Love You More Than Those Bitches Before (Skysims 02 Moose'd)

So as soon as Skysims suddenly appeared on TSR I was really excited. I went ahead and I stalked them like crazy, and I figured out that they are NOT in fact, Butterflysims, but DID work for Butterfly. Then they were offered an FA position at TSR and took it. I looked through all the stuff that SkySims was going to post in the future, and I saw this one immediately. I looked at it, and I KNEW that I had to fix it, so here it is.

Additionally, this is pretty much my first 'real' fix. I mean, I've messed with meshes many times before, but I actually made this hair breast slider compatible this time. I was also going to add fat morphs, and I actually made them successfully, but the hair decided it was in the mood to explode after I added them, unfortunately. Long story short, I managed to fix the hair and add fat morphs and breast slider compatibility, but when I stuck it in game, the tiny strands of hair threw a fit when I made my sim fatter, they exploded, basically, so I remade the whole thing with only breast sliders and it works just fine, unfortunately, because I had to move the whole thing down, I had to redo the bone assignments, and the animation is no longer as smooth as it used to be (as you can see in the first image), but I'm new to it, and the animation is still better than most peggy hairs, so I guess you'll just have to choose between nice animations or a fixed head and breast sliders. Also, for some reason, Sky messed up the control when she meshed this, so at some points, this hair has roots as tips and tips as roots in all versions.

In the future, I will always do my best to add slider support if possible unless I legitimately believe that the hair won't need the sliders.

Additionally, some people have said that they have trouble with Castle.so, which is my new file sharing client, and it turns out that mediafire is compatible with adf.ly again, so I will continue to use mediafire, I will also add alternate links to the two hairs that use Castle.

This hair's title is based on lyrics from Lana Del Rey's Blue Jeans. The song is beautiful, I really love it.

Catch Phrase!
This hairstyle is 11,108 polygons in LOD0, and 5,576 polys in LOD1. The hair is a bit high poly for  some games, but most should be able to run it. 
*This hairstyle is available for females of all ages and is non-default, so you can have more than one version in game, just in case you really want to have a normal version and an alien headed version.*



DISCLAIMER: I did not mesh this, but I did fix it, add breast sliders, and make my own textures for it. 

If you enjoy what I do, then please comment, subscribe, or like my facebook page.

I Will Love You Till The End Of Time,
Moosie

P.S.: If you have any issues with my work, then please let me know so I can fix it. 
Go ahead and use my work for whatever, but please don't upload it anywhere else unless you're bundling with a sim download in which case I ask that you give me credit. Please ask before using my mesh fix, and please don't steal my textures.
