Video | The Sims Community and Gen Z's Learned Helplessness
In which my brain has thoughts about the sims community (mainly the sims 4 tbh) and how the phenomenon of learned helplessness/gen z tech illiteracy makes itself apparent in it. Enjoy the product of my reddit brainrot 😔

hey im not a cc creator and i saw your most recent post, is that why its so hard to find good textured sims 3 hair? im always on the look out but i can only seem to find dead links and the same like 5 hairs being retextured, i didnt know there was a actual reason why its hard to get ones from 4 into 3!!
Ik i was wondering that too! It wasn't until i tried converting some myself till I realized.
Let's take the penisha ponytails by sheabuttyr as an an example. Here's how the hair is supposed to look:
Tumblr media
(beautiful, gorgeous, legendary,, iconic, my heart was ripped to shreds when i found out i couldn't convert it)
and here's how it looks when you take it into blender:
Tumblr media
...yeah.
What the creator did here was they drew the baby hairs and hairline directly on the scalp itself (this doesn't show up in blender). That's a problem for us converters, because here is what the sims 4 scalp texture looks like compared to the sims 3:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
As you can see, the sims 4 scalp is more of a front view of the hair, while the sims 3 scalp is a back view of the hair. So unless you re-draw the texture yourself, it's nigh impossible to get it to the sims 3.
What sims 3 converters are really looking for are hairs that draw on a transparent layer on top of the scalp, like this (transparency in sims 4 studio's blender template shows up as this beige color):
Tumblr media
This makes converting it super easy (you just have to turn off "draws on scalp" in TSRW to get it to show up).
However with maxis match hairs you can also run in to another problem. Let's take this one for example:
Tumblr media
As you can see, this hair is split into a bunch of tiny irregular pieces, which as you can imagine is a pain in the ass to color map.
So yeah, that's part of the reason why a lot of people can't convert natural hair to the sims 3. A lot of these creators don't create with converters in mind, which is totally fine since they don't owe it to anyone and they can create things however they like. just a pain for those of us who play ts3 lol.

i’ve been following you since late 2022 and it’s so great to see how you’ve improved with cc making :3 love all the stuff you’ve been putting out lately
damnnnn i can't believe it's been over a year since i started learning to convert! I remember i wanted to convert things SO badly that i spent that entire summer holed up in my room learning blender lol. i don't regret a single second of it though. I'm still in the process of learning with each conversion but i'm pretty ok with where I am right now. tysm!!!!

hi, can i ask u something? how you make good looking textures?
i follow your tutorial on youtube but my texture i think it looks bad
yea for sure!
i'm not sure what exactly you mean by "bad", but if you're talking about the actual quality itself, then there's not really much that can be done. The sims 3 texture absolutely has to be 1024 x 1024 (which is a shit quality compared to what we have nowadays), so the only thing that impacts the quality is how you resize the texture on that 1024x1024 square. Try to make it as big as possible without the texture showing up on the skin.

approx. 17k poly

Has a weird overlay in CAS but looks fine in game. See photo on patreon.
