Purpose
1) To make available a decorative baby that can be freely included in uploaded lots.
2) To supply a variety of baby body recolours that celebrate the beautiful diversity of both human and Sim skintones.
3) To also include a selection of diaper recolours, with emphasis on pre-modern materials.

Contents
1) The baby is supplied in Resting, Sleeping, Sitting and Standing packages. The Resting pose is the Master mesh (sdBabyDollBG-Master.package), so it must be included in a Downloads folder for the other poses to work. Each of the four models is available from the General/Child catalogue for §42.
Like similar baby dolls, this object is derived from the Vincent's Sim Modder mesh introduced with Nightlife. The standing version is very similar to the original mesh, with minor fixes to get rid of holes and redundancies.
Viewing these dolls will build Charisma skill and Nature enthusiasm (if FreeTime, Apartment Life or Mansion & Garden is installed).
The doll may be placed on all standard surfaces, and can be put in a crib using "MoveObjects On" or the Apartment Life / Mansion & Garden adjustable height feature. This object is immune to theft, repossession, fire and snowfall.
2) The doll is distributed with 16 body skintone and eye colour combinations, including EA's built-in S1 default.
Black with Dark Brown Eyes, Blue with Zombie Eyes, Bronze with Werewolf Eyes, Dark with Dark Brown Eyes, Gold with Dark Brown Eyes, Green with Witch Eyes, Grey with Mannequin Eyes, Light with Light Blue Eyes, Olive with Light Brown Eyes, Pale with Vampire Eyes, S1 with Dark Blue Eyes (built-in default), S2 with Light Blue Eyes, S3 with Green Eyes, S4 with Brown Eyes, S5 with Alien Eyes, White with Grey-Blue Eyes
3) The download also includes 25 diaper colours, including EA's white plastic built-in default.
Beige Towel, Black Towel, Blue Plastic, Blue Towel, Brown Burlap, Brown Fur, Brown Towel, Cadet Towel, Dark Burlap, Gold Burlap, Gold Fur, Green Burlap, Green Towel, Grey Burlap, Grey Fur, Grey Plastic, Grey Towel, Light Burlap, Pink Plastic, Red Towel, Russet Burlap, Sheepskin, White Plastic (built-in default), White No Tape, White Towel

Unlike most of my decorative objects, the baby dolls are always available for autonomous viewing.
Critiquing or Viewing a doll increases Fun and builds Charisma Skill at a rate of 2/3 that of the Painting Easel. Once Fun is maximized the Sim will stop Viewing the object. Note that the more serious Sims will spend longer with a Viewable object than fun lovers.
If FreeTime, or Apartment Life is installed, critiquing or viewing will increase Nature Enthusiasm, and "View Many" will also be available, even on residential lots ("View Many" causes Sims to browse several decorative objects, one after the other). If the "View Many" Anywhere patch is installed, then the appreciation of these objects will be combined with that of other decor. The Sophie-David viewable objects will typically be favoured by Sims, because any time spent with EA's decorative objects will not be skill building. "View Many" is particularly useful for highly playful Sims because they tend to have short attention spans.
Note that a Sim's thought bubbles displayed during a View or Critique will be updated with default replacements if they are installed. Almighty Hat's and Sunni's defaults are particularly appropriate for pre-modern games.

Terms of Use

Polygon Counts
Baby Doll at Rest (sdBabyDollBG-Master): 1753 faces, 1210 vertices
Sleeping Baby Doll (sdBabyDollBG-Sleeping): 1753 faces, 1210 vertices
Sitting Baby Doll (sdBabyDollBG-Sitting): 1752 faces, 1210 vertices
Standing Baby Doll (sdBabyDollBG-Standing): 1753 faces, 1210 vertices
(The original Vincent's Sim Modder mesh has 1758 faces & 1218 vertices)
This is a new mesh, and means that it's a brand new self contained object that usually does not require a specific Pack (although this is possible depending on the type). It may have Recolours hosted on MTS - check below for more information.
