Title: Doors & Window Recolors
Post by: michelle on September 07, 2010, 08:53:20 am
Hi, this is probably too simple a request for creators, but i'm really hoping someone will be kind enough to do it for me.

I've made a block of povo houses that feature the ValueWood door and archway, the Breeze-easy windows and the Wachowt door. I'm hoping someone would make just one matching recolor for these items in a grungy grey or cream tone.

Anyways, i hope everyone's having fun with thier simmies!

If they're maxis, you might find recolors at piggis-sims (http://www.piggis-sims.net/). Plenty of different maxis recolors there.

I recommend TabbyLou at TSR: http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/TabbyLou/ There's a pale wood on the Mission Match sets and white as a separate set.

You know, if she's requesting it here, she might not want to wade into the cesspool that is TSR...

That's why I gave her a fairly specific link, so she can just grab and leave.

Thing is, we don't like to link to them at all if it can be avoided because that is providing advertising for an unethical site. If they are pay items, you are also required to post a Booty link as an alternative.

I did find piggis-sims today - great recolors btw if anyone else is looking for maxis recolor stuff, she has a huge collection - and started to download some stuff, but i would have to download all the large sets to get the single four recolors and i'm trying to keep my dl folder as slim as possible as my computer's kind of fed up with expansion packs and big download folders. So i thought i would ask here. But thankyou for the suggies!

The files are named after the sets, but you could go through the files with the clean installer and sort out the recolors you don't want. Some sets are also named with colors.

The tabbylou stuff at TSR seems to be free, but you can't download unless you log in...  :-\
TSR even switched off the search function unless you're logged in, which is really annoying. I find myself using that site less and less. Haven't looked for updates for several months now.

Just my belief, theraven, but that site isn't worth the time it would take to find anything. And Michelle, just give me some time to dig out my textures and I'll see what I can bang out for you today, m'kay?

ETA: I'm on my way ingame to test and take shots to see how they turned out, I do hope you'll like them.

ETA 2: Done and up, find them here (http://www.insimenator.org/index.php?topic=111047.new#new).
