1  Retired Creators / Guest Bodyshape Add-ons / new Meshes D alpha dresses; Update 3-14-2007: added Teen D alpha dress on: February 18, 2007, 09:17:06 am
Hi again,

I have done my very best to solve all the issues.

Still two minor problems left which I cannot fix yet. If I find solutions I may come up with an update. There is some minimal clipping at the armpits left. Hardly to be noticed. Secondly the feet react quite strangly to dark textures. That's why the dark outfit is not absolutely black.

I changed my mind regarding the preview and grouped the shoes with the body instead of the alpha mesh. Doesn't make any visible difference regarding the straps. But I got rid of the shoe itself being strangely reflective. And it makes it easier to recolor for example if one likes to make some boots out of this.
The alpha dress is longer than can be seen here. Use the UV-Map to find out.

I am looking forward to see some nice recolors.

*** Update ***
With permission of Ghanima Atreides and Pestix I have made two more recolors using their textures. I have made quite some changes to the Cropped Pink Dress. And this time I have switched "stdMatAlphaBlendMode" to "none" and "stdMatAlphaTestEnabled" to "1" for the alpha texture.

*** Update ***
I corrected some vertex weights of the shoes. It lead to some funny shoe stretching in dance animation for example. I also put the mesh as seperate download.

*** Update 3-14-2007 ***
I have made a new alpha dress mesh for D teens. The dress follows the same conecpt but the shoes are different. This time real mesh straps for the shoes. The reason is that I made these shoes before I got used to normal mapping. But they are quite nice and need to get released although they are not as versatile.

Hi folks,

I am working an a new Mesh. It' s a 34D alpha dress with high heels.
Other body size may be made later on.

The goals are to achieve a realistic shape for decollete part of the dress and to have a mesh being easy to recolor.

The alpha group covers the skirt, the whole upper body except the hands, the shoes and the feet. The alpha part for the feet can be used to make sandals with different kinds of straps by only using the alpha channel. 3D effect for the straps can be achieved by normal mapping.
Existing dress textures can be used for recolors with only minor changes.
Although the example shows no underwear it is possible for example to let her wear a bra under the dress fitting the body.

I still have to get rid of some clipping, correct some vertex weights  and I am going to change the shoes a little bit.

Thanks to Pestix for allowing me to use one of her textures (originally black).
It shows the decollete shape quite good.
Thanks to Warlokk for his body shape project being the basis for this.

Feel free to make any suggestions.

Hi,

I have already seen some tries in this direction. But I have been yet unsatisfied.
So I gave a try myself. And I think it worked quite well.

I just love high heels (thank god my girlfriend too). Especially the mules now available to your D size teen sims.

This is my very first mesh-upload. So I hope I have got it right with the package files. Otherwise I will fix it anyway.

Have fun !

Credits go to Warlokk for his bodyshape project and to Liana Sims 2 of which I used a mesh package file as basis although completely replacing the mesh. The heels are based on a shoe by Al, http://www.simskins.net.

PS: Anybody may use the shoes part in hers/his own meshes. I do not have the time to do all the possible size/age combinations anyway but would like to see them coming.
