Hi All--

I've made it a rule up till now with my BodyShape project NOT to make any of the sizes a default replacement.  My thinking was, what's the point of a variety set if you make everyone the same size?

However, I get a lot of requests for this, and I'm thinking it over... it's a simple matter for me to create a mesh as a default replacement while I'm building them, rather than going back and figuring out how to make one out of an existing mesh.

So, please vote:  Which would you prefer for a default replacement size, or would you rather the default stayed 34B like it is?

Thanks!

One thing I thought of though... I will not be creating a set of the 34B defaults separately.  If you use a default replacement size, the 34B Default will cease to exist.  There will be 34B Natural options for some clothes, but not all... only the ones that make sense.  For this reason, I'm strongly considering scrapping the idea... I'm not all that keen on it to start with, and it's a whole lot more files to create and upload.  I'll keep the poll open for a bit though, see what people think.

I've been using Kathy's defaults for a while, but I really like your work  (no offense Kathy, honest Smiley  ), and I would love to see a set of 34C Nat. or Enh. as a default set.

I had used an enhanced default female mesh before.  What I found was that it did not alter many of those really great custom formal meshes.  So, when my sim went out on a date, she went from a large C to a small B or A.

Even if the outfit uses the enhanced default, sometimes it doesn't look right because it was designed for a different mesh.

That's another factor as well that I hadn't thought of... most custom clothing is made for the default size, so it won't work with a larger default... well, it'll work, but it'll look odd.

I agree that current default is fine, but if you're going to make defaults available I would suggest a Nat34C and 36" hip since 34C is the average in my country.  However, it would probably be better if the people who requested would post their opinion and keep new default seperate for those who won't want to use it.

Warlokk I would say to ignore the "replacement" idea all togather. When I'm making a sim (and I just completed my 23rd favorite playmate), I ignore the defaults. In my case, I made a set of skins using your meshes with a medium skin tone, different shapes of pubic hair trims, and nipples. This let me have more variety in building a playmate.

You should probably keep the current default.

I too think the current default is fine as it is.

gphoenix-- my hi-res defaults are built directly from the base Maxis models, with no size change whatsoever... so you must have a larger default replacement installed.

I've closed out the poll, I've pretty much decided I'm not going to be doing any default replacements other than the base size I've already done... it would just cause more problems than it's worth.

The B cups aren't even worth downloading for defaults.
