If You Can Hear Me Now Why Don't You Recall (Newsea HitTheLights Moose'd)

So I'm back. I didn't die, its just that my senior year is a lot of work, and I have to prepare my repertoire for colleges (vocal performance friggyeah), and I've also admittedly been doing a lot of partying when I could have been retexturing and fixing. I think I might try a bit harder to post like at least two things every month, but I can't promise anything and it isn't likely. Sorry kids, I'm busy, and you all have other retexturers to do things for you. Unless you actually care about in-game function, in which case that really sucks for you and I'm really sorry.

So this hair was weird, so I fixed the shape and redid everything. I made it less floaty, and added a lot of bone assignments, and also added a thin morph. Also, I redid the textures, of course.
But then again, in fixing everything, I also ruined everything. There are a lot more clipping issues as a result of the hair being closer. Basically, It is closer to the boobs and to the shoulders and to the face, and clips with all of them sometimes. BUT MORPHS WORK, MUAHAHAHAA.

This song is based on a song by Skrillex, (I know what you're thinking single person who likes my retextures and also happens to like the music that I post, Skrillex is music for 10 year old boys who think they're badass, and you're very correct, but this song has ELLIE GOULDING IN IT) and Ellie Goulding called Summit. Huzzah.

This hairstyle is 8,382 Polygons in LOD0, and 6,654 Polygons in LOD1. I think LOD1 might be higher than Newsea's original, but I made this so long ago that I don't remember at all. Either way, most if not all of you should be able to run it no problem.

*This hairstyle is in the hat section for teen through elder females only. C'mon kids, you should know that I almost never make child and toddler versions of things.*

This thingiemajig is compatible with breast and fat sliders. The face may clip at full fatness, but I don't remember.

I would be honored if you would like to use this retexture/fix in a video or photoshoot, so by all means go ahead, no credit necessary (although appreciated GREATLY). Please do not reupload anywhere else, unless you're bundling with a Sim upload, in which case I require credit. Please do not retexture this until 3 weeks have passed from today. That means that if you do decide to retexture my version of this, please do not post it until October 17th, 2012. Please give me credit in your post. Please don't steal my textures or claim as your own, but other than that, enjoy!

'Cause When I'm Standing Here In The Dark, I See Your Face In Every Star (Newsea Lullaby Moose'd)

So I'm going to be brief, because I want to do other things today.

I've always liked this hair, hated how high it was and the lack of breast slider compatibility. I've fixed all that. YAY. This is quite likely my last version of this hair, as it is now flawless. Ba-bam bam.

Hair's name is based on an Ellie Goulding song. Ellie Goulding is just wonderful.

This hairstyle is 12,408 polygons in LOD0 and 7,543 in LOD1. LOD1 is higher than the original because the original looked weird in-game. I hope most of you can run it, but it is on the higher poly side. 

*This hairstyle is available for teen-elder females only. There's no way a toddler would have hair like this. Also I'm horribly lazy*

This hairstyle is compatible with fat and breast sliders. Somehow I managed to make fat and thin morphs for this hair without having it explode, I feel like a superhero.

Please let me know if you have any issues so I can do my best to fix them. 

Please feel free to use this version of this hairstyle for anything you like, including picture taking or video making. I only ask that you do not reupload anywhere unless it is with a sim bundle, in which case I ask that you mention me by name and maybe link back here. Also, you may retexture this hair and all hairs prior as long as it has been more than 3 weeks since their release. For example, you may retexture this hair, but I'd rather you not post it until August 9th, 2012. Please don't claim as your own, please don't steal my textures. 

Pull Your Little Arrows Out And Let Me Live My Life (Newsea KissJasmine Moose'd)

You know the drill, I've already retextured this. As a matter of fact, this version has the same mesh, and very similar textures. The difference is that this version has fat and breast slider compatibility.
This version is basically Reis' version with breast sliders and an added thin morph which explains the slight clipping in the black image. Honestly though, I believe that I've perfected this hair at this point.

