my man eating a veggie burger

hello - I just wanted to ask how your food default project is going on. It is one thing that I am looking forward to so badly! :) Do you plan on making text only in simlish? Do you plan on switching every food into vegan or are you going to stick to the original food by the game? I personally stick to playing the game in simlish only (it helps me avoid downloading too much CC :D) Also, I think sticking to the original food could give more variety in the game as every sim can't be vegan.

Hello anon! :-D my project is going alright, but very slow 🤡 and I'm very happy to hear you're looking forward to it!! I'm planning on making every text simlish (if you're thinking about the text on the milk carton where it says "vegan" in English, I am planning on editing that one. I think I said that I might use English on there, but I take that back haha. I just have to find a nice simlish text-combo that fits).

As for the food, I am making everything vegan hehe. For me, animals (and their by-products) are not food. While I do understand not everyone can be vegan (everyone can do something though!) but sims aren't alive, so they don't have that problem of not being able to "not be vegan". It's a lot more fun for me personally making the food vegan, and, well, I started this project for me.. so, yeah. I will share it (like I usually do) since it might be useful/fun for people out there as well :-D sorry if this isn't the answer you wanted 🥺👉🏽👈🏽

Also, there are about 20,000 edible plants on earth, yet people only eat the same 5-6 types of animals. I personally think there is more variety to a plant-based diet than a carnivore one ;-)

Here is a sneak peak of my lunch meat sandwiches default bc why not:

At first glance, it might not seem like it's any different but my texture is much less blurry, I also re-mapped it quite a bit (EA was so sloppy on the mapping here) and I also edited the mustard(?) bottle slightly. I personally think the bread is too white (I want to add some sort of yellow/orange tint to it, but I haven't managed to get it looking god yet)

Hope you - and anyone reading this - have a good day!!

okay so I might have spent the entire evening yesterday rigging my tragic man.....

Yet another default no one really needs 🥴 my urge to poke at absolutely everything in this game is absurd but since I've already made it, I might as well share it.

This is a default replacement (mesh + texture) for the bubble bottle and wand from OFB. My texture is 128x128 for the bottle (EA's was 64x64) but the wand's texture is the same (32x32), I did edit the UV-mapping on the wand a tiny bit and rotated the bottle mesh slightly so more of the texture is shown. File has been compressed to reduce file size as usual!

Sorry for the bad previews, it was really hard to get a good angle of it in-game since I couldn't spawn it via the accessory cheat for some reason? So here is a shitty milkshape gif showing all sides:

I'm having way too much fun with this
