Ha! Then we appear to share a pet peeve, as far as that's concerned. That sort of thing has always bothered me, and yup, I find it to be lazy and/or rude. (Quite often, I think it's done on purpose, just because they want no part in the conversation, anymore. Still, it could be the worse alternative; no reply at all. -_-)
So, yes, our pov's are the same.

When Nightlife came out, I probably said something like, "Aaahh, the expansion I was waiting for!", that sort of thing. Seasons was probably my second favorite, love that stuff; still no Seasons for TS4, though, or Pets (I could care less about the latter, honestly, but people whine over that one, lol)
I recall the original producer or whoever for TS3 being overly ambitious and largely responsible for how screwed up that game was. He basically dug a hole so deep, that much of it would be impossible to climb out of. Who knows, maybe they'll give the open-world thing another shot, someday?
Personally, I just wish EA's tainted touch wasn't all over it, or that the creators could take their time so they didn't feel rushed to the point of messing things up, again.

Jeez, you took the cat fight all the way to the highest threshold of danger, lol!!! I was thinking more along the lines of wrestling in bikinis, or an angry pillow fight, ha ha.

That ring mod... I have yet to really give that a shot, but you actually explained it in such a way that I can finally understand what it's potential is. So that's how it works, everything from the Normal outfit carries over to the other two? Hmm, might have to look into that!

Honestly, I'm just amazed at the many ways people find to mess up their games. I've never seen more than half of the issues they bring up... more often than not, the fault is on them for overlooking an installation step, or the like.

No prob! You shouldn't have any issues, so long as you do everything properly in the right order.
Mr. Hanz Shudong? o_O This, I'll have to see...
T
Well, that is a shame. I've explained all that I can, at any rate. If things work on your end, that's fine, but not so for anyone else who wants to use the mod.

Honestly, this whole thing, including the conversation, frustrates me, so you'll have to forgive me as I step away from this issue and move on, for awhile.
I don't want any bad blood between us, like that other time when I tried to help you with a studio mod many months ago for SBPR. : /

Troublesome indeed. That doesn't sound good at all.

That mod sounds very useful. I'm going to have to look for it or I can even ask TMV. It would make moving those tentacles a whole lot easier.

As for the DLC updates, this is a great place for that, and many other goodies: https://pastebin.com/Z9kkjDjT

The latest patch is honeyparty_01_plus_0616to_sub, though perhaps getting the all-in-one would be easiest, which would be honeyparty_01_plus_0616df_all.

Don't forget to reapply the 4k diffuse/graphics patch, IPA/Translations, and the WideSlider, if you ever decide to take the plunge!

Well, well, looks like you brought out the worst of my wind-bag ways! XD
T
Oh, you think you're the only one, eh? :D I used to be much, much worse, but I eased up when people started replying in like half or less of the words I used. Guess I was too friendly, and/or they didn't care for all that text. : /

Lighting is magic! lol

That they were, and hence why the product got dragged into the mud, for awhile. The open-world part of TS3 was so much fun, and yes, some worlds were less problematic than others... but that city world was BAAAD! (Nightlife, I think?)

Yes, options are always a plus, heh heh. You just don't want them catching on, getting jealous, and developing some sort of cat-fight!
...
Hmm, on second thought...

Sooner or later, I'll get around to uploading my damn cards. My only fear is the issues coming from mod IDs I've had to fix, due to conflicts, and people having the mods, themselves. Figuring out who uses what would take forever!
Very clever with the accessory use, I'm really quite lazy with that sort of thing.

Ahh, the pain of DLC and updates. I'm sure most modders will be relieved when they're finally done updating the game files. But yeah, you'll need that DLC to get those... though, actually, I thought it was the HSParty and NEO addon that started up all that, since it also prepared for the Battle Arena stuff? (Or maybe it was the May 12th patch...) What's stopping you from installing those, btw, just the translations? Quite a bit has been translated, actually. You should look into this, when you're ready!

UI Translation AIO

I only ever spoke of one error, and it was the same one Seth and a few others spoke of.

At any rate, I at least figured out the issue with HiRNEO, and the fix was exactly the same. First, here's how you have this particular object done in the list:

<><><4200><10><God ray 01><><studioneo/sit_01.unity3d><godray_001>

It's those extra brackets in-between God ray 01 and studioneo. It should look like this:

<><><4200><10><God ray 01><studioneo/sit_01.unity3d><godray_001>

Again, it's the same problem as before, so HiR at least seems to work... now the problem is that the items aren't showing up in NEO at all. Which category are they supposed to be in? I checked through all the items and they are nowhere to be found. Do keep in mind that I am using your original directory choice, involving the unity3d file in abdata/studioneo.

I just checked the ItemList_00_00 MonoBehavior file, and nope, the files were not added. So, the sit_Rays_01 list file seems to be fine, (otherwise I'd be getting errors, again) but something else, perhaps with the unity3d file, is not.
T
Hmm, well then, it seems I may have overestimated you, lol! I have, not including alternate versions, 37 girls, but 123 total in that folder; as for the men, lol, only Brick, Tojo, and Luther Stone... yup, that's it, aside from some other cards I downloaded to make up for it. I guess I need to start creating guys? Ugh, lol, not as fun!

Oh, btw, have you checked out Belgar17's and Snooley's male clothing mods? Those would help, I think. Belgar's are right here, whereas Snooley's are on HF.

(Sorry, had to split up my comments... got too long-winded!)
T
Much to respond to, here! ^_^

Ahh, so THAT'S her, eh? She just looks so different in comparison to your avatar version, like... now she looks more mature and tough, whereas your avatar version looks more youthful. So it seems we've both got a thing for girls who can take care of themselves, eh? :D

Yeah, SBPR was when I really started having a blast with studio stuff. My use of PC was pretty brief, in comparison. lol, I was actually pretty 'family-friendly' with The Sims series until around the end of my playing TS3. Just good, clean fun. TS3 could have been ultimate, if not for the routing issues, which was also heavily responsible for lag and all that. Damn EA, always finds a way to screw things up. -_- Too bad Maxis couldn't sustain the series on its own, like it did with the first two games. Now Maxis is pretty much dead, if I recall?

Yes! When they look extremely similar to not only the default girl, but all the other preset options! That bugs me, a little, but nothing to lose sleep over.

lol!!! Wow, I was NOT expecting you to pull out, quite possibly, Sylvia's goofiest moment! XD As for that being correct? Honestly, I feel reeeeaaalllyyy bad saying this, but I'm not even sure I know, anymore. O_O I know, I know, what a terrible cop-out answer, right? But it's the truth! I guess it's probably best to try a top 5, in no particular order:

- Sylvia, Thyone, Simona, Faeyline, and Yvette

The more I think about it, though, it probably is Sylvia, since I've been leaning on her, attention-wise, more and more. Thyone's still my avatar, though, heh heh.

It's very troublesome. If I can't import the rigged mes, then I can't give my tentacles IK controls.
Bones are needed in any item that has any sort of physic (i.e the eel) or IK control.

There's a mod that gives you a secondary "move/rotate control" so you don't need to zoom out.
Not sure on which mod it may be. TMV sent me a pack with quite a few, I'll have to peek around a bit.
sin07
I know nothing about modding but that sounds troublesome.

These tentacles are little difficult to work with, mostly because they are really long. It's hard to position them correctly since you have to zoom out to move them around :/

I noticed they added new cum items in the Liquid section of the items. This is actually great since there needed to be more cum objects I feel. What's even better is that they are colorable too, so it can be also used to make slime!
Syncroz
Indeed there's a lot of fun ahead.
Though my tentacles seem to have to wait, having problem with importing my rigged meshes.
Donno why it's a problem now, it hasn't been an issue before. I could try to let SB3UG rig
a un-rigged mesh but it can be picky to get it right.
sin07
I finally updated my studio and the FK tentacles are f'n amazing! You weren't kidding there's like a 100 nodes lol. This will make things so much more fun

Most animation companies don't seem to have the budget, or the good direction to adapt the manga into well made anime. I do hope to see the pictures for the anime before the release.
progste
If they did things properly it would take 3 or 4 episodes with each more important scene taking about 10 minutes, it is possible this is what they'll do but it's not the only problem I see.
Looking at their other anime adaptations they seem to cheap out on animations and detailed movements, that means in many scenes the characters move as if they were a cardboard cutout being moved up and down. I hope this is not what will happen but I am reasonably weary of it.
K
It shouldn't be too challenging for the company to adapt the Shoku manga into an anime. The scenes are already in order, I just wonder how many minutes each chapter will take.
T
Oh, really? I would have thought it was that Lord guy or some of the other girls, since her hair and look is so distinctive, I feel like I'd remember seeing her.

My passion started with creating new girls, actually; the studio stuff, in the grand scheme of things, is a relatively new venture, for me (PlayClub was my first). But yeah, The Sims was when I first started having fun with creating! (Yes, the first one, lol)
Yes, you should indeed showcase 'em! You're not the only one who has too many characters; girls, in my case. I've been lazy with guys. -_-
Ha ha, that would be my sig gif, lol. You should know, though, that I don't think I've updated that post since around February. I've made some changes (and MORE girls) since then.

