Title: More Awful Than You! September: WTF?
Post by: Gwill on 2007 September 03, 20:36:35
Let's have a slightly open competition this month.  The theme is What the FUCK!
Please nominate objects, accessories, clothing, makeup, building materials and any other object that just makes you go WTF?.  We want to see stuff with no purpose, things with no value, things you can't imagine why anyone would put in the game.  It doesn't have to be ugly, it doesn't have to be broken, just as long as it makes you tip your head sideways and frown.

Just as a source of inspiration, I'll mention this gem (which I deem disqualified since it was among the winners of May's competition):
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/0903/snowgray/duckeatsyou.jpg)

Now go out and baffle us!

Judges will be shanghaied in the usual fashion, and rules may or may not get made up along the way.

Judges so far: mitchellcjs

I wish to nominate the Period Hack (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=177932). An oldie but a goodie, which spawned a massive menstruation thread in RL.

It deserves nomination for a number of reasons, not the least of which is this gem in the updates section:

The tampon controller is now more aggressive in making a sim change her tampon.

What girl doesn't want aggressive tampon insertion?

I'd like to nominate this lovely item by FeeEssen. Apparently it is a sugar bag (http://modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=237791) whatever one of those is. I think it is a badly coloured-in plumbob myself.

This isn't just an ugly, weird, uncomfortable and slightly impossible-looking bathroom. It's a pay ugly, weird, uncomfortable and slightly impossible-looking bathroom! (It's peggysims2, by juice, first page of member bathrooms.)

The bathroom isn't the nomination, though - just the rug. I mean, look at it. I'm sure many people have one of those rugs in their home - you know, the one where the corner always folds over, or the middle bunches up, and it annoys and/or injures you whenever it does this. But why does someone want one in their game? It's not even some fancy animated rug that is flat and then trips up and kills sims who walk on it or something. It's merely a perpetually crumpled rug, and I just can't understand why :(

(The miniature bath towel would be my second nomination, though. Even if it's a hair towel, it's still pathetic! Especially in such a huge bathroom.)

When children in Germany set off for their first day in school upon entering first grade, their parents and/or grandparents present them with a big cardboard cone, prettily decorated and filled with toys, chocolate, candies, school supplies, and various other goodies. It is given to children to make this anxiously awaited first day of school a little bit sweeter.

the link is only broken because the last 3 letters are somehow unlinked; if you click on it, it cuts them off. I was able to get it to work  as well.

Nice attempt at hiding that little fumble.

I had to laugh when I got to the lower end of the Wiki entry, where they talk about the tree they used to hang the cones in and how they'd tell the children when the tree bore fruit (the cones) it meant it was time for little ones to start their first day of school.

Whee, go to school day..? Thanks, I'll stick with the "all treat, no hidden trick" holidays.

That's not useless. That's the headpiece for a minaret. Granted, it's lacking in texture, and it has been simply dumped on the floor unceremoniously, so you might not recognize it, but it has value. Just not presentation value, apparently.

Here's the original WTF that inspired this contest: The sawed off terlet (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=246758).

One word settles it all: WHY? Exactly what purpose is served by this waste of space? Why was this even approved? It's has no decorative value, all it does is showcase an inept creator's ability to saw the bottom off a mesh, something a blind chimpanzee could do, and it has no additional functionality.

I know nominating a feeEssen creation is like shooting fish in a barrel, but this is just odd looking.

Wanna have your very own "Horse transporter"?
(http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i235/vintageharmony/horsetrailer.jpg)
It appears to be a trailer attatched to only half of a pick-up truck with great big horse heads plastered on the hood and to the strange piece sticking out of the top. It is decorative only, which is just as well since half of a truck probably wouldn't tow a trailer anyway. Oh did I mention it comes complete with horse's rear?

I don't blame you. I refuse to use them and if asked I'd refuse to flush it OR gently place a basket/candle/etc on the back of it. My theory is if it hasn't got feet, it's only a decoration.

New meshes bypass the queue. They don't have to be approved, sadly. I think many of FeeEssen's items are proof of this.... Some folks are hip to this fact and will click "new mesh" in the upload wizard even for recolors and try to skate by unnoticed.

There's no reason half a truck can't tow a horse trailer. Ever pay attention to one of those big trucks on the highway? You aren't losing power or anything, because the engine is in the front. I could actually see this for a country theme. I've seen these before in real life, complete with horse's rear. And while it may seem dumb to you, IMO, it isn't CRAZY or WTF (okay, maybe the stupid horse pictures all over it, and the way the cab has 4 wheels instead of two).

