Posedump | 25 (Non-Listed) Poses

Published by NotJustaBook on December 23, 2018

Hi everyone!

I know I’ve already posted today, but I thought today would be good to dump a little Christmas present on you guys. This time it’s a pose dump consisting of mostly story-telling poses that I’ve made for this and that. They’re pretty recent this time (thankfully) and all from Monte Vista Stories, so lots of poses for all your criminal needs (… no? Just me? Kay). This time, you get:

25 poses in non-listed format

9 stand-alone poses for adults

11 coupled sets for adults/teens

1 coupled set for an adult and a child

Pose codes in a .txt file

A note on height-adjustment

A list of links for the accessories I’ve used in the poses

Images with pose codes

A folder with the .clip files

Holiday wishes from me! (You get those even if you’re not downloading, though).

Height-adjustment:

Some of the poses in this set are height-adjusted, which means that you’ll have to either:

Use a height-slider. I use CMar’s slider. In most of these, the sim in the male position is set to 200 and the female is set to -130. (For sorrydaddy1-2 the male is set to 180, however).

Use an OMSP. Simply pop your dude on it and set it to around 13 cm (may need to be lowered a little for sorrydaddy1-2), then snap photos from the waist-up. Or don’t – I’m a free-minded individual.

Previews:

These first ones are all made for Regina (because who else?). The first one is unused so far and required this handgun (not included), while the others were used in gen 2 chapter 7 for Gina and Lotta. They require these flashlights (not included).

The first of these have been in use quite a bit. See example of it in use in chapter gen 2, chapter 8 and the gen 1 rewrite chapter 1 (last picture). The second was used in gen 2 chapter 8. It uses the same gun accessory as the above.

The last one I haven’t used, and it’s a little finicky to use. He’s holding a painting under his arm and you absolutely have to use moveobjects with it. What you do is place the painting and lower it down, then while holding down the alt-key, move your sim into position. Depending on the height of your sim, the painting can’t be too big or it’ll touch the ground.

The first couple here were never used. I intended them for a photoshoot but I wasn’t happy with them and scrapped it. I question past me’s decision on that because they’re not that bad.

The second set were used for an old layout for my blog as you can see in the featured image, so it’s mostly meant for modelling. However, I also managed to find a use for it in gen 2 chapter 15, so it has story-telling potential as well.

These were made with an adult and teen in mind for gen 2, chapter 5. There’s a little caveat however – when you use the pose in the fem position with a teen, the hand clips through the arm. That’s just how teen poses are, I’m afraid, and I was too lazy to correct. Instead, I shot around it in my chapter 😛

These poses were (funny enough) also made for Regina. The first one is stand-alone and just meant as a reaction to being pushed down. In the other two, shit gets real. takedown2-3 are variants of each other, meaning the faces/hands are nearly the same, except he’s lower down to the ground in 3. Why? Uuuuummmm, I dunno 🙂 I guess I felt like I had a need for that at the time. However, none of them ever made it into a chapter. The gun used is the same as for all the above.

Both of these were made for and used in the old version of gen 1 (pls no read is bad). The kid/adult one can be seen in use in gen 1 (old), chapter 20 and she’s actually meant to have this stiletto in her hand (not included). I was just too lazy to do it for the preview. The second was used in gen 1 (old), chapter 19. It uses these rope accessories (not included) though again – too lazy to put them on for the preview because I’m terrible. It works well with my posepack Tied Up at the Moment and maybe I would have included it but I thought it was bad at the time (it is, his face is horrible).

And finally, I have two conversation poses to be used with a railing. The one in this preview is from the basegame, though the name escapes me. They can be used with other fences/walls with a little creativity and alt-key usage though, as I did in gen 2, chapter 21 with 1 (first pic – seen from behind).

What Can I Do With These?

Take pretty, pretty pictures and show me. I’m so curious!

Edit these for your own personal use – that’s what the animation files are for

Edit these and upload them to your funky blog (but please ask for permission and give credit, also please don’t just re-upload without edits, it’s silly)

Posedump | 28 (Non-Listed) Poses

Published by NotJustaBook on October 18, 2018

Hi guys!

