  1. AND... scrapped half of 2B!!! Necessity is mother of invention... At least, that was what Frank Zappa said... then he named his kids Moon Unit and Dweezil, so go figure. 32 bit TS3, and limits on size of Sim CAS parts, made it impossible to make 2B's garments as accessory, as I had intended. Also, unfortunately, apparently Oniki never envisioned FemmeBots, or the need for items labeled left garter accessory to remove for woohoo anyway. EA has a total limit on a lot in CAS. One thing that happens is that a Sim's everything is squeezed onto one image for game referencing. More accessories, and it makes images for each item smaller and smaller to fit. This cause texture detail loss, and the 2B accessory garments looked like crap!!! You see this on her chest. A while ago, I determined the need to make bots using the one piece body, and use a "no bottom" blank to fill that slot, so EA doesn't attach random legs. I honestly debated using the slot and converting JoshQ's and my shoes and boots for bots. Glad I did not. So I am working to make her outfit as bot CAS bottom. If this works, it will allow me to actually make garments for the 2 BERT models. Fingers and eyes crossed!
  2. Games without preset goals can be a challenge. Although, the field is somewhat open, depending on interests and mods to suit. It can be as being a child and make your Sim a prince or princes, good or evil, etc. I have vampires, demons who kill other Sims! Of course my FemmeBots!!! Kinky World has a few options aside from woohoo, although it tends to try to dominate. I wish it modular, as Nraas mods are. It has drug dealing, grow your own, prostitutes, run a brothel, the high school options, most use existing EA functions to some extent. For me, it is a bit of "dress my dolls". TS4 uses preset swatches. I can choose colors, patterns, etc in TS3. Also, many enjoy "open world". My Sims can walk or jog from one place to another, ride a horse or drive. My understanding is TS4 does similar to TS1 when Sims leave their lot... a screen for traveling, then they are there. Biggest problem with 3 is the 32 bit. What seems to lack most with 4 is they don't use the 64 bit, and it could probably run on 32 bit with all the restrictive measure they took to prevent the lag and crashes from an over stuffed TS3. ) And Mac 64 bit is an Origin download only.
  3. Things go well with most current projects... of course, there remains my terrible habit of getting an.... Ooooo SHINY!!! Where was I? Oh yeah, I will be playing, and testing things, then get a new idea, about a new piece, or how to improve one that I thought was almost ready to share. Currently, it is the latter. I made a conversion of the 2B outfit to FemmeBot a while ago, but was never quite happy with how I made her, so never uploaded. Recently, I returned to the A2 FemmeBot project, and after about 7 different meshes and sets of textures, think I have something. Thought is to upload 2B and A2 together, so THAT 2B has been part of the A2 testing, and seemed lacking. Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.............. A top to bottom makeover, and experimenting with accessory garments again. The WIP results are extremely promising! A FemmeBot 2B body (boots are attached), and accessory top, skirt and under garment. The body mesh is a bit of experimenting as well. Small details, but the leg straps are made to appear as to squeeze the leg, and the buckle is now a 3d part. Also "enhanced" her legs and butt a little (Not too much, I also use sliders). ))) Hmmm... think I'll have to update the Sim 2B garment bottom! Next shot shows that I need to work on fixing the pattern textures on her chest and back, as well as bone painting between her boobs.
  4. Are there any games made in the last 20 yrs that don't? Dev announces game... modders plan sex mods... dev finally releases game... modders make sex mods... The End.
  5. @Doublezero, so after 1 1/2 years, have you played any Sims? Certainly, TS4 has several good woohoo mods, probably better than TS3, but as @JoshQ said, 4 just isn't really that fun from what I hear. TS3 really does run okay with a few helper mods. IF you can keep CC to a minimum (I can't ), also helps, and I'm sure your machine can handle things.
  6. I saw @Kendo 2's post, and the reply was something about LL getting spam or some other garbage, generating from a few places, and that is their attempt to block it. Don't know. A few times, I logged in and cot some cloudfire message, but it went thru in a few seconds or so. I use Chrome with DuckDuck browser. Don't know versions. Happened a few times when I had Chrome browser also.
