THANKS THIS IS GREAT

thank you dusdee Smiley I yonked from...... argh short term memory loss Sad It's in a recent thread around here somewhere.....

To me the sims store hairs are "ok." That's about it. If there wasn't an outfit I liked I personally would have the hairs (I can't get rid of them without deleting the outfit.) The one that looks like Adele's is okay, but I like how adele's seems fuller. The curly hair had real promise, but then they gave it that gigantic forehead that just ruined it. Even with Hp's fix for it it still seems off on some of my simmies.....



That's because they didn't animate it.  All other hairs I think they've done [ eaxis] that isn't an updo of some sort, is animated - even the hair for that one sim they released has animated hair, and its curly-ish too.

I might be overly picky, but hair should move - I've got enough frozen in place hair in my MMOs [ except for AoC which has this gorgeously animated stuff.]

Unless the animation is done by peggy. I'd rather have cardboard hair than peggy's possessed hairs. ick.

Speaking of Peggy

Don't shoot, but seriously, even though Peggy is pay (and we can get it for free anyway  Roll Eyes ) I prefer Peggy's crap over Helga's.
Although Helga's probably gap-less, I think her textures are kind of eh....

Maybe so. But, Helga is free, and we don't bitch about free stuff on here.

Some of her earlier textures aren't that great, but she's improved exponentially. We all have a learning curve, and I couldn't do it nearly as well as her. Plus, no gap.

Yes but as the mesh is free, so is available easily for more people, there are plenty of good retextures/recolours of it around, such as this by IcedMango , these by drpixelfan, these also at SimsCave, maxis-match ones by Rissa...and probably more  Tongue

I respect anyone that can create good stuff because I've tried and I can't do it. It ain't easy and my (non-existent) hat is off to all of the people that provide us this stuff for free so we can liven up and improve our games. Thanks, guys!

I like Helga's hairs, I just don't use them because they aren't animated at all.  Unless the hair is short or in an updo sort of style, I love having it move.

"Peggy's crap over helga's" meaning? Helga's is crap too? Helga's textures may not be perfect, but like the previous posters said, lots of beautiful free recolours are available. And peggy doesn't know the difference between blue, black and purple!

Oh my, get your panties out of a twist. I wasn't saying that Helga's hair is crap, I was just saying that I prefer Peggy's hair over Helga's, and yes I referred to Peggy's hair as crap, but not to Helga. Because you obviously find Peggy's hair crappy. And to me, the colors of the hair don't matter because I retexture them anyway. I just don't like the way Helga forms her meshes.
So thats why I like them better.

You shouldn't be so offended just because it's a free creator. I'm just stating my opinion.

And by the way, I don't like neck-gaps either, but I don't get disturbed by them as I use mainly long hairs.

So I am no way stating that it is a fact that Peggy's hair is better than Helga's, I'm just saying that it is my personal opinion that I like Peggy's hair better (to retexture).

Peggy's are better to retexture, that's true. Of course, one could argue that that because Helga's don't need to be retextured, they are superior. That, and they're made with love, not greed.

This isn't the place to praise pay creators period. We hate them here and want to destroy them. Read the FAQ and lurk moar.  There are plenty of forums where you can gush about Peggy, this isn't one of them.

For what it's worth, I don't like Helga's meshes either (or Peggy's, actually), but as long as she's not charging for them, it's hands off.  I figure if plenty of players like them, and she's not sucking money out of clueless people, then she's obviously contributing to the community, even if I don't like her stuff personally. Smiley

Here's one of Sunair's hair meshes (the front is...strange Lips sealed) versus infinitely nicer XM hair in a similar headband style:
