peppermint & ginger

Hello! Long time no see.

For folks who don't know (or remember) me, I used to be quite active TS2 creator a couple of years ago. I lost interest in playing and modding for this game about 2 years ago, and I abandoned this account around the same time.

I decided to make a bit of a purge on my tumblr. Which means I gonna delete my non-ts2cc related posts. I'm no longer comfortable with having all of this online in an era of AI scraping and shrinking rights for web privacy. Other reason behind this decision is that I want to make my site easier to navigate for people who are here for my old cc.

Speaking of the devil - my cc, creator resources and tutorials aren't going anywhere! I gonna try to visit them from time to time and make sure that all links are working. So if you noticed something is missing - please let me know in my askbox or chat.

In the meantime, I remind you that I bunk-uploaded most of my everything to my sfs & MEGA accounts and you can find them here.

I most likely won't be answering asks in my inbox. If you have issues with my cc (other than broken links), I recommend checking my FAQ page first and my 'technical' tag second.

So, you really thought that I’m done with editing this set? Ha, jokes on you!

On a slightly more serious note, I noticed that 2nd version is a bit... not great, so I added some more opacity here and there, and removed some in other places, and voila.

Important note: if you have one of previous versions, you’ll need to delete it manually. I've only overwritten old files and renamed them, so they’ll conflict with each other!

Note: I edited out hairlines from 2 hair (Sugarfree & Clockwork Bear, I think?), so I don’t recommend using my files as retexture bases!

*So, I’m in my family’s house and I have no access to my go-to PC, and I don’t remember my password to my MEGA account, so no mirrors for now... gonna add them later!

I wanted to break my hiatus with some less complicated project. This retexture comes with some mesh tweaks, such like: new bone assigments, transparency fixes and bit of resizing/repositioning the mesh on the head.

If you want to grab just edited mesh, let my file overwrite original one. It’ll work with older texture files.

Remember that one? Well, after ~2 months of a break, caused by this mesh throwing transparency issues at me at the very end of the conversion process and my rage-quit, I finally opened blender and finished these re-layering shenanigans. The outcome is still not perfect, however making this mesh perfect would take me another 2 months of hiatus, so here we are.

Birb Eyeliner: this one supposed to be a part of a set, but this eyeliner is the only piece that I actually liked from it, so, singular CC thing, yay? You can find it in liners section, tu-eu.

[original download post]

Before you download! I’s actually more of creator resource. If you only want to have a nice hairstyle in your game, actual download is in post linked above.

@themeasureofasim asked me whether I’m willing to make a version of this mesh with hair and hat groups separated for their hair defaulting purposes, and it seemed like an easy enough job, so here you go.

If you’re confused what that means - with a separate hat group, you can manipulate some resource files with SimPE, so you can link one hat color to multiple hair color files and vice versa. It usually cuts a lot of file size and works for both custom and DFR hair!

All ages and sexes, 10.3k poly, 1024x1024px textures, smooth bones & animated. Mesh + recolor base only. PU & CU files are tied to only fem base file and enabled for both sexes. Animations for TF and AF are very, VERY subtle, as they kinda messed up mesh shape originally and I have to edit them for that reason.
