I paid a visited to mod the Sims 2 today, I might start playing again; I haven’t fired up The Sims 2 in a while. Last time I was playing a farmers family living on their own veggie and fish but it went to slow so I quit for a while.
A search for ‘Aladdin’ reviled a recolor of the Jasmine wardrobe mesh by Denise I mentioned here. The recolor is done by Nina Aksoy and inspired by the costume Jasmine wears at Disneyland.
I never liked the way the costume designers at Disney parks converted draw Jasmine’s clothing to real clothing. As you know in the movie Jasmine wears a simple yet revealing harem outfit without fringe. In the parks it’s been ‘enchanted’ with a jewel and fringe. See picture.
Now, I understand there’s a difference between a drawing for a cartoon and a costume for a park. In the sense that the simpler a costume is drawn the quicker it can be draw and the cheaper it is. For one or two drawing that doesn’t matter but if it means a dozen people have to draw that costume design thousands of times it adds up. And in a park, especially on cast members that just wonder around the park portraying to be a character not having to perform stunts like in a show means a designer can enhance the design.
Still I feel that a face character in a park should mimic its animated counterpart as close as possible. In both acting and costume. But that’s my opinion.

Hello.
I just wanted to know if you know anyone who can make a Sims 2 colouring in page for my 9 year old daughter. She is obsessed with the Sims 2 and owns every expansion pack except The Sims 2 Bon Voyage and the new ones. I would really like to have a surprise for her on her birthday as she is going in to hospital soon. So if you know anyone or if you can make a colouring in page please contact me as soon as possible or send me the page via mail.
Regards,
Ashly Tancredi

On the site “modthesims2.com” you need to register your username with the site (which is free) and then search for “disney, Jasmine” in the -downloads- section, before all of this though, you need a mod/program downloader called “Q-Xpress installer” which you can find through the modthesims2 site. after you do all this, go to the “How do you download” link on the modthesims2 site, and you should be able to figure it out from there. If not, looking it up on google works just as well. Hope this helps.

I totally agree with you! Jasmine is supposed to wear a simple harem, instead of clothes with diamonds and stuff on it. I remember, when I was young, I went to Disney. And I saw her standing, in those clothes that looked like the clothes in the movie, only then much complicater. And I was the sort of kid, that didn’t like changes, and deffinitaly not when it came to my idol. It had to be exactly the same as in the movie. But I do like the costume in sims 2! It’s cool they made that!
