1896 Twilight Carnival Costume
🕑 Added 2019-10-31 13:27:42 +0000 UTC03.10.2020 edit: made the headpiece hat slider compatible and improved the dress, so that it wouldn't explode when you zoom out (+ smoothed the weights a little bit).

Happy Halloween everyone!
As promised, today I'm releasing my treats from the first Simblreen weekend. All 3 of them are parts of the same outfit, so I thought I'd be better to release them all together. I hope you'll like them!
It's supposed to be a twilight carnival outfit, based on this picture from 1896:
Personally I love it, but I must admit, it was the most problematic of the pieces I’ve been working on so far. Honestly, it made me feel like I’m back to July and have no clue how to do a thing, as nothing worked as it was supposed to. Big heartfelt thanks to @javitrulovesims and @teanmoon for helping me go through the whole process without going crazy and for sorting the dress out! I don’t think I’d have ever finished this one if it hadn’t been for your help <3.
Don’t worry, though, now it works beautifully :).
- BGC
- HQ mod compatible
- 2 swatches for the dress and headpiece (with golden or silver stars), 3 swatches for the gloves (navy, dark navy and black)
- the veil works with a number of hairstyles. I tested it mostly with CC, but you can as well use the BG low bun or basically any of the hairs without excessive volume.
- smooth bone assignment ( = moves with the sim’s whole body, not just stiffly with the head)
- uses glass shader for transparency (my first time, yeah!) = won’t work properly in laptop mode! The sleeves of the dress will look way uglier and the veil will turn solid, so your poor sims won't be able to see anything through it.
- works for all body types
- custom thumbnails & bumpmap
- custom specular - I mean, really custom, not just ‘shine removed’ type of custom. This one really sparkles! Another first time of mine
- tagged as everyday, formal, party and witch, whatever that last category is supposed to mean
- disallowed for random, I think? At least the headpiece definitely is.
I haven’t spotted any issues, but if you see anything, please let me know!
Enjoy :)