  7. I have never heard of this, but imagine they could do something to make you need to side step. Anyone actually ever read the entire EULA? I sure did... NOT. I have seen a lot of things saying, "Don't use for (this or that)", including porn, +18, etc. Still, unless you play online thru Origin, as mentioned, how would they know what you do? I went full disk recently, so nothing I worry about. It is a hit or miss deal these days. I completed my TS3 collection by buying used disks on Amazon. I stuck to "very good" condition description, and the disks were clean, and most were much less than half price of new. The key is to get a base game disk that is pre-Origin (hit or miss), as it won't require that you install that garbage, and go online to start installation. After that, even EP's or SP's that ARE Origin, will install to the pre-Origin base game. If the disk cover says Origin anywhere on it, it's Origin. Older disk covers only had EA on them. EDIT: OY! If you do go full disk at some point, you will need the super patch, which patches to 1.67. Only thing I really notice is no pigeons.
  8. I saw something similar on DeviantArt.com. I think the polycount may be unworkable for TS3.
  9. This was shared with me by Dailycard on LL. Looks like an interesting way to make garments... I have to try it, BUT, also in the tutorial is using quad remesh to greatly increase polycount, which may not work so well with TS3. But, people that make items for other games that will support the higher polycounts may find this useful... I know little about it at this point, as I still have not had time to watch the full tutorial.
  10. Sorry I missed this. Hmmm... It is pretty basic. Unzip the file and drop the package into your Mods folder. It's only enabled for Everyday, Formalwear, Career, ValidForMaternity and ValidForRandom. I enabled for random, as it's not an outlandish dress, and can work as random. You did unzzip the file? And the dress is for TS3, not TS4.
  11. A pity that my husband cannot sing... but when this comes on, he does anyway! Like 5 mins ago in the car. It's sweet!
  12. I have a question about moving content within the site. I currently have 3 blog pages set up. 2 are basically to repost my older content, and been posting newer content thru the regular downloads section. What I wanted to know is, is there a way to move content from regular downloads to a specific blog page, or just repost (double post) those items to appropriate page? My FemmeBots more than the other items, are a novelty that I want to display in one place, especially as there are a few changes in their format.
  13. View File LS_FemmeBot MotokoKusanagi Set LadySmoks presents... FemmeBot Motoko Kusanagi... "The Major" from Ghost in the Shell!!! This is another model conversion of an XPS model from DeviantArt.com by Bringess here. She comes with bot body, bot hair and accessory gun. Bot parts found in Plumbot CAS via EP11 bot station or Nraas MC. She is a Plumbot, so EP11 is required. Gun found in Sim CAS accessories/ bracelets, and can be used with any Sim. Her outfit is NOT recolorable... her hair is, with one color channel. She is an AX model skinjob, so the AX head is highly recommended here. No Bottom is required, found in Plumbot CAS legs. Follow link to my bot shop below if you do not have this. Kinky World and sexbot trait chip recommended. FemmeBot instructions, links to sliders I use and other FemmeBot models can be found at The LadySmoks Bot Shop. I hope you like her!!! Submitter LadySmoks Submitted 07/23/2022 Category Clothing

  15. Anyone who has been downloading anything I have made for a while, probably knows of my incredibly bad habits of being horrifyingly S L O W !!! One of, if not the longest running on again, off again, on again (ummm... maybe 3 or 4 years?) projects is Priyatna... pleasant in Russian language. Priyatna is my af... and tf top and bottom nude replacement project, for both default and non-default. Bottoms are easi(er), as they can just be dropped in and they work. Bone paint has been one of the bigger issues. I have been getting better at it, and have learned a few new things, thanks to JoshQ, and will soon be testing a freshly weight painted bottom. Tops are another animal! Probably 99% of TS3 players use CmarNYC's female tops with morphing nipples. On the slightly technical side, those are what are called "geom based sliders". Most sliders are "bone based", which means they use bone weights to alter the mesh. Fairly generic. Geom sliders move the individual vertices, so when you alter the vertices in certain ways, those sliders no longer work... So, the trick is to change the basic top mesh, and still have the sliders recognize the vertices, so the sliders will work. Or, make new sliders to match the new mesh, which I am not able to do... yet. Despite everything, I have a new top mesh in game testing that is very promising. Both of Cmar's nipple sliders work. This mesh has a somewhat more natural breast shape, and better bone painting. The nipples themselves have a softer transition, and do not look like pencil erasers... although some may prefer that. Keep your fingers crossed. I have several other projects on the front burners, but this one is simmering nicely. Ultimately, I hope to be able to make a high poly top, with much smoother breasts, but as increasing polycount of the mesh would then require new nipple sliders, which I have had no luck making, that is on indefinite hold, until I have time to mess with geom sliders again. (((
  16. The Sims is a "simulation" game, right? So, it seems natural that it would simulate even the parts of real life that we all find a bit annoying... Like BOTH phones ringing in the middle of a long awaited woohoo session!!!
