Some previews with cursed stretched shots. Hair will be a little longer due to some screw-ups I found in game. I missed some normals where I patched the hole where the head wrap was, and I'll need to figure out what's up with the braids, since they have the background show through in some spots.

On the plus side, the clothes and shoes are ready, so I'll be releasing those as soon as I get them packed up.

Another wip since I saw the fair folk kid's hair and wanted it without the hair wrap. I'm hoping to have it done soon, but I'm having issues getting it morphed right.

I realized when I was starting to export the meshes for the teen and elders that I had forgotten to even test that the mesh was even going to work. So, upon importing it into the workshop for the dance party test, the hands were exploded. It's so odd how you can use a base mesh for the weights to make sure they're right, only for it to still break.

Gonna need to smooth out the arms though, since they have that hard shadow seam going along parts of the hands and horribly noticeable on the arms. That's just from the store dress arms though. :I

Though the EA store clothes were working on some other level of magic since they never included body morphs it seemed like.

On one hand, I've been told ver 2.0.88 is the best version for making sims 3 content with TSRW. On the other, I wonder if later versions ever addressed the "You do one thing, and it's immediately out of memory" error. I wonder if there's anything that can be done to address it if anything hasn't been done for it yet?

Additionally, the hair is now not an instance object reference. I'm going to scream.

For the shirt, would it be better to have two separate items with different color channels, or to have them as one item with two presets for the different masks? I ask since I'm not sure what would be better. ' - ' ;

Which? :0

Make them separate

Make them presets

Catching the rona slowed me down a little, but I'm honestly very pleased with how the texture turned out. It's very simple, so all the knit patterns should really pop out. It just needs some minor tweaks where it isn't totally crisp, maybe bring back the wrinkles at the bottom of the back seam.

Now just to make all the morphs, and be mindful of the normals on the stomach and back. For some reason, it always makes weird little spots. :I

Finally re-remembered how to use the scale function properly and smoothed out the seams of the mesh where it was stitched together. Just working on smoothing out the UVs. Someone has probably already cut a top from the dress the shirt is pulled from, but screw it, doing it anyway. :V

It's gonna have a tucked version too.
