mrrakkon's Sims (and stuff)

[mrrakkonn]

Just figured that even though I am pretty determined to keep at updating existing sims for a while (next is probably gonna be Thalia, Tracy, Alexis and other associated sims by way of AEP and such), I figured there might be some interest to just see a little selection of the various WIP sims I have. You've probably seen a lot of these in pics, even going far back, it's just that I haven't actually sat down and finished them, it's just kind of how I work, I can finish a sim pretty quickly at times, other times I'll let them stew for a long while occasionally coming back and making edits and additions until I finish (often when I've settled on a name, concept and warderobe.

 

Here's a bunch of "original" sims, male and female in various stages of (in)completion. Maybe I should make a poll or something to find out if there's any specific ones of these that people are interested in seeing completed. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Additionally there's some more sims based on Urbz that I have in the works, also in varying degrees of completion, probably possible to complete quickly once I get in the "Urbz mood" again, also for uploading these I want to have complete or close to complete crews for most of these rather than doing it individually.

They all look awesome…any life added by you is welcome! Especially the males.

[GreyMouse]

I'd be looking forward to seeing you finish that first one. I don't care for the boots but thats just my personal preference. Take your time though, buddy, you always do great work.

[LittleRedSonja]

Numbers 1, 14 and 22 are probably my favorites in that group but i am sure all of them will end up being great

[WorkerBee85]

1,7,9,14.15, are amazing! And a poll is an amazing idea!

[Norseman]

6, 7, 9, 11 and 15 are my faves.

[Azunyan95]

Your sims is awesome! Keep up the good work! This is my favourite sims for this game!

[mrrakkonn]

Seems like we've kind of got a poll of sorts going as far as I can tell. So yeah, I think I'll do it so that I'll see about fast-tracking some of the sims that people show the most interest in seeing done. 

 

Probably limit the "voting" to this page.

Honestly all of these sims look awesome, so whatever you are going to finish, it's gonna be special!

 

If I had to pick some, I would say surely 2 (she is a friend of Jozie from the pictures you put?), plus 5 (I remember this guy appearing often in your images/videos), 7, 9 and 11

 

From your Urbz sims, the 21 is also magnificent.

 

Thanks anyway for your work, you are really doing great!

Yeah, she's actually the most recent creation in that post, and I kind of figured she and Jozie make sense as friends. Haven't settled on a name yet.

It's a little bit of both, you'd have to specify. 


Anyway, in general I hope people don't mind my current trend of mostly focusing on uploading updated versions of older sims rather than finishing up new ones. Also that my current pace is perhaps a bit slower than it's been in the past, it just so happens that I'm left a bit more busy now than was the case before.

So the two that I noticed outright were both blonde female sims, one at 0:58 which is wearing a pink dress with a tattoo on the left arm, and the other is at 1:59 in a magenta-like dress with a sleeve tattoo on the right arm. I'm fairly confident they're not the same sim, and they don't seem to be on the photo array.

 

And for what it's worth, you take your time doing as you do. Its your sims and you work on them as you see fit. Personally, my thought would be to continue updating older sims and drop new ones when you want to.

 

Edit: Another sim is the blonde that is on the right of the group photo on the updated Selda post. May be the same blonde as the first one I mentioned.

Added another example

[Kashked]

I'll add my 0.10$... I'm interested in the blonde girl with the glasses at the top, as well as any and all male sims. The male ones don't need to be quite as fleshed out, I'm fine with that, I just need some decent men in my world so all your female sims have someone to date...

She is my pick as well... To me she looks like a Cassandra or maybe Esmerelda.  Seems like a gothic name...

Hi there. Love your creations!

 

After not playing for months, I am having an issue with getting your content to show up in my game. All your clothes I used seem to be missing, and the skins appear as all pitch-black. 

 

I took all my cc and mods out, repaired my game, then added just your 'world' content, shared cc folders, and game save, but with the same results. I just wondered if this is something you've seen before. Been searching for answers but nothing I've found has worked. 

 

Thanks,

hotyb

Did you download the individual sims as well?

I thought we didn't have to download all of them?

If you want everything to go smoothly I would recommend you DL everything. for the save to work. 

I also re-did my mods folder just with his shared mods,saves and tray folders and I downloaded everything, my game has no issues.

I've downloaded darn near all of it. Still somehow missing a lot of hair and clothes. What's weird is it's even on mrrakkon sims that I had in my game fully functioning a long time ago. I came back and went through updating cc, and now they don't work. 

 

One thing that did seem to help with the skin issue is that I cleared my avatarcache and localthumbcache file. I wish something like that would work for the hair and clothes, but I can just go in and manually re-set those.

Seems to me like you are missing some of the CC . won't hurt to download a file from one the sims that is missing something and check in the game to see if that fixes anything.

I for sure have at least some of the cc that's missing. But it looks like all the body parts in my save that was cc is all set to blank or nude. Maybe by starting and saving with no cc it lost all the links.

did you figure it out?  I did noticed on some of my sims that their skin were pitch black due to obscurus nose presets not working properly.  in cas change the nose and see if that's your issue.

 

Edit

So for my case I did the 50/50 method on my custom presets cause I have a shit load of them and I came across this little sob " BodyPresetsMERGED " and it was causing all the issues for me. So if you have that get rid of it.

I don't have that one, no. I was able to fix my pitch-black issue by deleting cache. But I can't get any previously-set cc hair or clothes to show up on my old Sims, even though I know I have those cc in Mods. I even removed all of my cc except for all my mrrakkons stuff. So it seems like the link between the content and those sims is broken. Like because I saved it without anything now it's all set to bald/nude options. Thanks for the reply though!

Alot of posts here! Seems you've all got it covered though, I've sort of been away for the past week, and I might just end up taking the month off (and pausing my patreon) because of that. I've got soem other things I have to prioritize right now. And before anyone asks, I'm fine, don't worry

Dude, take what time you need.  No worries.  Taking breaks leads to greater ideas and better results.  I hope you are well.
