Update: File is provided as-is. I do not intend to update this file at this time on my end for the June 2nd, 2016 patch (which I believe was unnecessary, as it broke more than it "fixed.") If you have trouble running Overly Manly Man in your game due to the patch, please let me know, and I'll consider patching him. (I see no reason why he shouldn't work, as the new format does allow you to switch off the gender-fluidity mechanics if you don't want them.)

The Guinness Record book? You mean, his partial biography? Overly Manly Man is here to make your male Sims feel inadequate, though some of the women might be offended by his hyper-macho arrogant musings. The Mike Conely-inspired meme can be learned about in more detail here.

File details

The Tray files contain an approximation of Mike Conely, particularly in regards to his appearance in Animeme. No custom content required whatsoever. I've included only the most politically-correct jokes I could find here, but be warned that some of the jokes that employ this meme can get some users huffy. Use with discretion.

What you're really getting



Not a perfect match, but I got as close as source image angles and default content would allow. If you'd like to add a little hair to his chest, you can do so here, courtesy of LumiaLover.

This image below is a close re-creation of the Sim to the original. Complete matching of motions wasn't possible, given I don't have a pose pack or ability to move Sims themselves with moveobjects.



And for purists, I've got the game version being called out by the original for not being able to bend the game's rules:



Requested changes

His chin and nose have been fixed to make him a closer match to the real Mike Conely. His eyes have also been tweaked, and I made his hair and mustache dark brown.
