we are restless things

welcome to our collab!!! bayoubashsims found this set of fins and lure by abufi and we both wanted anglerfish, so here we are! i learned how to make accessories for this LOL. i converted the meshes and bayoubashsims made the textures. they come in 8 colors and you can choose EITHER accessory OR BV jewelry. the BV jewelry will stay on in the shower and they are in the misc section with the facial piercings. they are for all ages and genders! you can't have both versions in your game because they use the same files.

UPDATE: 2/19/24: epi fixed the seams on these and edited the mod file to use the same textures for male and female, so now the file is smaller. you can find their version here, but my files have been updated with the new textures/ mod base in case you wanted the old hair/ scale color combos, as epi's are different. tysm epi!



i used the tattooer to convert weepingsimmer's nenps fish scales to put on midge's mermaid overlay for their lifestate. there are some noticeable seams on this HOWEVER they don't bother me because i will just edit them in screenshots. i made this for personal use but i'm sharing in case anyone wants them. the seams will probably bother you! if they do and you want to fix them, here are the textures all ready to go so you can get the highest quality version. bc i'm not gonna fix them lol. the face scales are matching layerable blushes. the fins and tops are from almighty_hat for all ages but toddler, genders, and even androgyny shape.

here's a set of basic shoeswaps for AF. i love these slingbacks by bunhead and i think they're perfect for businesswear. i edited the shape a bit to be similar to io's edit of bunhead's pointed heels (like on her tristana skirt v2). 

most of these outfits/ bottoms had loafers, some had sentates lilith pumps or t-bars. i think sentate makes some of the best content we have but i prefer pointier heels to chunky, and i just don't want t-bars with everything LOL. so this was born. 

included are sentate's lilith trousers and some of skell's recolors (i left out the colors i didn't feel i would ever use), trapping's separated version of sentate's 'bella hostess' skirt in original black, io's edit of memento's pantsuit, deedee's io/AL bottom only dress mashup, aweeshie's recolors of the AL dress, and tomwood1906's edit the maxis garden club suit. numbered texture pngs are left in each folder as swatches so you can easily delete. that will bring the folder size down considerably so make sure you delete those images before putting in your game.

i like these blazers by skell if you need any business-like tops!

40 recolors (actions by furbyq, alfredaskew, and aelia) of nabila's edit of bruno's 'dazzledust' eyeshadow (sims graveyard link, 'hypertronic superstar'), but i blended the alpha with tea-leaf's 'santa fe' eyeshadow alpha to make more colors work better on more skintones as well as to keep it from going up past the eyebrow. the swatch is out of order (the individual ones in the .rar are not, so please reference those if deleting outside of bodyshop).

happy new year! here's an extra treat for new year's, unrelated to the 12 days of xmas :)

i looked into converting sentate's beautiful new flavia dress, but i ended up just making 4 different versions using the textures on different meshes instead.

first mesh is deedee's halima conversion (originally by ice-creamforbreakfast), remapped to fit the textures. this is the most similar mesh to sentate's original. 

second is a shortened version of this, with memento's conversion of madlen's febris heels. every dress has black shoes, but included all the shoe textures from platinumaspiration's recolors and the shoes are NOT repo'd so you can easily import whichever shoe color you want into simpe if you want something other than black.

third is a one shoulder version on deedee's josephine mesh, remapped to fit the textures.

fourth is a shorter version of the josephine dress, with some sequin booties. i couldn't find any for ts2 that i liked for this dress, so i edited the shoes from nouk's knee boots (i'm calling them the 1989 boots since they were inspired by the ones from that set of the eras tour). some dresses in this set have matching boots, one of the reds has gold, and the rest have silver or white. i included the booties textures too for easy import into simpe if you want to change the color of the shoes for a particular recolor.


all dresses are repositoried to a master texture file so you only have one set of dress textures in your game!

which brings me to my next point... i also included the XML files for the dresses, so if you want to age/ gender convert, or put the textures on another mesh that has appropriate mapping, you can just use the XML file to repository them to this master texture file and include it with your download. this set comes in all 35 of sentate's colors, and the swatches are in the XMLs folder for easy deletion (the swatch numbers correspond to the XML file names for creators).

i also included the dress textures in dds format so you can just directly import them into simpe at the highest quality if you need them for something and don't want to repo it/ do the whole set.

lots of hotel clutter i needed for my story. i did ats4's full luggage set (laptop case, trolley case, suitcase, with open, laying, and standing versions-- textures are repositoried to the laying versions). i also did some items from her hotel set, which you can see in chapter two of my story ;) you get the trolley, the key, they keycard, the little bell, the safe, and the door stop. all deco/sculpture for $16. my object guids are randomized.

you also get some linen, tiny circle patterned, and basic "hotel" patterned recolors of these repositoried build your own curtains. meshes included.

i also included 2 clutter items specifically for this chapter, which are the yuxi boots hermia wears as clutter in various positions, and deedee's rachel flannel top (using mdp's separated mesh) positioned to be tossed over an armchair. the mesh is kind of goofy but it works for screenshots and haven't seen much in that vein so i'm sharing it in case someone can use it. comes with recolors by pforest, deedee, mdp.

everything is in a collection for both residential and community which you can get here / alt. icon included in the rar so you know what to look for.

my first set of maxis lip edits was on one of three textures (at least, i think three were only three lol). these are on another one of those textures (same base as the 'sioux' color), blended with bruno's britney lips and using pooklet's alpha so everyone can wear all the colors and using the same color actions as usual, mostly by me and the last 8 by trapping.

someone asked for this dress with io's sentate heels, so here we are with ice-creamforbreakfast's halima dress, converted to ts2 by deedee, shortened by mdp, shoeswapped and converted to tf and ef by me. they only come in the original swatches, and are all repositoried to a master texture file. pretty sure the AF file has a preg morph, mdp's usually do.

this was my first age conversion where the outfit was clingy to the body so please forgive the flaws 🤣 i did my best and i did them manually. lol. there is a little bit of clipping when they walk and i couldn't fix it, sorry.

**as you can see on the preview, the mapping on the heels causes them to have a little line around the ankle if you use really detailed skins (i use alfredaskew's). maxis match skins like io's or lilith's or leh's don't really have this issue, and a lot of semi realistic skins don't have it either because that area of the ankle is purposefully undetailed. i like both my skin selection and the heels too much to care, and just blur it on screenshots LOL.

UPDATE 4.25.24: changed the heels from io's original conversion to my edit of pforest's edit so that they have correct mapping on the ankles (no more ankle seam, and you get your skin's ankle detaling). these heels may clip slightly with the feet in more extreme poses but i did my best to ensure they look right 99% of the time. download links have been updated, but if you have already downloaded, you only need to replace the meshes!

UPDATE 1.1.2024: i was able to fix the clipping when they walk! and i also have since learned how to use wsos (lol) so i redid the elder and teen meshes. please redownload and replace the meshes if you downloaded this before jan 1st, 2024!
