"Shower-Proof" Skins for the Barbie Bodybuilder Mesh

[BeosBoxBoy]

These are (of course) for the Bodybuilder meshes, the necessary meshes are contained in the RAR archives. The meshes are also in a separate RAR archive file for creators to link to. These meshes ARE NOT A DEFAULT NUDE REPLACEMENT, they will work only with this skintone by means of a soft-link in the skintone files itself. So to say it another way, No, your normal sims will not all be bodybuilders in the shower!

SPECIAL NOTICE TO NON-ENGLISH LANGUAGE VERSION USERS:
Some localised language versions of The Sims 2 do not use the true
nude state at any point in the game because of the national laws of
various states and nations (e.g., Thailand); these skins will not work
correctly on all versions of the game.  They have been tested and
shown to work on US English, UK English, and French language versions
of the game.  If you cannot get them to work on your native language
version of The Sims 2, there is NOTHING I can do to make them work
for you.

A potential solution is available: Naked4Thai v1.0 By tunaisafish - this is one of the lost files at SexySims2 so you will have to be creative to find it.

The mesh is not a skin mesh that you see as a clothing selection, but is used by the skintone under the shower or in any true nude state.

Feel free to recolour this in any way you see fit. Please link back to the original thread and give credit to Marvine and Beosboxboy (in that order).

I highly recommend Ailias' Birthmarks Set for use with these skintones: (quo vide: http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=2769)

WARNING: THERE ARE NO DETAILS ON THE FEMALE PORTIONS OF THE SKINTONES! An adult version is forthcoming.

There are a BUNCH of them, so bear with me!

Special Thanks to AllenABQ (HairySims) for permission to work with his hair patterns for this work, Derzicom (GSC), Jessica and Kavar for a lot of inspiration, help, and ideas! And OMG how could I forget Crmelsimlover & Dipo for testing and debugging!!

Additional skintones by Derzicom are available at http://www.gaysimsclub2.net and Hony at MTS2

UPDATE 21-Mar-2006: Added the AllenABQ's HairySims version to fill bkmaddog's request

Tazmanyak,

Believe me I gave this a long hard thought, but for now I'd be able to use the fitness factor only for the nude state... Still thinking about it, so who knows?

[Innocent]

hi...I write from italy
 I have downloaded the skins and the meshes, but in the game I only see the skins... where are the meshes?

p.s. and in the rar archive, I find many files with the same name... the computer asks me If I want the previously extracted file to be sobstituted with the one I'm trying to extract..what do I have to do?

Erebo: welcome to InSIMenator!

You are doing nothing wrong.  The meshes with the skintones are for true nude states of the game (e.g., under the shower, taking a bath, etc.)  There are "invisible" clothes that can be made to allow walking around nude - this is simulated nude.

There are other meshes and clothing that are needed for the bodybuilder to be a bodybuilder in every day Sim life.  You will find them in the other sections of the forum.

I noticed that a couple of the skins have tattoos when selecting the icon with and without the tattoo but with the same skin color.  If this an error or is there something else different about the skins that I'm missing?

Raynus - the tattoo icons are for the skintones that have tattoos on them, the tattoo pattern is that used by Maxis for it's University EP outfits.
