Allen Walker for The Sims 2

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

LJ cut for pictures and links.
Edit: Please take another look at this entry if you saw it before. I have added more information. ^.^
Edit 2: Apparently there's some issues with the content of the download. Not only that, but I totally noticed something else in need of revising.
Edit 3: Issues fixed. Also uploaded to another host site.
Edit 4: Proclaiming that you need to get the download from someone else. Released to the general public to give out freely. I no longer own any of the original files due to a computer crash a while back. Ask the LJ community if they have the file somewhere still. If I find the original files again somehow, I'll let you know.

Information:

Allen Walker. This is an incomplete project in my eyes, but it's complete enough where you can at least enjoy this content in your game.

Check out their other content! They're really cool. :3


If you make Allen fit, like if he swims a lot or something, his arm will revert to a normal skin tone, rather than his black arm. I did that on purpose so that if he has kids who happen to turn into teen males, you can make their skin normal (if they happen to get his skin) by making them fit or fat. Yeah, I know fit!Allen is canon!Allen but it's not something you can just choose when you're making the sim and therefore you'd have to make Allen fit after making the family in order to even get to see his arm. I believe the fit and normal version of this skin is pretty much the same looking anyhow. I didn't want his kids to have to be fat to have normal skin either. Not that it's even that different looking anyway.


Here's what I mean by incomplete: Baby, Toddler or Child Allen will not have the arm. Adult or Elder either. Sorry. If you like, comment here or contact me and ask for my original files I had made and continue where I left off. The fact is, I just do not have time right now.

Also, Allen does not have an exorcist uniform. If anyone makes one or has one, let me know please. :3 I could make one eventually but my computer doesn't support bump maps and I have no time.

Also, if anyone knows how to make bump maps and they are supported on your computer, please make Allen's shirt bump mapped?? <3333

(Links no longer work. Please ask around the community for the file. I'm more than alright with people passing it around to each other.)
Here's the download to get this sim.
FlyUpload.com:
http://www.flyupload.com/?fid=2823976
Gigasize.com:
http://www.gigasize.com/get.php?d=mkbtqz1lw0c

You need this: www.xmsims.com/sims2/ehtm/hair/mhair02.htm
That's the custom hair for Allen, and it's not included. Everything else is.
 
Make ABSOLUTE SURE that you download the mesh (by clicking on the picture of the hair) AND the silver hair, otherwise you won't have a complete Allen. :3


There are 2 skin versions for Allen. One with a lovely torso scar (for those of us who like scars) and the other without (for those of us who wouldn't think of allowing the marring of Allen's perfect skin..) The files are appropriately named as such.. As are all the files. For your ease and mine.

Edit: There is no longer a second skin. For now, there is only the regular Allen skin, no torso scar included. The scar needs some work since it's... wrong.

Should be base game compatible. Let me know how it goes! :3 Make stories! Make Allen snack! (The animations are SO FUNNY!)

Thanks for putting up with my slowness. :3


Arigatou gozaimasu! Yoroshiku onegaishimasu! :3

PS: Here are three possible projects I will tackle in the future. Road, Kanda, Tyki, Lavi *sigh* Why must you be so hard Lavi??.

PPS: Speaking of Lavi, anyone know of any GOOD looking eye patches for him? That and the lack of proper hair meshes are the biggest reasons I would end up not doing him. I havent meshed since high school and this computer doesn't support it I don't think.

Edit 2: *face palms* That scarred skin is all wrong. I mean, it looks alright but it's not proper. It should have an exit wound on his back... Oh boy, do I ever feel silly. Um.. I'll try to fix that once the most prominent issues are taken care of.

Those being that Allen doesn't seem to appear properly as an available already made sim, which he should. The content appears, but.. I'm not sure what's going on there. I'm looking into it.

Edit 3: I had my friend and myself test this Allen, and it should actually work. You still need to download his hair seperate, but now you should actually have the ready made Allen. Please delete the old files, though I suppose if everything is bunched together it will just replace them since all except the custom sim (a random number named file) have the same name. Anyway, download it again and all of your issues should be solved.

