Though not active on LL, I keep tabs. I find it necessary to make note of a thread by Nonsequitur. Cannot ignore it! I know that he has logged into LL many times since I left... I guess to be certain the coast was clear, as cowards do.

 He begins is little whine, fully referencing me, knowing I am not there to respond, and continues to do so in several of his comments.

He whines about being called out for theft. His last was minor, but was the final straw. In the past, I simply never bothered to share my work after he would make a sloppy version and upload a couple of days after stealing my idea. Last was one I posted a few pics and said that "this is a WIP..." And a few days later... there would be his version.

I could not believe that he claimed to have mentored me!!! JoshQ was, and always will be my mentor. I opened a thread asking how to make open bottomed garments, and JoshQ replied. That thread continued for quite a while, with my questions and JoshQ's answers. That would be mentoring. Some I got, some no... some were face slap 1 year later. Nonsequitur joined that thread. Perhaps suggesting things, but none that I used, as the results were... not so good.

During time on that thread, is when the stealing began. I posted a Blender image of a male kit I was working on, to show Josh. A few days later, Nonsequitur uploaded a kilt. I never bothered to upload mine, as it felt like people would think I was stealing his ideas. So, my next project was an outfit to upgrade my Harley Quinn (LOVE HER!) I made the mistake of showing Josh what my plans were. This time, Nonsequitur actually announced that he was going to make a Harley outfit also... and chose the same that I was working on. 

I felt competetive, and thought to show off the multiplier I was working on. Nonsequitur copied the image, used it for his project, uploaded it, and PM'd him about stealing it, actually BITCHED that he had to resize it so he could use it!

Believe it or not, he was not the main reason I left LL, but certainly a contributing factor. Now he whines about drama queens and trolls (he was listed as one of MY followers, so he could basically stalk me on the threads, I guess), and how he is not motivated to create, because I called him out.

I saw that both @Kendo 2 and @ritualclarity had posted on that thread. Both, referencing aspects of "trolls" and how they operate... some, to make a seemingly vague post, but obvious to one being talked about (in this case, believing it to be behind her back), as I was the only person I know of to remove all of her content from LL in the passed week, which Nonsequitur referenced.

That is my RANT!!! I will go breathe now, and enjoy some chilled vodka!

To anyone who may follow me here from LL, 

Thank you for supporting me. I am definitely taking a break from making anything for a while. I plan to eventually get set up here, and reopen The LadySmoks Boutique in the coming weeks. It is always difficult moving, as there are some at LL who I already miss.

Sorry for spamming, the good news are this was my last upload of 2020. The bad, not good, awful news are I still have lots, lots and lots of stuff to share for next year, after I take a breath for a moth or two.

Friendly reminders:

• Every single piece of CC made under my name is free, forever. Avoid scams
• I only “exist” in two places: Loverslab and NSFWmods. No twitter, no facebook, no discord, no tumblr, etc
• No rules, no tou, no nonsense. Like my stuff? Download it. Want to modify it or even port it to other engine? Don’t even ask me, do whatever you want

Quick tip to accelerate baking times in Blender 2.83

Go to ‘Tiles’ and change the value to the resolution you’re baking into, in my particular case 2048x2048 (if you want to go higher be sure your GPU has enough VRAM, mine has 2GB). 

Optional: activate ‘Adaptive sampling’ and change the threshold to ’0.1’ this will generate some faint noise, how visible or desirable this is will depend on your particular case.

Using both options my times went from 2-3 minutes per bake to less than 1, it sounds insignificant but because I’m doing several tests at a time any reduction helps, of course better hardware might get quicker results.

What about reducing rendering samples? In my tests I noticed a reduction in image quality so I’m leaving the samples alone.

Where to learn how to use Blender?

Well, everybody and their grandmas have already uploaded hundreds of videos on youtube, but I believe CG Boost have some good tutorials that teach the basics and then some. From there you can go to Grant Abbitt, Blender Guru and Jayanam and the rest is just practice.

So I was watching a video about ‘non-destructive modeling’ which is a technique that makes heavy use of Blender’s modifiers (for example ‘subdivision’), the advantage is you can make complex shapes from simple ones which saves times and makes editing very easy.

 I “learned” to model the old and hard way so I’m almost used to the pain but I gave it a try anyway:

 One downside is that the result is high-poly BUT because it consist of neat face loops reducing the polycount shouldn’t be a problem (‘decimate’ works pretty fine). And of course it still needs the insoles, feet, uv map, morphs, bones, textures, etc. so I think I will have to use “destructive modeling” to complete this one.

Everything was so difficult, no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t make sense of even the most basic of concepts. That frustration was the fuel to keep trying, the process was painfully slow but the learning experience made it worthful. And after all the problems -past, present and future-, I don’t feel like stopping.

Thanks to Loverslab / NSFWmods’ admins and the people who shared their insights, created the tools and paved the road for the rest of us. And finally to EA, your heroics shall never ever be forgotten…

Probably I’m only going to have time for one release for the next month:

When I decided to get into modding I chose one simply rule: make stuff you’re going to use.

Last year I bought Sims 4 and a couple of expansions and I was committed to port my CC, there’s a couple of them already on the download section. But then I started to play the game less and less to the point it became a chore, I was hoping the latest expansion would allow me to regain some interest but it didn’t. I also tried several mods but the result was the same, so I’m abandoning TS4 for good, my apologies to the people who were left waiting.

I’ll continue to make CC for Sims 3 under the same condition: anyone is free to modify it, no questions asked.

Brace yourself for a bunch of stuff, before or after xmas (26-27ish).

I’m making CC at a fraction of my usual pace because I have very little free time, probably I will wait til before year’s end for my next releases

Ok,little brother i've lightened my posts on this site and require you to delete my account,forthwith.

The thread in question is nothing more then a misogynistic,racist,anti-humanist troll thread.That it is tolerated says a lot about the trash running this site.

Hehe,my request to start a anti-theist thread was sarcasm,that none of you identified it as such is not surprising.
