Hello!
It's quite long since my last activity here, thought I don't think I'll return to Sims 3 due to its unstable condition and even if with guides, it still ran woth issues.
Someday, thought no guaranteed, I might post my TS4 hair recolors.

Hi! I've been using your Puppy Crow recolors, whether cc or the gamepacks, but I noticed some of the hairs use 'texture ref'. I've been recoloring for private but I can't find tutorials for it. How do you do it? Thank you and I wish you a good day.
Hi @moonlight-hollow 💜
There is this tutorial by @ddeathflower
Woah woah woah woah, I knew repositoring textures was a thing in TS2, but you can do it in TS4 as well? How? Game changing right? :D Now wit
I used this tutorial and created a tutorial that is a bit more detailed under the cut, I hope this helps you!
Hello again!
Managed to take some time to update my PuppyCrow gradient maps to the version I'm currently using. Thank you @xvampiresimmerx for reminding me to update it!
.GRD file. Goes inside your Photoshop files at the \Presets\Gradients folder OR you can drag and drop to your open Photoshop gradients menu.
ACTIONS NOT INCLUDED THIS TIME, because it causes conflicts to your PS version and folders organization. If you have the previous actions already set up, these ones might work with the same commands.

Express Tutorial: How to fix some weird Dirty Blonde textures made by EA or making Dirty Blonde from any texture ever (for recolors)

This tutorial will teach you: Photoshop Gradients Maping and how to disrespect EA color choices properly

There is something inside my mind..
... and it's a question. Would you guys be interested if I post my gamepack puppycrow recolors?
yes
nah
and the thing is... those recolors will have proper haircolor and color tags, given i once recolored in witching hours palette.
A bit announcement here
Finally I managed to get access to this blog again after Tumblr logged me out without warning, and unfortunately, as in November 2023, I'm no longer play Sims 3 due to personal(and technical) reasons.
This blog is pretty much archived, and I probably plan to post my sims 4 pack hair recolors to here(just pack hairs, no cc hairs)
I find some of Store hairs can be adorable and it's one reason why I also started retexturing Store hairs that hasn't get the Adjust Shine treatment yet. And I also start doing EA retexture for some Store hairs in case some people prefer it over the AS one.

Let's show that TS3 core feature called Create-a-Style some love 💜
The CaSt feature is one of the most unique and defining features of the Sims 3. Let's use it to our advantage!
As a pattern creator, I am counting on the ability to recolor CC so that my patterns can be widely used. Making patterns is a pretty lonely road these days (it's more of an overgrown path, hardly anyone travels it anymore). While most likely not the only culprit, the rise of non-recolorable CC (read: patterns cannot be applied or look terrible) definitely plays a role in this development. I admit that I sometimes worry about my place among fellow creators, should this trend continue to gain momentum. Patterns are at the heart of the Sims 3 and there are only a few pattern creators left. It would be sad to see the numbers dwindle even more. It would mean that a lot of creative potential in our games will vanish. Inside the Sims 3, patterns are an important asset to make our creative visions come true, as they can completely transform the look of most objects (and clothes, accessories, walls, you name it). As part of a community, creators have the opportunity to lift each other up, and object/clothing creators can help fellow pattern creators feel valued by including a recolorable swatch (and tidying up that UV mask so they will look good, too 🤪). Furthermore, creators have the opportunity to work hand in hand to enhance the value/usability of their CC for all fellow simmers. So let's do this! If you are a CC creator and have not made your creations recolorable, but are interested in doing so, or in improving your skills, why don't we have a conversation about it? Let's get behind the mystery of recolorable CC. We can put our heads together as a community and share resources, tips, tutorials, and workflows to teach each other how to make RGB masks, edit multipliers, bake AO maps, and straighten those UVs. If you are an experienced creator and are open to sharing your process on how to make CC recolorable, or simply know some great tutorials, please feel free to share in the comments or reblog with info! Feel free to post your questions or concerns too so we may find common ground and appreciate each other's efforts.
Let's make a positive change together 🙏

Retexture dump time~ I've been retexturing so long(2021 to be exact) and since there are hairs that I wish to share here, alongside newer retextures I've done recently, here it is. While I mainly use Google Drive to store my CCs, I manage to regain access to my SFS, which has gathered dust for long.

Hello!
I'm a former simblr who just came back here to post my sims 3 retexture. Even so, I decide to not post any of my legacies for reasons.
