Did you drop your plans for modding thighs?
Yes. The nature of the SDT forums is that people drop in and make suggestions. Sometimes they stick around to assist; sometimes they just check back weekly to see whether it's complete; sometimes they get tired of waiting and never return. If I followed through on every project then I would end up releasing many mods which are downloaded and used by literally
zero people -- because the original guy has vanished and nobody else cared. Obviously, that would be an enormous waste of effort and it would cause rapid burn-out.
The
thigh-modding project looked like a quick FLA troubleshooting thing, so I tried to assist. Then it turned out that the person hadn't actually created anything and just wanted someone else to make the mod for him. And he wasn't interested in collaboration or feedback on any of the difficult bits. The project was never very "promising" - the custom scripts aren't portable or applicable to future projects, and the resulting body-shape was incompatible with most of the existing clothing. It wasn't really
possible for me to proceed solo, because the buttocks appeared distorted and unnatural to my eyes. My job is to produce animations with reasonable physicality, but I can't do that when the "correct" big-butt shape looks no better to me than an "incorrect" big-butt shape.
So yeah - I shelved the project.
I remember you mentioned you're going to make Pat's thigh mods skin tone and tan- compatible
That's valid. Pat never responded and he hasn't logged in to the new website, so we can proceed provisionally without his consent. Once I finish my current project, I'll run some final tests and then release the thighs file in its current state. I'll remind you, though, that there's nothing
new in that file. It's just slightly easier to use under some scenarios.
Edit: this is done. The mod can be found near the bottom of the first post, under the "Anatomy Modifications" heading. It can also be found on the Resource Manager.
