Collection Files - Updated & Added

I decided I wasn't happy with the way I'd done collection files for some of my mesh sets so I've redone them with a much more standardised approach to hopefully make them easier to deal with and recognisable. I also decided to add a community collection file to one of the sets that only had a residential collection file, just to make things easier for everyone.

Download the new versions here: Park Chess Set and Garden & Farm Tools Set.

New Stuff

I have been back in Australia for a week now - my trip to China was fantastic! Good news! I have a lot of new collections in the building process that should be released over the next couple of weeks including LOTS of eyeshadow sets. I hope you will enjoy them and I look forward to your comments :-)

New to the SA family!

Feels like I won a grammy award..I would like to thank everyone for the warm Welcome to the SA family and for your continued support into making the position. I was surprised when I came back online from finishing a TSR challenge and putting the finishing touches on a new house and prepare it for upload to see I had made it this far. I would also like to thank the simmers and the community who download my houses and the odds ~n~ ends creations I've done even though I have fun and enjoy building the homes for the sims to live in more. Well, that's it for now and I hope to add more to my blog soon..Thank you again and Happy Simming, Chris :)

Meshing? Me?

Ok, still in the process of learning, and don't know if I'll ever get there, but hey, if I don't try, I'll never know, right ;)

Tried a few things...






It's still like, out there, in 3D space :D Have no idea yet how to texture and import in the game. Lets keep em crossed ;)

Rug Links

Yep again LOL

Thank you Thank you Thank you TSR you gave me my edit button back LOL


dgandy the rug mesh artist uploaded her rug mesh here so I have linked too that one, no more running round the net to get the mesh and while your grabbing the rug mesh check out her other stuff

Working on a bathroom

Hey folks! :)

I'm working on a new bathroom right now. All meshes (except a plant I think of) are ready to be imported into the game... the following I already imported. :D The sink was quite a challenge for me so far. :P Not working shadows, wrong animations etc. but it's all fixed now. I also think of adding a slot on the lower tray so you can place objects on it.



Hope you like it so far. ;)

Best regards,
Murano

Collection files

I've included collection files, both residential and community, into many of my build sets. Next time you download one of those sets, keep an eye on collection files, they should be placed into your "The Sims 2Collections" folder. All collection files come with my own custom icons. I hope to add collections to some other of my sets soon as well.

Stories ...

Here I have a shiny new minisite and blog � and it occurred to me that I don�t have anything for the �stories� section since I write stories in the forums and not as photo stories. I�ve always loved the idea of setting stories to music and since Photobucket has that new feature � I thought it�d be fun to make a photo video of my forum stories. The effect is not the same as an actual video, I know, but in between writing (and playing), recoloring and RL stuff, I just haven�t much time to actually shoot and edit a video for now�although I would like to one day. =)

The photo video for the Legacy is here and the actual story is here: The Hunter Legacy.

So You Want To Be A Sim tells the story of a Sims player who wakes up one day and finds herself in the game. The photo video is here.

I have tried to tell a story with the photo videos in themselves but nothing that would serve as spoilers if you plan to read the stories. And if you have already read the stories, the videos are more of like a �walk along memory lane.�

Lastly, the Legacy would probably return with new updates sometime in late October since I�m working more on So You Want for now and another set of recolors. Watch this page for news on update status.

Becoming Select Artist :-)

I had another hard day at work. I also have very difficult days in my private life. I didn't have too many reasons for smile in these days but today...

I came back from work, made dinner for family and then loggen here in...

Something was different. I had no advertisement, somebody gave me many Kudos points (now I know that this was a bonus for becoming SA). 'What's going on?' - I thought.

Then I saw my Kudos Table. OMG! Is this truth?

You can read in my profile description that it was my dream. I didn't believe I could became SA, because I didn't have a faith in my talent (do I really have a talent?)...

Thank you all. I can't remember all your names. I'm still shocked and surprised. But I love ya all - TSR admins, TSR creators and all users who downloaded my stuff.

I make it for you and for smiles on your faces :D

CONGRATULATIONS to other new Select Artists :) I was sure all of you will get this title :D

God bless you and... bless Andy (Tiko - I'm still crossing my fingers)

Vacation

Hello, my friends! First of all I'd like to say "Thank you!" For all your great comments, you left on my creations! I'm very appreciate it! And the second - don't lose me! I'm going on vacation!

See you soon!
