Posted by cyclonesue on Jun 23, 2009• Great news for Sims3 lot uploaders who use custom textures!
With the help of beta testers here (thank-you to all involved), availability of empty games with and without Riverview installed and other entities, I've been testing custom patterns in uploaded lots. Each lot was built and processed for sharing in the normal way (clicked the 'share' button for the lot in Edit Town, then collect the Sims3Pack from the Export folder).
The results are fantastic news!
- EA-modified patterns package and install perfectly (of course)
- Custom (made-from-scratch) patterns package and install too - provided they're Sims3Pack-installed patterns*
- Custom patterns installed with a lot add themselves to the downloader's Create-A-Style tool, making them fully reusable
- As an additional bonus, the EA-made paving slab that came with Riverview neighbourhood packages and installs in a non-Riverview game too!
* Note: we have ONLY tested patterns made as Sims3Pack files with the TSR Workshop. We have tried a non-Sims3Pack file (a .package file) pattern made with another tool and the .package file did not install with the lot. Therefore, these results can only apply to Workshop-made Sims3Packs for now.