  17. Just be glad they did it back then. Today, would be $100 Trillion and take 60 years! Of course, only $25 Million would be going to build the dam, the rest would be for delta smelt preservation and solar panels!
  18. Continue to learn new things! Well, new to ME anyway!!! Sorry about so many delays in reloading older content. I continue to see something... OOOO SHINY!!!!!!! So, as I am in the middle of so many projects, with nothing getting finalized, I learn new things, and dust off a project that I shelved in August 2021. Well, the Altera Fate (or is it Fate Altera?) project was... is, one of those foreign models that I converted to TS3... crudely. She was pretty good, but not worthy of sharing. I recently dusted her off and began applying many of the new things I have learned. First thought, was to make her a "skin job". OY! Altera is a FemmeBot, as I forgot to mention that. So, I moved and resized parts of her UV map (how the images that show her garments are arranged in the picture)... resized and rearranged so the parts that are skin, will align with normal Sim CAS skin textures. Easy part! Since then, a lot of bone weight painting... that is what matches to animations skeleton (rig) and how Sims move... also how many sliders work. There have been MANY changes. This includes her hair. It is a cartoonish appearing hair, but that is what came with the model, sooooo...... I have also learned new bone painting techniques that have greatly improved the Altera hair... which I resized to fit the AX skinjob head. ))) Of the bots, I have also begun final testing... or what I hope will be final testing of 3 other models... 2B, Motoko Kusanagi, and one I named Raven, which is my original mesh, Gantz suit. There is also one new hair, and hopefully, I will get back to a couple of other bot hairs that were shown in BERT pics. After these, I will try to get a few more Sim garments done and finalized. It's HOT! Try to stay cool!!!
  19. In first video, you can see the old water line. And EVERYONE with an 8 yo (or a manchild husband) knows that Hoover Dam was actually built to contain Megatron!!!
  20. Not even that separated... Hey... wanna gay Superman? Fine, I don't care really. Just not my son's Superman from THIS reality. Have the gay guy with pink tights fly in from universe x, and join in to save the day. I can deal with that kind of meddling, but don't have him somehow become the star of our universe and save our Superman, just for the sake of the gay guy bailing out the straight one. Same with women. Don't turn Captain America into a woman, or have the woman Capt, be so fabulous that she has to save the guy who has been doing it for decades.
  21. Problem with "multiverse" is that we inhabit THIS one, where our reality is pretty well set. Fine, introduce a cross dimentional traveler type of woke facsimile, as such. But to take a character that is older than 99% of those involved in making a movie, and woke that character and expect no pushback is pure arrogance. But... isn't that what wokers are? And the founders of Marvel... that's why I began my rant as I did! Did Disney have Stan Lee killed so they could woke his creations? And as you say, a story... It isn't about the story, just shoving woke down your throat. Storylines are so thin that they almost aren't there. It's like a Michael Bey jump to the blowing stuff up before we even know who anyone is... only with a woke recreation of an old standard. We watched the first Ironman recently. Everyone already knew who Tony Stark is, but they took time to bring his character as Tony Stark into focus... BEFORE he was Ironman, and a storyline behind how and why he became Ironman. Perhaps not step by step from the comics (I never read them), but there was a level of character creation. We saw him build the suit, test the suit and crash and burn in the suit! He didn't just make it, put it on and fly as he had been doing it his entire life. We need a woman to direct this movie. OY! Like politics, why not the best person for the job?
