Default Enabling the Fat and Fit Textures for Aliens and Mannequins
So.... a few days ago, I installed a mod that enables the fat and fit textures for aliens and zombies. Which means that everything is all well and good for me now, right? Unfortunately that isn't the case. Why might you ask? Because of the following reasons:

  • The mod only enables the fat and fit textures for aliens in their in-game appearances. It doesn't enable those textures for their headshots which is why I wanted this mod in the first place.
  • The mod doesn't enable the fat and fit textures for mannequins at all.
I was hoping that someone here might be able to look into this mod and tell me what I need to do in order to enable the fat and fit textures for aliens and zombies. Recently I discovered that many of the pre-made Sims from The Sims 2 have the wrong fitness textures.

Editing a Sim's fitness level in SimPE doesn't update their fitness textures which is probably how most of these Sims ended up with the wrong fitness texture in the first place. Thankfully I know how to fix the fitness textures for most of the Sims in my game.

Which leaves me with just one problem. The fat and fit textures aren't enabled for aliens or mannequins by default. And the mod I linked above only enables the textures for the in-game appearances of aliens. It doesn't affect their headshots (refreshing their headshots doesn't help) and since mannequins were never intended for normal gameplay, the mod I linked above doesn't enable the fat and fit textures for them at all.

I was really hoping someone would know how to enable those textures for aliens and mannequins in my game. So that their headshots will be consistent with those of Sims with regular skin tones.

I've discovered that the fit textures do appear in the headshots of some aliens. Just not the ones that I'm wanting them to appear in. And they aren't appearing in the headshots of any of the mannequins.
