Title: Object help!! Post by: wickedsims_93 on October 05, 2008, 08:19:08 pm no the file they sent me was an .object file and I want it to be a package.
Title: Object help!! Post by: Squinge on October 05, 2008, 08:20:50 pm ok was it supposed to be for TS2? lol
Title: Object help!! Post by: wickedsims_93 on October 05, 2008, 08:28:04 pm no i dont think so.
Title: Object help!! Post by: Squinge on October 05, 2008, 08:33:17 pm ok so why do you want to put it in your game? :P lol
Title: Object help!! Post by: wickedsims_93 on October 05, 2008, 08:36:58 pm OK...Im confused, Its a 3d .object file and i wanted to put it in my game because i want it in my game. but I cant put it in my game because its a .object file not a .package file
Title: Object help!! Post by: Squinge on October 05, 2008, 08:38:42 pm it won't work like that someone would need to hack an existing object & use that file to replace an existing mesh:)
Title: Object help!! Post by: wickedsims_93 on October 05, 2008, 08:43:44 pm huh? I dont understand what your saying.:smt120
Title: Object help!! Post by: chemcourt on October 05, 2008, 08:47:23 pm Ok, hi there. :) Do you have a picture of the object? If you could show a picture of the object, I can probably explain more easily what you need to do to get it to work in the game.
Title: Object help!! Post by: wickedsims_93 on October 05, 2008, 08:50:01 pm ok! thanks!
its the .obj file in milkshape. Title: Object help!! Post by: chemcourt on October 05, 2008, 08:54:06 pm Ok. So it's a sign. Now is this sign supposed to be umm... neighborhood decoration, or something that you're putting on a playable lot?
Title: Object help!! Post by: wickedsims_93 on October 05, 2008, 08:57:04 pm I want to put it on a playable lot. :)
Title: Object help!! Post by: chemcourt on October 05, 2008, 09:02:55 pm Ok. Well, in order for that to work with the sims 2, what you have to do (as squinge was saying before.) is get an already existing object from the game, and use that file to replace an existing mesh.
Basically, you want the sign as a decorative object on a lot. So you'd need to take an already in existence object. (say, a vase.) and hack that object, replace the mesh, with the files from your object. and then you know. you've turned your sign into a package file. This is of course the excessively dumbed down way to explain it. Mostly cause I'm not a mesher... and any more technical than that I'm going to confuse myself. But what you need is a mesher type hacking into stuff person. Title: Object help!! Post by: wickedsims_93 on October 05, 2008, 09:05:35 pm oh ok thank you!
