Zenman's Curvier Teen Meshes VOLUME 3 **UPDATED**

Zenman's Curvier Teen Meshes w/Textures Vol 3

**UPDATE** 12-16-2005: See below

NOTE: There are two zip files; only download the one of them you want. The file "ZenmanCurvierTeenVol3.zip" file contains files that allow you to create a female teen that has a curvier shape.

The "ZenmanCurvierTeenVol3_DefaultReplacements.zip" file will replace your female teen mesh defaults with new meshes. Don't use this file unless that is what you want to happen!! If you do use this file, and don't like your defaults to be affected, simply remove these files from your downloads folder, and your meshes will return to the defaults.

Please let me know if you have any problem with either of these, and I'll see what needs to be done to fix it.

==================================================

This is a third set of new meshes for the teen female to move her from a tall 12 year old to a normal 16 year old. This set contains bottom and top meshes

The first set can be found at:

These meshes are modified versions of a number of Maxis default meshes. The meshes included are:

TF Bottom Baggy Pants
TF Bottom Flared Pants Boots
TF Bottom Flared Pants Sandals
TF Bottom Micromini Skirt
TF Top Crewneck Shirt Over
TF Top Jeans Jacket
TF Top Midsleeve Tshirt
TF Top Tanktop

Since these are Maxis meshes, you can use SimPE to point any Maxis or 3rd party texture for the Maxis mesh to these meshes as well.

As I did for the first two volumes, I included a separate texture for each mesh. They are a mixture of Maxis default and modified default textures.

I will continue to convert the default Maxis teen meshes to this shape over time. How quickly I do so will depend on how popular they turn out to be (which of course I can only measure by number of downloads and number of thank yous!! (hint)).

To use these, simply unzip into your ...\My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Downloads folder.

Terms of use:

- Do not post these meshes on any other sites; they are for MTS2 only
- Do not include these meshes with any recolors; link back to this thread for the mesh

Other than that have a ball!

NOTE: Due to the manner in which the meshes were modified, there is a tiny discrepency between the top and bottom meshes that can be seen on extreme closeups. I do not believe it detracts from game play.

UPDATE: 11-30-2005 - Someone noticed that I had not been compressing the textures for the skins (thanks!). It seems that Bodyshop does this automatically but SimPE does not. I've gone through and updated the zip with compressed skins. Only re-download if you care about file sizes.

UPDATE: 12-16-2005 - I've found and fixed the problem that caused the meshes to look strange in BodyShop. The issue was less noticable in the game, but still there. The new meshes resolve the issue.

UPDATE 01-04-2006: I have uploaded the Poser magnets that I used to create these and the other meshes to MTS2. I've included some tips for using them (although I point you to Xenos' Poser tutorial for the majority of the information). If you have Poser, and would like to apply these to other existing meshes, you can get the files at:
