Afterglow defaults
by katsurin

it’s finally here! I’ve texture defaulted a bunch of (not all, some are just too uggo to me) base game hairs in the Antoninko afterglow hair system! Why texture defaults? They make use of the hair meshes already in your game (low polycount meshes that won’t tax your PC too), and make bulk creating nice looking townies much easier 💖

Nono hairs in Afterglow

You know, I remembered how much I love the Nono hairs, and finally got around to doing Afterglow versions… but I competley forgot how bad the mapping is (on most of these).

Adventglow 2024
by katsurin

I’ve never got around to doing an advent for sims 2 cc, but this year I decided to make one for Afterglow hairs! Why under 2400 poly? because I’m more productive when there’s a limitation, aha; and I felt like a lot of the afterglow hairs being made right now are mostly higher poly (over 10000) 4t2 conversions, and I for one really have a love for older and lower poly hairs that were originally made for TS2. Though I do have a few 3t2 conversions on my list, too!

3t2 Afterglow collection
by katsurin

I'm not a huge fan of the aesthetics of the Sims 3 (it seems to fall in a bad spot of the uncanny valley for me, aha), but I really like Sims 3 hairs converted to the Sims 2, despite all the transparency problems. They usually fall into my preferred poly count range, they're often AABG, and they fit well into my semi-realistic style. I went through the database and found a bunch that hadn't been retextured in Afterglow yet, retextured them... then got really busy and sat on the files for a couple of months. Oh well, if any have been done since, these will still be available in my colour selection, and if you're anything like me, you may like to collect various colours from different creators, aha.

After doing the Janna pigtails, I was browsing the hair database and thought… what if I repo’d some more hairs? Turns out theres quite a few meshes that take well

as a bit of a companion to my BG hair DRs, I’ve also run @withlovefromsimtown’s ‘Beardly’ defaults through @antoninko’s Afterglow system! I’ve popped them all in one zip, each labelled.

The Sims 2 by katsurin

I downloaded a bunch of older sims from different creators (all of them from defunct Asian sites found here on Simscave), and made them over to my tastes, editing features and using my usual skins to go in my Tokyo inspired neighbourhood as townies ^^

Found that I really need …