This new file does not have the scar on his chest! I will not tolerate the scar being so blatantly unbelievable. I mean, no exit wound how silly... X_x

he's SO CUTE! it looks realllly great! thank you! :)

[tamariskw.livejournal.com]

OMG that's awesome!! Fantastic work :D

I don't play the Sims but if I did I'd definitely use this.

Are you going to make other DGM chars too? Lavi would be kinda fun... the eyepatch, bandana, and hair to one side.

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

The problem with the eyepatch is I don't know how to 3D mesh. Haven't done that since high school, and the computer I currently have wouldn't support such a huge load of a program.. probably. And the current eyepatch that's popular is so weird looking. XD Poor Lavi would look silly.

As much as I dislike Kanda, he's probably next. ^.^ He'd be so easy to make compared to Allen or Lavi. Edit his face, give him the hair and kimono and bam! lol

[ex-duelist.livejournal.com]

This is so good. I love you for actually skinning his arm, omg.

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your compliment there. XD skinning his arm took me the longest!

[iiaiiaparadise.livejournal.com]

Wow. Wow. WOOOOOOOOOOW.

I've only seen one or 2 Allen sims around, but this is the first I've seen done extremely well and the first I've seen with details other than the scar on his face. If I had Sims2 on this computer I'd DEFINITELY download it, but this being a new computer, I'm just going to wait for Sims 3.

Which has me asking if you'll be designing an Allen for that game as well once it's out, if possible~?

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

Heh heh heh... Probably not. At least not for several years. It took me this long to update my modding to the second sims.. ^^;;; ha ha ha haaaa

I wish my comp could even handle the sims 3.

[obsessed-love.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, I love you for this. *_*

I'm always amazed at people who make custom sims. I can't seem to do it, no matter how hard I try. Thanks a lot!

If you do others please share! 8D I'd die for Noah in my sims games XD

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

^.^ I have the stuff to make Noah. Maybe I'll make Tyki or Road next instead of Kanda.

... But for Road I don't know if I should make her a teen or a child... o.o;

And the Noah skin is rather another task unto itself. ^.^ But the Noah marks are available for download if you didnt see my other post here.

[epistretes.livejournal.com]

This is so awesome. I've already made an alpha edit/recolour for his curse but I hadn't yet gotten round to doung all of him. This will save me having to ;D

I'll have to snag it for my game.

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

Tell me if it works properly please! <3

And if you can, feel free to continue my work where I left off! :3 (I will if no one else does, but since I'm in Japan right now things are hectic.)

[elusive-dreamer.livejournal.com]

lol that's a really good skin. I like his face.

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

^.^ Thanks!

[atom-bunny.livejournal.com]

Wow - much better than my crappy attempt at an Allen sim. (Much better than my attempt at ANY sim actually, cos I can't recolour for toffee.) ^_^'

*downloads*

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

:3 Tell me if it works properly pleeeease! <3

I love your icon btw!

[murasaki-mary.livejournal.com]

Wow! I don't play Sims, but it looks like you did a great job! It looks very much like Allen. =D *claps*

[kresiana.livejournal.com]

[bakaneko-kyo.livejournal.com]

LOL wow thats freaking crazy hahah the details are amazing

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

D: If you're not already addicted you probably shouldn't lol! Such a terrible addiction... :3

[kupodesu.livejournal.com]

W-wow that looks AMAZING. -loves you for this- I'm getting Sims 2 soon, so I can't wait to use this :3

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

-^.^-

Tell me how it goes! :3

[throwingtomatos.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much!! :3 He looks awesome.

[yamamoto-kou.livejournal.com]

This is absolutely lovely! Thanks! *downloads*

Annoyed!Allen's face reminds me of chapter 184. 0_0

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

:3 Annoyed Allen is actually responding to a Kanda I made. That was their first interaction.

