*Request* Ren Gal Flag Dress

[Hazard_Tsunami]

Can someone please create a mesh and color for the full body Ren Gal body type for a dress that is similar to this one found at MTS2 (only more detailed and without a messed up mesh): http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=101477

It doesn't have to be an exact likeness, but I would like it to be red, white, and blue and to display the American flag on it. Thank you, you who take on this challenge...

So then... that's a no?

I'm fairly sure there's something like that around here already for one of the other shapes, although MUCH higher quality... it would be a simple thing to convert it in Bodyshop, the tutorial is in the How-To linked in my signature.

Thank you so much for your reply! I haven't actually seen a dress like that anywhere else (I searched for hours... OneBlondMomma has some striped outfits, but they are a bit... skimpy). I will see if I can get recoloring and texture down and I'll look through the tutorial.

Thank you again!

Edit: The tutorial just tells me how to use an already existing outfit. I prefer not to use the dress I formerly referred to since the mesh is messed up at the neck and the dress lacks detail. Looks like I'm back to square one.

Use the principle of the tutorial to change the dress texture to a mesh that you think would look better. It will be a bit of trial and error to find the right combonation, and it might not work, but you won't know till you try.

Is this kind of what you are/were looking for? o_O



I did make it in RenGal form... so if you want it, here ya' go...
You will however need the mesh located here:: http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=48202

That is exactly what I was looking for! Ohh, thank you!

Although I'm highly embarrassed that I wasn't able to find it myself when it was right here on this site... I tried using the search term "patriotic", "flag dress", "flag", and "red, white, and blue", but I had no luck.

Thank you very much for your time! ~deeply embarrassed~

Edit: It isn't working correctly (doesn't show up in Body Shop). I have all the EPs up through Pets (Family Fun Stuff is the only stuff pack I have). Can you tell me where you got this dress from, please?

[SharpeiVampire]

I gave you the mesh link, but other than that... I skinned it myself.
Hmmm... I wonder why it isn't working.
Although, I have all of the 'Stuff' packs and I have through 'Bon Voyage'.. it should still work. >_>
Did you properly extract it?

PS:: No need to feel embarrassed, it isn't located on this site... or any.
It is something I personally made.

[BlooM]

It does showup properly in everyday clothing.
Make sure you downloaded the mesh and extract all in your dl folder.

[Hazard_Tsunami]

Yes, they're in my download folder. Here's what I mean:


I have certain... limitations on my computer that make it time consuming for me to use SIMPE. This dress has its own GUID and everything, right?

[SharpeiVampire]

It should have it's own GUID, yes... It works just fine in my game, and BlooM said it works in his as well.. >_>
I don't know what the problem could be. o_o;

[Warlokk]

You're missing the mesh... it reverts to a default Maxis outfit when it can't find a proper mesh for an item.  In the link to BlooM's post, make sure you have the file marked "Mesh", and install that to Downloads as well.

[BlooM]

To make it even more easier......
Here's the direct link:

[Hazard_Tsunami]

... It did turn out that I didn't extract the mesh correctly. (Just my luck... I've extracted millions of files before this one...)

I apologize for the mishap (again).

The dress is working... and it is beautiful! Thank you, SharpeiVampire. Thank you, BlooM, for the dress mesh. Thank you, Warlokk, for the body mesh. I can commence my project now :angel:

[SharpeiVampire]

HAHA! Well, I am glad it finally worked for you! ^_~
You are VERY welcome and I hope you you enjoy it. ^_^
