Good morning everyone! Unfortunately, I have to be the bearer of bad tidings once again. Seems to be a regular thing for me lately, actually. hehe

Here's the scoop: a friend of mine recently brought to my attention that some of my new meshes overwrite their Maxis counterparts. I have retested every new mesh and the Maxis items they were cloned from. Most of them are fine, that's the good news.

The bad news is that amongst the perpetrators are some popular downloads. (full list below) While they look and work fine in your games, the Maxis objects they were cloned from will not work until you have either deleted my meshes or replaced them with the fixed ones. :( And not to worry, no damage has been done to your game.

The reason this happens is because some items that allocate more than one tile in your game (such as beds and sofas), have more than one OBJD (object data). My fault here is that I only gave the main OBJD a new GUID, when I should have given each OBJD a new GUID. Because some of the OBJD's had the old GUIDS, they overwrote the Maxis items.

I have fixed this problem and retested everything. Problem solved! (big thanks to Spaik for helping me out with this!)

I am sooo sorry for this screw-up. I want to give you all a list of excuses but the truth of the matter is that I am new to meshing and I just didn't think to test this. I have been rightfully accused of being scatterbrained and this is no exception! lol

On a side note, I am busy in real life so I will be spending all of my allocated Sims time working on a side project & checking in here. You will not likely see anything new from me here on TSR for some time. (though I will continue filling requests when I can)

Again, my sincerest apologies. I hope you will bear with me while I am feeling my way through the meshing process. The good news is that now that I know this can happen, it won't happen again! ;)

Have a great day & take care.

That's okay! It can happen to anyone, and our mistakes help us learn for the future.

Good luck on the meshing and on your side project. \:\)

I can only agree with KalicoKat -that's why I told ya that-! Everyone is BEGINNING and learning at first with anything, no matter if it is in real life or even with meshing! And I know, you are talented! Bear hugs to you, Quengel \;\)
