Guess who's been working on hairs!

So, the good news, I have all female hairs pretty much done! :D

Bad news, I realized I messed a few up and then right in the middle of fixing them I had some major computer issues which really killed my momentum. >.<

However, I'm crossing my fingers that in the next month the bad taste the computer nonsense left in my mouth will be gone and I can get those hairs squared away and maybe start on the male hairs.

#simsmadegeeky talks #simsmadegeeky update #my goal is to have them out before 25 may which is when paralives comes out #paralives will never be able to replace TS2 #i just think it's impossible for anything to ever come close to the magic that is TS2 #but it would be really wonderful to find another life sim that's fun

Just wanted to put out a quick note letting y'all know that retexturing all the default hairs in the sunshine system is not done and I will eventually be back at it.

I'm one of those people who often goes through intense periods of fixation before it tapers off either temporarily (TS2) or forever (Starfield). I can guarantee without a single doubt in my mind that I will always eventually get back to TS2. I've been playing it for almost 20 years at this point and I always come back.

I can't say when I'll be back to retexturing hair as I don't have much control over when the fixations end or begin.

But I wanted y'all want to know that I am still here and, I promise, I will eventually be back to retexturing. Thanks to everyone who follows me and likes my posts; it really does make me smile to see that people like my retextures.

It's been a hot minute so just wanted to reblog this and say that this is still true.

VERY IMPORTANT! Please read the edit note above.

Again, apologies for any trouble this have caused. I will do my absolute best to make sure this doesn't happen again.

Uploading all promotional photos, that I have, the Nikita Cast have done with the show.

These ones feature Maggie Q in Season 1

I'm not really one of those people who does fancasts but I saw this and my brain immediately went BELLA GOTH. So I guess I have exactly one fancast and it is Maggie Q in Nikita as Bella Goth.

They are already selling data to midjourney, and it's very likely your work is already being used to train their models because you have to OPT OUT of this, not opt in. Very scummy of them to roll this out unannounced.

writterings

here's some instructions for anyone who doesn't know how to opt out:

login in on desktop, it's not available on mobile yet

click "Account"

click on your blog

go to "Blog Settings"

go to "Visibility"

Scroll down to the bottom option

turn the toggle ON, not off

you will have to do this individually for each sideblog you have too, no way to do it for each account in one go

the-rear-admiral-reborn

Just confirmed that this works perfectly on a Firefox for Android with "Desktop Mode" turned on. Other mobile browsers probably also work.

If, on Android, you keep getting redirected to the app, temporarily disable redirecting in your device's Settings app by searching for "Apps" and then selecting Tumblr, then tap "Open by Default" and toggle off "Open Supported Links." Repeat when you're done to turn it back on.

#simsmadegeeky talks #for anyone wondering my current fixation is skyrim #which eventually led to modding skyrim #so i'm currently working on putting together a modlist to use #no idea if i'll get around to playing it before i lose interest XD #(skyrim is also one of those things that i come back to #just way less often that i come back ts2)

As a personal project (but that I'm planning on sharing), I'm making a spreadsheet of the hair and clothes each premade uses. And I've learned that, wow, they just did not care about men's hair at all.

Like, I know that are there are few male hairs to use in the game in general but still, of the 29 male (base game) premades that I've written info down for, 7 of them have had the shortcombed hair. Seven! That's almost 1/4 of the ones I have down. There are ~25 non-hat hairstyles for men and yet, somehow, the same hair is getting used seven times.

(The thought behind this sheet is so that I know what clothes I should try to keep similar, for character reasons, and which ones I could just totally go crazy with.)

#simsmadegeeky talks #why are you even doing this geeky?#i'm struggling with a lot of Shit and spreadsheets make me feel better #which i know is a really weird thing to say #but i am who i am and that is a spreadsheet nerd #and anyway this particular project because it was what i thought of #buy why not retexture hairs geeky?#listen i would love to but right now i'm making a ton of mistakes just writing words #i'm not going to try to do something as fiddly as actually retexturing #that way leads to only madness #y'all don't even want to know how many typos i had to delete in this post and tags

Images for the 82 hair defaults dump (3/3)

(Part 1) (Part 2)

For various reasons I had the time to quickly (and with great ugliness) label the hair images and I’m putting them below the read more. It’s a quick and dirty little post but hopefully it will help people. Here's the final post!

For various reasons I had the time to quickly (and with great ugliness) label the hair images and I’m putting them below the read more. It’s a quick and dirty little post but hopefully it will help people. Tumblr will only allow so many pics per post so it looks like it's going to be three posts.

For various reasons I had the time to quickly (and with great ugliness) label the hair images and I'm putting them below the read more. It's a quick and dirty little post but hopefully it will help people. Tumblr will only allow so many pics so this is the first of at least two posts.

Spreadsheet updated (again)

Spreadsheet has been updated with links!

To the left of the pictures are the hair it replaced. Those are now also links to the download for that hair.

If you find that I linked the wrong hair, please let me know.

(As a reminder, this spreadsheet was originally made for personal use so the first two sheets/tabs are my personal notes. Previews are found on the 3rd (female) and 4th (male eventually). These sheets/tabs are on the bottom left.)

Heads up: The download dump was somehow missing the toddler mob hair. Still no idea how that happened. It has now been uploaded.

Random note: Some of the missing hairs are missing not because I haven't gotten to them yet but because another sunshiner has done one that I like. When I have time, I'll try to go through and add links to their posts.

Thanks, y'all, for your patience as i stumble through and make this way more of a mess than it needs to be. Things have been rough lately and my thought processes are definitely not up to par and so this is a lot harder than it normally would be to put together.

#simsmadegeeky default spreadsheet (with previews)#would anyone prefer that i make a separate spreadsheet for the previews?#it was easier for me at the time to just add a new sheet/tab to my default notes spreadsheets #but i don't think it'd be a lot of extra work to just make a new one just for previews #let me know if you have a strong wish for a separate spreadsheet #just realized i need to update the spreadsheet of hairs already sunshined #with my huge hair dump #i don't have time to do that right now so that will have to be future geeky's problem #also also while i'm here #do people actually read pinned posts #if so would y'all like it if i made one?#i just realized that i could make these questions into a quiz #maybe i'll do that at some point

Spreadsheet update!

All hair previews of all the defaults that I've put up for download have been added to the spreadsheet for my default hairs (specifically, the 3rd sheet/tab).

I have also added a link to the sfs folder that has all my default replacement hairs (females only atm) at the top of the page/sheet for ease of use.
