Makeovers

Yes, I do make-overs on every premade as well as any wandering souls I lay eyes on. This weekend I gave all my worlds in one save a total overhaul. I deleted every premade family such as the Landgrabs and Disco Dynamos, the Roomies. Even the Goths weren't spared. I went into manage worlds and went through all the Sims remaining and they all received make-overs because I want all new Sims and families set up for Seasons. Not only did I delete our beloved long-time Sims such as the Goths and Landgrabs but I deleted their homes as well. Then proceeded to move all the community lots to Newcrest. Willow Creek is now all residential with a lot of empty lots left to fill. I am going to hit Oasis Springs next but Johnny Zest is already gone. He was taken away during my first round of deleting frenzy. But it takes a lot of work to do make-overs. I try to keep the CC on them to a minimum but that changes if it is an attractive and interesting Sim. One I would like to add to my main family in the future. I realize many Simmers are attached to the older families like the Goths. But they have been in the game since the beginning and there are only so many stories left to tell about them after nearly eighteen years. LOL I thought it was time to let them go and add some characters of my own.

I make over premades and townies all the time. Pretty much everyone gets a make over excpet the Goths and Pancakes who I never bother playing and just delete.

Do you ever give a townie or a premade sim a makeover???

I've changed their hair and changed their clothes. They are always happy with the results.

I almost always give my townies makeovers, and when I get tired of premade Sim looks or if they have aged, the premade sims get makeovers. For one thing, not all of my CAS custom content is always set to no random, and in my test saves, I often move CAS content in and out of the Mods folder. So I have to give the townies makeovers so that they are not missing hair, tops, pants, formalwear, and the like.

Also, if it looks like they are committing a fashion crime, I always give them a makeover. I dislike clashing clothes. I prefer my townies not to dress like its laundry day and they had nothing else to wear (ie besides pin-striped pants and a tee shirt) while grocery shopping.

I only give makeovers to the ones I intend to play or that are friends with my played sims. You could say my sims have to "earn" their makeovers by catching my interest.

Of a few premades (Goth, Caliente, Amber, Renegades) I keep library copies that I swap out for the originals at the start of a new game to save time.

I make premade sims and townies over all the time. With the premade sims I try to be very subtle about it, when it comes to their features, because I do think they made them with a lot of character. But some of the kids just do not age up right. Alexander Goth is a prime example for that. My last case of extreme makeover was Evie though, the toddler from the Delgato family in Brindelton Bay. One of the kids in the family I was playing made good friends with her and I thought it would be cute if they would fall in love as teenagers. A day after he aged up I invited her over and was pretty shocked.

So I had to help the girl out.

Now they moved in together and got married, all thanks to CAS surgery. :)

I had this sim since 2015, she is my all time favorite I change up her outfits ALL the time. I've never changed any physical features of her but she always looks like a different person.

Yes - I love giving premades makeovers.

Here are Dina and Nina in my current game (looking tense because there was a fire in their house):

I give premades minor makeovers all the time. It's amazing how much a simple skin overlay and fresh hair and clothes can completely change a sim for the better. Some premades that seem a little "meh" are really just suffering from the wrong hair/clothes *cough* malcolmlandgraablooksamazingwithaminormakeoverandislowkeymyfavoritesim*cough*. Still haven't figured out how to fix Nina Caliente. Her face shape is stubborn.

I only give townies makeovers if I want my sims to date/marry/become bffs with them. Soemtimes there are certain townies that appear everywhere that I love and want to help out (there's this one DJ named Rieko Watanabe in Windenburg that I want to give a punk makeover and a barista named Theo Ball I want to look more polished). But for the most part I don't touch them.

Best Nina makeover I've seen, ever. Kudos!

I live for how you made her look better while at the same time let her keep her original features. It's not to the point where you don't recognize her and I like that you didn't go overboard yet at the same time she looks drastically better.
