Casanova Cave Open Robe + Swatches
🕑 Added 2025-01-19 17:06:00 +0000 UTCI almost didn't complete this project because I ran into some issues, but earlier this month I worked on a few projects that I couldn't finish and it frustrated me to no end. So I decided to forge ahead and put this item out in an "imperfect" state.
I really like the new robe that comes with the Casanova Cave kit, but as always, their open robes are tied to clothing for the lower half. So I decided to remove the boxers that come with the robe and convert it into a top so you can pair it with any bottom (or nothing at all).
The issue I ran into is that the robe's texture takes up a lot of space. In order to convert the robe from a full body outfit to a top, I had to move parts of the texture to the UV space that hats use, which means this robe top is incompatible with hats. I really hate having to do this because I try to make my content work the same way Maxis content does, but I wanted the robe as a top and I figure most sims won't be wearing hats and sleepwear at the same time.
The robe is available in the original 12 Maxis swatches, plus an additional 6 swatches I created, for a total of 18 swatches. It's categorized as Sleep and can be found in the Jackets submenu. It's available for masculine-framed sims.
I've also made my new swatches available for the original robe/boxers set that comes with the kit.
You shouldn't need the kit to use the open standalone version of the robe, but you will need the kit if you want to use the extra swatches for the robe/boxers.
NOTES:
1) The robe is not compatible with hats. If you use a hat and the robe, the robe's texture will bleed onto the hat and it will look horrible - you can see an example of the texture issue in the previews above. There are no problems with hair or any other accessories (such as glasses, necklaces, etc).
2) The robe can be worn with any lower clothing, but you may experience clipping. The robe is pretty snug to the body, so bulkier meshes may cause some clipping. The robe should pair well with nude bottoms and most underwear.
3) Extreme positions may cause some distortion. I've tried to weight the robe so it moves well with the body, but in some poses or animations you may see a bit of clipping.
Enjoy!

Hey! The one on the left is a design that I recently added to my body hair; the one on the right was added last month. You can grab the body hair file here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/male-body-hair-81924268
