(this was x-posted from tumblr)
This skin defeated me, white flag waving surrender and all. I made it into a skintone, but the way that skins work meant the zombie details were either very washed out, or far too contrast-y and dark.
So, what I ended up doing was this: I let the details stay fairly faint on the skintone version, and made an additional skin detail with the same texture which brings out the zombie features and adds in the Maxis-y look I was going for. It’s not perfect, and it’s got some pixelation here and there due to having to uprez the textures, but it’s good enough for me.
This download contains three files; a nondefault skin, a default skin (which replaces the EA blue one), and a skin detail intended to work in tandem with the skintone. The skin detail is available in all categories, delete whichever ones you don’t want. It works for CU-EU, has custom thumbnails, and details are the same between both genders.
The nondefault shouldn’t spawn on your townies, I’m not 100% sure but I didn’t see it pop up during testing. In any case, let me know right away if you find any bugs, and enjoy!
