FAQ

Joke Q: Where did you find that "enigma trapped inside a bolt of lightning" of a man?

A: Coolington's little joke - indulge him or no more houses! In Heaven of course.

Q: Why don't you allow paysites to use your content in screenshots?

A: It's as simple as this - they can download my content any time they wish, but I can't download theirs.

Therefore, they will not use it for advertising to ordinary simmers who have to pay for more stuff.

Q: Do you photoshop your pictures?

A: You're lucky they're cropped and presentable - I couldn't be bothered with photoshopping.

Apart from walls and floors, all of the pictures are from in my game.

I only just realised that my first set of bedding HERE included not only the bedding recolour, but also the same non-recolour of the colonial bed frame.

Over and over.

They're all changed and uploaded, so if you need to change them, the new zipfiles are up.

Dump your downloads into the requisite downloads folder, or subfolder, and it will overwrite the old ones.

They have exactly the same file names, so no need to go through and weed out the old ones.

So, I had a question in my guestbook ages ago, about how I did the double sided ceiling tiles. I found the information somewhere on MTS2 - this is not some secret thing I figured out by myself. I copied it into Notepad, so I don't know who wrote it. But thanks to them anyway - I appreciate it, whoever you are.

How to make Double Sided Floor tiles.

1. Open your finished floor tile in SimPE.
2. Click on the Material Definition (TXMT) resource in the top left pane, then again in the right pane.
3. In Plugin View, click on the cMaterialDefinition tab, and under Type, change "Floor" to StandardMaterial.
4. Still in Plugin View, click on the Properties tab.
5. Now you need to add two values. Click add twice. This will add two lines to your list of items in the left box. Click on the first : displaying there.
6. Over to the right, in the first box, type "stdMatCullMode" and in the box below type "none".
7. Now click on the second item that you added, the remaining : symbol. Again in the first box, type "stdMatLightingEnabled" and then in the box below type "0" - that's a zero, not the letter o.
Now below that, click sort List. This will put all the items within in the right order.
8. Click on the line starting with stdMatDiffCoef. Change the value for it to "1,1,1,1".
9. Click Commit, then OK. Then File - Save.

These instructions are just for single-tile floors - 2x2 and 5x5 floors are probably more complicated, but I wanted to just basic, quick instructions.
