Face Templates - 2008-05-08 - No Update - New Links

[amileegirl]

Just a heads up that I tried downloading Face template 02 but its not coming up for download, just an error page saying it is not available.

[Gwill]

Pescado, can you host these files, so we won't have this problem every few weeks?

[OpiumGirl]

Is there anyone who might be willing to reupload 02 at some point? Since, as mentioned a couple of posts up, it's not there anymore.
It'd be much appreciated. Thanks!

[Gwill]

I've had to compress it to make the file rar small enough for Pescado's rules, but I assume it still works.

[OpiumGirl]

Great, thanks very much for the re-upload.

[Nailati]

No update, but new links in the OP. I've also uploaded the incomplete, adult-only faces, should you want to use them, even though you probably shouldn't.

Thanks for uploading #2, Gwill. I was off on Planet Nails and I completely forgot about it.

ARISE FROM THE DEAD, OH THREAD OF AWESOMENESS! CALL FORTH THY MISTRESS THAT SHE MAY HEED MY PLEAS (and bribes)...

Dear wonderful fabulous beloved Nailati, I have two proposals for you:

1) You mentioned a while back:

Okay, but seriously, dude, dog, dude, I'm ready to whack these into shape now. See, I had this commission thing? Where I did some crap, kinda like this crap, but then someone gave me money? I know, it was weird. And I would have called, but stuff happened, and you know how it is.

So I was wondering, how much would I have to donate to you through paypal to lay claim to your time to complete ONE of the beta templates? Or if I can afford it, more than one. I realize that real life happens and time is money. I want your time, I will give you what money I can afford. Anyone else willing to help buy her time away from real life? Of course results are free for all on this thread then.

2) If you absolutely do not want to do any more templates for a few months or so:

Y'all are free to take the faces and do with them as you will. A while back I got a pm from someone who wanted to know if they could make some templates based on my #2, and I'll state here publicly what I told them: absolutely. If you use my faces as a starting point for your own, I would very much appreciate credit, but you do what you want.

Would you accept my humble offerings of adapting the BETA templates to the other ages so they look related? So you could tweak them if anything is horrible and template-ize them? But I'd much rather have your original stuff... unless my giving you some templates to tweak would inspire you to rework them to truly meet your standards? Pretty please with a cherry on top?

[Nailati]

I like your attitude. However, I couldn't accept money for this. I'm waiting for an official announcement that TS3 is delayed before I re-install TS2, so in the meantime I totally encourage you to work on the other ages if you'd like. As far as making the faces into templates, I don't have a way to run SimPE at the moment, but I'm sure volunteers could be found either here or in #grah.

[Jelenedra]

Supposedly it was delayed until the Summer. June or July? Is that a long enough delay? I love your templates.

TS3 Press Release: New Ship Date for The Sims 3

[Nailati]

God damn it.

[spacewolfcub]

So... I'll start making the other ages? Let's say I'll start working on 26 and submit it for your approval before making a template. Which I will also submit for posting.

Aaaaand you could start from 1, 3, or 4? (The other end). Then we'll meet in the middle and have it done definitely before you uninstall Sims 2 again? :-)

Or if you think you'd rather do it all by yourself I'm happy to wait.

[Nailati]

Go ahead. My powers of procrastination know no bounds.

[miros]

I'd be willing to contribute to the bribes too.  If you won't take money, how about chocolate chip cookies?

(My summoning spells are limited; no cool text messages pertaining to Necromancy.)

Thank you so much for these face templates   Are we to understand that since The Sims 3 is out, you are abandoning this project?

Yes, and unless something can be done about the horrifying sliders in TS3, I'm going to stick to building from now on.

[J. M. Pescado]

Something can be done, and we've done it, yes. You can yank on them until your head implodes.

[Nailati]

Helpful, but insufficient. The types of changes that can be made are the problem, ultimately, not the magnitudes.

Well, mostly, the main missing thing is the lack of ability to edit the forehead and stuff, but that is more Delphy's department. The capability exists, though.

Thanks for letting us know .  Good luck.