I was actually going to post this a while ago, but then I realized that I wanted to post something else, and I had already taken the pictures, so I just waited for a color cycle to pass instead. I know, I'm terrible.

This hairstyle's name is based on Metric's song Sick Muse.

This hairstyle is 9,448 polygons in LOD0, and 6,254 in LOD1. The original has the same amount of polys for LOD0, but my LOD1 is higher because I thought that the original was fugly in-game. Most if not all of you should be able to run it.

*This hairstyle is available for females of all ages, but the child versions are still Newsea's originals with my textures on them. They are also default replacement, which means that they won't conflict with anything else.*

This hairstyle is now compatible with breast sliders and fat sliders.

Please let me know if you have any issues at all with this hairstyle or if you believe that this doesn't display in game like it does for me for some odd reason. The purpose of my sharing this with you is so that you can enjoy it as much as I do. 

Please feel free to use this hairstyle for anything your heart desires, but please don't reupload it ANYWHERE. You may only upload in a sim bundle, and in that case I want you to link back to this site. You can retexture this version without asking, I don't mind, as it was actually done by Reis, and her policy is that people don't even have to ask to modify her work. Please give me credit for my morphs an breast slider compatibility. Please don't claim as your own, and please don't steal my textures. 

I Ain't Got The Time, And If My Daddy Thinks I'm Fine (Newsea Spotlight Moose'd)

I'm very very aware that I've done this hairstyle before, I'll explain why I did it again in a bit, but I'm going to go on a very short rant here. (The rant is in asterisks)
**My issue with the sims community is that no one actually helps anyone else. Back when I first did this hair everyone told me I sucked, and after taking a look at my work, I'd have to say I agree with the fact that I REALLY REALLY sucked. But the problem was that a lot of other people would tell me that my work was great, and that I should just ignore the trolls, and I did. As a result of ignoring them, I kept cranking out terrible stuff, and I've been cranking out terrible stuff ever since. My issue is that I'm learning as I go, but that means that every time I learn something new, all of my prior work is no longer relevant. For example, I just got rid of all the hairs in my game from before April. The reason I did this is because I simply cannot use them in-game anymore, I can't put them on a Sim and then watch the Sim wear those hairs anymore, because all I can see is how bad they are. I threw out a majority of them because they tend to stick out literally feet in front of my sims, but some of them were due to bad bone assignments. I'd like to know when I'm going to stop cranking out things that I'm going to get rid of a month later. Because of everything I've learned, my standards for hair in-game are ridiculous. I can't use Anubis fixes anymore. I'm actually getting to the point where I can't use any hair that anyone else makes with the exception of Cazy and Reis.
I don't really know what to do, or where I'm going with this, I'm just frustrated. Now that I know how to make meshes work almost exactly the way I want them to, I can't put anyone else's work in my game. Its driving me nuts. I'm just going to go back and do all of my favorite hairs all over again. I think I'm going to start with Newsea, because most of Newsea's stuff has a really good foundation, and I can edit their stuff as opposed to fully converting everything. I have a hair by SkySims and one by Butterfly in the works, but I don't really have the patience to fix their sloppiness.
And I know how horrible this sounds, but where is my recognition? I put so much work into these meshes and I feel like no one cares because I'm not Anubis. Maybe I would have been better off stopping when everyone told me I should have. But hey, no one is telling me to stop now.
I guess encouragement is better than telling someone to stop creating because with time, the creator will get a lot better if they're willing to teach themselves. I'm just miffed because I spent a year cranking out trash.

