Those are the only ones I have noticed so far, but the majority of my CC hair came from those two places. Has anyone found toddler/children hair from another designer that works? I had to put my story on hiatus until I can find some and most the ones I find for that age group are all from those two or re-textures of their designs.

I have some child hairs that are still working, but asking me to find the creator let alone the package file is a lot to ask from me with my magnitude of mods...

Well, that's frustrating to hear. I was hoping the issue would resolve itself randomly like it does with Mac users who experience this problem. It's really too bad, she makes more custom hairs for that age group that any other creator. I feel sorry for her paying subscribers.

I haven't noticed an issue with Newsea child/toddler hair in my game. My Blue Book hairs are still showing up, and I think those are the only three CC hair creators for kids that I download from.

I wonder if there's a way to "convert" the hair, so to speak. If its the tool Peggy and Newsea use that makes the CC bork up with this EP, then what if someone edit and saves it using a different program? To just copy her creation and paste it into a new program. Maybe someone with those meshing tools would be willing to give it a try.

My logic for thinking that it might work:
There are certain hairs of peggy's that were "borked" when she released them (gaps, or bangs that sat too high, or it animated really weird), so someone else went out of their way to fix the mesh: that download still works for me.

I dreamed I was missing... you were so scared, but no one would listen, 'cause no one else cared. After my dreaming, I woke with this fear. What am I leaving when I'm done here?

Sounds like it would work...

EA doesn't have to support CC outside of the store, so they aren't going to release a patch to make peggy hairs work. It is up to us, the modders, to fix the problems.



ALSO, no response from the email. At this point, I'm not expecting one anymore.

Just thought I'd add in that it appears to not only be child/toddler hairs from Peggy that no longer show up in game but also any accesorries released pre-patch 1.26.

I had a few of her free necklaces and they're all vanished from the game since I patched.

I did notice that her latest donation gift hair child/toddler works just fine in a patched game. Somehow I doubt all the older hairs and accessories will be fixed. I'm currently in search of other CC alternatives for my kids and tots. If anyone knows of any good creators of kids/toddler hairs I'd appreciate the info

@ _Katami_Aiala_: You, my fine fellow, have just received +1 internetz.

My Anubis and Peggy hairs are broken. I'm agitated. I downloaded a Newsea hair, which worked, but Anubis/Peggy hairs are not showing in Create A Sim. =__=

This needs to be fixed!! D:

It sounds like the problem is the mesh, so any retextures of Peggy meshes will probably be broken. Nubie's other stuff should be fine though.

What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.

Well that stinks! Has anyone found an alternative, a new preferred hair mesher, perhaps? Just curious, and trying to revive this thread.

I just downloaded a lot of hair, trying to sort things out and get an appropriate naming system. I pulled my hair out for hours, trying to figure out why the hair was not showing in my game. Turns out, they were all Peggy child/toddler hairs. Anubis retextures of other hairs, like coolsims, work for my children and toddlers so whiterider is right, the other stuff is fine. It's just those that aren't working.

Ohh, I'm having this issue, too! I have almost all Nubie's Peggy's retextures, and none of them are showing up for children and toddlers!
NewSea hairs and all the others show up, though. It's just Peggy's. Nubie, also made a statement about the issue, here: clicky

Excuse for the bump, but the same went for the hair mesh used for this Samantha Parkington mod:
http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail...assetId=2130987

A guy made his own fork of the hair mesh, and it does show up ingame, probably since he used conventional tools for rigging it up instead of the "special" ones Peggy uses.

And speaking of tools, could it be that Peggy reverse-engineered (or have someone else R-E), or write their own custom toolchain using the stuff we gathered from reversing EA's code?

A lot of her adult hairs aren't working either,i just use newer hair of hers all the older ones are mostly broken now and it's really hard to go through and find the ones that do work.
