// Update: Version 2 is now available for download! I have overhauled this item, refitting around bodies, reducing vertex loads, adding normal maps, cleaning bone assignments and eliminating unwanted morph interactions with other morphing accessories such as my Egyptian Armbands.

I hope you like the improved version of this choker! I have replaced the images in this post to reflect the changes.

I will leave the previous version of this content up under downloads. There should not be any conflicts if you leave it in your game. However, if you are bothered by multiple instances of the same item showing up in CAS, I'd recommend you take the time to weed out the previous version from your mods folder. //

Marik Ishtar wears some distinctive jewelry including these golden neck rings which I've created as a choker necklace.



This necklace works for male and female sims of all ages. It appears in CAS like any other accessory and can be worn in combination with other accessories. Note that whenever several accessories are worn simultaneously, the game reduces the texture resolution of all of them to keep the game from slowing down.

When several accessories with morphs are worn together, there is a possibility of their morphs interacting inappropriately if their vertex IDs conflict. I will work to correct these conflicts when they occur between my own content, but I have no control over how other creators assign their IDs. For your reference, this choker occupies the following vertex ID ranges:

Vertex ID Ranges:

High (1):
31850 to 32245

Medium (2):
32246 to 32415

Low (3):
32416 to 32496

Since the bodies of each age group and gender are rather different, I've sized and positioned the necklace to present correctly on each. I've also created morphs so the necklace will deform with the weight and fitness sliders in CAS. Within the zip file download, you will find only one package file because I have merged all these versions together: pu, cu, tm, tf, am, af, em and ef.

You should only need the Base Game for this accessory to work.



There is 1 recolorable channel and 8 pattern presets color-matched to precious metals and others historically used in the making of jewelry: Rose Gold, 18K Yellow Gold, 14K Yellow Gold, White Gold, Sterling Silver, Copper, Bronze, and Brass.



I optimized the poly count so this necklace should not slow down your game.

Level of Detail (LOD) Counts:

High (1):
396 vertices
512 triangles

Medium (2):
170 vertices
192 triangles

Low (3):
78 vertices
96 triangles



Please do not upload my work on another site. I would like some credit for all the hard work I put in. This is for all the other Marik fans out there. Enjoy!