I’m almost back from my break, but before the story continues, I thought I’d give you the first of two posedumps I’m planning. I’ve been making poses since 2014 (according to my pose folder, anyway), and because I’m both lazy AND a perfectionist, there’s a fair few poses I never released. Sometimes it was perfectionism getting in the way, but mostly just laziness. Since posedumps are pretty awesome, I figured – why not do it this way! Some of them are from 2014, which means they are wonky as HECK. It even includes what I think must be one of my first attempts at a couple’s pose – CRINGE 😀 Let’s have a look…

This is a dump consisting of 28 different poses, 25 for adults and 3 for kids. They are NOT list compatible, meaning you’ll have to use the poseplayer’s ‘Pose by name…’ function. The file contains:

The poses as a .package file

The animation files (.clip files)

Preview images with codes

A .txt file with codes and descriptions

Hugs! Warm, warm hugs 🙂

Let’s have a look at them all before I change my mind…

Please excuse the middle one – that’s the one I said was probably the first couple’s one I made. It’s bad, but I won’t shy away from my bleak past. Also, excuse the TERRIBLE name for the one on the far right. It was supposed to be used for someone who was pretending to be with the police (don’t ask), and thus the terrible name. I don’t know how you can be this cringe at 24, but there you go… I haven’t used these in any stories, though I still think the sleeping one can be massively useful!

These two were originally made for The Hartfields, my failed legacy. There’s not much variation in these apart from her mouth being slightly closed in the second. I have no damn clue why I needed one with her mouth closed a bit more, but uh… it’s there! You can see an example of it in use here:

Okay, before we move on, I’ll say something that’ll hold true for most of the poses to come: Man, these are really bad, look at how bad I was. There, I said it, and we can move on with pure facts. These were, yet again, made for The Hartfields. I realised after that I made poses that were something like these but less shit… I have no clue where they are, though, but if I find them I’ll include them in the next dump. Here they are in use:

For a pair of poses that was made waaaay back, for the Ithaca Legacy, the ones on the left aren’t too shabby, though they are a bit weird. They snap together, but they way they’re turned doesn’t make sense compared to the bed. There’s no excuse for the knees in the middle one, though, since it’s more recent. For shame. The one on the right is mostly a set of model poses, they were meant for Genevieve and Nadir and I used them on the blog for banners and such. The male stretches so he’s a little taller than the female. Here they are in action:

These next ones are from The Talented. The one with the two of them is odd. She snaps right into place on the bed, but he needs some tweaking with the alt-key. Here they are in action:

Finally some that leave me cringing a little bit less. The first set are from MVS gen 1 (see chapter here for previews). The other two should have been for Champion of Moonlight, but a re-write meant that I didn’t need them anyway. All three of these stretch the male sim to be taller than the female (and they do it badly – yikes).

These ones require the book from this set for the female to hold – or some other open book that can be placed in her hand. I was lazy when doing these previews and I didn’t have them in my game, so that’s how you get hover hands. Sorry – my laziness will be my downfall. (That or my old story folder. Not quite sure). You may need to use an OMSP to raise the book up – I honestly can’t remember, nor can I remember which book from the set I used. I used them in this chapter of CoM.

And finally – three poses for your adventurous kids. These were, of course, made for darling Marta for MVS gen 1. You can see two of them in use here. The third one I never ended up using. For the climbing one, I made a drain pipe from one of the fireplaces. It’s a basegame one with a long chimney. If you use moveobjects on to get the pipe off, it’ll fit with the pose, though you’ll likely need to move the kid/chimney around to make them fit – they don’t snap together.

Now, I hear you ask. Can I…

Edit these?

Yes! I included the animation files for that very purpose. Feel free to change them to suit your needs if you know how to do that.

Make them list-compatible?

Yes! If it makes your life easier, knock yourself out, you beautiful person, you.

Upload my edits/list versions?

Yes! BUT! I’d like for you to ask first. I don’t mind you uploading some where you’ve changed facial expression, faces, corrected bad stuff, or used them as a base for your own poses, but I’d like for you to ask first. It’s the polite thing to do. So is giving me credit, which I’d also like… even though some are so bad I probably shouldn’t admit to having made them.

With that out of the way, pleeeeeeeeeease, tell me if there are ANY issues with these. With so many poses, it’s easy to make mistakes, and I’ve been writing the codes two or three times during this, so I’m a little tired. The downloads are here:
