Title: Bodyshape/Hi-Res conflict?
Post by: nina on May 30, 2006, 01:30:50 pm
Hey warlokk

I'm very confused!
I've been using the hi-res nudes for my sims - just 34A-D and 32-36 hips.

 Now I just downloaded the bodyshape tops and outfits for 34A/B/C and I found that all the hi-res tops have disappeared from Body Shop, except the default and D cup models, though I have removed nothing at all from my Downloads folder.
Is this normal or am I missing something really obvious?
In using these tops and outfits, will my nude sims lose their detail?
If I delete ALL the smooth tops and bottoms, will the hi-res ones reappear?
Presumably the full body and outfit meshes have no bearing on how the sims look in the shower.
I've got nearly 400 items in my downloads folder, most of them yours... any suggestions you can give me would be welcome before I start weeding.

Thanks

Aaah... yes, you downloaded the old versions of a few of the meshes then.  In the Hi-res sets, I also included a Mesh Cleanup batch file for each one.  This will remove the old versions of the meshes you installed, and the new ones should work again.

I know this can be a pain, but it also allows any clothing made with the old meshes to automatically transition to the new ones, so the trade-off is worth it... there are some really great outfits folks made for the first BodyShape set, and I didn't want to make people lose those.

I see... I think. Still a teensy bit confused though.
Where can I find the new outfits? Are there 'smooth' versions of the hi-res tops and bottoms for 'peek-free' outfitting? I don't suppose the batch files will work on a Mac, will they?
Sorry to be a dim wit.

I just released the DD sizes of the Top Separates, which would provide some less... revealing tops... :)  Other sizes are still forthcoming though.

The batch script is DOS/Command line stuff, so I doubt it... but I also list which mesh files need to go away in the post.

Thanks. I just found what I should have downloaded in the first place.
To save myself further confusion, I'm deleting everything warlokk and starting again from scratch.
Thanks again.
