Title: Downloading a sim and custom content
Post by: Venbury on February 04, 2007, 11:50:06 am
I would like to download a Sim.  What is the easiest way to ensure you get everyone credited for the custom content you used.  Is there a place to find this because when you make the Sim in bodyshop, it only saves one file to the saved Sim folder, which makes it hard to know what you used and who created it.  Also, how does everone get the action shots they upload when the saved sims are just the body shop manequin shots.  Where are these action shots catured and stored at?  I looked in story editor but it seems that only my most recent 2-3 pics are retained here.

Thanks,
Ven

venbury - the best way is to use Sims2Pack Clean Installer to extract the files to a temporary folder, then use SimPE to scour the files for text that names the creator.  Since not all artists do this, it is not always possible to give proper credit, so tag those items as "unsigned artist" and when able include the text the artist inserted so : "my weird eyeshadow" by unsigned artist

alternately you can make a screencap of the S2PCI content viewer :
