QuetzaDrake as a sim in The Sims 2

[pouar]

Hey, I created QuetzaDrake as a sim for The Sims 2. The meshes i got from modthesims.info, although the ears and tail were originally 2 separate accessories, and the sims 2 has no way of combining 2 accessories into one. I had to actually do it myself by extracting the meshes with SimPE (a modding tool for The Sims 2 that allows you to mod pretty much every aspect of the game) put them together in milkshape3d (a 3d modeling tool for modding) then re-import it with SimPE and then create a clone of an accessory then link that to the mesh, also when i put the mesh together i had to extract the joints and assign the meshes to the ones they need to to get the accessory working right. The skin tone is a modified skin tone i got from modthesims.info, basically what i did was change the color of it in Photoshop, i used the same texture for the ears and tail.
here's the link to the installer (created it using Nullsoft Scriptable Install System, great alternative to commercial and proprietary products like InstallShield)

I also created a Sims2Pack but it's larger because it's uncompressed and it takes longer to load because the rest of the game has to load first when using Sims2Pack files

Pretty freaking impressive. I used to fiddle around with sims 2, but I never liked working with meshes, I just made new clothes since in the old system, they are 2d textures rather than 3d meshes.

Also, off topic, can you put your signature under a spoiler? They're seriously taking up half of the space on my screen.

Sure, I forgot that not everyone's PC monitor has the ability to have 1600x1200 screen resolution.

Well there's my uncanny valley based nightmare fuel for the month.

Come on guys, no Sims Character has ever climbed out of Uncanny Valley territory...

Ya did a nice job on this.

Well I never played the sims 2 so I wouldn't know that.

I just made a much cooler looking installer for this. Here's a screenshot.

That's my avatar. I put it on almost all my programs. Kinda like when a company puts their logo on their product.
