This is... not a terribly original set, but it's a set I made to please myself, and if there's one thing I know, it's that if I want something? At least ten people who keep an eye on this blog also want the thing.

So what you get here is, uh, Magic Uniforms, basically: if you took the Apartment Life witch-wizard-warlock stuff and designated it as the Official Magus Uniform, that'd be what this is. Stuff I made, stuff Skell made, stuff Digi made, stuff Ghanima made, stuff Neder made and ElfPuddle edited, stuff that didn't really NEED to get made but I did it anyway, and all of it except the hatless hairs a) pinned to Apartment Life and b) BINX-edited so they stay together at the very front of the AL section of the catalog, and all of it heavily texture-referenced.

What do you get? Well!

Some of this and some of this and of course this and a little of this and a few changes to this and some tweaks to this and some new stuff entirely!


The interesting thing about 'witch' and 'wizard' is that they both stem from the same root word-- wit or wise. However! )

And that's all I've got for the Mage College.







Behold the Tip Jar!


In case you feel like dropping me a buck or two, should you have a buck or two to spare. I don't do pay content and I can't seem to get requests done in a timely fashion, so donors get a link to the Super Secret Cat Gallery (you help feed my cats, you get to see lots and lots of pictures of my cats) and my to-do list Google doc, in case there's anything on there that makes a donor go 'oooh, when are you working on that one?'

*softly weeps*

Guys I don't want to make any more underwear.



Okay so!

What can I say about linen and underwear, in regards to General Medieviality, that I haven't said several times before? Linen was worn closest to the skin because it launders so well, wicks sweat away, lasts through all the sweating and the grease and the lye and the beating (unlike, say, cotton), and bleaches easily in the sun. Wet linen bleaches white under UV lighting while dry linen starts to yellow, and of course not everybody wore the very best linen, or even the very best linen they personally owned, absolutely all the time.

Basically, in Medieval Europe, everybody wore linen somewhere-- between their skin and their slightly-itchy wool tunic, between their hair that they washed... sometime in the last month, maybe, and their felted-wool hat-- or between their hair and their practical straw hat that might catch. Over a wool gown as an apron, tucked up against the butt as braises, streaming from the upper arms as tippets, pinned to the wimple as a veil-- wrapped around the chin as a wimple!

White linen was everywhere.

This is, effectively, a Linen Dump.

Being a dump, all the Important Information goes outside the cut: Too many cooks who all say no paysites, so, no paysites; meshers are credited inside because otherwise I will lose my mind, but the base fabric is pretty much always Magpie's Linen, and always done in eight color actions from Pooklet's Project Mayhem, CuriousB's Any Color You Like, and Aelia Eco action sets-- in order from whitest to grungest, Pooklet's Time Bomb, CuriousB's Milk, Aelia's Ecru, CuriousB's Oyster, Aelia's Vanilla, Pooklet's Primer, Aelia's Beige, and Pooklet's Grenade. I have also used textures by Alix, Cynnix, and FantasyRogue, and I clearly, clearly went overboard because I am, at this point, sick of white and off-white.

This happens to me when I sew, too, I am SO READY for COLOR. )

Behind the cut lurk twenty 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: Bipsouille, Umi, Helga, CYnnix, DigitalAngels, EnjoyingMyPain, Grecadea, Hriveresse, JellyMeduza, Kazarin, Marko, RentedSpace, Memento/mmnt, Trapping, Vikku/VQ, Peggy, and XM Sims for meshes, Pooklet, Nouk, FantasyRogue, Ja, DigitalAngels, Simpliacity, and, uh, TS4 for textures, Pooklet for making sure Project Mayhem worked with my copy of Photoshop (and for their textures), anyone who has ever donated to me, and you lot for being patient with my long radio silence, because this time it was REALLY long.

HEY LISTEN! Meshes are included unless otherwise noted. Swatches are included in the zip files, everything is compressorized. Poly counts may vary; MAKE NOTES. 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 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!

OH ALSO!

I've been doing the new thing where I'm doing that thing where you sorta bin Time Bomb hairs-- they're still in the Custom bin, but at least in this hair dump, if your Time-Bomb-haired Sim has a kid with their hair color, it won't just be the parent's particular hairstyle!

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

A Long Time Ago, In A Bodyshop Far, Far Away... )
hat_plays_sims: All I did was crop-- go read Bite Me by Dylan Meconis, you'll laugh. (Default)
Because Veetie had to drop from this year's Blind Date event (because health; and I honestly am not fussed because I had to drop out of my second Secret Santa ever), I was supposed to end up with a Super Blind Date. However, because my wishlist is patently ridiculous (I know, I know, but my theme is SO SPECIFIC that I like to give people who maybe aren't used to the Middle Ages a lot of options), Shasta instead asked literally everyone who had volunteered as a Super Blind Date if they could make me one little thing, instead of swooping in with a full pinch-hitting.

Everyone said yes, and I'm still kinda gobsmacked about it.

You can find the gifts here.

