UPLOADING MY FILES TO THE EXCHANGE OR PAY SITES IS BAD KARMA.
You may need to have your graphics set to "high" to see these effects in game.
THE DEFAULT REPLACEMENT PACKAGE IS COMPLETE! http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=211481
I don't know about you, but I find that the base set of glasses that shipped with the Sims a bit flat and cartoony, especially when viewed next to some of the lovely skintones and hair textures out there. These are destined to form a default replacement pack at some vague point in the future, but I wanted to make the individual non-default versions available to Sim makers while I do that
For the most part, I just adjusted the reflectivity of these glasses to seem more glasses-like. The lenses are about as reflective as glass (it's more noticeable on dark lenses), the plastic frames are slightly glossy, and the metal frames are shiny. I also included one pair of "mirrored" shades.
I only recolored 2 in addition to making them reflective, since they were just so horrid. I made the blue and grey wraparounds into chrome wraparounds with mirrored shades, and I made the green and gold aviator shades a more sober black with amber lenses.
Also, the shots of some of the clear-lensed glasses don't show much reflectivity in the comparison shots (you can see highlights on the frames, though). This is due to the angle of the glasses on the Sims' face in relation to the light source in CAS. Please see the in-game shots for a better idea of how reflective the clear lenses are.
Terms of use for my textures/recolors: These files may only be redistributed via shared sims, so long as those sims are available in the free section of any site, and I am credited with a link back to my profile on this site. You may not charge money or a membership fee for my files: this includes "donation files" on an otherwise free site, and sites where my files would only periodically be free.

ToU: Please see individual posts for my creation policies. IN GENERAL, I have fairly liberal policies, but there are a few items that are subject to other creators' policies. Therefore, I don't have a blanket ToU.
Future expansion packs: due to the headaches I have experienced from SecurROM - including damage to my computer, a complete reinstall of my computer, and the need to buy a brand new antivirus program, and eventually the need to fully replace my computer due to unremovable rootkits that took advantage of the security loopholes caused by SecruROM - I will not purchase or install/reinstall any EA or Sony products. There are conditions that may cause me to change my mind, but I don't consider them likely. This means that if any of my CC is broken by an expansion or stuff pack, I won't know and I won't be able to work on fixing any potential problems. I grant anyone permission to patch my CC for compatibility with any Sims 2 expansion or stuff pack, as long as the patched items are 100% free.
Beyond that, I'm not interested in pirating securom-infested eps, and I would never help EA advertise malware-infested products by creating content for them, so please stop e-mailing me with 'helpful' information.
Which brings me to... Take the SecuROM-free pledge!