Well, since there's no particularly game-valid reason to have a horse at all, they obviously exist only for movie props.

ok, so I failed to grasp the definition of WTF in this case. Though I can see the point of wanting a horse trailer as a movie prop, personally I would want said prop to attempt to look genuine otherwise I wouldn't bother. I live in a rural enough area that I see plenty of the real deal and any single horse trailers I've ever seen have always been hitched to a regular old pick-up and have been completely devoid of strange pictures.

Tired of having to stop what you're doing and run to the door to greet your guests? Now, let the Huge Psycho Head Doorman do it for you! All visitors who enter your lot will be greeted by this doorman, saving your Sim time and effort. If you have the Pets expansion, you can tell him to greet (or not greet) visiting animals too!

However, I still thought it sucked, especially since I DON'T want random people in my house bugging my sims- Eventually I will have to stop what I'm doing to go and kick them off the lot, so why not just not let them in and let them leave on their own?

Gales of laughter prompted Silly Wife to come run in here and see what was going on with me, only I couldn't talk as I was too busy dying over my free-will-off sims *squirming* in the chairs to actually turn free will back ON and allow them to quit.

..didn't help that at the time, both were neked.

I don't mind the Down's Syndrome sims, keep the skills low, teen/elder jobs, high outgoing and probably romance sims, don't make them smart, yeah, why not? I'm teaching some adults with Down's Syndrome next Wednesday and I'm looking forward to it.

Their tutor told us a funny story. Apparently they were going to do role plays and they had to each pick a different culture to portray. George argued hard for Startrek as being a culture and the tutor finally agreed. So anyway, comes the time for the play and George's contribution had metamorphosed into Dr Who. George was a dalek. He said he needed Jane to act with him, so the tutor said, 'if Jane agrees, that's fine'.

So George and Jane huddled in a corner and conferred secretly. Jane then came out ready, cradling an imaginary laser, George meanwhile stuck his arms out in front and made clutching, squeezing and grabbing motions with his hands as he pretended to be a dalek. He started to advance on Jane.

Almost too late, the tutor saw that George's hands were exactly the height of Jane's breasts and that George's grabby hands were about to find their target. 'Stop, stop' he cried. 'Thank you, that was a good play.'

Tongue rings do exist, however they are extremly rare because
1. they never stay in place, they always twist sideways, making it look incredibly goofy, especially when leaving an imprint
2. You shouldn't get tongue piercing jewelery extending over the tongue itself, because you WILL bite down on it and you WILL get chipped teeth from that over time.

Ok, I could go on and on about those. But writing essays is for high school students so a few sentences should suffice. Here goes: None of the rideables animations make contact with the mesh. I mean, the pedalling action isn't touching the pedals. Same for the handlebars. As for the skateboard, why is she doing the chicken dance/birdie dance? Surely that ain't good for her balance? I am 600% certain that a "Wheelie" doesn't exist IRL.

Those are pretty bad, but not as WTF as  FeeEssen's version (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=238996). Her's doesn't even move; it's a glorified chair. And her signature bizarre mesh and ugly colors are just so much worse, IMO.

I can haz a field day with FeeEssen's crap. The only reasonable explanation of the existance of  this set (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=235892) is that FeeEssen wants to traumatize her sim children for life.

I think the reason that people enjoy FeeEssen's and Rebecah's objects so much is because the two creators  make lots of stuff for babies/toddlers/children.  Since the Sims game doesn't have much for these age groups to do, players are STARVED for anything different, no matter how craptastic.   Rebecah's objects are sort of cute though, while FeeEssen's are just plain scary.  That table and chairs set of hers is going to give me nightmares.  Thanks a lot, Invisigoth!

rebecah deserves points, both for creativity and honesty.  Most creators don't bother showing people how bad their animations look.  She is a very talkented coder (unlike feeessen who just makes breaky chairs and potties), and people who dare to make things that look horrible to pave the way for people who refuse to release anything that isn't perfect.

The only real problem I can see with Rebekah's objects are the sim animations. Either she's taken stock animations from the game itself (like the skateboard one), or she's tried to do her own with a lot of guesswork. The real shame about it is that if she could get the animations right, these objects would be really good (well, except the wheelie - I haven't a clue what that one's about at all).

