as much as we all love a townie looking like they live in a house with no mirrors && as much as we get attached to premades who've made it so far in the sims franchise (the pancakes, the goths, the pleasant sisters) - does anyone sit there (like me) for hours and hours making them fit a different time? or the aesthetic of their games?post photos below o:) so far i've made over the goths (made them very addams family) - the pancakes (the newest indie "baddie" couple on the block)

I'll see a townie walk by and be like "what's yer name, lad?" (or lass) "Right then, into CAS with ye, let's see if we can't make ye look a bit more like ye belong here."You can read that in either a Scottish or a talk-like-a-pirate accent, incidentally, since I'll use both when talking to the screen when (as always) there's nobody here in the room but me playing.

Or is that the pirate one? I suppose it doesn’t matter. I’d be like (very much Irish and alone in my room) “Right so lads, stop acting the maggot!! Ye either leg it or I’ll “maintain” ye with me MCCC” which I do anyway in case I’m so overwhelmed by their hideousness that I have to obliterate them before I get a chance to sympathize and spare the poor fe-ckers. Back on topic: I only did a Goth make-over once. I prefer creating my own Sims and let the NPC's be. Here's Bella Goth, although I call her H.e.-ll-s Bells.I dare you to look into her pretty eyes and tell me why I call her that? >:) Spoiler (Highlight to read) https://i.ibb.co/fQMSKGV/GOTH.gif https://i.ibb.co/fQMSKGV/GOTH.gif

@CAPTAIN_NXR7 bella looks gawwwwwjus ?? (chef's kiss)my bella goth (you can see a snippet in my profile photo) is a proper..edgy "morticia".. - very sex-ual in touch with her feminine qualities. ??

Makeovers?! | EA Forums

I have a bunch of saves. And as a general rule, I don't makeover pre-mades unless they come around a lot or turn up everywhere my Sim goes. In the save I am currently playing, for example, Nina Caliente is the yoga instructor at my Sims' favourite Spa and one of my active households lives in Oasis Springs. So I gave Johnny Zest and the Caliente household a makeover.

@Netzspannung - i gave johnny a full blown re-vamp when my not so berry sim took a shining to him, i couldnt allow them to be together with him in his natural form.

(i will be on sims tonight and try to sort photos ?)

i do love what you have done with Katrina, Nina and Dina Caliente and Don Lothario - i think he looks even more like a player now than he did before

I never give makeovers to townies or pre-mades. Some look decent and some are terrifying (townies), but as in real life, not everybody needs to have model look and perfect features so I leave them in peace. But when my sim is getting close to one, then I will help them a little in CAS. I tried not to change features too much just correct some weirdness like ridiculously large lips or lack of chin and they get wardrobe overhaul. But the main goal is to let them still resemble “themselves”.

I am more likely to replace them than make them over, but I did have to make over the Don Lothario and the Calientes.
One day I will create a save where Bella disappears to Strangerville with no memory of her husband and children and play the game TS2 style.

I don't care for EA's revision of the Calientes.
Nina and Dina's mother was N i g h a t Caliente, not Katrina, and their mother died when they were children.
So Katrina is out of the picture and out of the game. I am also making them over

That household description is from The Sims 2 by the way.

And we are going old school with remakes of their old TS2 homes.

Don is here only temporarily, until I can build some relationships. ;)
Spoiler

Dina:
Traits: Materialistic/Goofball/Slob
Aspiration: Mansion Baron
Career: Sticking with culinary for now.

Nina:
Traits: Jealous/Self-assured/Neat
Aspiration: Soulmate
Career: Something with different hours from Dina (convenient for Don.)

Don:
Traits: Romantic/Self-assured/Non-committal.
Aspiration: Serial Romantic
Career: Doctor (Similar to original TS2 career)

And now that Dina is away, Nina will play.

Nina is now established as Don's main squeeze.

Time for that bachelor pad, Don needs his own place.

Right next door.

Having down working as a doctor is kind of creepy, but yeah, he will be hitting on patients and staff.
He's not some bulky, body-building, tattooed bro.

Dina was really hot. He's going to have to invite her over some time, when Nina is at work.

@Ellupelluellu - i love what you've done with her, i don't see her that often so it's nice to see what people do with the townies i don't tend to bump into

No I don't do that since their appearance is quit iconic. I can tell from far that Bella Goth, Nancy landgraab or Bob Pancakes is moving around in the background. In the game I do play the Landgraabs I have changed Nancy's outfit since the one she is wearing is not a good representation of a tough business tycoon.

Oh, I have so much fun giving the townies/premades makeovers. I think I do that more than actually playing the game.
I use alpha CC, though, so they're not everyone's cup o tea.
Examples:

If anyone knows of a good alpha hand mod, that'd be great. I'm tired of the chunky fingers!
