Tiny Texture Replacers Combined
 

What does this do?

This is a combined version of all my currently-available tiny texture replacing mods. I have put all the resources into a single .package file, for increased performance (the more packages you have, the more lag you can get) and for ease of downloading.

Whenever I add new tiny texture replacers (or remove ones no longer needed), I will update this thread - so if you like using my tiny texture replacers, you'll only need to re-download one file when it's updated.

Currently, this includes:

• No Sleep Zzzs
  
• No Sleep 0101s (Simbots - Ambitions)
  
• No Sleep Vvvs (Vampires - Late Night)
  
• No Build Sparkles
  
• No Fight Effects
  
• No Slap Effects
  
• No Musical Notes
  
• No Vampire Neck Tattoo (Late Night)
  
• No Simoleon Effects
  
• No Woohoo Hearts (Added 13 Nov 2010)
  
• No Relationship Sparkle (Added 13 Nov 2010)
  
• No Sledgehammer Flash (Added 20 Jun 2011)
  
• Concrete Parking Barrier Replacement (Added 20 Jun 2011)

If you are already using my other tiny texture replacers, you need to remove all of the individual package files for them (should be easy to find if you sort your files by name: they all start with "No" - well, except for one) and just use this one single file.


Fixed - Hopefully:

If you downloaded the file within the first few hours of it being up, please delete the version you have, and download a fresh one. Some of the effects weren't working, and I hope I have fixed everything. For some reason they went wonky on combining and fixing it has been a real pain. I -think- everything works now but with the luck I've been having with this damn thing, I'm sure something else is somehow wrong.

If you have any problems, first, delete the version you have and download the new file from the thread here. It's a RAR now - the old one was a 7Z.

If you still have problems even after you've downloaded a fresh version, please post and let me know. If you do, please tell me the specific effect that has issues. Just saying "it doesn't work" won't help me.

My apologies for any pain-in-the-assery.


Compatability:

While three parts of this mod require expansions (No 0101s requires Ambitions, No Vvvs and No Vampire Neck Tattoo require Late Night), this mod should still work just fine with the base game - you don't get those effects anyway, so they should be ignored.

As long as there are no MAJOR changes to the way DDS images are handled by the game (VERY unlikely!) then this mod and all my tiny texture replacers should be fully compatible with ALL game versions and patches, backwards and forwards, forever. These aren't real "mods" but just transparent replacements to the textures used for these effects. As such, there is very little potential for any kind of conflicts or issues, as long as you don't have another mod that replaces the very same texture.


Other Combinations?

I will NOT be doing other combinations of this mod - please don't ask for a version just like this but without one of the effects. I really don't feel like doing a bunch of different combinations. If you just want SOME of these effects removed, then download the individual mods and combine them yourself in s3pe. It's very easy to do... Just open one file and import from package to import the resources from all the rest.

Awesome! This cleans out like half of my hacks!

Thank you HP! Combining them is a great idea & helpful too.

Hi, i have a Probleme isn't work.

I have a german Sims3.

The_Rookie - Try again - I just uploaded a fixed file (for some reason s3pe renumbered some things).

Thank you! I have all of my cc is combined packages, but I never combined the hacks, (in case they needed updating) so it would always bump up the total number of files. About 1/3 of the hacks I have are your texture replacers, so this will be helpful.

thanks for this.. but when i tried it, the zzz's for late is still visible.. hehe

ejack681 - Try redownloading. There was an issue with the original file, and it was downloaded by several people (probably you too) before I had a chance to fix it. The new file should work fine.

Edit: Argggh, I don't know why it kept the old file and not the new one, but it's really fixed now! I just tested and it's okay. I swear technology is conspiring against me today. My apologies to anyone who downloaded the previous file - I'm an idiot whose computer should be taken away for my heinous cruelty to 0s and 1s.

Edit 2: No really. Fixed now. I hope.

Thanks HP, it's running.

HystericalParoxysm - im downloading the new one now.. thank you again.. hehe

awesome! thanks! I've been waiting for something like this! question though, does it conflict with any other mods?

Simul8rReviews - The only thing it could conflict with is anything that replaces these exact same textures with something different - or something that replaces one or more of the same textures with invisible versions too. For example, in testing I managed to somehow leave both the single NoVvvs mod and this in my game at the same time, and somehow the combination of the two had my vampires snoring big green leaves instead of Vvvs. Weirdest. Conflict. Ever. But yeah, -very- unlikely to conflict with anything - won't conflict with any core mods, script mods, or xml tuning mods whatsoever.

My Mom. Nice!

o snap. this is so convienant for me thanks for the upload! =D

Thank you. I was one of those who downloaded it right away and I am surprised by how fast you fixed it.

I kind of want my vampires to snore big green leaves...

Wow, that's great and fantastic. Love this little combihack. Thank you very much,

nice hack, can you also do something about the hearshaped garbage thats thrown around whenever sims have sex?

I really hate that stuff.

Inhuman One - Generally, I don't do requests, but I actually have a mod to remove those damn confetti hearts all ready to go. Just need to upload it.

Edit: Done! Download the new version and you won't have confetti woohoo hearts anymore.

I love this mod, but the vampire neck tattoo mod doesnt work for me. Or will this only work for new vampires and not the already inGame ones?

Tanja1986 - It does work fine on existing vampires. You may need to get them to change their appearance though. Just take them to a mirror or dresser, change something (even slightly - like opacity of makeup) and back out and it should regenerate their textures.

I had that issue with Morrigan Hemlock (but not her husband Wogan for some reason) and taking her to a mirror fixed her right up. Make sure you have the current version of the mod, too - if you downloaded it right after I uploaded it, there may've been some problems as a result, but it's been updated since.

This is awesome,thank you I hope everything is working now as I see there have been some issues with it

Y2kRobie - Should be working, yes - I've tested myself and it seems to be fine, but if you have any issues, please let me know and I'll fix it up as soon as possible.

Thanks. I'm so glad you did this. I've been combining almost all of my CC but I haven't done so for hacks or CAS default replacements. I was wondering if it is safe to combine all your hacks.

Yay! Thanks TBH, I think "hideheadlineeffects on" should get rid of all of the special effects, it makes it difficult to take decent pictures.