Thanks, I very much appreciate that you noticed that. : ) I feel like such a snob about them and others, though, because I can't help but judge whether or not others are taking their time, as well. I say this, because, many times I'd see that the girl's profile is an absolute mess, which never ceases to amaze me that the creator would overlook such an important detail. I mean, they should look good from all angles, right? To be fair, though, beauty is in the eye, bla bla bla, or maybe they're not trying to make what they feel are beautiful.
I try to make my girls beautiful, to me, but give them their flaws as personality quirks, you know? Still, all of them have flaws, looks-wise, and I know they aren't everyone's cup of tea.

Out of curiosity, who would you guess was my signature/favorite girl?

P.S.: I'll wager you've created around twice the amount of girls I have! XD (Don't know why... call it a hunch?)
Something like... 65?
T
Duh, don't know why I didn't think of that in the first place.
For individual pics, IMGcave works perfectly; probably better than imgbox was, too.

No, that I don't. Still, I won't blame it all on RL circumstances, sometimes it's just me having an unproductive or uninspired day.
That's life for ya!

Artists has always been somewhat screwed over to a certain degree. It has gotten somewhat better
these days, with a few exceptions.

The IK issue with big heads was fixed with a extra patch to the update that caused the issue, the fix is also found
in that pastebin doc. And no, I haven't noticed any particular issues so far.

I have wanted IK for items since my PPD/PRO days, so this update is gold!
sin07
That's some solid advice there man I greatly appreciate it! I'm not planning to drop everything to start my own business or freelancing just yet. Once I finish school I'm planning to work with a company and build my skills until I am confident enough to go on my own. It's going to take some planning and great effort to get to that point but that's my goal for the future, so I have something to strive to. Artists have it pretty tough eh? I've heard about illustrators not getting paid for their drawings and now graphic designers not getting paid for their work either. Pretty disheartening to hear but I guess that's all part of the artist lifestyle.

I sent the link in your PM for the tentacle items. I hope that it's easier to work with and can look as good as advertised.

You know I've always hoped that your monsters and tentacles had movable limbs so this new item FK is like a dream come true for us. What a great time to be a studio user!

I guess I'll update my Honey Select. Have you noticed any issues like weird IK/FK or giant heads? I've been hearing about these from recent updates and I'm not sure if they have been fixed.
Syncroz
Well, I do it for fun too, I enjoy it a lot so I could as well work with it.
Pretty much everything I know 'bout it is self taught, so "somethings that you wish you knew when you started out" is a rather long list.
Being a graphic designer is not always an easy task, you'll throw yourself into a field with hungry competitors if you plan to do some freelancing, or even run your own company.
Dropping everything to start a own company might not be the wisest of moves (I'll assume that you ain't planning to do that). Start out with having it as a side thing next to some other
kind of job, it may be much better for your wallet. Many graphics designers here does the same thing, I can't speak for the rest of the world though!
It also happens that customers doesn't want to pay the bill, so prep yourself for that you might do a lot of work for nothing. I can't quite say
how often it might happen or not. It can be quite common here from time to time.

Well, just send a link if you want it in. I'll take a look at it. And yes, the other one was pretty crappy in a sense. I almost went for re-texturing everything
cause it would have been way easier than chopping up everything in submeshes.

I don't have a clue about when the update is supposed to be out, and today for you is almost "tomorrow" for me. Midnight is just 1½ hour away.

Edit: Alright, I got my hands on the new update, and the IK for the items seem to work as I hoped. Time to rig some tentacles and monsters.
sin07
Awesome thanks for the link! The update should be out today right?

Hey if it's less work than that's all the better! I was able to find a very high quality tentacle item that is used for some kind of poser program, perhaps Daz3D. http://www.renderotica.com/store/cat/173_Creatures-Animals/sku/57016_Tentacle-5. I have the file and I'll upload it if you're interested in it. It seems to be in .obj like the other files I sent you before but those are pretty crappy looking. I don't think you should even bother with those other ones I sent you. Perhaps you can add this newer item to your arsenal at some point whenever you decide to update HoH, if it's not a bother to you that is.

Hey so I noticed your occupation says you are a Graphics Designer? I always thought you did graphics design for fun, I didn't realize it was your occupation. I am enrolled into a Graphics Design program coming September and looking to get an occupation in the field as well. Which I plan to combine with my photography and eventually start my own company or even do freelancing. Do you have any tips for beginning or maybe somethings that you wish you knew when you started out?
Valefors
why nervous?? you are batgirl xD so you should know you are smart and tough xD
so don't feel nervous xD
T
Just went through those, some familiar stuff! I'm positive you're missing quite a bit (mostly between the two of us), but that's understandable.

As for me, I've been busy with company all week, and it doesn't seem like that will change for the rest of it.
So... unfortunately, I haven't been as productive as I'd like to be. : /
