HAIR DUMP X, PART ONE: The Franchise Reboot

[hat_plays_sims]

Behind the cut lurk seventeen hairs for your downloading pleasure.

Since there are a zillion downloads inside the cut, the boilerplate goes outside the cut, so...

NO PAYSITES. Mesh creators' policies may vary, my policy says I want a cut (like that would ever happen), but Pooklet says no and these are Pooklet's actions. So no paysites.

PRAISE BE UNTO: Trapping, Helga, Lidiqnata, Nouk, Bipsouille, Natrobo, Hysterical Paroxysm, Cynnix, Sussi, Tenshii Akari, Pinketamine, and Marja for awesome meshes, Pooklet, Nouk, FR, Ja, Alfred Askew, and Aquilegia for textures, Lyn for making sure I had a working copy of Photoshop, Pooklet for making sure Project Mayhem worked with my copy of Photoshop (and for their textures), my lovely donors who make sure I can keep my photos online (which lets me post hair dumps at all), and you lot for being patient with my long radio silence.

HEY LISTEN! Meshes are included unless otherwise noted. Swatches are included in the zip files, everything is compressorized. Poly counts may vary. Elders go gray, but you also get Time Bomb in the custom bin, just in case Primer isn't platinum enough for you. All female hairs are maternity-wear enabled from at least teen and up, and all male hairs from YA and up, to stop the weird hair disappearing act that happens if you don't have a Pregnant Sims Wear Any Outfit hack (but why wouldn't you?).

ANNOYING THINGS I DO: Because I credit everybody in them, my folder and file names are stupidly long. Feel free to shorten one, the other, or both as you please-- better you edit them to suit your needs than I just name everything [COLOR NAME] and cheese everybody off, right? Also, each hair color has an elder gray attached instead of only black. Feel free to re-bin everything and cut out the extra grays, or only use one family but swap out textures so your elders have some variety, whatever. Likewise, I bin using Pooklet's original scheme, because it's a nice easy default. I totally do not care if you re-bin things to suit your own tastes (but hey, every hair has a gray attached in case you need it!), and neither does Pooklet, so do whatever makes you happy, binning-wise.

EVEN MORE ANNOYING: Everybody sees a hair dump, so...

Wanna help me feed my cats?

In case you feel like dropping me a buck or two, should you have a buck or two to spare. Donors get two things at the moment: a) a link to the Super Secret Cat Gallery, full of pictures of the cats you'll be feeding, updated sporadically when the cats do something photogenic and I'm fast enough on the trigger to catch it, and b) a link to the list of content I have done-but-not-screencapped, nearly done, partly done, or in the planning stages, and the option to suggest what ought to be in the next batch of things I focus on.

Yes, if you want to do the unnaturals, please feel free to do the unnaturals. I have no plans to do so. Just remember to credit properly-- I tend to use Nouk's waves, FR's braid, and a chunk of curve I stole off Ja's Uni ponytail default.

If you spot any broken links or other idiocy, please let me know!

There are seventeen large pics behind the cut, cats and kittens. Dial-up users beware.

I actually don't have much to say about this hair. Give me a few hairs, yet, I'll get warmed up and chatty and back in the swing of things.

Clearly, the answer to 'how many variations and edits of Nouk's Long Wavy hair does Hat need?' is 'ALL OF THEM.' I keep putting the texture on other, unrelated hairs, too.

This one was for a request on GoS, but I kinda like having all my hairs posted somewhere on DW. I don't use this one myself, but it's ridiculously cute.

This hair is a genuine trial to make because it has so many groups... but it looks SO NICE on men that when I saw this mesh, I had to have it in all the colors with my grays, and the textures were already done and everything...

My game needs more pageboy haircuts that work for men. (No it doesn't. My game is hovering at 6.5 gigs of custom content and a significant amount of that is hair. If there's something I need, it's working items that replace deco items.)

I really like this hair, but it, like its male counterpart, has a weird alpha issue on the left side and... Well, it's still a really neat haircut.

This is another hair done for a content trade. Let the record show that I will be happy to retexture hairs outside my chosen period (especially inside another period I'm familiar with) in exchange for things like Medieval mesh defaults for NPCs, pregmorphs added to meshes that lack pregmorphs (especially AM and TF), and age conversions of some of the more useful Medieval meshes out there.

Because my game always needs more hairs for women who like to dress as men and join the military. (No, no, it doesn't. My game needs more CLOTHES for women who like to dress as men and join the military.)

Yep, this is the male counterpart to Get My Good Side, and it has the same alpha issue. The mapping is such that I can't edit out the transparency weirdie.

I like this hair. It looks like what Aquilegia's Scholar's Tail would look like loose. It's not animated like the female original from the Store, though, just so you know. (That's my original picture. Same textures, just on a new mesh with more ages.)

If there's one thing my game needs, it's more curly hair. (No, no it doesn't, but I do so love curls.) This is the same mesh as Courageous, just with the original Helga textures instead of the Nouk waves.

Something... Something about needing more curly hair... Anyway, it was Alfred Askew's idea to slap Nouk's waves onto this mesh, I just did it binned the way I like and attacked Pinketamine's MtF mesh with it. And cut out the toddler hair. Mapping issues, maybe that was my problem, I don't know.

Long, straight, loose hair with no bangs and a reasonable poly count. Is there any theme that DOESN'T need more hair like that? This is Alice in Wonderland hair, it's mermaid hair, it's damsel-in-distress hair, it's an updo taken down for the bath. It's whatever you need it to be because it's just nice, natural hair.
