New peggy hairs. They doesn't replace anything

I have downloaded (and used) one or two Peggy hairs, though sometimes I'll download and then discover that it doesn't look as good in-game.  I haven't encountered anything like what Dragon Slave posted, but I don't download most of her stuff anyway.  I've gotten much better results from XMS, and raon, and even rose.  Plus, every time I download a Peggy hair I have to spend ten minutes rebinning everything with Wardrobe Wrangler.


Ugh I forgot about that. She never binned her shit. Ever. Even well after it was discovered how to do it and there were tools available.

And yeah that's another thing, I binned my damned TS2 hair, unlike Peggy.

Lucky for her, she doesn't have to worry about that in this game so her laziness won't cause a problem, at least in that regard.

Dragon Slave:
Peggy has been binning for a while, she's just colorblind.  Some advice for binners -  look for the ones called "coffee".  That's the brown that always ends up in the black bin.

It's funny because people tried to pull that shit in the Elder Scrolls community swiping Poser hairs and converting them and they got called on it in a minute and ripped a new one. In this community if you do it you become a "featured artist".

Ever go to a 3D model site like Turbosquid? You'll see how many Sims 2 creators actually aren't.

It's not a big deal, they just want their Sims to look good,

If all you're doing is making clothes and taking pictures, it's no big deal.  A lot of creators don't play the game themselves, they just make things for it... which is fine... but it helps if they remember that people who download their stuff, especially those who pay for it, might want to play as well as use.  That's when the impracticalities become an issue.  Need I bring up Chaz and his celebrity face photoshopped skintones?  Who wants makeup tattooed on the face, or a skintone that only effects one lifestage?

And it's easy to criticize, but try to make you own hair and share it, then we'll se.

I know how much effort it takes to close gaps.  It's as simple as grabbing the faces and pulling them over the hole.

Why would any normal person want hair with gaps, that is stiff and unmoving, and looks even more unnatural than EA's selection?

People are desperate for variety.  I remember all the bullcrap I downloaded when cc for TS2 was still in infancy.  It saw it's out of my download folder as soon as better things began coming out, but the cleanup was tedious, and I'd rather not have to do it again. >_>

You could also try being patient. I just wait till the good stuff starts arriving. Hell, at this point, the game is still being fixed, why would I be too worried about pixel wigs and clothes? I do download the odd thing - tedw removing the weird pineapple spray behind a style, that sort of thing.

Yeah, I've gone back to TS2 until things settle down with TS3.  It's not fun having to be reminded at every turn how much this game fails in the wake of it's own potential.  Every now and then I get the urge to switch CD's and play, but then I remember something that irked me the last time and the urge goes away.  I keep checking the progress with mods and content however, downloading things for when I do start to play again.

Meh I am a download whore but I know the day is coming when there's enough quality stuff out there that I can actually be selective and still have variety. Then I will have to do some spring (or more like fall/winter) cleaning and clear a lot of it out. Or I can just do what I did with TS2 and throw it all the hell out and start from scratch just getting quality things that I like.

I know a lot of people hate the installer and refuse to use but to me I like it. I like that I can tell what is custom content and what isn't and that I can look at it in the CAS or the design tool and delete it on the spot if I don't like it.

Installing stuff the MTS2 in a package format via Delphy's installer is annoying. I downloaded a ton of patterns from MTS2 and I'll be honest, I have no flipping clue which are EA and which are modder created. I can go to the directory folder and delete those package files but that doesn't really help me because I can't see them to tell which ones they are.
