hi, I have a question....
I made the mistake of installing the exagerate one, and I dont like how it looks in my chubby and fat sims, nor in the veeery skinny ones...
I tried deleting the file, but it wont work, it is still there. I also reinstalled my game, and installed no CC, but its still there! How do I get rid of it?

Dear all:
I've received a few messages that concern the improper functioning of the mod recently; which are most likely due to recent expansions. I apologize. Due to some lifestyle commitments (change in job and country), I haven't been keeping up with the Sims 3.

Luckily, my life has somewhat stabilized, and I'll be looking into fixing any extant issues over the next month or two, after I make a purchase of the expansions. I will also try looking into adding support for teenagers, or doing more extensive modeling, if time permits.

Modelling/meshing for males is usually less popular than for females in most games. When I first created SAMMMM, I was under the impression that it'd only be a temporary solution before a truly talented mesher (with copious amounts of free time) would create something more professional. Unfortunately, at first glance, this does not appear to have happened, and I think I will try to do the best that I can.

Thank you very much for your patronage of SAMMMM.

P.S.: dolphinsimo5, the issue is with your cached Sims. Please read the install instructions again and delete the cache file in your "My Documents" Folder (which is not affected by reinstalling). I believe the name of it is "SimCompositorCache". You will also need to refresh the textures.

Thank you so much for your effort! My sims looked like pudding before I downloaded your mesh!

Sorry for the hiatus guys - I went to University and kind of lost access to my old computer where I kept all the modding tools.

SAM4 has been updated to version 2, with a new shape and everything and the long-requested teen compatibility. However, it no longer comes with a skin (it's unnecessary and a bit ugly anyway) and is now just a mesh mod. The major changes to the adult mesh are contouring around the hip bones and very slightly wider shoulders to compensate for not wearing clothing (shoulders tend to look a bit compressed in the default version, IMO).

What I really need to know is if it works with non-standard sims like aliens, werewolves, vampires etc (although who wants to see a zombie in a bathing suit?).

I'd like feedback or suggestions if you have any so I can fix issues before something horrible happens (like if I get a job) and I fall off the internet again. If you think any other meshes need tweaking (like say, the horrible plantsim clothes thing), let me know too.

I haven't checked, but I'm sure the mod works on them, since occult sims share the basic male mesh with any other non-occult male sim.

That said, this mod is basically an answered prayer! Won't be missing those clunky EA barrel bodies.

Also, did you update the mod for Late Night's muscle definition sliders? The previous version had an unsightly seam running down the hip with maximum muscle definition.

I'm looking into the seam issue right now, I think it's caused by using an old version of Postal to do all my importing/exporting (only the mesh was tweaked and so it must be a mapping/export problem), so I have to teach myself S3PE (I have 4 years to catch up on!). I'll update again if I manage to solve it.

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for updating this. Downloaded this back when it first came out and really wanted the teens to have this body too.

I really loved this, and now it won't work with the new patch update . Is there any way that anyone has got this to work with the new patch?

Thank you.

I'm having a little bit of trouble installing this one. When I extract the files I'm only getting 6 packages, which is less than what you listed. I'm getting
sam4v2ampendant.package
sam4v2ampuka.package
sam4v2amtopnudeburnt.package
sam4v2amtopnudelod1.package
sam4v2tmtopnude_burnt_lod1.package
sam4v2tmtopnude_lod1.package

I put these into the packages folder in the mod folder but the game doesn't seem to acknowledge them at all. I'm new to modding, but I put in one other mod the same way (the nointro mod) and it worked. I feel like what I'm doing wrong is obvious, can anyone help me out?

I would love to know how you did this. Muscular male legs (especially with a lot of custom slider changes) REALLY need some work too, and while I might be able to make the desired changes in the meshes myself, I wouldn't know how to make the game recognize them. Also, I too am a bit confused about which files I need to install, as their names seem a bit obscure to me. What do each of them do?
