Title: Another good Free Site has left...A little help?
Post by: Randomness on 2007 March 11, 08:22:33
Lamentably, I just discovered that Sim Guys (http://www.simguys.net) has apparently closed down. This makes me very sad, as they had a lot of good clothes specifically for the male sim. This also distresses me mightily, since I had a bit of a problem with my game and my Downloads folder has been wiped clean. I am quite desperate to retrieve a mesh that I had downloaded from there if anyone can help me out. Here is a picture of what the mesh/clothing looks like:

I fortunately had the sense to package up my favorite Sim that I've created on my own, but I need to track down the meshes for him, and the clothes mesh is the only one that I seem to have a problem getting a hold of. If anyone could help me recover this mesh, I would be eternally grateful.  8)

ETA: Oh, damn it. I posted in the wrong forum, didn't I? *smacks self silly* Sorry about that. If PirateBooty would like to move this thread into the Arr? forum, that'd be great. Sorry about that. Apparently I can't multitask too well. :(

If you read his message you'd see he isn't gone for good.  He'll be back.  (And I know that doesn't help you on your mesh hunt right now. ;p)

I thought all the content used was picked up when you packaged a sim in BodyShop,  maybe you still have the needed meshes.

Yes, I know (hope?) he'll be back, but I was hoping that someone out there might have the mesh that I'm looking for so I wouldn't have to wait for an indeterminate amount of time to get my Sim working properly again.

And I checked the packaged Sim, and no, the mesh is not included since I don't have Pets. :(

you could try contacting him. I dont think he makes meshes so he would have either linked to the mesh or included it in the download file.
That shorts mesh looks like it is one of RabidAngels (SimChic/SimsConnection), go to your downloads folder and search for: MESH_RabidAngelamATHBoardShorts
She allows redistribution of her meshes so he should have included it.

His site has been closed for awhile, since Elau closed.

Actually, as it turns out, the mesh was from a completely different site, DJSims. I was pointed in that direction by someone from The Sims 2 Communnity (le gasp!). Thanks for the advice though.

Although I still say that it's a shame that a free site such as Sims Guys has closed down, even if it is only temporarily.

Sim Guys closed down for a while before, but they reopened. So I hope this is only temporary. It's one of my favorite sites for male clothing.  :(

Oh, and I've been meaning to ask this for a long time. Denimjo, where is your avatar from, and is it gankable for use on lj (with heaps of credit and boobies, of course)?

It's already ON LJ. ^^ :wink: I got it off there last year sometime. I'd assume the answer is yes...but I'll shut up so he can answer. :oops:  :lol:

I'm hoping this one comes back as well. Decent male clothing (that isn't shemale, frumpy Maxis recolors, TSR fodder, or weird bondage gear) is already at a premium.
