Sneak Peek: The Sims 2 Pets Breed Overhaul
This custom content pack will provide updated versions of every Maxis dog & cat breed in the sims 2, ranging from small tweaks to significant model changes and new coat colors (coats and breeds unlocked through gameplay are not included or required). This will diversify the gene pool for pets and provide the variety and genetics mixing that the community has desperately wanted for years. I plan to release this in 3 parts, starting with the large breed dogs. The goal is to have part 1 posted within the next couple months.
In the meantime, here's a sneak peek at the new Great Dane model and some genetics testing I did.
I gave the Dane model a much larger/wider head and slimmed the rest of its body a bit to make it look closer to real-life Great Dane proportions.
For genetics testing, I used the above fawn coat (a Maxis Dane coat I altered to give it more depth) and a completely custom "merlequin" coat variant. I used this mod by KittenInTheWindow to show all coat markings on the puppies.
They had a litter of 3, 2 of which had a nice mix of layers from both parents (and the other is just a merlequin with tan feet I guess haha).
These are the pups as adults:
I then tested to see how the merlequin coat would mix with Webster's (a premade Kerry Blue Terrier). At first the puppy seemed like he would be almost a copy of Webster, but turned out to have nicely mixed genes when he grew up.
I'm so excited to get this project finished and I hope I can make something the sims community will love! Feedback is always appreciated and encouraged!
Stick around for more updates. :)
