WIP: Off-Duty Lounge

Hi there, Simmers!

It’s the weekend, and it’s time for another WIP post. The idea for this set is laundry-related, meant to create that messy, "off-duty" vibe with clothes thrown everywhere—on the floor, on the sofa, and in an overflowing laundry basket from the week, which we think would be a nice contrast to all the hard-surface gaming consoles that we did in Part 1 & Part 2. Oh, and an accent piece — the legendary lava lamp for a moody feel!

We have been super busy with this set, not gonna lie. Working with cloth is much more complicated than hard-surface items (but also more fun).

The most challenging pieces have to be the beanbag and the laundry basket. Since we want the folds and wrinkles to look as natural as possible, we used the cloth modifier to run a simulation in 3D. My PC fan was running like crazy, but the final result was worth it!

Then we transferred all the details to our low-poly version. Since that only transfers the textures and not the actual thickness of the fabric, it might still look a little flat—but nothing a normal map can’t fix lol.