Quick life update: I've been doing a lot of socializing and partying, and I went on a first date with this really nice guy last night. Which is why I haven't been posting. I have 3 hairs ready to post at this point, and I'm only just now taking and editing pictures.
Is it normal to meet your date at 7PM and get dropped off back home at 2AM? I mean, we watched a movie, but how long do dates typically last? Even without the movie we were able to stand each other for 5 hours, and that means our whole date lasted a total of 7 hours. It wasn't boring, it wasn't uncomfortable, and I didn't feel pressured into having sex with him, it was just nice. It's actually really great, because I never thought that anyone would be attracted to me, but I guess he must have been, otherwise why did he ask me out and why did he deal with me for 7 hours? I want to go out with him again. Is it a good sign? I mean to those of you who have dated, does dinner and a movie and then sitting on the beach talking for hours warrant a good date? I'm new to all of this. Rant over.**

^Sorry about the wall of text.^I liked this hairstyle, but I thought it was too massive to be a thing, so I shrank it. The bone assignments are Newsea's but I added some minor breast assignments, because I added a thin morph and it clipped with shirts by Icia23. Only Icia23, strangely enough. I guess her stuff has big boobs than most other stuff. Unfortunately, the tips CAN look a tiny bit squashed when Breasts are at maximum size, but its better than clipping, in my opinion. Oh by the way this hair has a new experimental texture. The EA version doesn't use my texture as a diffuse, it uses EA textures. I'm taking EA control to a new level, everyone!

By the way, shout out to Reis, who helped me fix the hair when it looked like this(the hair was meant to be blonde in that image. Reis is a life saver).

This hairstyle's name is based on Amy Winehouse's song Rehab. The fact that she's dead makes me sad. What makes me sadder is that I didn't have as much of an appreciation for her when she was alive, and now that she's dead, I love her work. What does that say about me?

This hairstyle is 12,806 polygons in LOD0. In LOD1, this version is 7,913 polygons. The original version had a LOD1 with somewhere around 5,000 polygons, but it was ugly in-game, so I made it prettier, but also bigger.

*This hairstyle is only available for teen-elder females. I don't usually support children having ridiculous hair, I  was not in the mood for converting my version for kids and toddlers, especially because its so dang glamorous.*

Somehow this hair is compatible with breast sliders AND fat sliders despite being so crazy high poly.

These Friends of Ours, They Seem Pretend (Newsea Shepherd Moose'd)

Your first question may be why this took so long. It took much longer than expected, because while I was ready to post this a few days ago, I was at a friend's house and he suddenly told me about our plans to go be extras in a film being shot up in LA. I had never heard of these plans, and I literally got back today. So I mean, I didn't really have any opportunity to post this until now, so I'm sorry.

When I saw this I loved it for its simplicity. Another reason to love this hair is the polycount, because it is so low. That isn't sarcasm, the whole thing is just under 9,000 polys. My issue was the height of the whole thing, and the claw boobies and such and so forth. So I took it into Milkshape and shrank the top down so that it fit the head better, and then I redid all the bone assignments and VIOLA! it was perfect. Or so I thought. When I got it in game, I found a minor squiggle that I accidentally created in the mesh. You can see it here and here. I'm really sorry, but I played a very long time with it in game, and the squiggle didn't even bother me, and I couldn't get over how much better it was and how well it works in-game. Also, I am aware of the clipping. The clipping shown in the black image happened on that model because her ears were further back than is normal, so if your sims have weird ears, that is a problem, but not mine. The clipping in the brown and control images over the breasts is due to my addition of thin morphs. Most hairs only have base and fat morphs so that the hair works with all weight, but mine has thin morphs so thin sims don't have floating hair, but that means in certain ridiculous animated positions, clipping may occur because of the increase of closeness to the breasts. 

This hairstyle's title is based on lyrics from a song called No. 1 Against The Rush by Liars. Enjoy, its beautiful, and the music video is pretty nuts.

*This hairstyle is available for all ages, although only the fix is for teen-elder females, the child and toddler versions are exactly like Newsea's but don't have the accessory and were repacked with DABOOBS because they have no morphs anyway, and I have no desire to make them. *

This hairstyle is compatible with breast and fat sliders (also thin sliders).
