Marik Ishtar's Egyptian Choker from YuGiOh

// 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!

This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.

Install Instructions

Quick Guide:

1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.

For Package files:

1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Files^wiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).

For Sims3Pack files:

1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).


Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
