an extremely detailed guide to making deco sims (sims 4).
this is years late but i finally sat down and wrote a long and detailed tutorial on how to make a deco sim. it has gifs this time and when i have the patience, i'll make a video (since everyone learns differently!). i'll try to clear up the grammar in this tutorial (not promising anything) but this tutorial is SOMEWHAT coherent and that's all anyone could ask for.
link to guide is here - google doc
my method isn't the only method. do what's easiest for you. if you find a faster/better way, go with it, and share it with others.
do not freak out over not understanding a complicated thing the first time. when you learn anything new, YOU WILL FAIL a few times before you eventually get it. that is part of the learning process.
if you've never opened blender before or lack any type of patience when learning anything new, i would not jump into this tutorial. this isn't me saying you can't do this, but try an easier tutorial if you're able to and level up to this one. rome wasn't built in a day.
i loathe giving business class simblr another avenue for revenue but i do want people in this community to learn something new (and stop using my deco sims in paid builds). If you are going to be the weirdo that makes people pay for deco sims (and i know $$$$$imblr will), either use your own cc/poses, ask permission from creators, or just use in-game content. please don't put other people's FREE CC behind your paywall. i know this falls on deaf ears because some people can be legit jerks, but i tried!
i know some will gloss over the decimation / LOD part of this tutorial, i recommend anyone downloading decos CHECK THE POLY COUNT. if you have a potato of a computer, use them sparingly.
if you found this useful, reblog and pass it along!
