2009.12 - Vintage

[moryrie]

Would redecorating one of the vacation homes in France in a Vintage theme work for this?

[Emhpb]

Thanks for kicking, Redikolous! <3

[Fancysandwich]

No problem~  It's what I do!

[Emhpb]

Haha, I still believe that people who do unpaid jobs should be thanked regularly. C:

I'm going to try making more custom vintage dresses, on better meshes this time, with more texture. After I finish my SS pressie. xD

moryrie, I personally think that would be great. I love old houses.

[moryrie]

If at least one person will like it. ^^

But I noticed many of the ones in France are mostly unfurnished. One or two floors may be done, but the others will be empty, and they're all quite bare, which is why I thought of it. Following the vintage look for them will also help them blend in with their neighbors.

Moryie that would be great!

I'm getting TS3 reinstalled tomorrow so I'll start working on something for the theme

[mariarita]

is beautiful, and I love these books, thank you ...

Alrighty, here is another attempt by me to make something decent and usable. Please don't kill me... D:

I made a vintage evening gown with pics from here: http://www.coutureallure.com/products/vintage-60s-silk-chiffon-evening-gown-att-sarmi-small-bust-36

The mesh is from here: http://www.lianasims3.net/

Everything else is hours of hitting the CTU with a hammer done by me. C:

Yay.

Back:

Looks much nicer than front.

Fugly: (I am nothing if not honest)


Seam and discolorations. (seam courtesy of me, discolorations are a mesh problem that I can't seem to fix, but I've contacted Liana and there's a small chance that she'll know what to do)


Another mesh-related problem that occurs when the sim is standing still with feet apart. There's nothing I can do about this.

It has occured to me that I can redo this on a maxis mesh, but that would be more work, so if you like this and would like to see a higher-quality maxis version, please let me know.

Also, if you have any suggestions for improvement, I would love to hear them. (Be nice though- this process for me is almost completely blind and there're only so many times I can load the game to check my work)

This is sooooo fantastic.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[Hrothgar]

YOU ROX!! Haha. Thank you.

After much deliberation, I finally decided what to make for my first vintage offering: vinyl record clocks! Something I've wanted in the game for ages but until recently had no idea how to make. Now I can mesh, the sky's the limit, really!  



The clocks really work and the hands are recolourable. Plus they all show up under one menu item. I've included both a package and a Sims3Pack in the zip file, so you can choose which one you'd rather put in your game. Hope you like them, and please, let me know if you find any problems at all.
