Title: 3 Maxis-match EKTORP seating recolours Post by: Menaceman44 on October 09, 2008, 01:07:14 pm Hello!
I was miffed that EA/Maxis decided not to make all of the EKTORP seating in the same colours so I recoloured the EKTORP armchair and loveseat in the sofa colours that were missing. The colours I've done are white, beige and striped. (http://www.insimenator.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=96314.0;attach=101791) Now you can have fully matching livingrooms that are properly co-ordinated. Known Issue: If you don't or can't play your game with maximum texture detail then the striped recolour may look blocky and blurry. I've tried my best to eliminate the problem but SimPE seems to compress the image just a bit too much on reimport even when using the 'Build DXT' option. This doesn't effect the plain recolours though. I hope you enjoy them in game. IKEA stuff is required for these to show. Please don't upload elsewhere unless you include them with an uploaded lot to a FREE site. Then just link back here please.

Now I am miffed that EA did not include the ottoman, so I could make my living room. Thanks for these, I really enjoy the comfy coushyness of my loveseat. I can share that with my sims now.