Considering how difficult it is to work with animations for the sims, I'd say she did a decent job. Most custom animations look like crap, but I see that as just one of the limits of modding for the sims. I like it when creators attempt it at all.

It's not halfassed though, is it? If you're a modder who's into code then you're not going to worry about graphics and animations. That's for someone else to work with. That's why this work is uploaded - so someone who isn't into code can take on the graphics side of things and together they can make a good product.

I don't think it's crappy, since this is really the best possible with a custom animation for the sims. Frankly, I wish more creators would try it. I'd rather see an animation that still has some quirks than an item with no animation at all. I feel like it's expecting something beyond the limits of what we can do with the game engine.

Most of the things in this thread fail bigtime at meeting the stated criteria -- especially rebecah's stuff, which is largely perfectly normal, whether you approve of her level of expertise with animation or not. (I think some of it looks worth downloading to decide whether I like it and some of it doesn't.) There's nothing WTF about children's rideable toys which mostly resemble real-world children's rideable toys. (Oh, and the "wheelie" looks EXACTLY like the picture posted by the person who requested it -- the request thread is linked right at the top of the post, it's from a video game.)

Many of the items posted thus far are also intended to be weird, and therefore serve a purpose for people who want weird neighborhoods or weird families. Some of it I've downloaded or bookmarked, because I am interested in sci-fi landscapes (eyeball tree), urban dystopia (homeless guy -- actually, I have a large collection of grungy/trashed/industrial district/high-tech but seedy/etc. content just for one project I'm toying with), goofy Knowledge Sims (couch car -- totally looks homebuilt by a crackpot inventor), and so on.

Not that I can think of a good WTF to share, mind you. Maybe if I browse around some; I know I've seen things before (besides FeeEssen, who doesn't count) that just made me say "WHY?".

I've seen classic car boots turned into interesting couches before. Those with "fins" work best.

It's the kind of furniture I enjoy looking at when I see it in other people's homes or businesses (probably few people actually have these in their homes), but don't have a desire to own and try to decorate around in my own place.

Currently on PMBD, several posters are freaked out about a pixel pirate doll toy that can "shoot" pixel smoke puffs from pixel pistols at pixel toddlers. Would that be a WTF? If so, is it the concept or the execution? Or is it because it is a pay item from TSR?

Maybe we need to better define WTFs. For me, it is a WTF that people on the BBS are clamouring for washers and dryers. If the pixel clothes don't ever get dirty, why do they need laundering? Wow, if we are lucky, Sims 3 will have a decay state coded into clothing so we'll have to do laundry in addition to every damn thing else. LOL

Eyeball sculpture FTW.

I could actually see a use for the eyeball sculpture, though.  There's a D & D legacy that is really good, and the author makes his own CC (it looks a lot better than that), but he had a Beholder sculpture that he used as a prop for one of his stories.  Photoshopped in correctly, it looked great.  The eyeball sculpture looks a bit like those aliens from *Life of Brian.*

I mentioned the TSR billboard because it seems like getting "KICK ME" tattooed across your ass, but I suppose there could be a use for that, too.

Most of these items fail as WTFs, yes. Either because they're deliberately intended as quirky or weird, or desire to emulate, even nonfunctionally, a real item. A true WTF is like that sawed-off terlet. THAT was clearly made, not as a desire to emulate any real item, but simply because some dood want to show off his utterly useless milkshake "creation" by sawing the bottom half off a Maxis terlet. It's not a technically excellent accomplishment, nor does it have any particular decorative value, because it's simply a Maxis item cut in half!

Given that explanation, while the eyeball sculpture did make me go "wtf?", I think this toilet from Sunair probably fits the bill:
(http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u194/MusicalMaven/sunairtoilet.jpg)

One word: OW!



In the clothing category, I think I have to nominate infamous Meat Slab dress from Carla Niven. (I actually made the sacrifice and put this in my game and subjected a sim to its horrors. Here is the sad truth of the dress, as previously shown at PMBD:

The first thing I noticed was a less than neat neckline, so I zoomed in: (http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u194/MusicalMaven/carlascranberryjelly-neckline.gif)
...which led me to look at the train:
(http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u194/MusicalMaven/carlascranberryjelly-traindetail.gif)

Messy, to be sure.

Then Charlie took a walk around her house.

