly obsessive fans over time. Her video game streamer career isn't the only reason she's a recognized face though, as both her parents are pretty famous themselves, with her father Can (pronounced somewhat similarly to "John" if you replace the "o" with an "a") being a popular rock musician, though his old band is no more, and her mother Lorelei meanwhile is a successful actress. Her parents' marriage didn't last long, but they remained on mostly good terms through her youth, for the most part she was raised by her father. In addition to her geeky video game side, she's also something of a raver, enjoying dancing, loud music and other things associated with that scene. This is reflected in her clubber trait and an outfit I saved to formal outfits for those occasions. I was considering giving her the rave organizer trait from Basemental Drugs but decided against it, I'd rather she have the muser trait from a creative aspiration still. Selda Demirci Age: 22 Height: 5'9" Occupation: Niche Broadcaster Notes: Mediator, Night Owl, Clubber, Movie Buff, Fame Level 2 Lifestyles: Techie Outfit Preview SeldasOutfits.7z Selda's Family As mentioned in the description above, Selda's parents are celebrities (4-star) themselves. Here I was somewhat restricted by being somewhat apprehensive about using the midnitetech custom careers I've been using, because they haven't been updated for a while, so I stuck with base game content there, making Can self-employed as a "Former Rockstar" and Lorelei a Season Thespian in the Get Famous Actor career, I originally got a suggestion to make her a live news reporter or an anchor and liked that, and will possibly update her to that later if I get a more recently updated custom career to reflect that. The parents are uploaded as a separate archive which also includes the tray files for Selda as their daughter, though not the CC for Selda herself so you'll require the archive with the CC for Selda herself for this household to work fully.

Speaking of sim personalities, I just found this mod might be exactly what I've been looking for to fix one small aspect of sim autonomy and personalities that's always bothered me. https://triplis.github.io/mods/love-and-hate.html You can set Loves and Hates for activities and social interactions, so your sim will gain a happy buff from doing things they love, straight up will not autonomously do things they hate and will get a negative buff if you manually do hated actions. I think they might also get mad if someone interacts with them from a category they hate. My main sim is not a dancer, but she's constantly dancing whenever there's music around. Now she hates dancing, no more dancing. I need to do some more testing to see exactly how it works. https://triplis.github.io/mods/romance-is-fun.html Another good one that boost the fun need when romantic/alluring sims use romance interactions. Minor, but thematically appropriate. 1 Link to comment
