I found this nun dress at http://www.rosesims.org/clothes/roseclothes_2.htm

would really appreciate if someone could convert this for Warlokk's 34DD size or guide me as to which existing mesh the texture could be applied maybe ? I'm a novice I just know the bodyshop trick for converting textures to Warlokk's BodyShape mesh outfits..

I think I can do this. Which hip size would you want for the outfit? 

firstly thank you for your reply , secondly I would prefer the standard maxis 34 hip size :)

Sorry hamzaayub, but I have some bad news: my game got borked and I had to uninstall it. Fortunately, I was able to make a back-up of all of my sims 2 archives (downloads, saved games and such), but I won't be able to finish your request until I reinstall the game and I'm afraid that it will be on next Friday. Sorry for the delay.
P.S. I didn't ask you before, but, do you want the bust to be 34DD enhaced or natural?

good thing you were able to back everything up :D and natural is good , always has been , always will be :P

I'm sorry, but I have bad news again. I finally managed to reinstall the game (after one extra week of waiting) and made the conversion, but there's a problem with the shading of the mesh that appears when I load the mesh in Poser and does not dissappear no matter what I do with it on Milkshape later. It looks like this:

I can do two things, finish this conversion and upload it or convert another nun dress for you if you want, because I can't fix that awful shading, sorry.

That shading usually appears when the smoothing is done wrong, or is imported wrong. Perhaps check the settings in Poser (and in Milkshape?).

I'm not familiar with Poser, but I've seen this tendency between Milkshape and 3D max (there are two mesh settings, one that handles triangular whish is the one Milkshape reads best, and one that reads square polygons best that is easiest to model with - which MS seems to hate. Conversion between these is not popular with either). It tends to happen if there are separate vertices for all the polys like this <||> instead of the vertices belonging to the same polys like this <|>, and the program thinks there are two sides instead of one, and makes an edge, while the smoothing has troubles deciphering it. This meses with the normals, and you get this result.

There might also be a problem with the normals.

The easiest way to fix it, is to fix the import/export settings in Poser (and Milkshape?). If this happens,t hen the settings are most likely wrong somewhere.

Thank you so much for your advice, Theraven. I managed to fix the mesh's shading by changing the import settings in poser 3yay. This is how it looks now:

If you like this, hamzaayub, just let me know and I will upload it  ;). Have a nice day.

yes that looks great please do upload it good sir  :D and thank you so much Theraven for the little tidbit you're both awesome.

Sorry for taking so long, but I had sended an e-mail to Rose asking for permission to upload her mesh with my modifications and I haven't recieved an answer yet. Should I upload the outfit anyway (and quit it if I recieve a negative answer) or should I wait for her to give me permission?

Her TOU states permission is needed to upload her free items, so you would have to wait, unfortunately, if you want to share it here.


Of course (as an alternative), what you PM to one another (*cough*fileshare link*cough*) we have no control over (*hint hint*). ;)

Then I will wait to upload it to the site *wink, wink*. Thanks for the advice, caffeinated.joy.
