mrrakkon's Sims (and stuff)

[mrrakkonn]

Alright, Linnie and Cara Stojanovic (and their parents) have been UPDATED AGAIN. 

 

This comes from me making some further changes to Linnie, possibly final (excepting further tweaking). Primarily, I think I finally perfected Linnie's hair (which has been bothering me for a while, because it always kind of looked bad and blocky even though it was the look I wanted for her) 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!)

 

   

 

Going along with the changes above for Linnie, Leon has also seen some changes in terms of his characterization, 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. Both him and Miranda have also had their appearance tweaked slightly.

Stojanovic Family House / "Leon's Auto Repairs"

 

   

 

I mentioned, and I'm sure some of you saw the pictures I've been posting of this over in R-Lo's photography thread a month or so back, that I was working on this lot and it was part of the reason for some of the changes I made to Linnie and Leon's characterizations. Anyway I'm really happy with how this one turned out and am happy to share it with you. 

 

    

 

Anyway the original version of this was made by fumancucachu on the gallery and is originally made for Strangerville. The exteriors have mostly been left unaltered but I've adapted it to fit better into Oasis Springs (as I've built it up) which si where I've inteded for this to be placed, otherwise the major changes are to the interior space, excepting the workshop and office. The original had a living space in it, but I've edited it to barely fit a family of four.

 

    

 

   

 

   

 

   

 

As it's primarily styled it's working on the assumption that Linnie and Cara have moved out, so their rooms are now used for a second office and random storage space, but I included an alternate version of the lot as well with Cara and Linnie's teenage rooms and a flimsy room divider solution for Leon and Miranda's bed upstairs. 

 

   

 

    

 

The big feature here and what I had the most fun making is to be found in the living room, where I was chatting with @TriggerBlade who suggested that I make an ofrenda table, using the sugar skull display case, with pictures of dead relatives as well as putting in pictures of other relatives. This involved generating a bunch of extended family members, taking and editing pictures and incorporating them in CC painting objects I put together specifically for this.

Don't you mean Leon's chop shop?  ?

Samantha McPherson has been updated and reuploaded. 
Samantha herself is mostly unchanged (I left all the old pictures and the old extensive outfit lookbook because there aren't really any changes) except for having a different skintone than she used to, she also has the close-knit lifestyle now and the compassionate trait from Parenthood. Bigger change here is the addition of a family of sims (mostly) generated off her that I've put up as a separate archive. More details on the family in the linked post.

That's easy to see, isn't it? To make it simple, I guess you could say alot of them are on the bigger side. 

[Mesuttt34]

i think its Veronica Guajardo or Leyla Dabiri , i ask'd because when i put it them in my game  they dosent apper like your picture's or outfit pictures. They looks awesome on your pictures if you didnt do any photoshop on it

That could be down to you using some different meshes or slider extensions than I use. I have a simple one which somewhat extends the range of the breast size slider, helio's heavy boobs, it's in the shared CC archive. If you have a different one or don't use that one sims will look a little different.

I'm getting back into playing Sims 4 and I'm amazed at all the progress and unique characters you have created. My mind is racing with ideas. Do you have all the various Game/Expansion packs? I'm lacking a few of them, and I'm wondering how important they are to game play. I will probably be buying DU soon, but I'm on the fence about Snowy Escape due to the Lifestyles feature. I'm not interested in Magic or Batuu. How important are these packs to your creations and to LL/WW style game play? I know I can just replace missing outfits, but I really want to have some emergent gameplay, and experience any synergies that exist with the packs and mods.

 

Sorry to highjack, but of all people that would know, I bet it's you. Thanks for your meticulous creations.

I've got most of the packs, so stuff from them (mostly laundry day, get famous and get together I think) will show up in my creations every now and then. I honestly can't say much on the actual merits of gameplay features to be honest. I can say that I don't have either the magic or Star Wars pack and don't plan to get them. Discover University and Snowy Escape have some decent CAS and build items that I've used, especially the former, and I like the worlds added by both of those. 

 

That's probably the most I can offer on those.

Thought I'd give my 2 cents on this: unless something has changed in the last few months that I've taken a break from the Sims 4, the only WW gameplay you'd be missing from not having DU is Servo fun. Nothing comes to mind regarding SE. Lifestyles that involve woohoo (Adrenaline Seeker, Hungry for Love) don't seem to be affected by WW sex at all (unless WW was updated to support that in the last few months, so my info might be outdated).

As for whether they're worth getting anyway, that's entirely subjective and I don't think I can answer that without ranting about the problems of Sims 4 and how I only ever go back to it because of the stellar work of modders.

Thank you both!

I'm neither planning nor very interested in making mermaids, no. It's not really something that's for me by and large.

No, they're not there yet. I don't really have a definite house hor the family, though back when I played them in a game (long back) I had them living in Willow Creek, I think in the mid-range neighborhood.

Hayley Lombardi

 

Hey! So this one is gonna be a little bit light on characterization, I've been working on this sim and it seems that people really like this one so I figured I'd fast-track her to upload, so expect some roughish edges when it comes to some of the outfits and the overall charactterization. Hope that's alright. 

 

Anyway Hayley is 18 years old and she's into music, though very selective as reflected in her likes/dislikes (it's basically like metal and dislike everything else), beyond just listening to and going to concerts she's also got some skill points in both guitar and singing, whether she actually ends up pursuing that in some way or another is still a bit up in the air (and as mentioned above, characterization I have for her is on the light side). 

 

Beyond the above she's got something of an abrasive pesronality, emotional and argumentative, quick to anger and can get jealous or possessive in her relationships. 

 

Age: 18

Height: 5'3"

Occupation: Unemployed

Notes: Argumentative, Uncontrolled Emotions, Unique Appearance

Yeah, definitely looks like she'll fit in fine there! Nice looking group of sims you have there

[LittleRedSonja]

Very nice sims. I just love that you organize the compressed files into subfolders (separated tray files, clothes, skin details...). It really makes a difference and helps a lot. I understand it requires extra effort on your side, so i just wanted to thank you for that.
