Very very useful

I'm experiencing a problem with the mannequin infant skin. My female mannequin sim is just about to have her baby when I load her lot, but just when she's about to have it, that wicked "Application has crashed" message keeps appearing just as the baby is being delivered, even after I put in the mesh that I got from CreaturesSkins_CCSTAR.zip. If anyone has an idea what could be going on or what I might've done wrong, could you please clue me in? I can't tell you how grateful I'd be.

Have you redownload the file? The first version doesn't have the infant skin.

I don't know what you mean by first version. I did, however, delete the content I got from the first CreaturesSkins_CCSTAR.zip I downloaded and put in my Downloads folder since it didn't work. I redownloaded the same zip file, took the content, and put it back into my Downloads folder--but it's still no go. When she gives birth my application still crashes and terminates.

Edit: I also downloaded the other zip file, but that didn't help either.

This is weird. My sims can give birth just fine... Are you you're using my skin and not Maxis's mannequin skin? Both look identical but Maxis's version of the skin do cause crash because it doesn't contain any infant skins.

Oh noo, I am using Maxis' skin! Gaaah...oh well. I can afford to delete her lot and remake her since she's reproducing asexually and was recently made anyway. I haven't tried out your skin yet, but if it works out well for you and others then I'm sure I'm good to go. Thank you so much for helping me!

Love these, thanks so much. My neighbourhoods are so much more colourful now. :D

hello, I'd like to thank you for your work, I find this skins very useful. but I've got one problem. as for now I've only played with the werewolf skin and the problem is, when my sim goes to take a shower, his clothes don't disappear. he does the spin, theoretically he's naked but what the? at first I though that might be the cc shower, but nope. oh, and the clothes disappear for infants and children when changed/bathed. they stay only children up. I also have cc werewolf skin. any idea what's up?
cheers

To be honest I have no idea. I'll try to look if it happens in my game too sometime this week but I really think that's not supposed to happen.

The game look at these skins as CC skins. But instead of CC, they pull the textures directly from the game files. This is not a flag-changing type of unlocker so it really shouldn't cause any problem.

May I solicit you to try the other skin that you don't happen to have the default replacement of? Maybe that's what causing the problem, but I can't say for sure without looking at the default replacement skin itself .

I understand the general idea, so I was surprised too that something doesn't work as it should. it's not a big problem though, just a little annoying.
anyways, the only skin I haven't replacement of is the mannequin one, so I'll try it, although I should also probably try the other ones. skins I have are from http://www.sexysims2.com/showthread.php?t=171120 this thread, similar found on MTS too.
take your time, I appreciate your work and your help

EDIT: I made a family of two women [zombie and mannequin] and one guy [either normal or wilted plantsim, forgot] and only that guy didn't properly undress to take a shower! still, kids [girls] of the werewolf-skinned guy I mentioned also didn't undress, so it's not a question of gender I guess. I'll try with the female plantsim-skinned and male zombie/mannequin then.

so. male mannequin undressed normally, female wilted plantsim did not, male zombie did, female werewolf did not.
to summ up: there seems to be a problem with werewolf and plantsim skins.
and I am so confused :D

Ok. I think I know the problem. So the broken skins are werewolf and plantsim, right? Only from teens and up? Toddler and children undress just fine?

um, children are broken too. only babies and toddlers are being undressed properly, and yes, werewolf and plantsim

Yep, I know what's wrong, it's just I'm pretty busy currently so I don't know when I'll be able to fix them. At least it's not a fatal bug... Sorry about that.

it's okay, glad you could find out what's up. I'll be waiting for some update, take your time and thanks :D

Sweet, the only default skintones i can stand :D

If I get for example a plantsim or have an alien baby, would it get your skin or maxis' one?

They'll get Maxis'

ok. Thanks! And what's about the genes? Is it always dominant?

can you unlock the genie skin too please?

Yeah, that whole problem with the manniquin skins makes perfect sense now...

I used the boolProp cheat and sent the Create-A-Sim into debugging mode, and when I had the mother get pregnant with a default skin tone guy, the game crashed.

Anyways, sweet. Thanks for the upload.

-Cass. ^^

EDIT:

If we get a new Expansion pack, do we have to re-install this?

I only have Nightlife, BV and Pets currently.

The Genie has the colored Skinparts on his Clothing Texture.

I can't get these skins to work. I tried downloading one set, then trying to make a sim with one of the skin tones but it didn't work. I then tried downloading the other, deleting the other set, and trying to make a sim with one of the skin tones, and it still didn't work. Any clue?

What do you exactly mean by 'didn't work'?

I would click on one of the little thumbnails and the sim's head would be the same as the skin I had on it before and the body would be the same color as one of the 4 basic skin tones.

Do you have the corresponding EPs installed?
