Title: ~ Girl only infant blankets ?
Post by: Katie on November 26, 2011, 06:31:16 pm
I was just wondering if anyone would be so kind as to make Girl only versions of the textures on tenshii's yellow, green, blue, and pink blankets? I know there is already a mesh made by theraven of girl only blankets, but I'm the most awful you could find at working with infant clothing textures... anybody care to help? :3


Please and thanks for any help!

It's not that hard. If you can use SimPE, all you have to do is to extract the old textures, open a girl texture-only file, replace the texture (using DXT3), before you save with a new name.

If you don't manage it, and Tenshii doesn't want to do it herself, then I could do it (her policy says the textures are free to use). I'm updating some old outfits of mine anyway

I'm surpsised I've not yet converted them for myself (as I love them). As you say, the mesh is converted already, so the hardest work is done.

I'll try, thanks for the help- I never would've gotten that far XD

I really love them, for no apparent reason, they're just so cute :3
They're solid colors but sooo cute.

I only wish that I could have hats on them, and still have the hair that comes on my default skins lol :)

Thank you muchly! :D

*sigh* I really need to learn how to prioritize... (Exam reading VS sleeping VS converting/creating)

Download Girl versions here (http://www.mediafire.com/?md9buceymklx9zz)
Meshes included. I did not include "nohat" texture files as the "nohat" mesh does the job.

The recolors got a "_Gonly" ending, and the meshes got a slight namechange for easier locating. Other than that the names are the same.

All credits to Tenshii, of course. I hope it's OK that I just went ahead and did it.

About the hats, it has bothered me too for a while now. Either the hair needs to be closer to the head, or the hat has to be slightly bigger. I'll take a look whenever I have some time. The hair won't be much visible under the hat, anyway.

Hahahaha I know the feeling. I SHOULD be doing my med skills homework thingy about handwashing right now. But I'm not; I'm trying to learn to use simPE XD

AWH! Thank you so much!

Of course it's fine by me!  ;D I haven't had much time lately, since I have important projects and exams coming up, plus work and other family related matters... (that and whatever little free time I do get at times I'm working on a new object/accessory series I'm really excited about... and playing Skyward Sword when I get tired of doing that.)  I already feel kinda bad... I did have plans on doing that, but I just got so wrapped up in other things it slipped my mind.  :-[

To be perfectly honest, I don't use baby hair other than what I already have on custom skintones, so I really didn't think that far when making those swaddled meshes. I might try looking into it someday, just to see what else can be done from that base. I'm pretty sure when I get back to those I can see if I can make another version that fits the hair better without looking weird. :)
