Unused Essences - Part 2

As I mentioned at the beginning of Part 1. I originally wanted to discuss everything in only one post, but because I hit the 30 image limit. I had to split it into two.

If you haven't yet, you can read Part 1 right here.

So without further fanfare, here's the rest. Below the cut again.

It’s fish. Just fish

Now this is where the unused essences start to get… even less complete than what we have seen this far. While there is a flair model leftover, and even a palette of paints. That palette is incomplete, It has a patterned paint swatch, but only one. The second pattern swatch is black, pure complete blackness. And the rest are pure white like the other essences we have discussed.

Now while I have been showing a render of the swatches up to this point, I do think it is worth showing how it looks in-game as well. Because what would be the second patterned swatch is instead completely pitch black.

It’s also worth mentioning that the one (1) swatch we do have is very similar to the rainbow trout swatch visible in-game. In-fact they are virtually identical to one another.

Sad Bear is an interesting case, while every essence that we have looked at so far has had some paints and text tied to it, this one does not. The only thing that remains is this very cute looking flair model.

We don’t know exactly what this would have been. It’s possible that this was just an earlier form of the final sad essence, but we don’t have any definitive evidence, leaving this one as a bit of a mystery.

Burn is another even more interesting one, and is more mysterious than Sad Bear. 

This one is unique in that it does not have any leftover text, or even a flair model, but it does have two full pattern swatches. But this is even more interesting, with everything discussed before, the Material Sets that allow the paints to appear in-game could be brute forced and loaded in the PC version with no problems, this however cannot.

As a result, whether or not there are any flat paints to accompany the palette is completely unknown.

Ok hear me out on this one.

This last one is just the Cherry Blossom essence. Except under the name of Apple Blossom. Every bit of text, every paint swatch, every everything is the exact same as the final Cherry Blossom, but with ‘appleblossom’ as its internal name. However in the actual text that is displayed in-game, it is still referred to as Cherry Blossom.

Interestingly, while the duplicate textures remain in the game’s files. The material set to actually make them appear in-game seems to no longer exist. Creating another Burn essence situation, where they can’t be seen in-game.

Although it would probably just be a duplicate of the Cherry Blossom’s set as well.

It is worth noting that there are also a few other models in the game files bearing the Apple Blossom name, but none of them follow the standard convention for essence models which is ‘flairEssenceName’, but they do at least provide an alternative idea of what an Apple Blossom essence could have looked like.

And with that, these have been almost all of the unused essences in MySims. But believe it or not, there are still more unused essences to talk about! A whopping 27 that I could find at the time I’m writing this.

However they are… much less interesting compared to the ones discussed today. These have all had some kind of interesting leftover attached to them, whether that’s a model, textures, or text. But these remaining essences on the other hand…

Are comprised entirely out of very basic placeholder assets, which make them not very interesting to look at in comparison.

I do want to talk about them at some point in the near future though, and I can say with certainty that it will be before 2032!

Well, that was a lot harder than I thought it would be, plus had to take a sick baby to the doc ('s all fine, just one of those things babies get all too often). But, there's a mod that lets Mechi and Kawhu share a room of they want to do that! Just select a bed and mark it as a shared bedroom.

Steam version and offline. I, uh, I hope those links make it thru Tumblr's ask?

If you would like, the mod does need something: a pair of icons for a shared room and a barrack/single room. I was thinking two people-figured together for the shared room and ...dunno for a regular room? If you wanted to do something for those, I would pop them in (I am not remotely skilled as an artist!)

Happy new year, thanks for sharing all the fun doodles in addition to the story!

This is the greatest New Year's surprise I could have ever ever ever wished for! You are the best! I love it so much! Mechi and Kwahu are going to have twin sleepovers every single night forever.

Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️

It's so cool that I had to brag to my mum about it!

I hope baby is okay, and that you have the most incredible 2025 ❤️

I felt like a waste to hop in to the next sketchbook without even completing all of the pages of he previous one so I just drew a bunch on Tallorans. The last one is definitely my favorite:)

Once I do get a new sketchbook tho I'm gonna immediately start drawing the other personnel(and scps as well) and try to get a solid design for all of them AND ESPECIALLY DRAVEN cuz when I looked back at the art I posted for pride month, the designs honestly looked so basic and horrible I am genuinely sorry that y'all had to see that💀💀💀

Regency Era Poll 2

Yep okay I am really excited about this, I'm gonna write it! Question though uh...... idk what to do with the James/Lily/Regulus situation. So here's the poll. If it's Jily I'm gonna do the classic she hates him then she falls harder, if it's Jegulus I'm gonna do a fun angst thing, and I kind of feel like Jily fits better into the story but like Jegulus yk?

ALSO IF I DID JILY I would do Regulus as trans/ace I think (he's for sure trans.)
