I'm thinking about trying my hand at meshing once I get the Sims2 basegame again.

Several questions:
-If I have inadvertantly created an "exploding" mesh, how much damage would be caused to the game?
-If the damaged caused by an "exploding" mesh did damage the game to the point of having to reinstall, would it affect any other users on the computer?
-What are the sympthoms of damage caused my "exploding" meshes?
-How can I tell if the damage is serious?


An exploding mesh will only affect the mesh/sim using it. I have never heard of anyone needing to reinstalling after an explosion, so no worries. I have had tons, (and I mean it) and so have other creators. The 'symtoms' are exactly what I post here (see post 11). The body is distorted and becuase the body is distorted, the animations are too. The only "seriousness" about a mesh explosion is how hard you can laugh at what you got. :) Dont be intimidated, its fun to do. Good luck!


And just so you feel better I will post another. This is what happend after I tried to use poser and import with meshtool.

Sam the T-man:
Apparently, exploding meshes can happen if you delete something you shouldn't do (i.e, the vertices, that kind of thing).

I got one too, something I was working on with BlooM's feet - note to all you meshers out there, remember when importing meshes to rename the groups properly:



He's working okay now ;)

Thats awesome, I want him for my game, just like that! :lol:

Thanks. :D
Now I'm a little less scared.

I have been working on an alpha mesh. I have the parts and comments in milkshape down, but I have been trying to give the recolor the transparency it need so if you want to black out the alpha it will dissapear on the body.


 I changed a setting in material defintion/ pluginview/cmaterialdefinition in simpe from SimSkin to SimSkinMaterial...it was probably a bad thing to touch :tard: this is what I got :laugh: :laugh:
