That reminds me, I still need to write that post about how I feel about Vaan… it’s something I’ve been pondering for a while, haha, after your reply to me.

Hahaha! DO IT – I love having FF discussions! ^0^ I’ve spoken with people who strongly dislike Balthier O.O most baffling people in the world, of course, but still utterly fascinating, seeing things from different angles. Some people HATE Tidus. Some love Squall and Cloud Strife – I don’t get it, but hey. 😛 I never liked Cloud Strife; he irritated me to no end with his angsty self—for me it was alllll about Vincent Valentine (even though Dirge of Cerberus was kinda boring, I’ll admit). And Zack, Reno and Rude were cooler anyway. URGH! I am SO MAD that my PS1 broke! I can’t play any of my PS1 games; it hurts me to my heart. 😥

clipping issues are so frustrating sometimes

A-frikkin-men. It’s the arms especially; the legs are a bit easier, but now I understand why there are so few outfits with long sleeves in the community—even at the Store and in the EP/SPs you can barely find any clothes with full sleeves that go to the wrist. It’s because the clipping KILLS. The arms twist in ways that make the mesh so misleading when the sim is standing still. Then they lift their arms, bend the elbows, twist or something, and you see exactly what’s what, at the last frikkin minute. *considers simicide*

Aw, these would have been awesome; although I rarely dress my Sims in costume! I may have made an exception for Ondore…

I am DETERMINED to fix Ondore’s outfit. It’s only a little clipping in the shoulder/collarbone areas, but it’s stubborn. Ondore’s outfit is the closest to completion, though. If I hadn’t spotted the clipping it would’ve been released almost two weeks or so ago. Why you gotta do me like that, mesh!?

Man, that sucks no baaaalthier… but clipping is :T. if only i still had my texture mod which was his vest.

Balthier’s outfit is bothering me because of the cravat—the neckline is too high, but the second I lower it I get clipping in the shoulder/collarbone like Ondore.  There’s some strange clipping in the armpit area, too but it’s not bad, just strange; it’s overlookable, really. But the neck bothers me; otherwise I’d release it. I also converted Balthier’s hair and earrings, but as usual the hair is imperfect; I don’t like the hairline.

The sim wearing Al-Cid Margrace’s outfit is wearing a WIP hair one of the NPCs had, and it’s got a bit of a hairline problem, too. So that’s in the works as well. I converted Margrace’s hair, but the texture is piss-poor, so I won’t be releasing it any time soon. And the outfit is missing backfaces on the collar, and the boots area needs to be reshaped.

Gilgamesh’s outfit is so darn bulky, so I want to slim it down some more. And the back is stupid–in FFXII Gilgamesh had 6 arms or so, so I had to completely redo the top to get rid of the extra arms, and I literally used the front of the mesh as a duplicate for the back; it’s silly. The only thing presentable are the horn accessories.

 SIGH

Lots to do.
