A highly informal poll

Next project is a default replacement one, specifically to adjust the meshes of the male (TM/AM) clothing to be properly fitted and give them better fat morphs. I'm not interested in doing all of the base game clothes, however, because too many of them are simply too ugly to exist. But, if I go with *only* my own tastes, I'll won't do more than a handful of outfits.

So -- which base game guy outfits do you use, or would like to use if only they had better shapes (and possibly textures)?

And an answer from that weird chick with the themed game... Believe it or not, I end up using the kilt mesh a lot, which unhappily comes with the fat morph's chicken legs even on the fit morph (also the socks bug me, but hey). Also the nude mesh, but... I'm a sexy-feet-havin' girl, so that might not be something you can help me with, more's the pity. In the Alien Invasion game that I really will get back to someday, I use the motoracer outfit a lot. A lot a lot. It's a good armor-ish uniform.

... Man, I hardly ever use base game meshes, actually. Even when I was just playing Random Whatever. Swimsuits and underwear, which are probably on your list of things to do anyway, being staple meshes...

As far as sexyfeet compatible meshes go, I know Aelia was interested in doing those. I don't know how much she's around, but I'm sure you could talk someone into doing them.

Underwear and swimwear are a given, as are the PJ pants. I'll be doing the suits as well. Others depend on if I can get some good replacement textures going for -- most of the base game textures are ABYSMAL, as I'm sure you've noticed.

I could definitely do the motoracer and the kilt. I still want to make a cyberninja costume from the motoracer mesh. X)

... I think I've seen her around some. I really need to pay more attention to names than icons when people post...

I'm still around - shellshocked at the transition between nothing to do, and employment (albiet part-time!) - but alive ;)

I'm still more than happy to do the sexyfeet versions too :D

I'm so glad you said suits! Formal wear suits as well. My conservative bankers and lawyers, etc. have nothing to wear that doesn't look like they gained thirty pounds. Maxis seems to believe that there is no shape to a man's body in a suit! They have very sloping shoulders on most men's meshes as well. Unfortunately, the only real options out there are the Asian community male silhouette, very slender and graceful, but really doesn't look like most adult 30-50 males I've met and the alternative meshes- often great, but with chunky shoes or other non-business looks. I'm often amazed by what is posted as "business" or "office" wear for corporate people.

Call it wishful thinking. *g*

If the one suit I prodded last night is any indication, Maxis had a really hard time with consistency in body shape, everything fitting like a sack aside. It was like they just couldn't be bothered to try as hard for the guys.

The only consistency is consistently awful! Of course, because they couldn't be bothered, YOU will now get to pick what the standard body shape for a suit should be :)
