Okay here goes!

dirk-dreamer answered: This is a basic idea I just thought of but: have you tried different recolors of this outfit, perhaps even from different creators? 

You know, great minds think alike! I actually did that my sixth and seventh goes, used the same outfit as my base (which is actually just a default replacement), but different recolours. Sadly, it didn’t work :(

quinctia said: Check to make sure all of the images involved, the texture, alpha and bumpmap have the same resolution (eg, one is 512x512, but the others are 256x256). I’ve run into this before because I’ll upscale a texture to work on it in higher res, but forget to save it in the res I want to use before finishing it up in bodyshop.

Okay so I checked the original textures of my mesh base recolour in SimPE (not mine as I can’t edit them because they won’t export) and they’re both 1024x1024. There’s no bumpmap, just the texture. So I’m not sure where to go from here.

Thank you both for your suggestions! Much appreciated.

While I used a base game mesh, I do have defaults for these base game meshes. However, I’ve meshed before this way and never had any problems. I’ve Googled and some people claim it’s Windows 10 that’s stopping them. I don’t know where I stand on this theory, I’m thinking it’s probably not the case.

It’s like you double-heired with girls, except not!

:( Find a new man. And more chocolate. And alcohol. I'm the worst at advice.

Are they the ones that Cat and I have a matching pair? :D But I approve whole-heartedly no matter WHAT kitty shoes they are.

THEY ARE THOSE SHOES. THEY ARE THE BEST SHOES.

I read this and thought 'kitchen cats doesn't sound scary at all' then I realised that kitchencats is a username and the scary part of YouTube is probably not videos of cats in kitchens.

Well, she can get a bit scary...but I'm pretty sure she's not in any youtube videos. XD

It gets even better if you scroll down to where it looks like the dots on the cheeks are eyes instead. Better large mouth/rest of face ratio! :D :D

I own like 200 nail polishes and I didn’t own a black until Wednesday. I have plans for halloweeny nails… You can have all the red polish, though, I’m hoarding all the purples.

If only Kinder Surprise were allowed in the US... :( :(

As a transplanted American, UGH THAT IS SO DUMB.

They did that on LJ, too? I haven't posted there in ages. I don't think anyone visits my page much... though I am still getting download notifications so maybe?

I think there are actually still a lot of people lurking on LJ, just not many posts/comments, since I get a good  5-10 sim download notifications from Box each day, and I don't have my sims advertised anywhere other than LJ.

it might be newly on the homepage, but the feature's been available for ages! you just had to go to a stats page first.

Ohhhhh really? Now I feel like one of those kids who walks around covering their eyes because "if I can't see them, they obviously can't see me"! Good thing my stalking was only good intentioned! XD

Yeah, sometimes flat/roommates just decide to be outright annoying :/ so sorry!

When it was 10am and I'd already done everything I needed to do and could skive off and bake cookies for the rest of the day, I didn't mind. But I certainly minded when it was 7, lol.
