EA Face Overlay Fix
 
7 Attachment(s)
These have been a long time coming and I've finally uploaded! Sorry for the wait guys.

This fixes two issues I had with EA's face overlay, I've removed the pink lip tinge that comes with Teen, Young Adult, Adult and Elder females and replaced the Eye whites for all ages and genders with my own to enable smaller eye's.

EA are fond of doing silly seemingly useless little things and the eye whites are no exception, they've put the iris texture onto the overlay for the eye white which means any eye texture smaller than EA's will have a pale blue ring.....
Look at the screen shot using my small eye and you can see why there aren't many smaller eye replacements!

I removed the eye texture from my game for a better comparison (don't worry, your sims won't suddenly have a freaky eye!)


The lip overlay has been removed completely, while its not an issue on paler Sims, darker and fantasy colours just look sooooo wrong. Besides if I wanted my Sims to have a lip tinge I'd just slap a lipstick on.


There are three packages for you too choose from and you can only have one in your game (remember you can't have any other Face overlay replacements either).
Eye whites & Lips give you the full fix,
Eye whites will give you Just the eye whites
Lip overlay will just give you the removed lip overlay without the eye white.
I wouldn't have bothered with the last two but I thought some of you may want a choice.

Remember if you do create smaller eyes using the eye white overlay then down-loader's will need to have it in their game to, so don't forget to link.

Pop it in your mods folder and enjoy.

Ok, so I thought I should start linking to other small eyes that don't change the face overlay. I hope to see this list get bigger!

Please make a NON-Default!

jordoo, that makes no sense - this would be useless as a non-default (and, a non-default -what-? this isn't makeup or anything). The whole point is to fix the issues with the defaults that will affect -everything- skin/eye-related.

Wonderful! The lip thing always bothered me. And I love smaller eyes, too. Thanks so much!

MissNuki 26th Mar 2010 08:03 PM

My Chocolate-Sims will appreciate this. Major Kudos to you.

Is this conflict with "Aikea Guinea - Default Replacement Skintone V1" and "Aikea Guinea - TS3 Default Eyes II Multicolored"? Thank you.

It won't conflict with the skintone but it will conflict with the eye's since Aikea changed the face overlay and put it in the package to get smallers eye's. It's either, or unfourtunatly. If you wanted to use these these overlays you could always ask Aikea to upload the eyes as a stand alone.

anak_ponti 27th Mar 2010 11:29 PM

OK I get that. Thanks for your answer.

So i'm confused, can you use defult replacement eyes with this mod? I would really like to use it, because it sounds amazing , but i'm hesitant because i would like to be able to change my eyes at any given time.

Ok then let me elaborete. You can most definatly use replacement eye's with this mod but creators who have released a small eye have done so by editing and including the face overlay in the package which means those packages will conflit with this one. The whole reason I made this package was to get rid of the lip overlay and so I could create a small version of my eye but instead of adding this to my eye package I thought I'd release it as a stand alone to give players more choice. Since this has only just been released I doubt anyone has made small eye's without including a face overlay yet. :P

Thank you. I just opened up the game today and took some pictures. Wow what a difference the lack of that stupid lip overlay makes. My sim looks so much better and even more natural. I was comparing pictures of the same character from before and after and it really makes a difference.

anak_ponti 29th Mar 2010 03:17 AM

I forgot to ask. If I use the lip only version, will it also conflict with Aikea Guinea's default skintone & eyes replacement? Thank you.

Not as far as I can see, I don't think the overlay was changed so it should be fine : )

xhn3yb3x 10th Sep 2011 01:11 AM
