Default Any way to make in-game bedding repo from Jonesi BB
I don't know if this is possible, but I was wondering if anyone had tinkered in the realm of possibly doing a repository of the in-game Maxis bedding from the Jonesi bed blanket. I've not found anything online about it and have Jonesi blankets repoed to the in game bedding but I was wondering if it could be done the other way around. Since I've not found anything on it after searching for quite some time, it may be a mute question but I'm wanting to know if anyone else might have come up with something.

What a wonderful day in the neighborhood!

There are two main issues with the ingame bedding:

1: It's partially morphed, and the mesh usually throws errors in Milkshape when trying to import it in, so remapping it is a bit of an issue. I think it's the pillows spesifically that causes the errors (too many morph states or some such).

2: Repoing it to Jonesi repos the whole bedding item (pillows, blanket, mattress, etc.), so all of it will have the same pattern. You can't have some in a plain color (mattress) and the rest (pillows, blanket) in a Jonesi pattern. One potential alternative is to have a non-recolorable subset for the mattress (say, white), and the rest repo'd to Jonesi, but again - it requires remapping.

The only ones I can remember having modified bedding successfully is Rebecah (made it shorter for toddler beds), and Davina (Made animated bedding without pillows) https://davinaojeda.tumblr.com/post...tured-moonlight.

Davina did however make some Jonesi-bedding animated/usable in the link above, if that helps (scroll down, it's near the bottom). It's not quite the same, but possibly close enough?

Thank you for the explanation simmer22. That makes sense; I figured it would be something convoluted like that to do. And thank you for the link! I went to a search link for the animated bedding but it didn't work, must have been old/broken. I would like to try those Jonesi slaves. I've recently been gleaning as much Jonesi slaved objects as I can. I didn't in the past but wanted to be able to cut down size of my downloads folder, been working on it for months as it was over 12 GIGS and I finally got it under but it's a work in progress. It's a conundrum, so many people love making beautiful/helpful stuff for the game, so many pretties! I've also been gleaning a bunch of Jonesi BB recolors and I was able to get my blanket recolors to a set of 100 at average file size each of under 30 KBs by compressorizing the files. I didn't think that could be done for a while because I had downloaded a lot of those recolors that even after they were compressed were still quite large.

Anyway, thanks a bunch!

What a wonderful day in the neighborhood!

There are a lot of items repo'd to the bedding, too. Items repo'd to the crib bedding is also common.
I like a bit of both, since they have multiple uses each - and they can be mix-and-matchable.

Speaking of cribs, here's a maxis-match crib set repo'd to Jonesi's bedding (plus some neat recolors), if you need that:

Here's also a bunch of repo'd meshes:

Thanks simmer22. I found those yesterday! I appreciate your letting me know though. Those took a lot of searches to find and I had to go thru a few pages to find the link in the search.

What a wonderful day in the neighborhood!