She first sat to wait for the date who never came (he heard she bought this dress and moved to another neighborhood):

(http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u194/MusicalMaven/carlascranberryjelly-sitting.gif)

Dejected, she wandered upstairs...
(http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u194/MusicalMaven/carlascranberryjelly-climbingstairs.gif)

...and into the bathroom. Here's Charlie, flushing the toilet located near the door:
(http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u194/MusicalMaven/carlascranberryjelly-flush.gif)

Finally, she had a lie down:
(http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u194/MusicalMaven/carlascranberryjelly-bedtime.gif)

Soon after, she burned the dress, changed the entire house to a nice calm beige, and has been wandering around listlessly, not eating, not doing anything....she may never get laid again....

Nice, huh? The dress is...well...horrid. I uploaded it to the booty, though, because someone mentioned it might make a great horror story...that toilet picture looks a lot like blood seeping from under the door.[/quote]

Charlie is now a permanent resident at the Betty Ford Clinic, after attempting several overdoses of the love potion. She has been seen running through the halls naked, screaming "EYE BLEACH! I NEED EYE BLEACH!" Her doctors are considering throwing her in a pool with no ladder, just to put her out of their misery.

That actually looks pretty neat, and could be pretty decorative with the right recolor, in a bizarre, sci-fi way.

in case you missed it, pre-edit, angel had posted the baby table pic yet again; when I pointed it out, angel changed it to the statue.

Venusy, I figured CN was fair game again because this wasn't specifically a clothing category, and I think it's the funky folding when sitting that really makes you go 'what the fuck'...well....that is after just seeing the dress in the first place.

If it's disqualified based on the February ruling, that's fine.

Actually, I thought it was the price tag attached to this abomination crime against taste "creation" that made one go "What the fuck???"

At first I thought that the erect penis/angel chair was a definite WTF.  Then I realized that in sitting position sims would be, uh, 'anally probed' by that 'chair'...and I'm almost sure I've had several sims who have definitely needed that...especially some of the 'fire bugs'...

The boob art did however make my head cock to the side in disbelief...

I agree. The spheres could be made to look like planets, for instance.

My biggest "wtf" is about people who price things absurdly low. I usually delete those immediately; I have to really love something to bother opening SimPE and changing the price. Why would anyone want a $10 double bed? Also, don't $0 floors and walls plummet the environment rating? I have fortune Sims to think of, and for people who want to cheat, there's always motherlode.

Morphing Sim faces onto pictures of celebrities is called "simmerizing" and people over at S2C have been doing it for a while. It's just a picture, people don't play sims that look like this.  I thought they had a post with simmerized pictures in their pictures forum but I can't find it now. There is a tutorial -- http://forums.sims2community.com/showthread.php?t=30334 (http://forums.sims2community.com/showthread.php?t=30334) -- on how to simmerize from December of last year though I'm sure I saw simmerized pictures way before that.

$0 tiles can actually be useful if you are trying to get rid of money via tile method, and you are running a pre-NL game without the familyfunds cheat. Basically, you place a bunch of expensive tiles, then cover them with $0 tiles, and then delete the whole thing. This way, you don't get any money back when you delete them.

The §0 floortile doesn't show any puddles which makes the environment rating go down. If they are just freshly placed the score is ok. Just don't use them in places where there are likely to be puddles forming such as kitchens, bathrooms etc. Mind you I never use them-feels too cheaty for me. Mine are all §1 :D

All my floor tiles are at least $2. I've got plenty of $20 floors and walls. I bump the prices up for a lot of CC I download. Money is so easy to come by. Besides, I don't like the weird cheaty-ness of the bargain basement prices, and I get super tired of using the same old Maxis crap when I want expensive stuff.

It does rather tick me off that no one ever puts the prices or motive scores of items in download info. I still find that hard to get my head around; I'm used to modding communities in which everything important is spelled out and in which gameplay is of paramount importance.

Smacktard has appeared several times here on MATY in the past, and I think at one point there was even a discussion about the nature of the evolution of language and how it formed "smacktard". I personally find "smacktard" somewhat more evocative, though. I think I've instigated every usage of it here, though.

When you say "their understanding of such is grossly flawed", does that mean the catalogue descriptions of EAxis things are wrong as well? I know one must go through a somewhat complex process to get comfort to work correctly, for instance -- are there other motives that are similar?

The moron who is gulity for this, Ry Oman, calls this his Multi Dress (http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/sims2/clothing/female/adult/everyday/575100/).

Scary dress was only submitted last week which makes it completely unforgivable as skinning has moved on somewhat since the early days - even your basic 'how to' will teach enough to create something presentable.

Well, you know what they say. The answer to most problems on the Interweebs is to LURK MOAR.

I'm sure this won't win the big prize, but this one is a WTF for me.

(http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s216/assmitten/MTS2_424736_SparkleSim_thumb_Access.png)

So this little gem (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=209692), spelled variously as "deodorant" and "deoderant," claims to raise your sims' hygiene levels. WHY? WHY? WHY? I ask you. What a waste of time and space. Ah well, the commenters seem to enjoy the realism it brings. Bonus points to the creator for "dubious" use of quotation marks in the "description," which is always good for "mild" "lulz."


Title: Re: More Awful Than You! September: WTF?
Post by: Tchan on 2007 September 26, 22:22:18
Normally I'd LURK MOAR, but I wanted to show how not awesome I am...ah, I suck and I know it, it's okay. ^^


And...surprisingly enough, I like that. It's stupid, pointless and unnecessary, but I do like it. I think I may have gone, "Cool," when first discovering it--before promptly deciding there was no way it was going in my game. I'm not THAT stupid.


Searching MTS2, I discovered this, which is a bit weird: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=121638 Bed-wetting! For children, at least--not the incontinence hack but close. The incontinence hack was way more disturbing, and it wasn't Inge's version.

I think this is pretty WTF too, seeing as there was no reason for it at all: http://www.sexysims2.com/showthread.php?t=170014 It's disqualified, being that it was posted after this contest, but honestly. WHY? Same with this: http://www.sexysims2.com/showthread.php?t=170102 But moreso the first, being that it's just a hacked bed and there isn't any reason for it.



Okay, okay, I can actually submit this: (http://thumbs.sexysims2.com:443/images15/SXS2_316160_woohoo1353_snapshot_31457314_f222d387.jpg)

What the hell?! Why...? Why on earth would anyone want that?! And there's ones on a bed, in a toilet, a shower, a sink...just...why?! It's a white blob.


((I'm aware I've got nothing on the Eye-tree or the boobwall, but I tried. :)))

I would say yes, or that at least it THINKS it is, if it weren't for the fact it's a WTF WHITE PUDDLE?!!!!

I'd suggest you take a look at the toilet one--it's really, REALLY disturbing. There's splodges on the wall, and the floor, and the toilet--bloody good stamina, this guy has! And no cleaning skills whatsoever! And no concept of aim.

Proof:

(http://thumbs.sexysims2.com:443/images14/SXS2_316099_woohoo1353_snapshot_31457314_5221505c.jpg)

(Notice how the...white sticky stuff...on the toilet has been tastefully shaped so it looks the same as a crude version of what it came out of--or, alternately, a mushroom or jellyfish. Nice, eh?)

Good for a Victorian mental hospital scenario maybe, if the blobs didn't actually look like blobs and more like smeared faeces. Not that I'm planning to go look. If that white blob is supposed to be, as Assmitten so elegantly puts it, jizz, then I suspect it would be a waste of a click.

Scary dress was only submitted last week which makes it completely unforgivable as skinning has moved on somewhat since the early days - even your basic 'how to' will teach enough to create something presentable. Unfortunately, it also disqualifies the entry as it was posted after the start of the contest.
Oh dear, how sad, never mind. But then again, here's what happend when Hecubus submitted the Meat Slab dress.
In the clothing category, I think I have to nominate infamous Meat Slab dress from Carla Niven. (I actually made the sacrifice and put this in my game and subjected a sim to its horrors. Here is the sad truth of the dress, as previously shown at PMBD:
7. Carla Niven is disqualified. We already know he'd win. Besides, Freewebs is not a real site.
Aw, Hec, I don't care if it's off limits. I hadn't seen it, and it gave me a good laugh, so thanks. Carla is permanently Honorable Mention status.

I wish to nominate the Period Hack (http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=177932). An oldie but a goodie, which spawned a massive menstruation thread in RL.

It deserves nomination for a number of reasons, not the least of which is this gem in the updates section:

The tampon controller is now more aggressive in making a sim change her tampon.

I have to say that although I'd never use them, my 11 year old just wandered past and said "Wow mum, those are fantastic, can I have them?" which produced my standard rant about the evilness of paysites.
