Hello all! It's been awhile...I know. Life is life.
I do still love making genetically correct sims and recently I've been wanting to start a new Pleasantview. I like my old genetically correct Pleasantview, but it was a first try and I'd like to give it a bit of a refresh. Plus it's fun for me. :P
This time around I want to slowly work on each family + lots, releasing them slowly at first and then have the combined hood at the end. This allows me to really focus and expand on each one. Plus I'm generally not very motivated, but I think working small parts at a time will help this. All parents extracted from Croconaw/MeetMetotheRiver's Clean Pleasantview template. Offspring created in CAS.
A little refresher on the Newbie-Broke lineage...
To note I only considered the genetics of the previous generation in making the current playables. For example, Betty Newbie's appearance was extracted directly from SimPe. She was not genetically created with recreated Vadim/Fatima Simovitch. I did attempt this, but found that Brandi would look too dissimilar from her original non-gc face. I still want to keep with the general aesthetics of the original faces, just obviously improved, especially for the second-gen playables like Dustin and Beau.
So first, we have the Newbies:
Bob + Betty = Brandi
slight face shape changes, smaller less-bug eyes
The Brokes:
Flat + Flo = Skip, Ruby
smaller Broke nose, forehead/brows from Flo
Bonus! Ruby Broke, Skip's older sister seen in TS3.
"Ruby Broke is thinking about moving out but she enjoys the convenience of having family close by."
I absolutely LOVE her face. I think it's a perfect mix between Flat and Flo. I did garner inspiration for her hair/outfit/eyes from her Sims 3 version.
And finally...the boys.
Brandi + Skip = Dustin, Beau, Unborn Baby Broke
Dustin -
looks completely different, less sad and looks far more like Skip
Beau -
again looks very different...but now actually looks related to Dustin, yet not like twins which I thought I lacked on last time.
and there we are...
I have both the individual sims downloads, a combined package, plus the .simpe face templates that you can use to replace in any Pleasantview or other hood right now
Note: Female sims will take your default replacement makeup or lack thereof. So warning they make look a little bit crazy at first.
