This is why we can't have nice things.

Whoever made the UV maps for Maxis hair is a SADISTIC BASTARD:



Which is exactly as much fun to try to retexture as it looks like.

UV map or no UV map, I could NOT get anything to align on the damned thing to save my life. I could have used VETTY's textures... which were crunchy...

Unacceptable. I butchered the mesh to my liking, instead.



MUCH BETTER.

I'd meant to have both sides of the hair have different bits of the map, but I messed up and joined everything up before I remembered. OOPS. Don't care.

So I did my age converting and decided to gender convert too because the mapping on this is far superiour to the original, right? And I decided to make it all nicely shaped by aligning it to the original NL mesh. Unbeknownst to me, this also gave it the NL mesh's animation.

Great, right?



The teen version has that lovely bouncy-bounce animation of the NL hair. But...



WHAT.

What. What. What the hell. I resized the teen mesh from this one WHY DOESN'T IT WOOOOORK.

I just. *tears hair out* Screw it. I'm going out for coffee.
