These are the basic full body (no-nipples) with and without the infamous bulge.
They are the absolute must for starting any bodybuilder collection. You
should download all of these, yes there are two versions of the nude that
are identical in shape but they have different GUID numbers, and since
there is no easy way to tell which version the creators out there chose to
use, it is best to have both versions.  The top mesh is the same throughout
so do let that over-write itself when you are extracting the files.

The skintones are not pictured, since they are just the Maxis default skins
"shower-proofed" to use the bodybuilder nude meshes.

Formerly there were two versions of these skintones - one linked to the bulge
version of the bottom, but it was obsolesced as we made versions with and
without plumbing.  The versions of the meshes posted here for the skintones
are non-bulge in consideration of Crammyboy's masterful hack.

SPECIAL NOTE TO CUSTOM CONTENT CREATORS: when making recolours of
the skintones, make sure to use the Dark version as your recolouring base,
Body Shop has a nasty habit of not including the face or scalp specifications
in the final project if you use any other colour.

Fantastic babe!!!!

One Stop Shopping!  Just what I love!

Thanx Yakov!

:rofl:

 


Yakov.~`* Thank you.
:love7:

Thanks so much for making it so simple!

I love all the Bodybuilder range. Thankyou

Thank you. I've decided to put some bodybuilders in the game.

Thanks, it is very clear and useful!

You are truly fabulous, thanks

Thank you!

Thanks for putting this all together!  Can we expect this for the other genres of body-builders as well?

yes - right now the superhero is under-going an overhaul

The slim body builder is next

Hi....first post here with a question.....can somebody point me in the direction on a tut on how to make these skins permanent to a particular Sim? So it doesn't get chucked in the shower and all that.

Intermagus - there isn't a tutorial because it is mind-numbingly easy - use a shower-proof skintone when you create the Sim.

You will need to decide on which version, and there are far to many too list them all here, and whether or not you want to use Crammyboy's hack or the version of the skintone that comes with its own plumbing is a decision only you can make.  In all the hard part for most people is deciding which version, and no one can help you there.

But remember - the "shower-proof" skintones have to be used and require meshes - and as previously stated are very numerous in variety.  But to start - just use one of the basic mesh versions above and give it a test run.

Thank You Yakov!

Please explain the difference between a normal skin and shower-proof skin. Is there some way to identify them using a package editor or some other means? Or make an existing skin so? Please forgive my ignorance.....I'm relatively new to the terminology used in the explanation.

Thank you very much.

a normal skintone is one shipped by Maxis or one that uses the Maxis default nude meshes; "shower-proof" skintones have been modified by a very clever hacking (discovered by the lovely Marvine - all praise her name eternally) that use custom meshes.

Most will have a custom icon that informs you they are linked in some manner to something.  Below are examples of the icons you can expect to see.

(http://www.insimenator.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=28091&stc=1&d=1153541931)

When you are building a Sim in Create-A-Family or Create-A-Student, you click the * by the darkest Maxis skintone, select the one you want -- keep in mind you will not suddenly see the mesh it uses in a true nude state, that will only occur in game -- and that bit of doing is done.

If you find they are just a floating head in the shower, you have neglected to download the meshes or placed them in a location that the game cannot find them.  For this reason nude state meshes should always be in the Downloads folder, not a folder inside the Downloads folder.  Some versions of the game may or may not work the other way; but since I am not psychic I only give the advice I know to work 100% of the time.

So to recap - download the skintone you like, get the meshes, install all in your Downloads folder, start the game and get as twisted as you want to be making literally dozens of different versions of the same Sim.

PS: "shower-proof" is a common terminology, I suggest you take a moment to look at the genetics section of this sub-forum for further information

Excellent....thank you for your patience and explanation. I will check into getting more of the lingo down. :book:

Thank you...I have a floating head in the shower and bathtub of my slim body builder.  Will these file meshes fix it, or do I need something else?

possibly - there are additional meshes that are linked to adult versions with "plumbing" in the adults only section of the forum

Thanks again!!!

Great job as always!  Thanks!

I absolutely love all your meshes, to the point of obsession, thank you, thank you and thank you again

Very Smart. Thank You very much.

Thank you for having them all here. I'm missing a mesh for something. I think it's swimwear. But I downloaded so much yesterday, that I don't know which one it is. Time to redownload all meshes.

Hi I'm new here. just have to say your bodybuiler meshes and skins are amazing!, I followed your "what do i need to make a bodybuilder thread" Thank you for making it so easy, everything you need all in one place, with clear easy to follow instructions. I feel a sim hunk explosion about to happen in my game:)  thanks again for making it possible

Sweeet, love these men.  They make great warriors for my D&D realm.

these are my favorite skins to use,

New gym opening DownTown, working wonders for Scaramento guys! Fabulous work, thank you!

These are great, I too am going to try bodybuilders in my game.  I do have a lot of questions about how they appear when they go to work (clothing & meshes), but I can wait and see what happens.  If I continue to look through this site, that will probably be answered too.  The questions and answers following the "attached files" have answered all the other questions I would have ask.

Hi there!  How do I load these meshes in Simpe?  None of them will work

start Simpe - browse to file - select - open

Thank you so much!!

Thanks. I love your work!

Thank you for making my game so much more fun.

These will make a lot of Sims look so much better. Thank you so much.

Good work on your meshes!
I love it!

This rocks, man. Great job! I use it all the time!

I love this body mesh!@

Do the fat/pregnancy morphs work for these meshes?

Nice work - they look great!!  Thanks a bunch!

I just want to say big thank you's to Marvine and Beosboxboy for all of your hard work.  I have downloaded all of the bodybuilders and I must say, they are damn right drool-worthy in game!  Loving having new bodyshapes to play with.  You are both awesome and thank you again. :)

I love these skin colours.There the best ones i've seen so far.Thank u very much.Great Job.:):)

I've just downloaded some of your great slim body builder meshes, and one shower proof file. I've read the explanation in the beginning of this thread, and other less descriptive explanations on various other sites.

I still have some questions, and i didn't know where else to ask.

you mentioned genetics, are the shower-proof skintones passed down to kids?
how does the game know how to use the shower proof nudes? does it link "this sim is wearing this mesh, which corresponds to this nude mesh"?
will my sim's original skintone show? if not, is there a way to get the sim's individual skintone to show?
can your sim's genetics be custom skintones for the showeproof or will it only link to default skintones?
and lastly, is there a tutorial to make showerproof skins?

hee, sorry, if that was too many questions and
if this is the wrong place to post this, i'll repost it somewhere else if you'll direct me.

Thanks bunches! *hugs*

Thank you so much for this wonderful download. I used the body builder in my Dragonlance neighborhood as Caramon; next to him Raistlen now does indeed look weak and sickly. LOL. Really great download. By the way, I have Pets installed, everything went into the SavedSims folder, and so far everything works perfectly, no problems. Thanks again, you guys are much appreciated for your hard work. Hugs.

Thanks!  This makes it much easier when everything is all together.  You guys rock - all of your hard work makes my simmies (and me) extremely happy.  How can I pay you back?  Thanks just doesn't say it well enough...

Thank you so much, and also for your patiently explaining the operations to use these.  I am one of those people that need things told in an A,B,C kind of order.  So thank you for your detailed explanations.

Thanx for these.  They seem to work very well so far.  I've tried them in CAS with the barbi meshes linked to in the frist post of this thread and everything looks great.  You did a real good job with these and they're going to add a lot to some of the movies I'm making.  Thanx.

wow wow thanks

So many thank yous are in order here.

OMG Awsome.  TY :)

I must a real dummy lol I still have the floating head on a lady sim, but the guy is perfect.back to reading instructions, maybe coffee too. These are great by the way.

thank you, you big yums! *smooches*

Alguem fala portugues?

Thank you! :D

Great job! Thanks

Can ya tell me where to find this great bodybuilder mesh that I swear I am soooo close to getting!!!!

you are best to make bodybuilder, Great work^^

I've heard and read about your "bodybuilder" meshes for a long time but finally decided to give them a try myself. Downloaded, got 'em into my game and WOW..... :smt118

What I've been missin'. Thank you so much for sharing these! :D

Thank you thank you thank you....

Where can I get more clothes for the muscular male body. I downloaded the jeans, tops, underware, g-sting, workout wear and some sweater sets that can be used for Winter outerware but didn't notice any downloads for formal wear. Is there other sites I can find more clothing or specifically Formal outfits for the body builder physique?

First I have to say that ur work is great, I love it. But I have a problem, I create a sim using beos-ju_barbienude-light.package, it appears with no muscles.. that is ok because I like it that way, I love the face and body effects, but when I play the game and make my sim, for example, go to take a bath, or get nude, he looks muscled like the pics above  :(  . I'd like to know what to do to fix this problem, I really like my sims with beos-ju_barbienude-light.package but I want it all the playing time.

Thanks :)

Amen to that, and thanks for the very good explanation. Also many many thanks for the meshes - finally a small counterweight to all those cupDDDD meshes! Now I can just get as dirty-minded about my sims as 15 year old boys. Oh joy.:blob6:
