hello! would you be interested in releasing a little tutorial/guide on how to convert default skins for infants? i understand if you don't feel like it!
of course! it goes without saying that you need sims 4 studio (s4s) of course. also a photo editing program, you can use photopea for free! open s4s at the top click tools > create empty package. you should see this! click on add at the very bottom left...
line by line, copy and paste all the information down below into the "add" box that just popped up. Change the "type" to LRLE image, keep the group as is (it should be a bunch of 0s), and type in the instance numbers. (Ignore the red oval for now!) Make sure to double check! Save your package file!
Now all you need to do is important the images of the skin. All sim textures take up exactly the same amount of space and all their features are proportioned in the exact same spots so you can take any skin blend and slap it on top of a base and import it and you're done! The red oval above is the chubby state for infants and the other 3 are just default/average body states. (Even though I found like 8 separate instances of infant skin, only 1 was chubby and the rest default body states. The other 4 files didn't seem to change anything in CAS, I don't know why though!)
If you want to make more realistic alpha skin you'll need to make your own entirely from scratch, mix and match, or use another creators. (Even though all creators have open TOUs per EA's own TOU you should probably still ask just to be nice and absolutely give credit to them. And by credit I mean mention their name and/or link to their page, not any of that goofy "credits to all creators" nonsense!)
📂Download EA infant skin base!
Happy converting! 😊
❗ Postnotes: ❗ The instances for all the other ages didn't seem to change, so there's no need to update, only add-on. Also instead of creating a new package you can just add-on to an existing package file. It's just easier and safer to start brand new
Roier: Well look who came on, The one who wrote to me on Twitter– he told me today "I won't enter today guapito, I won't enter today guapito, I don't know about today guapito." Hmm, what happened Cellbit? What happened Cellbit? He lied to me, he lied to me, your dad lied to me, your dad lied to me, Richarlyson. I thought that–
Cellbit: ROIER YOU ARE VERY HANDSOME
Roier: I can't say anything now. You as well, you as well, you too, you too. How do you say "You more" in Portuguese, Richarlyson? Você mais? Is that it? No, I don't know how to say it. I don't know if I said it wrong. No, it scares me man, because maybe I said something wrong.
No but like the fact that Mihawk KNEW about Luffy and how he is tied to Shanks! And the fact that he decided to personally go and talk about him to Shanks is just… they’re so interesting (in love)
you know, a lot of characters see that hat on luffy’s head and think hey, didn’t red-haired shanks used to wear something like that? it’s practically cliche.
as is characters who knew shanks before and after he gave it away asking shanks what happened to the hat. whether they get details, like rayleigh did, or just that cryptic “i bet it on the next generation” line, depends on who shanks is talking to. given his longstanding rivalry with mihawk, it’s not hard to imagine the next time they were meant to have a duel they ended up discussing luffy instead.
You're the realest motherfucker on planet Earth and I hope you know that.
Here's a bunch of bullshit I doodled on the topic of Nonbinary Sapphic Tuvok !!!! And I HOPE you will share YOUR personal brainrot with the class (my ask box, the masses, a text post....whatever gets the word out.)
If you've been paying attention you KNOW I love a 'Tuvok discovers he's trans while in the delta quadrant' story
Guy who likes girls and has always liked girls...but....not in the same way OTHER guys seem to like girls...
Tuvok who never quite fit in with 'other' men even Vulcan men...always preferred spending time with women and girls but never felt precisely LIKE a woman or OVERLY uncomfortable with being identified as a man and Vulcan society doesn't seem like it would be heavily gendered so he never really questioned it seriously.
Tuvok who found comfort in titles like Husband and Father...those fit, those are good. Then in the delta quadrant he isn't able to be a husband or a father any more and is just some guy surrounded by humans...hmmmmmm....
Still doesn't really seriously think it's worth questioning or exploring his gender identity (partially out of a desire to return home as he left...what will his wife and children think? He's experienced a LOT of sudden change in regards to his personal identity and life, he doesn't really want to undergo more.) until Seven of Nine comes along and also begins to go through a "Questioning Her Gender" arc.
Tuvok thinks about it on his own time for a long time and then finally goes to Janeway for support and assistance and together they spend like SEVERAL months just the two of them seeing what this whole gender thing's about.
Tuvok slowly exploring expressing himself in a more feminine manner because he's spent his whole life adhering rigidly to one sort of Look. Unexpectedly struggles with anxiety about this.
Neelix: Don't be nervous Ms. Vulcan!
Tuvok: [nervous] I am not nervous.
Tuvok and Seven BOTH exploring masculinity/femininity and their own nonbinary gender identities...late night slumber par- experimentation. Painting each others nails is...very scientific. It's important. Talking with Janeway was good because she's his friend but talking with Seven, another person actively questioning their gender is....well, it's something else.
Okay be honest, are we getting baby harry and regulus bonding time at some point 👀
babes omg i wanted/had planned for there to be actual proper baby haz and reggie bonding moments but like i know NOTHING about babies, absolutely nothing. i have friends and cousins with kids but i don't hang out with them?? obviously. and i am that person that just speaks to babies like they're small stupid people and when i'm writing i have to google literally everything about every second of every scene with harry or bombard my pals with questions and it's just too much drama for me lol
i am trying to yeet harry into every scene i can but i just CBA i'm gonna be so honest. babies are LONG!!!!!!!! is he even a baby anymore???? is he a toddler??? wtf even IS a toddler???? in my mind if you're 5 and under you're just a baby but i don't think that's right tbh. yolo
Hi, I want to ask a question I saw your post about substance disorders. So my character drinks a lot (basically every day) to escape emotions/memories and typically falls asleep after becoming drunk enough to fall asleep. It also has put a big divide between her and her in-laws (well they were considered in-laws.) Would that be something I could consider a substance use disorder? Or just alcoholic dependence. I don't want to portray something the wrong way or say it's one thing when it's not. Thank you so much for your time.
i'd say with something like that, it would be considered what's called, in clinical terms, unspecified alcohol-related disorder--there's some functioning inhibition there and problematic behaviors, maybe A Symptom of full blown alcohol use disorder there, but not so severe that it causes a complete upheaval in their life, and maybe not enough symptoms to meet a full blown alcohol use disorder diagnosis. i'd say alcohol dependence would be an appropriate term for them if they're using it to escape and to sleep.
i should have included this in the other post lol, but there's also different levels of severity in substance use disorders. mild severity indicates the presence of 2-3 symptoms, moderate severity indicates the presence of 4-5 symptoms, and severe indicates the presence of 6+ symptoms. idk if that information specifically is helpful but i figured i'd toss it in there.
“I’m touched, love, really - “ Ringed fingers are held between them, palm outwards in a gesture borne of weary impatience, the shadows dancing across the dim room doing nothing to alleviate the exhaustion etched into stubbled features. The sun outside is a damned near bloody furnace, and the stifling hotel has offered no reprieve ... the former agent wants nothing more than to get this business done, and retreat to some quiet club with a drink ... or four. Black boots take one more stride, closing the distance between them as a single brow quirks upwards and the palm outstretched in peace begins to gesture as if doing its best to hurry the conversation along. “ - but do you think perhaps we can skip the whole I won’t go down without a fight speech? It’d be the third bloody monologue I’ve heard in this week alone, and to be frank, lass - I just want to tell you what I came for and then fuck off back to pretending I don’t know where you are or what you’re up to. Either take pity on me and let us have this conversation some place with a damned working air conditioner or hold me hostage in a freezer.” He stops at the words, head cocking to the side as if regarding both the woman in front of him and the prospect of his future. “ Just don’t get blood on me jacket, aye? I won’t be able to return it.”
7. A medium of art you don't work in but appreciate?
Okay so first of all the lame but completely true answer is pretty much everything? lol. Any kind of art I don't already do is either 'GOD I wanna get into that' or 'GOD how did you DO THAT!!!' One that I really have no intention or interest in doing myself that blows my mind every time is like marble sculpture-- like first of all have you SEEN some of the crazy shit people have gotten away with making out of STONE, SOMEHOW and also on principle the idea of doing subtractive sculpting a) in general and b) on a BIG CHUNK OF BEAUTIFUL STONE gives me so much anxiety, I don't know how they do it lmao
9. What are your file name conventions?
There are so many artist memes about file names being something like dfkjhkdf(2).png that I wonder if I'm in the minority here?? but honestly usually just something short and descriptive, so I can hopefully know what a file is just by looking at it. I really only run into problems when I'm doing, like, a doodle page with no specific subject or theme and I already have a file in that folder named 'sketches' or '[oc name] doodles' or whatever-- I've got a handful of '[oc name] doodles again' or 'more [oc name] doodles' haha. If I'm going to post art in a couple of separate chunks they'll usually be saved as [file name] 1/ 2/ etc. I also sort my art folders by date, so whatever I just drew is at the top and I don't have to worry about what I named something to be able to find it pretty easily haha
GIGI HARRINGTON ( AGED UP VERSE. ) for IVY BRIAR : i think it would be so fucking cool if we get Detective Briar on the cold case of the mass murders on the Harrington Estate 👀 mayhaps ivy was looking for files for research & she comes across a case that had dead end after dead end . . . but somethings pops out at her ( let's say, more supernatural-esque details that she'd easily be able to spot ) . gigi harrington had gone missing before the murders. so, ivy going on the hunt to discover what really happened on that awful night??? HMM????
SILAS AMBROSE for IVY BRIAR : i could see silas being the annoying tag a long to some of ivy's cases . silas is in the underground work to protect supernatural beings BUT he does know & understand that there will always be bad eggs out there . so he'd definitely wanna help in hunting down the bad ones, & i see him helping out ivy in doing just that !!
simon doesn't know how to apologize besides throwing himself into your mercy. he loves you and can't think of any other way to express to you how never means to hurt you, how everything he does is to make sure you're comfortable and taken care of.
even after this stupid little argument that he had with you, he didn't even know why he was fighting. he just realized too late when he saw tears form in your eyes and your feet stomping off into your shared bedroom.
so here is his penance, his apology: giving you soft kisses on your shoulder as his arms hold you up over his cock.you whine and groan as his cock slips in and out of your dripping pussy. he didn't want to hurt you and he didn't want to make you feel any more discomfort so he, in turn, used more lube than he normally would. the sounds of skin slapping skin normally would have made you blush in embarrassment and cause you to curl up into him. this time around, you couldn't care less, the way he's making you feel was a clear juxtaposition to how to feel just an hour before.
you feel his breath, heavy and hot in the crook of your neck, you pussy pulses around him and over your moans, he gives you one in return. his tongue licks and sucks on your shoulder gently, "m' sorry baby...shouldn't have said that..."
you whine and wrap your arms around his neck and his back, your tits pressed against his chest, "can we...ah- can we not..." you suck in a breath, "do this right now, si? when you're in me?"
he mumbles something you can't process or hear as one of his arms unravels and goes to rub tight circles around your clit. your back arches into his touch and a loud groan of his name rings out.
"wanna show you...how sorry i am.." he pants as his dick throbs inside of you, so so close to cumming, fill you up in his sticky release. the snap of his hip dials down into a roll. he hums as he feels your body start to tense up as the tension builds in your lower stomach.
crescent indents form in his back as your nails dig in from the pleasure he's able to give you, the amount of bliss 10x as strong from the lack of such a euphoric feeling you've been feeling. his thumb rubs your aching clit just a bit harder and your groans turned into a cacophony of whimpers and high pitched squeals as your orgasm runs through you.
simon feels your body tensing up in his arms, and damn does his cock feel it too. the way your cushiony walls pulsate and clamp dowm on him, god he was hard, it was unbearable. he wanted to cum so fucking badly, been wanting to put a load in you for half an hour now but he won't let himself. he said he was showing you how sorry he was, and that's exactly what he's doing.
your breathing steadies itself and you curl up closer to him, resting your face onto the top of his head, smelling in his yours shampoo. your whines become hiccups as your high dies down, overwhelmed and tired.
"i'm sorry lovie..." he begins, his hand slipping out from between your legs and his hips start to roll his cock in and out of your raw pussy. you groaned and tense up at the overstimulation, clinging onto him.
he turns off his brain as you help him, pulling your hips up and down. he lets out a breathy moan and holds you closer, snapping his throbbing cock inyo your harder, faster. his lips on your neck as he prays to you a mantra.
"m'sorry..so sorry, lovie..." simon's close he can feel it, he just needs two words from you, that's it. he needs you to let him cum, god-seeing you sad is punishment enough, mixed with the pain of his tight balls and overly sensitive cock makes him a brainless mush.
he couldn't take it anymore as he pounds into you, mumbling messily into your ear, your scent overwhelming him- you overwhelming him. "m'sorry m'sorry...so sorry. m'sorry sorrysorrysorry...."
"it's okay, si...it's okay." god, that's all he needs as his prayers to you were answered, his mantra stops with a restrained moan, quickly turning into whimpers like a hurt puppy as you feel his thick cum fill you, dripping down his shaft.
his arms loosen the grip he has on you and you slide down his dick just a bit and he bites into your shoulder, the friction making him overwhelmed. the two of you sit like that for a bit, leaning on each other to stay upright. you don't even think simon had anything to think about.
"you okay?" you ask him, grounding him from his headless space that he had slipped to, dependent on you for everything.
you feel him nod and his arms lift you up, pulling out of you. he gives you a gentle kiss on your lips and your hands find his cheeks, wiping away his tears. "m' really sorry.."
"i know, baby...i know.." you assure him and he lays back onto the headboard.
simon riley would gladly give up his whole being for you, and luckily for him, you'll always accept it, holding him together until he stitch himself up again.