The last gift I got was from ElfPuddle, who tried very hard to figure out how to default clothing, a new skill for them. ElfPuddle didn't quite make it, but sent me all the bits they'd gathered-- and I do know how to default clothes and hair (I just don't have the time to make literally everything I want for my game, more's the pity). So ElfPuddle sent everything they got done, I did a little bit more and then discovered I don't know how to do defaults with LESS groups than the originals, but maybe somebody else knows what they're doing.

On the other hand... I got some recolors done?


Gown Swatch
Hair Swatch
Hair Turnaround

So what you have above is K8's Fairy Witch gown (2,334 polys, with AF pregmorph and TF & CF conversions by Cynnix) and Trapping's All-Ages AL Witch Hat (1,265 polys, probably requires Apartment Life) in Neder's Neutral Red Mage colors, tweaked by ElfPuddle and tweaked some more by me (I fiddled with a sleeve and some laces and made the stomacher burgundy to help break up the red). I've included what should be an extracted mesh so you can use the witch hat if you don't have Apartment life installed, but I can't check it.

This was intended to be a Matchmaker default replacement, because one of the things I've been doing lately is trying to strip as much Accidental Racism out of my game (and my brain) as I can. Job one is changing my collection of Far East stuff to a collection of Actually Japanese stuff (I'm aiming for Heian Japan but I'm not going to be terrifically picky), but coming in a very close second is clearing out the ethnic-slur-for-Roma stereotypes. (Yes, the title Scarlet Witch was chosen with my tongue so far in my cheek it almost counts as a piercing.)

But we failed at defaulting, Elfpuddle and I, so instead it's just a nice stand-alone gown-and-hat set.

Gowns are available for casual, maternity, outerwear, and formal. Hats come binned my usual way, with a gray for each color because it's easier for downloaders to remove one rather than add one if they want to re-bin (go ahead and re-bin, Shrapnel makes a nice brown and both Safety Fuse and Comburent could pass as blonds, you do you). Not compressorized because I forgot.

And if you think you can fix my default replacements for the Matchmaker, I welcome and encourage you to beat up my files to do so. (Maybe I screwed up starting with the FT version instead of the NL one? But everything says 'grab from the latest EP you have,' so I dunno. I swear I've defaulted this way before, just... with more groups instead of less.)

Hey guess what!



Rugrat0ne did the thing!

So you can now grab Rugs' default of my edit of ElfPuddle's edit of Neder's Red Mage textures on Cynnix's edit of K8's FairyWitch gown and change your Matchmakers from pink-and-orange Halloween costumes to crimson-clad mages of indeterminate morality! Includes a working copy of the extracted AL Witch Hat mesh for non-Apartment-Life users; apparently mine flashes blue because I don't know what I'm doing. Uploaded that one separately just in case you want witch hats in your pre-AL game, but don't want the default. (Makes my other Pooklet'd witch hats work for pre-AL games, too!)

Welp, it's Epiphany/Three Kings' Day/the Feast of Fools, and Christmas is officially over! Which means three things: Christmas gifts are now late, you no longer have "You know, Christmas is technically two weeks long" as an excuse to leave your tree up, and it's time for my annual Epiphany Sims 2 postings!

Only I don't exactly have as much stuff as I've had in previous years, due to reality (hard drive failure, loss of pet, relatives and holidays, sudden kitten acquisition (I mean, okay, yes, I was deliberately meeting kittens, but I thought that organization had a ten-day waiting period but NOPE sent me home with the little fuzzball that day), and a pair of hell's own headcolds). In fact this is more like a petite hair dump.

So let's toss up the Hair Dump boilerplate!



Behind the cut lurk five hairs and six beards for your downloading pleasure. Before the cut lurks the Hair Dump Policy:

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: Mel, Crisps and Kerosene, and Necrodog for meshes, Nouk, Pooklet, Nymphy, for 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 and previews are included in the zip files, everything is compressorized. Poly counts may vary; MAKE NOTES. 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 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?). BEARDS have colors enabled for elders, and can be downloaded as UNBINNED, BINNED, or BINNED AND TOWNIE-FRIENDLY. Binned elders keep their beard colors; gray beards are binned as gray exclusively. Beards are not familied because for some reason that didn't want to work.

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. (Beards have grays as separate packages.) 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 usually Pooklet's V1 textures, though I like V3 on beards.

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

There are five large (and six reasonable) pics behind the cut, cats and kittens. Dial-up users beware.

My Blind Date was GodLimpingBy, and the goodies I made for 'em are up for download!

(Most of the content is going to end up here, either with more of the same or in an altered state, but a) I'm not up to that yet and b) I'm not reposting GLB's private hair dump unless GoS has issues again.)

EDIT 2021: Ye-ah I should really re-code the whole thing and put it here but it's in BBS code instead of HTML so I have to recode the WHOLE thing and I can't just paste in my usual 'on Mediafire | on Sims File Share' thing.

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: Mel/Rented Space, Cynnix, Trapping, Digital Angels, Dicreasy, Milano Sims, Cazy, Marja, and Clubkitty for meshes (I may have left someone out, lots of TS3 conversions this time), Nouk, Pooklet, Trapping, 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 silences.

