I am still alive.... :D

Hello everyone!
I disappeared, but I have an excuse. (it's nice how it is)
I have devoted the past period to studying and I think it has been quite productive weeks.
Among my many works in progress are bodyshop mesh repair, conversion and repair of jewelry, hats and other accessories, conversion of items from other games (for now only deco stuff).
And of course practicing the dreaded bone assignment.

But I also devoted a lot of time to researching these game extracts.

The place I found a real treasure trove is deviantart, where I've been sharing photos of my own drawings, crafts, and Sims 2 stuff for years.

If you are interested, you can find it here

The XPS and xnalara communities, like us, are a generous bunch who really pour out the best artwork and other game extracts.
(Note that I had no idea about this until I discovered "xnalara" on Mila Smith's - Mila Sims World website under some really cool stuff.)

In honor of the people who create the basis of my work, here is a list of those to whom we owe these beautiful meshes and textures
VERY IMPORTANT! Strictly MATURE CONTENT!
These excellent creators do not make their creations for children. Be careful and, if possible, be free of any prejudices! Thanks!

Since I'm still taking horribly bad in-game photos, I asked for help and got it. Kidinthenight (Historical Sims team) and Epo (PBK) undertook the testing and the photography as well.

Musketeer hat from Lineage 2 Revolution mobilgame. Original conversion Vlthar
There will be a male's version soon

Ring of Emperor Emhyr var Emreis (The Witcher)

"Lannister" recolor

Separated collar from the dress of Grand Duchess Katharina by Lowedeus. It doesn't have Maxis size yet, but it will.

A "franken mesh".
The barbette hat was made by Wawa, the veil was part of one of Helga's hairstyles.

Bipsouille's Tudor or French headdress, which was also part of a hairstyle.
I struggled with it a lot before it became a stand-alone accessory.
I sincerely thank Theraven, who hastened to help me with his good advice here as well.
The veil is Cynnix's Simple veil because the original veil became unusable after export.

The necklace comes from The Witcher game. Its original extract and xnlara conversion are the work of Moogleoutfitter, re-uploaded to Deviantart by SonYuMe.

This bonnet is made of Cynnix's Flemish Hood and Mussi's sailor bow, which I designed especially for my Hungarian clothes. LizCrea helped put this into final form.
I thank him for a lot of help and inspiration.

This decorative comb is my greatest pride. I created it from pieces of The Witcher jewelry.

This collar is by Kozakowy. You can see it here with the corresponding clothes and jewelry.

The outfit was converted by Lezishell.

Kidinthenight's photos:

This was the first version of old hat.
We made the final version with Cupcakeyy, in which the flowers are not like this. The reason is that the polygon count of this version was a bit high, and I was unsure about that, so I sent another mesh to CK instead. But in the end - I think - everyone decides for himself what his machine can handle.
I cut the hat from a VitaSims hatter's hair and then put different decorations on it. The feathers - if I remember correctly - come from one of Lidiqnata's hairstyles, and the flowers from one of Ran417's beautiful Chinese flower arrangements.

Another necklace from Princess Anna Henrietta's treasure chest. (The Witcher - Blood and Wine)
And there will be more.
These jewels have a great feature. The gems are surrounded by an alpha-editable socket, which gives me quite a bit of room for my imagination.

TS3 conversion. The texture is not very good. But this is just a test.
The TS3 collection called India Inspire - or something like that - included two beautiful hairstyles that had the jewelry removed during the conversion. Fortunately, only with alpha editing, so the mesh of the jewels remained on the mesh.
This one belonged to a beautiful hairstyle called Elegant Teardrop.
Now it is a piece of jewelry that can be used independently.
And as you can see in the photo, it looks quite good on other types of hairstyles.

The Beauclaire-necklace. Also Witcher stuff.
Among the characters extracted by Mougleoutfitters, it is worn by a lady from Beauclaire.

Anna Henrietta's tiara. I plan to make it as a crown as well, because now it's just a semicircular piece of jewelry.

Oh, the Tangled tiara. Attention, highpoly.
But it was so beautiful that I couldn't miss it.

Another cute photo of the Spanish collar, which - as you can see - looks good even on a Regency lady.

A truly queenly tiara converted from the Smite game by Lezishell. I brought it from him.
I don't know the game, so I don't know who Chang'e is, but the lady has a few other cool things that I plan to "steal"

XNAShane among his conversions, I found a rather scary little girl, who, however, has exactly the kind of bonnet I've been wanting for a long time.
I successfully converted it to TS2, however, during testing we found with kidinthenight that it is unfortunately too small and can only be used for very solid-sized hairdos. That's why I made a wider and taller version, which was based on SkySims "Helena" hairstyle.
