Learning how to convert TS2 objects to TS3

Date Posted: 8th Feb 2011 at 5:46 PM

I've been busy learning how to convert TS2 objects to TS3. I'm almost done with Macarossi's Desert Landscape conversion (the whole set) and am in the process of preparing it for upload moderation.

Because it took me a couple of months to figure out how to do it all well, using bits and pieces from several tutorials and creator conversation, I decided to save other creators that research time. So, I made a tutorial specifically for converting TS2 plants to TS3.

The steps may work for other object types too, but I haven't investigated that process yet. So, in a couple of weeks, you'll be able to download desert plants for TS3!


Update: 2-14-2011 The set is now in moderation, so baring major fixes, you should be able to download it in a week or so...

Computer keeps dying. *grrr*

Hi,

I've not been here very much lately because I have had a lot of computer problems with my home computer. Lacking spare parts, I am trying to find out what keeps dying and crashing my computer. lol Is it RAM? Video Memory? Hard drive?, Motherboard? Anyway the crashes makes it difficult to run all my mod apps so I haven't done anything much on it at all. It's no fun to get your sleeves rolled up to have your computer crash and then run checkdisk. *grrrr*

I am dabbling in taking requests! EEK!

Date Posted: 27th Feb 2010 at 5:34 AM

[B]My QUEUE is FULL - Temporary halt to requests[/B]

I can't take any more requests until I finish what I've already accepted.
There are several that I have not had a chance to post here - I think 4 to 5 others, I'll get them posted after I upgrade my home computer.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Uh.. Maybe I've invited more adventure than I can handle?

I went and volunteered to make TS2 stuff for people. Oh-Noze! lol. Anyway, I need to get back into making stuff again. My specs are on the Creator's who take requests page.

I decided than rather than clutter that page up that I'll post the queue I've agreed to here so you can see where I am on the requests I've accepted and also so you can see the kinds of things I'm working on. I've had more requests than these, but I am only posting the ones that fulfilled my required shopping lists.

The people who get their requests in my queue are the ones who've given me everything I've asked for and need to create their stufz. I place them in the order received.
===================================

DONE - 1: SIM - "Sim of Ninja Assassin Asian star Rain"? (Never heard of him, which is WHY I need front and side views.)
My sim doesn't really look like the person but It's the best I can do. I am not a texture artist so I don't have the skill to photoshop his face texture.

Sizz-New mesh hair 'Pungback' hair #8
http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=261074...the hair num. 008

I did not upload this sim to MTS because MTS is OD'd on Sims. I put it on mediafire for the requestor.


==============================================

2: Clothing and maybe a Sim - BRUCE LEE's GI and assorted nunchucks, stars objects and other Dojo type stuff. I'll only do Bruce if I can muscle up a sim well enough to do him justice.

But I will not be doing Chuck Norris

================================================

3: Long sweater over shorts -

==================================================

4: Assorted vintage girls clothing. Not sure which one I'll work on first. Probably the 1890's pinafore with straw hat first...


===================================================

5: Victorian Writing Desk


====================================================

6: Some totally WHACKO, hip-high b!tch boots. These are not normally something I would consider but they made me laugh. This will be an outfit. We'll see if I can get those heels so high and shrink up the legs or something..



=====================================================

7: NYPD Uniforms



=======================================================

8: 'Nik' from America's Next Top Model - Cycle 5


This is the last sim I will attempt, mainly because I am not very good at it and I'd rather make clothes or furniture, etc.

=======================================================

I'm going to be a gramma!

Date Posted: 24th May 2009 at 5:27 AM

I'm going to be a gramma sometime in July! I've been busy making stuff for my grandson so that's why you haven't seen me around much lately. Well making stuff in between other real life requirements like working, cooking, cleaning house all that kinda stufz.

Waiting on Sims3 just around the corner now.

AACK! We are all getting so excited about our soon to be published top secret!

AACK! We are all getting so excited about our soon to be published top secret that it's getting to be a problem to prevent some of us (me ) from blabbing too soon about it!

Such a difficult task to sit quietly and pretend like as if one of most fabulous themes ever created is not about to dawn on the Sims community!

Thanks for your good wishes. :0)

Thanks to all the people who've been so kind and have wished us well. I appreciate your support and good thoughts. My hubby is pretty much back to normal and is working full time again. So, now that the killer heat of summer is passing, my brain is starting to work again.

I am making a very high-poly, but I think it's gorgeous, item for the theme project... After I finish that, I'll strip off the high poly part and make a simpler version.. That's all the hint you'll get.

Doncha just love teasers? :D

Been gone mostly....

Date Posted: 21st Jul 2008 at 9:33 PM

Sorry not to have been participating much on this site for the last few months... I've been gone mostly this spring. My husband has been seriously ill - in and out of the hospital and the emergency room several times, so I have not done much as far as creating content or working on themes, etc. However! He is on the mend and may be able to go back to work soon. :0)

In 'manic happy' mode, I have ambitiously started working on a mesh set for the High Rollers theme. Of course, no one can know what it is until it's published. Echo is rumoring that maybe in August we'll start tidying up and getting ready to publish... But that's her call. We may all whine and say "We aren't quite finished yet!" :p

Hhmmm.. Echo is starting up a High Rollers Theme. I'm IN!

Date Posted: 20th Nov 2007 at 10:46 PM

Hhmmm.. Echo is starting up a 'High Rollers' Theme proposal. I've just signed up! This is right up my alley. I get to play and work with experienced modders and maybe learn how to do basic bhav's and animations. Then I can put all this cool Vegas stuff into my future N8iveSims casinos and other lots!

lol.. I'm having nightmares already of a "24 hour, Dancing Elvis marriage parlor"! Find a way to incorporate Echo's rollercoaster ride through Elvis's marriage parlor.. ahahahaha madness!

What fun!

Been gone for most of the summer

Date Posted: 5th Nov 2007 at 8:58 PM

HI I've been gone for most of the summer and came back to find a game that would not open. So.... I uninstalled everything, and managed to reinstall it again (after several attempts.) Finally got it working and added Bon Voyage..

Now, I am working on my TOP SECRET contest entry for the November fairytale theme.

We have submitted our first Mod Group theme for publication.

Date Posted: 23rd Apr 2007 at 7:57 PM

Well, We've finally submitted our theme for approval. Now all we have to do is wait.

There is a lot more content that we have in the works for the Seminole theme but we were dragging out the publication date so we decided to publish and post the other items as they become available.

The next nation in our lineup are the Nez Perce. Expect cool outfits, maybe a tipi or two and lots of APPALOOSAS! :D

If you are interested in joining our project, just drop us a line and post a sample of your work and ideas and let us take a look at it. :D