Once upon a time the GoS Monthly Theme was Alternative Asia. I think I may have inadvertantly thrown the vote by saying I had a bunch of East Asian hairs just about ready to upload. My scroll wheel crapped out so I couldn't do my own pictures, but Koraliene on GoS and Andlani here on DW volunteered to help me out. (Andlani sent me sixty-three photos to choose from.) So while GoS is down, I figured I'd better toss these up here-- I've been meaning to forever and ever.

This is a hair dump. It's just a dressy hair dump.

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 fifteen large pics behind the cut, cats and kittens. Dial-up users beware.

Behind the cut lurk Fourteen 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: Melodie9, Milano Sims, Trapping, Clubkitty, Marja, FantasyRogue, Daislia, Ja, Berg, Cynnix, Bipsouille, G-Knee, and Aligeth for meshes and mesh edits, Ja, FR, Aquilegia, Pooklet, and Google Image Search (source of my vast Trim folder) 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; MAKE NOTES. Elders go gray, but you also get Time Bomb in the custom bin, just in case Primer isn't platinum enough for you.

Behind the cut lurk twenty hairs for your downloading pleasure. Because I have a massive hair dump for you guys tonight, I decided to divide by the sort of Sim I took pictures of. This is the Normal Female post, and all the pictures are of my nameless peasant chick based around Alfred Askew's Toothy template.

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: Rose, Melodie9, Marja, Marko, Trapping, Sue of XM Sims, Lidiqnata, Hysterical Paroxysm, SAU MYOS, and Raon for meshes, Aquilegia, FantasyRogue, and Nouk for meshes and textures, Ja for her curved bit that I lean on far too much, 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 your comments and support (and I totally consider racking up downloads to be support).

HEY LISTEN! Meshes are included unless otherwise noted. Swatches are included in the zip files, everything is compressorized. Poly counts may vary; I've started adding poly counts to the dump info (but I always manage to look at the poly count AFTER recoloring the hair). Elders go gray, but you also get Time Bomb in the custom bin, just in case Primer isn't platinum enough for you.

Behind the cut lurk thirty-one hairs for your downloading pleasure. Because I have a massive hair dump for you guys tonight, I decided to divide by the sort of Sim I took pictures of. This is the Odd post, which is full of pictures of fairies and Twikkii Islanders and Takemizu villagers and Dame Sir and a random toddler. And coifs. Which aren't weird, but they're formatted funny.

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: Peggy, Raon, Flora over at XM Sims, and Helga for meshes, Nouk for curly and wavy textures, Ja for this one bit of a curve that I use ALL THE TIME, FantasyRogue for my go-to braid texture, 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. I think I renamed Rose's Taobao meshes so that I could tell what was what. Swatches are included in the zip files, everything is compressorized. Poly counts may vary; the XM and Helga hairs are on the low end, but I have very new AND very old Peggy hairs, so they could be all over the map. Elders go gray, but you also get Time Bomb in the custom bin, just in case Primer isn't platinum enough for you.

Twenty-six hairs for your downloading pleasure! I promised you a three-part dump and here it is (naming the four different edits of HIM666 Lord of the Manor and M&T Sims Cakestore Belle Unique slowed me down).

Downloads are inside the cut, so the boilerplate goes outside the cut. The boilerplate is...

NO PAYSITES. Mesh creators' policies may vary, but Pooklet says no and these are her actions.

PRAISE BE UNTO: Nouk, for shiny new wavy textures that I shall be heartily abusing, Melodie9, for age and gender conversions of Maxis meshes, Ja, for textures I periodically pilfer, XM Sims, Gnat Go Splat, DJ Mur3, Fanseelamb, Talenzz, ZZ99, Tenshii Akari, M&T Sims Cakestore, HIM666, and Trapping for meshes, Lyn for making sure I had a working copy of Photoshop, Pooklet for her color actions and for making sure they work with various versions of Photoshop, Cynnix for doing pregmorphs on assorted meshes and asking that I do long, straight hair that goes behind the shoulders (thus kicking my rear in gear to do hair dumps), Lothere and Albion for existing and providing inspiration (it is SO awesome to read someone else's story and go "Hey that's my stuff!"), and to my generous donators, who made it possible for me to release twenty hairs all in one go without getting my Photobucket hammered.

HEY LISTEN! Meshes are included. Swatches are included in the zip files, everything is compressorized. Polycounts vary, but I think everything in this batch is pretty reasonable-- most of it is on the old side. (Please alert me if I'm wrong about that.) 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 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: My filenames are stupidly long, so please feel free to shorten them. Better you edit them to suit your needs than I hand you thirty different files that are all named VOLATILE and piss everyone off, right? Also, each hair has an elder gray attached instead of only being stuck to black or blond (because if you want to only keep four colors or something, this way you can swap out textures and still have all the grays. Or choose which color you want your gray carried on. Whatever). Feel free to re-bin things to suit yourself, or do the neons, or whatever. Go hog wild, seriously. Just keep it off of paysites and give credit where credit is due (which may vary per hair).
