Glass Golden Trout Hat for Teens
Possible use for a fish hat: Spice up your baseball cap!
They can go to school wearing it and be told by a hall monitor that hats are against school policy. The hall monitor will then take a second look at the hat and ask, "Is that seriously a fish on your head?" and your sim can respond that no, it's a glass replica, moron. The hall monitor will then get offended and ask the teen to take the hat off, only to be rebuffed with "But they're prescription glasses for my humorous!".
Then the hall monitor will respond that it's spelt "humerus" and that glasses don't fix armbones, as he escorts your teen to the principal, who will then take one look and laugh so hard that they pass out.
In short, this is the most subversive hat that a teen can wear. Now without the fishy stink!
Basic Information:
Polycount: 524
Vertices: 368
This hat will show up under Glasses and be wearable by teen boys and girls only.
Mesh is a shrunken and turned-into-a-hat default Golden Trout from Seasons by Maxis.
Mesh is included in the download and is base game compatible.
Known Issues:
For sims with bangs and big hairs, the hair may stab through the fish, giving the fish a hairy look.
But if the fish wearer has a relatively flat hair, the fish should look just fine.
Polygon Counts:
524
Additional Credits:
Gwenke33 of MTS. Without their invaluable advice, I would not even have gotten this mesh to show properly. Thank you, Gwenke33!
mininessie of MTS. Without their Accessory Tutorial, I would have never made a Fish Hat to begin with. The tutorial is still current, but you'll need to take different steps on some of the instructions. For example, by following Gwenke33's advice to set the skin weight to 3, you no longer need to keep the over 400 polycount lens mesh in. Thank you mininessie, for your tutorial!
Milkshape, SimPE, Nvidia BuildDXT (critical for adding in textures for meshes that have wider/taller UV maps than the original mesh), Maxis/EA and finally, MTS for making any of this possible. Thank you all!
Oh, and the fish clipart from the speech bubble was a free-to-use "yellow fish" clipart found on the internet with Google image search.
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.
