I created a pink version of the statue. It's not a recolor but has it's own gui. I didn't actually create this by cloning a maxis item..it has a default to fall back to but that item couldn't be animated so I had to pretty much create it with bits and pieces. I wasn't able to get it to work as a recolorable item.
This creation was requested by my dear friend Carolus and I want to thank him for helping with testing and for all his valuable input.
I have an animated elephant statue and a rideable version. I did both versions for those who don't care for the rideable option. My leg movements are still have a glide effect...I'm sorry I'm just not able to get rid of this.
Sims will sometimes ride the wrong end of the elephant or sideways. It depends on the position of your lot as to the direction you have to face the elephant to have the sims ride it properly. Sorry this is also something I've had a difficult time figureing out.
Both versions only actually use one tile as I've found creating animations for more than one tile causes problems. I also wanted to find how to make them visible from the neighborhood I cloned one of my hay stacks that is visible. But my Elephant isn't visible...my haystack is. Does anyone know the setting to do this?
Note: Both versions use the same sound file so I've posted that seperate. You will need this if you want the sounds for either version.
Both have 3 animations, the statue version has view option all of which give fun to your Sims. The rideable version give body skills, fitness, and fun.
Statue version is found under Deco/Statues for $1000.
Rideable version is found under Knowledge/Exercise $1500.
These should work for Base game and any combination of EP's.
Both versions:
Poly count is 4372.
Enjoy!

About Me
I personally don't agree with personal policies and would very much like to see all policies be controlled by the board that items are posted on. It would make life so much easier for everyone. It would also eliminate the selfish/self center creators that have done so much harm to this caring and sharing community. Not one creator that I know of is able to do these things without the help of Maxis, Simpe, SimPE plugins, CEP and all the great tutorials available.
Just in case someone wants to know my feelings on it...it is as follows:
You may use my creations freely. The only request I have is that you do not claim them as your own and PLEASE do not post on pay sites.
You may include them with you lot creations if you so desire. :)
All items are created with Maxis code, and SimPE according to the terms of use Maxis owns all rights to this code.
Most of my meshes come from remeshing maxis items or can be found in the 3d mesh of unknown authors. If you wish to remesh any of my meshes you are free to do so. You may also include them with your recolors.
I do this strickly for fun. If you find anything wrong with my creations please let me know and I'll fix them if I capable of doing so or will at least post the problems found. I don't want to post junk!
