Four Sets Of Multi Pollination Technicians To Suit Every Taste

A couple months ago, I discovered astee's amazing alien skintone set . Unlike most alien skins I've found, these not only had different colors, but alien features like odd marks on the face, three bellybuttons, etc. They really look out of Sim!World :P.

I didn't want to convert them to defaults for my game, because that would modify the appearance of the alien sims from my legacy story. How would I explain if they suddenly turned blue?

So, I decided that the best way to have blue, green and red aliens in my game was to create a new set of P.Technicians.

I found and followed fwiffo's tutorial at MTS2 and it worked nicely.

I was so happy for my success at my first CC creation, that I made a second set of P. Technicians based on my alien Sims. And for the last few weeks I've made many Multi Pt sets, both for personal use or by request.

Today I'd like to share with you my four favorite Multi PT sets. There are "pretty" and "ugly" aliens, with CC skins and without them. I hope one of them suits to your tastes.

1. Multi Pollination Technician Set: Polychromatic Edition.



As I mentioned earlier, this is the first PT set I made.

It includes three aliens created with the Extreme Skins (Galaxy Explorers) by Astiees, plus my born in-game alien sim, Hobbes Broke, also known as P.T. 439.

Let's take a look at the P.T. in this set:




Meet Pollination Technician 11. You might recognize his face, right?
Yup, it's good old P.T. 9 Smith from Strangetown. I just made his nose a little bit larger and tweaked his eyebrows a bit.
I wanted more alien-like sims in my game, and you can't go wrong with him as a template.
This P.T. has brown hair.





This is P.T. 65
She has the same template as my born in-game alien sim, Helena Summerdream.
She has red hair.



This is P.T. 916.
She has Stella Terrano's face.
She's a blonde.



Finally, this is P.T. 493.
Although he's showing my custom default alien skin, his spawn will have your default skin and eyes (or just the Maxis ones if you don't have CC).
He has black hair.

Instructions: Unzip the contents of this file on your download's folder. It works with all EPs up to FreeTime. Besides the skins, these P.T. were created with base game content only, so they should work with just the Base Game.

IMPORTANT! You must download the three alien skins from MTS2 for this set to work! Otherwise, your alien sims will be born with your default S2 skin!:

Extreme Skins "Galaxy Explorers" (Alien Species) by astiees

Also, because the PTs in this set were created with custom skins and not the default alien skin, there's a high chance you might suffer from the Maxis bug that prevents your "normal" or custom skinned sims from displaying their default alien eyes correctly.

In other words, any alien baby born from these PTs will lack eyes (and look creppy too!).

Fortunately, there is a fix for this bug. Get Theo's UNLOCK ALIEN EYES FOR ALL SKINTONES MOD and place it in your download's folder.

I also suggest you get some alien contacts for your teen aliens. This is also a well known Maxis glitch that has always irritated me to no end. All my alien sims (with and without the default alien skin) have been forced to use contacts during their teen years. Otherwise, their eyes look very creepy at that age. The eyes go back to normal when they become adults, though.

2. Multi Pollination Technician Set: Graslaxian Edition.



It includes four aliens, based on four of my legacy story's "Graslaxian" (alien) Sims. There's NO custom content in this set, so your alien spawn will show the default alien skin and eyes you have installed in your PC (or just the Maxis one if you don't have them).

Let's take a look at the P.T. in this set:




This is P.T. 493, also known as Hobbes Broke.
He's Bella Goth's grandson (and Beau Broke's great-grandson)
He has black hair.




This is P.T. 101, also known as Helena Summerdream.
She's Veronaville's Puck Summerdream's alien daughter.
She has red hair.




This is P.T. 93, also known as Calvin Broke.
He's Hobbes' twin brother.
This P.T. has brown hair.




Finally, this is P.T. 4367, also known as Cosmo Broke.
He's Pleasantview's Beau Broke's alien son.
He's a blond.

Instructions : Unzip the contents of this file on your download's folder. It works with all EPs up to FreeTime. These P.T. have base game content, so they should work with just the Base Game.

Once again, I suggest you get some alien contacts for your teen aliens. This is a well known Maxis glitch that has always irritated me to no end. All my alien sims have been forced to use contacts during their teen years. Otherwise, their eyes look very creepy at that age. The eyes go back to normal when they become adults, though.

3. Multi Pollination Technician Set: Maxian Invasion



Soon after I posted my first two PT sets in my journal, I was asked for instructions so anyone could create their own Multi PT set. I directed them to fwiffo's awesome tutorial, of course, but some people still said they were afraid of messing things up with SimPe.

I also was "afraid" of SimPe, but lately I've realized that as long as you back up your files and are very careful, it's not as intimidating as it seems. Still, I decided to "illustrate" fwiffo's tutorial in my journal

It's a bit picture heavy, I'm afraid, because I also included a little story to make it a bit more "entertaining" (at least to me). So far, many simmers have been able to create their own Multi PT set with the help of fwiffo's instructions and my pictures, so if you are interested, you should try it too .

Anyway, this is the set I made for the tutorial. According to the story, three well known Maxis sims were abducted by evil alien races and turned into mutant agents, who want to destroy the Graslaxian (aka the green alien race) once and for all. Only Agent Smith is able to stop them before it's too late:

Required skins, eyes and mods for this set (NOT INCLUDED!):

1. Theo's Unlock Alien Eyes for All Skintones. for the reasons stated in the Polychromatic set.

2. Enayla's fantasy skins :
- Pixie Glory
- Pixie Incubi
- Pixie Winter.

3. RenSims Confutati Peel Session Eyes : orange, yellow and violet.

4. Jacks Alien Eyes by Silo Pixel Bean.

4. Multiple Pollination Technician Set: Pixel & Bean



Finally, here's my most recent Multi PT set. This one was made as a request by Silo Pixel & Bean, who wanted more variety between her alien sims, but also wanted to keep the traditional "alienish" look of the Maxis PT #7.

She created this neat set of alien templates and sent it to me, so I could turn this sims into Pollination Technicians.

All my alien sims have been forced to use contacts during their teen years. Otherwise, their eyes look very creepy at that age. The eyes go back to normal when they become adults, though.

Phew! I guess this is all the info you'll need to use these sets.

Remember that you can only have ONE of this sets in your game at a time, otherwise they'll conflict with each other!

I hope you enjoy them!