Kanda: May I punch you for fun?
Allen: NO WAY! D<
Kanda: ... I hate you... "--"
Allen: "--"

[blackwhite-rain.livejournal.com]

I do know a good eyepatch (forgot which eye it covers, sadly)...

http://www.modthesims2.com/download.php?t=109951&highlight=eyepatch

[blackwhite-rain.livejournal.com]

As for Allen's skin, I really like what you do with the arm and the body (my custom-made arm looks horrible). Sadly, I play Allen as an adult instead of teen, so I think I'll have to try to change much of the skin in order to make it work.

[moriko-chan.livejournal.com]

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS! I'LL WAIT PATIENTLY FOR THE OTHERS!:DDDD


AS FOR THE SKIN ALLEN:
i setted up my sims 2 that i got for by bithday since 2004, played it for one year, then got bored with it and took it out of my pc. only for this!
but, like some other people, nothing is showing!! neither in the already made sims nor in the body shop. i thought i should tell you that. SO SORRY T_T i first thought that it might be an instalation problem, but when i read the other comments, i noticed that thy had the same problem as me.


you'll made a link too? :D

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

>.< I'm so so so sorry. I'm working on it as we speak. Please wait patiently. It should be fixed soon.

[shadowkyuubi.livejournal.com]

how do you get the character in the program after installing it?

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

Once you download Allen you must unzip the file. Then you double click on the file and it will ask you if you wish to install the following files. You say yes, then the files are in your game and you can delete the original file you downloaded.

You must also ensure you dled the hair from XM Sims. After that it should work just fine.

Once in the family making part of the game, change your sim to a teen male and then look at the ready made sims. Allen should be in there.

[subaru-san.livejournal.com]

Which scar do you mean, exactly? The one on his chest? Frankly, I could live without that one. Poor Allen gets so tortured. ;_; Anyway, maybe take a look at Tyki's back scar for an idea how to make Allen's scar look? Or just mirror the scar on his chest on the back, I guess. About the extra file, just a tip, but it might be simpler to just include it in the zip. ^_^

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I do state somewhere in there that I mean the one on his chest. It's okay. I just made an error not having seen the latest chapter. ^.^; It'll be fixed and rereleased eventually, but sadly I don't have time for such an endeaver until perhaps a break from school.

The extra file? Do you mean the hair? I am absolutely not allowed to include it in the zip, as per the usage guidelines of XM Sims. ^^;

[subaru-san.livejournal.com]

The mesh to download is this one, right?

http://hair50.sims2.xmsims.com/sims2/skins/hair/malehair002/XMS_Flora_MeshHair020.zip

Just making sure. ^^;;;

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

Yep, it's hair 20. ^^ Exactly. >>; I wasn't allowed to directly link either, sorry.

Simming

[harmonyofmar.livejournal.com]

are there certain instructions to get it onto the sims? i'm downloading it tonight when i get my sims 2 game back from my dad, and im planning on deleting all my crappy families and just doing dgm themed stuff.

Expired

[harmonyofmar.livejournal.com]

both links say the file has expired because it's been there too long. Could you please upload them again?

[ladyare.livejournal.com]

the links are not working, sadly. could you please re-upload it, maybe on mediafire?

*sob* Links Not Workin'

[blankmemorie.livejournal.com]

Please re-upload the links! I beg'th of you!! I really want this sim, REAL bad~ Lemme know when ya do, k?

Arigatou,
Yu

[(Anonymous)]

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE re-upload this file????!!!!!!! PLEASE for all that is holly!!!! I've been searching for this sim for so long, and now that I've finally found him (by the way GREAT JOB!, this is awesome) I can't download him. :(
Can you see if you can fix this? pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease??????????

[willowchan.livejournal.com]

Actually, there's an entry where it was reuploaded by someone who downloaded it. I no longer have the file, but surely if you post on the community asking for it again, someone will respond and send it to you. Sorry about that. My computer had crashed and now I own the Sims 3 so I never redownloaded it.

hi

[akirashindou.livejournal.com]
