Will you stop this! Now I have to download this, as well! Oh, so beautiful! I'm a great fan of yours, and when you get the entire lot series done, it should be the exact recreation of the palace.

Thank you so much, everyone. I'm so glad that you like this collection. Versailles is a beautiful place, so I really enjoy working with all of these images.

FranH & Vampire of Death, I'm looking forward to seeing this project completed as well but at the rate I'm going the Sims 3 may be out and I will have to start all over again.

Thanks Georgie! I appreciate you stopping by & your kind comments.

That is the actual ceiling as it looks in the lot. I managed to extend jgwhiteus' ceiling tile & the Inge Jones ceiling controller to work with a large 9x9 tile. This saved me from having to recolour & then place 81 individual tiles to create it. lol. When this 9x9 tile has been tested with a broader audience, I plan to update the set so that there are more choices for ceiling recolours. For those that are interested in more information about the ceiling follow the link in the first post.

Tatiana: just one simple request (ok, not so simple)..you like challenges, and you've taken on the big one-by redoing Versailles; Would you be interested in doing the Hall of Mirrors as a wall paper, or perhaps objects?
That one would be spectacular, to out do your most spectacular work. Also, you might consider doing another French chateau masterpiece-Malmaison, where Josephine lived after her divorce from Napoleon.
Just suggestions-I think you're probably pretty busy as it is. Louis XIV would be so proud of you!

Many thanks, Tatiana, for your wonderful job in recreating our past. I wish people realize how difficult is to make those authentic things.

Thanks Skye. I'm so glad that the ceiling MOD is working out for everyone!

Hey Fran, yes I already have the Hall of Mirrors designed as far as the walls go. I'm currently looking at meshing mirrors that are the exact reflections of the doors that are opposite them. Don't hold your breath, as my experience with mirror meshes has been about 50-50. lol. Thanks for the suggestions of Josephine's Malmasion. I love her story as well.

Nice to see you here, Von. Thanks!

Thank you, Linda. You always manage to brighten my day.

YVW nanisim. Thank you for your kind comments. I do find the simming of historical items very challenging & a lot of fun as well.

These are very beautiful; however, when downloaded they show up as grey in the game.
Have I done something wrong?

Hey there meroving32

I've been trying to figure out why that would happen. There is nothing technically special about this set, just decompress & place in your download folder. I haven't heard of any other problems so I'm hoping that if you try again it will work out for you. Good luck.

Thank you for your reply.
I keep doing as you said, however the results are sadly the same. I recently read that wallpapers must be sized at exactly 256X512 pixels (or multiples of these; the ratio must be the same) in order for them to work for Mac users (I have a mac.) Do you know if yours are sized in such a manner?
My greatest passion is everything about Versailles and Louis XIV, and I would hate to miss out on all of your exquisite creations.

Hello again, meroving

Well they say that you learn something new every day and after creating literally hundreds if not thousands of walls it is the first time I have heard about the Mac requirements.

I always create my walls at 256x768 because that is what they are resized to in the PC version (i.e. a 1:3 ratio). I found that if they are created at 256x512 (1:2) an inevitable "stretch" occurs distorting the design.

Sorry about that and thanks for the information.

Hi Tatiana,I am absolutely stoked with this! I tried to get the lot from your creators forum but it is too large and the server does not support the resume download function so it keeps dropping out at 70percent. Anyway, since this wall set is here now, I was hoping you have the ceiling tiles somewhere separately for download? Many thanks!!
