HUGE cc update
Added 2020-10-05 15:33:05 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
As mentioned a couple of days ago, I bulk-updated my cc for adult female sims. I mean everything you can see when you go to my downloads page and choose ‘adult female’ on the left. Yes, everything. Hats and accessories too. I added update notes to all the pieces, so you can check for each of them individually what has been changed. Here’s a general overview:
ALL the pieces were updated with a new display index number, which affects their position in CAS. The updated ones should all appear next to each other, in chronological order (+ folk stuff + carnival costumes). The only exceptions are my latest German sets, which had proper numbers assigned already from the start, and the Slavic beads, which got a complete overhaul and will be re-released soon.
MOST pieces got their lower lods corrected, so that they wouldn’t get all spiky when you zoom out.
SOME pieces had major exploding-in-lower-lods problems fixed. This applies especially to my earliest creations: the 1894 dress and both carnival costumes released last simblreen (Twilight and Rainbow). Also all 4 of my folk dresses, as mentioned already a couple of days ago.
A FEW pieces got some major visual upgrades. Again, I mean mostly my earliest releases: the beads, shortened Parisa bangs and the medievalish apron.
...Do I really have to redownload everything...?!
Not necessarily. If your sim details are set to high or very high, chances are you’ll never even get to see lower lods from close enough to notice any problems - just like I haven’t noticed them for a good year. But if you ever wanted to use a certain piece of mine and were disappointed with how it looks in game, now is the time to redownload it and try again. I swear, I checked everything (which doesn’t mean any oversights are impossible, I’m only human after all, but I’ve really tried).
As for CAS placement, it’s fully up to you. If you don’t care about such things, don’t bother redownloading every single piece of mine you have in your game (...though be aware that any new pieces of mine will appear way higher on the list - the number was changed from (usually) 75 to 17)! But if you like having stuff neatly organised, I think it’d be worth the hassle. Just look how nice it looks now:

Similar updates for men and other age groups will follow, but only in some time. It took some effort, as you can guess, so I’m a bit out of spoons right now. Please have some patience!
