Any Decent Custom Hair?
laylei:
I really like WDS's hair. Of course, it's a paysite, but some are free, and they look very nice in my game (to me, at least.) I also use Sim Cribbling's hair a LOT.

re: learning 3D programs
I'm a firm believer that anyone can do it given enough time and patience and desire to learn it. Some people will pick it up faster than others of course, but that doesn't mean those of us who look at it and go 'HUH? ??? ' can never learn it. It's totally cliche, but if I can learn it, anyone can. Believe me when I say I was NOT one of those people who picked it up quickly. I used to think I would never be able to learn to use those 3D programs and make or modify meshes and I tried and gave up many times, but I kept going back to it and eventually now I'm at the point while not anywhere near an expert, I can make some things with it.
The best thing I can tell you is read all the tutorials you can and just keep at it and even if you're totally frustrated or intimidated keep trying.
As far as what program is best, I learned 3DS Max because it was really the only program I could mod for Morrowind with which was what I was interested in doing at the time. I haven't ever bothered to learn Milkshape when I went over to making TS2 files other than to use it enough to convert files back and forth between Max. If I were starting out learning specifically for TS2 though Milkshape probably makes the most sense. All the 3D programs are pretty much intimidating and confusing when you start out IMHO. I've never seen what I would consider and easy to learn user friendly 3D program, but if someone knows when let me know!
Once you get the controls down though, that is by far the hardest part since you can do anything if you don't know how to navigate the controls.
Brynne:
Yeah, all those controls! Like you said, it has more controls than a 747. And it flew right over my head just like a 747, too!
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, I couldn't even do anything for Sims1 apart from rugs (with the rugomatic!) so Sims2 is just not on for me - and I can't afford a decent paint program, even if I could work out how to use the darn things!
Oddysey:
If in need of a paint program, google GIMP. Has all the necessary functionality of Paint Shop, but is free. Open source is a wonderful thing.
I learned Animation Master last year. I'm not bad at working with it; my problem is that I never know what to do. If I already have a project, sure, but just doing something off the top of my head is hard.
